Rock guitarist, conservative activist and Mitt Romney supporter Ted Nugent says he stands by his provocative rant against the Obama administration at last weekend’s National Rifle Association convention, despite mounting pressure from Democrats and an investigation by the Secret Service.
“I spoke at the NRA and I will stand by my speech. It was 100 percent positive,” Nugent told the Dana Loesch radio show today. “It’s about we the people taking back our American dream from the corrupt monsters in the federal government under this administration and the communist czars he’s appointed.”
Nugent told a crowd of convention-goers that “if Barack Obama becomes the president in November, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year.”
“If you can’t go home and get everybody in your lives to clean house in this vile, evil, America-hating administration, I don’t even know what you’re made of,” he said at the NRA.
Democrats launched a social media and web video campaign demanding that Nugent retract his statements and Mitt Romney, whom Nugent has endorsed and stumped for, deliver a public rebuke. Romney has not commented.
The Secret Service told ABC News it is aware of Nugent’s comments and conducting “the appropriate follow-up” given the potentially threatening nature of the remarks.
“See, I’m a black Jew at a Nazi-Klan rally, and there are some power-abusing corrupt monsters in our federal government that despise me because I have the audacity to speak the truth to identify the violations of our government, particularly Eric Holder and the president and Tim Geithner, ad nauseum,” Nugent told Loesch.
“I have never in my life threatened anyone’s life. I’m incapable of threatening anyone’s life. Because I’m about positive change, my entire speech, all my articles,” he later added.

Better Off Ted!
I am Ted!
“Mitt Romney believes everyone needs to be civil,” ...And I believe all politicians need to be ignorant and PUSSIES.
So, what did he say that was so vile that mitwit needs to issue a public rebuke?
LOL!!
Wild? No... but ill-tempered, maybe.
I knew it would happen; in fact, I was wondering yesterday why Romney hadn't done it right away. Mr. "I'm-Not-Going-To-Attack-Obama" doesn't even know what to make of someone like Ted Nugent. And as much as I like Ted, it serves him right for stumping for that idiot.
You have to wonder who these people are that create autocorrect knowing that it does not work and then release it.
They must have stock in damnyouautocorrect.com.
Rock on, Ted.
I’m still wondering how he became such a good shot with only one eye.
Bump
Who can take this pinhead seriously when he supports Romney, a known gun-grabber that bans guns?
