Ted NUGENT you mean!

[Petronski]

I can sure see how he has come to find Clinton to be a role model:

But at age 12, he learned his father was baseball pitcher Tug McGraw, who had had a brief affair with his mother.

[Vision]

I find this hard to believe. What a letdown. He must be so full of himself that he doesn't pay attention to politics much.

[spectre]

He can run for whatever he wants and I could give a care less...He can say that BJ Clinton is the best there was and then start to worry about the big creep slobbering all over his beautiful wife..

But if he starts trashing George Bush, then I'll bust up his CD's and tune him out.

Please Faith...be quiet.. be very quiet...

No way FDR was, then again he was a democrat in name only.

[Alberta's Child]

Yep -- that's usually the way it works.

Of course, nothing beats static-filled country music on the AM dial somewhere out on the Great Plains, or in the foothills of Alberta!

[cajun-jack]

the old chevy he was conceived in must have had a leaky exhaust. Must have made mom kinda "giddy".

I always thought "Tug" was famous for a throwing a knuckleball, but it appears he threw mom a curve!!!

[Smedley]

Yes! apparently in the late 1970s VCRs went for $1,000-$2,000

Just what every mother holding down three jobs needs to be buying.

[TADSLOS]

How can an indian outlaw be legally qualified to hold office?

But at age 12, he learned his father was baseball pitcher Tug McGraw, who had had a brief affair with his mother.

"Brief" meaning less than 15 minutes.

[Steveone]

Yeah I know it's Bush's fault he lost the VCR when young but grow a brain here I mean after a Mill some "Learnin" is called for about your fan base!!

[Melinda in TN]

My husband LOVES Sara Evans! She is a real sweetie.

[pandemoniumreigns]

Lotta suds in that bucket..LOL

[ClarenceThomasfan]

I'll bet McGraw's agent is wincing right now and all the ticket and album sales going down the drain.

[fish hawk]

Guess Faith better dump him and let him marry the fat Dixie Chick. Unusual for a country singer to be a rat. Most are right wing and Christian.

[fish hawk]

Maybe Ted Nugent will "kill him and grill him". LOL

[HungarianGypsy]

Yes, he's a dem, but who cares? He certainly doesn't think or talk like one, which is what really counts.
Sometimes I think it's just family tradition for people to sign up under a certain political party. I have a friend who is registered Democrat, as is her mother. She doesn't follow politics closely, so was a little shocked about what the Democrats really believe. She has always voted Republican.

[pollyannaish]

Hate to burst your bubble, but I think I read that Toby Keith is a Democrat as well.

I don't care what side you are on—they should take the Gary Sinise model: Support the troops all out....and then shut up and sing.

[saveliberty]

:-) Then don't buy his music
