Secret Service To Question Ted Nugent

[Truth Teller]

I have a friend who used to promote concerts,he met Ted Nugent once,he told me that in private he found Nugent to be arrogant,an asshole,and a anti-black racist.

By contrast,he promoted one of U2's first US concerts and said they were the nicest people he ever met.

Is that the same friend in yer head that is going to sue Egypt?

The Nuge exercised his free speech rights. I notice free speech is a threat to establishment stooges who refer to themselves ironically as "liberals."

The Secret Service should probably be more focused on Columbian Hooker Gate. Nugent is a nut but he's not going to do anything to the President.

Doesn't nugent have a black bandmate? Of course, the black guy could be an uncle Ruckus...

Here's an old interview where he said he wasn't.

Ted Nugent has rejected accusations that he is a racist following his appearance on a Denver radio show Monday (May 5) when a live interview with Nugent was reportedly cut short after he used derogatory racial terms for Asians and blacks.

The following is Ted's official statement regarding the Denver incident:

"Let's get one thing straight first and foremost: I dedicated my last record, 'Craveman', to Rosa Parks, the Civil Rights pioneer. I did that because she is one of only a couple of heroes that I have ever had.

"A bit of advice — Never take too much serious that you hear on any FM morning radio show & be sure to have your sense of humor plugged in. The sole purpose of these programs is to entertain you with often over-the-top, irreverent, shock humor, the king of which is Howard Stern, right behind me. If you want serious radio, turn the dial to the AM channel.

"Because of my very public pro-hunting and pro-gun lifestyle, I have been the butt of many jokes on these FM radio programs across the country. Instead of becoming upset, I laugh hysterically, much like I did when 'Saturday Night Live' made fun of my hunting lifestyle in a widely entertaining parody. Only an uptight, politically correct idiot would get upset over a 'SNL' skit.

"Recently, on one of the world's best and certainly funniest morning radio shows, the FOX's 'Lewis & Floorwax' morning show in Denver, I made the comment that you can't play real, authentic, soulful, tuneful blues on a Jap guitar. My use of the word 'Jap' has obviously upset some people. Get over it. British people are commonly refereed to as Brits. Swedish people are known as Swedes. Americans are Yanks, even damn Yanks. I then went on to quote by name, my favorite record of all time, Richard Pryor's 'That ******'s Crazy!' Tho funny as hell, I was dead serious. I then stated that the best name ever for a band was *****S WITH ATTITUDE. I meant that, too. I then shared a wonderful story from my rock-n-roll youth in Detroit (live in person on 'Bob & Tom' radio to tens of millions on my new DVD) when my band THE LOURDES won the Michigan Battle of the Bands in 1963, and was rewarded with the privilege of performing on the same Cobo Hall stage with the gods of R&B, the mighty FUNK BROTHERS of Motown. In one of the most moving experiences in my musical career, the biggest, baddest Funk Brother of all, sashayed over to me and my band, put his strong black, genius hand on my trembling white shoulder, looked down upon me, and stated, 'Boy, you keeps playin guitar like dat, youz gonna be a ****** when youz grows up.' I shook in awe and reverence, and stuttered, 'Thank you sir.' I meant that, too. For these amazingly simple statements of humor, respect and honesty, I have been attacked as a racist.

"Let me tell you what's going on here. People hate me because I'm so damn effective at getting across my pro-gun, pro-hunting and pro-American statements. Forever, liberal hippies in the media have manufactured all sorts of hateful misrepresentations about me and about what I say and stand for. They are helpless to take me on intellectually, one on one, so they extract convenient edited phrases out of context and put their own negative, hateful left spin on them. They should be ashamed of themselves. But they will not be, for one would need a soul or semblance of conscience to do so, and in this cultural war to demonize all that I am & represent, they are hellbent to compromise the NRA Board of Director and America's #1 Bambi killer. It is the height of agenda driven, overtly biased unprofessionalism. It's pathetic. I refuse to cow down to the Pol Pott politics of vicious personal attacks that the politically correct, left-wing, anti-freedom idiots wish to shove down our collective throats. Nothing I have ever said on a goofy FM morning radio program was ever meant to demonize, slander or hurt anyone. The same is true for comedic geniuses such as Richard Pryor, Robin Williams, Lenny Bruce, George Carlin, Sam Kinison, Eddie Murphy, Jeff Foxworthy, Chris Rock, the cast of 'SNL', and just last week some huge funny as hell black comedian on Bill Maher's HBO TV show using the word ****** over and over again and again. The sanctimonious barriers of politically correct anal retentiveness were ceremoniously tossed to the wind by this outrageously funny comedian, clearly where they belong. Sense-of-humor. Open-mindedness. Poking fun at the human shortcomings of petty thoughtlessness, transparent veneer, and celebrating good old cheap shots for a good laugh. It's called humor, even though it may be vulgar to some, but damn funny to others nonetheless. It is pathetic to even have to address this issue, but I have long been a lightening rod for idiots. Anyone who has done but a modicum of research about me knows that I possess an irreverent, outrageous and deeply bouyant sense of humor. Moreover, throughout my 40-year career in the media, I have constantly praised the long list of black musical influences that shaped me as a young musician and continue to inspire me today. Furthermore, I have hired blacks and Mexicans to play in my band. Yet I'm a racist? I'll admit I'm a racist when you admit that one plus one equals seventeen. Shock and awe that. If you're waiting for an apology, I suggest you pack a lunch."

America's #1 Bambi Killer!

TT is way too uptight and humorless to be a liberal. He sounds like a conservative.

[Truth Teller]

Is that the same friend in yer head that is going to sue Egypt?

TROLL ALERT

And why is impossible for me to know someone who promoted concerts in the 70s and 80s?

Is there a metro area in the USA that never had concerts promoted?

Does one have to live in their parents basement (like you still do) to meet people?

The Nuge exercised his free speech rights.

It's against the law to threaten the life of a president.

The Secret Service should probably be more focused on Columbian Hooker Gate.

To me that's a non-issue,do you expect them to be cellibate?

Doesn't nugent have a black bandmate? Of course, the black guy could be an uncle Ruckus...

Who said one has to like their band members?

And who said one can't like individuals of a race,while being a racist against most of that race?

Dick Tator once called himself "A self-hating Black".

And I'm not saying that's true(though this guy has strong cedibility) ,I'm just telling what one person I know who met Nugent said.

Here's an old interview where he said he wasn't.

http://legacy.roadrunnerrecords.com/...wsitemID=11835



America's #1 Bambi Killer!

Well,my friend said Nugent would not make blatant racist comments ,but that he would often talk about how all "coons" should be killed,when people would look shocked ,he'd say he was talking about racoons.

TT is way too uptight and humorless to be a liberal. He sounds like a conservative.

You sound like you have a corncob stuck your ass.

[trgfbv]

You think they will water board him? Lots of his fellow conservatives think it's not torture.

[Lulu]

To me that's a non-issue,do you expect them to be cellibate?

Hold on.

You really think Nugent blathering is a more serious offense than SS jeopardizing the President's safety? You might want to rethink that one. Because that is exactly what they did. They hired hookers in a foreign country, told these hookers what they do and who they work for, and by doing that they could have jeopardized the safety of the President. I couldn't really give 2 shits if Nugent is a racist or he isn't. What the SS did is a far more serious offense... plus the fact that to the rest of the world they appear like a bunch of sex depraved losers who can't even pony up money for hookers.

[Truth Teller]

Hold on.

The agents involved weren't working with the president.

They hired hookers in a foreign country

Prostitution is legal in that country.

told these hookers what they do and who they work for

That might have been stupid,but I don't see where they endangered the life of the president.

These men (and women) work a job that make relationships virtually impossible,we all need companionship (excpet ,maybe Snouter) ,and if they had only paid their meager bill,no one would have known.

[Šñøü†ê®]

^RETARD* ALERT!

*On several levels and topics just in this one thread!

[Lulu]

The agents involved weren't working with the president.

Only 1 that we know of was NOT working with the President. And others feel differently about Obama's safety being at risk.

Ronald Kessler, a former Washington Post reporter and author of the book “In the President’s Secret Service: Behind the Scenes With Agents in the Line of Fire and the Presidents They Protect,” first heard about the investigation and tipped off Post reporters Friday night.

“It is the biggest scandal in Secret Service history,” Kessler said in an interview Saturday with POLITICO. “It is all part of this pattern that I wrote about in the book of corner cutting, laxness, cover up.”

Kessler said he heard of 12 agents being involved — some for allegedly soliciting prostitutes, others for attempting to cover it up. The group includes two supervisors, he said.

One of the prostitutes complained to police that she was not paid, setting off the investigation, Kessler said.

“(The police) told the State Department. The State Department told the Secret Service. The Secret Service told the White House. They withdrew,” Kessler said. “It is totally inappropriate for agents to be seeing prostitutes, but this subjected the agents to possible blackmail. Some of them are married. Anything is possible. The prostitutes could have been in league with terrorists or other drug dealers to demand ransoms.”

The incident is so troublesome because it could have put the president’s safety at risk, Kessler said.

One of the agents allegedly involved was not part of the Secret Service detail whose plainclothes agents shadow the president in public, but a supervisor in the Counter Assault Team, according to CBS News, which did not cite specific sources.

Again, no. Some were married so they do have relationships. Soliciting a whore is not a relationship and is completely inexcusable when your JOB is to protect the President, not party and screw around in Columbia.

I absolutely despised Bush, and think prostitution should be legal.

But what these idiots did is enough for them to be fired and ineligible to retire for the security issues they ignored, no matter who was the president at the time.

While I disagree (mildly) with TT, the Hookergate scandal has nothing to do with the Secret Service investigating as they are charged to do, and this includes thinly veiled threats to any president.

Remember the scandal in the LAPD not so long ago? That didn't mean that they suddenly stopped writing tickets, arresting felons, patrolling the streets of Los Angeles. If Nugent is stupid enough to make those comments in a well covered speech (and he shows his stupidity in the quoted remarks in post #5) then he is subject to an investigation as would anyone else be.

[Going Postal]

And I'm not saying that's true(though this guy has strong cedibility) ,I'm just telling what one person I know who met Nugent said.

Dude, no guy, at first meet, is going to say, "I hate me some coons; let's kill 'em all".

You wait, until somebody else slips up, and nobody objects, then you join in. Or, you ask a known (to you) friend of the guy, if he's cool. Or you could say, I was watching Chris rock do his "I hate n-word" skit on the telly... And if they let slip, "so true, so true" then let er rip. But, you don't come out and say that; that's what the 'net is for.

Hey, he's from around detroit, a pistons fan (black...), he may feel that blacks fucked it up...

[302Riz]

TROLL ALERT


You sound like you have a corncob stuck your ass.

How do you know what that sounds like? Do you shove corn cobs up your ass all the time?

[Šñøü†ê®]

^Indeed Teller apparently has experience with that strange practice if he knows what it sounds like! As bizarre as that is, Teller thinking about my penis the other day is even more weird. And it was in a Romney thread in the Political Debate section. Not sure but Teller seems like he has a case of penis envy.

[Truth Teller]

^RETARD* ALERT!

SELF-HATING JEW ALERT!

And others feel differently about Obama's safety being at risk.

And others agree with me.

Again, no. Some were married so they do have relationships.

People can be married in name only.

Soliciting a whore is not a relationship

It's companionship and often the only companionship people in such jobs get.

and is completely inexcusable when your JOB is to protect the President, not party and screw around in Columbia.

If one is on duty ,you are correct,my impression is these people were off duty.

Dude, no guy, at first meet, is going to say, "I hate me some coons; let's kill 'em all".

Produce a verbaitm quote of me saying that.

Judging by your link,he's done this before ,say shit then say "that's not what I meant ".

Hey, he's from around detroit, a pistons fan (black...)

That's my region,there are plenty of white racists around here,most of them talk in code too.

he may feel that blacks fucked it up...

I've heard he has insinuated that.

How do you know what that sounds like?

By the insanity that you espouse.

Not sure but Teller seems like he has a case of penis envy.

No one envys anything about a loser like you.

[antiquity]

The agents involved weren't working with the president.

Why were they there?

prostitution is legal in that country.

Irreverent.

That might have been stupid,but I don't see where they endangered the life of the president.

There are lots of way it could endanger the life of the President, blackmail for starters.

These men (and women) work a job that make relationships virtually impossible,we all need companionship (excpet ,maybe Snouter) ,and if they had only paid their meager bill,no one would have known.

Do their shit on their own time and not at the expense of the America taxpayer. Your statement make it sound like you invest in the companionship of a ho from the hood yourself from time to time.

PROJECTION ALERT (seems appropriate here. )
