Ted Nugent might run for NRA president

[twyacht]

"To my mind it is wholly irresponsible to go into the world incapable of preventing violence, injury, crime, and death. How feeble is the mindset to accept defenselessness. How unnatural. How cheap. How cowardly. How pathetic."
Ted Nugent

Maybe letting the Brady Bunch know that the Motor City Madman is going to take it right to your office door and make the anti's hide under their desks is a good thing.

GO TED!!!

"Drugs are for fools. I told (rock legends) Jimi Hendrix, Keith Moon and Jerry Garcia what was going to happen to them if they kept taking drugs. Well, look what happened. They took drugs, and they’re dead. I went hunting, and I’m still Ted."
Ted Nugent


Mrs. Brady: There's someone here to speak with you,......

If you listen to Ted and more importantly watch the way he lives his life you will see that he is as clean cut as they come.  No drugs, alcohol, family man, American values, community supporter, etc.  He also does something we need more of - speaks his mind and does not apologize for it.  If your not sure what Ted believes, and I mean everything Ted believes, you aren't listening.

Elect Ted and we will send a message that goes the next step beyond Heston's "from my cold dead hands!"

Thats not the way most of the world sees him.  Do you really think some one like ted will bring the middle and some of the near left around to the NRAs veiw points? 

I love the fact that he says whats on his mind.   Its his actions that I take offense too.

I'm with TAB. While I personally like Ted, what he does, and what he stands for. I think he could actually drive people away from the NRA since he's a little too extreme for most of the middle and left folks around. That and the fact that he seems to actually promote responsibility, which far too few people want anymore (they'd rather just wander around looking for someone to blame for their problems so they can sue them)

I may not agree with TAB on this issue, but I will say he does seem to have a firm grip on two sensitive matters and he appears to have his hands full dealing with them.

What actions do you not agree with ... No drug use ... Teach youth no drug use ... Hunts and uses what he kills ... Explains why it is important not to just trophy hunt ... Lives by non-trophy hunt ethics ... Is a strong family man ... Gives to individuals and the community of both his time, money and resources ... Is what he says he is (maybe that is what most people hate about him - he doesn't hide his real feelings and beliefs) ... Write, wrong, popular or unpopular he does not sway and shift in his beliefs ... Not afraid to speak his mind to anyone of any station ... ?

I will admit that if I was given the choice between Tom Seleck and Uncle Ted, I would go with Tom.  However, I see nothing wrong with going up against the likes of Sarah Brady (sp?) and Rebecca Peters with someone just as in your face as they and their minions are.

The main one is him becoming a LEO in name only just so he can carry in all 50 states.

Every thing else I can attribute to rock'n roll.( example the recent suck on my machine gun comments during a concert.)

He has been rather supportive of our troops, so I am willing to let a little slide. Also if NRA members leave just because of him I would question their commitment to the preserving our freedoms.

This is the exact attitude that will lead to the end of guns rights.  I mean wtf how dare you question some one elses commitment, to preserving thier freedoms by no longer being part of a org that they no longer beleave is on the right path.

Reply to TAB, Poorsoulin NJ, and others who think Ted is to brash, I will point out that for the last several decades the NRA has been run by people with a mind set similar to yours and they have been steadily loosing ground. Your ideas are no different than Obama's stated foreign policy, an attempt to reuse ideas that have consistantly failed in the past.
No war is won by defense, and if you do not think this is a war then you have not been paying attention for the past 90 years or so. Socialism is an INTERNATIONALIST ideology aimed at world domination, (Marx said communism would not be achieved from socialism until  the entire world reached socialism. ) That is why a political theory dreamed up by and promoted by Germans achieved its first victory in Russia. Anyone who reads history knows that communist and socialist movements had begun infiltrating the US in the late 1800's. The fall of the Soviet Union did not end the attack on the US by world communism, it simply changed the nature of it, why else would one worlders like George Soros spend billions of dollars financing the likes of Rebbeca Peters and her UN attacks on gun rights world wide.
Now is not the time to "play nice" on the gun rights issue, We did that with FDR and got the NFA, we continued to follow your methods and got the GCA 68, we STILL didn't learn and got the clinton AWB. 3 strikes, your out. It is time to take the offensive and TAKE back our civil liberties. If you consider the Spanish American War and the aftermath in Asia of our media influenced withdrawal from Vietnam there is a case to be made that the 1st Amendment has killed more people than all the gun related deaths of the 20th century.
It's PAST time to fight back and Ted is the guy to take the fight to the enemy.
