Vote to reelect President George W. Bush! And the Mad Man from Motor City agrees, Cynthia Cassell is the right choice for United States Congress in the 13th District!

Magnum Minute By Ward Parker The problem with democrats is that they don't believe in themselves. Democrats place their trust in Uncle Sam. From healthcare to education, they place their faith in the federal government, though the federal government's track record of doing much of anything right on the social welfare front is abysmal. It isn't so much the federal government's fault that they have screwed up just about every social program they have touched in so much as it is the democrats who have demanded the federal government take an active role in our daily lives. There is a...

According to Washington Whispers, Nugent is tired of MTV and musicians such as P. Diddy pushing young people to vote without pushing them to learn what is really going on. "That's not good enough," says Nugent. "It's like saying, 'Well, there's a child drowning in the river. Just do something. Here, I'll throw him a cinder block.'"

A Muskegon County judge has thrown out the "defamation of character" portion of rock-star Ted Nugent's lawsuit against Muskegon Summer Celebration, ruling that no evidence exists to justify taking it to trial. Still alive is Nugent's "breach of contract" claim, which was not at issue in a hearing Monday before 14th Circuit Judge Timothy G. Hicks.

Rocker Ted Nugent is onto something. According to Washington Whispers, Nugent is tired of MTV and musicians such as P. Diddy pushing young people to vote without pushing them to learn what is really going on. "That's not good enough," says Nugent. "It's like saying, 'Well, there's a child drowning in the river. Just do something. Here, I'll throw him a cinder block.'" Heh, heh, you got to like Nugent for his visual language, but as I said he's on to something. According to a new report, many voters don't have much idea what is going on. An informed electorate...

BAGHDAD, Iraq -- More than 500 soldiers, sailors, Marines and airmen crowded around a stage at a U.S. installation to hear country star Toby Keith and 1970s rocker Ted Nugent.

I consider myself part of the base of the Republican party. I think everyone should own a gun. I think abortion should be outlawed, but I understand that at this point in time it will be difficult to accomplish. I think taxes should be cut, terrorists should be killed, and laws should be enforced. Government is a neccessary evil that we must deal with. It isn't my savior, and I shouldn't have to pay for it to be anyone else's either. Cut as much government spending as possible and force each person to be responsible for themselves. Once people realize...

If Jesse Ventura can do it, if Arnie Schwarzenegger can do it, why not the Nuge?If voters can elect a wrestler and an actor as governor, why can't they elect a rock and roll guitar player, too? The Motor City Madman says there's a 50-50 chance he'll run. Gov. Ted Nugent. Go grab some bicarbonate of soda, fast. Teddy was in town the other day to beat the legislative bushes for the right to kill mourning doves. His little one-act play on the Capitol steps in front of 300 hunters was filled with one great sound bite after another. He...

<p>Comparing a civil rights icon to hunters' rights, rock star and hunter Ted Nugent turned up the volume Tuesday on a perennial campaign to legalize mourning-dove hunting in Michigan.</p> <p>Nugent was among those who exhorted several hundred hunters and gun-rights advocates on the Capitol lawn to lobby lawmakers. Three hours later, the House responded by passing a bill to end the state's 98-year ban on hunting mourning doves, which are valued by many for their docile nature and cooing song.</p>

To: We the undersigned, in responce to a seperate petition, argue that Ted Nugent lives the American Dream. He uses what he hunts, respects the community and nature and does not intentionally prolong the sufferieng of any animal intentionally. Ted does many things to educate about the proper ways of using nature and what God has given us. He teaches how to live of the land, instead of in a supermarket. He defends the constitution as a whole, doesn't pick and choose what parts he wants and throw the rest out. He is in many peoples eyes the quintesential American....

Gaywatch: "Surviving Nugent" by Christine Champagne Editors' note: He had to deal with a barn full of pig dung, walking through a swamp, skinning a boar and not shooting the Nuge -- but gay DJ Darren won the game, taking home $25,000 and a very butch vehicle.
