Crybaby Nugent says he's insulted by concert cancellation

[PoliticalTiger]

Ted Nugent said he was insulted by the cancellation of his planned concert at an Army post over his comments about President Obama.

Commanders at the Fort Knox, Ky., post nixed Nugent's segment of a June concert after the rocker and conservative activist said at a recent National Rifle Association meeting that he would be "dead or in jail by this time next year" if Obama is re-elected.

Nugent told The Associated Press this week that his words were not intended as a threat against the president.

"To think that there's a bureaucrat in the United States Army that would consider the use or abuse of First Amendment rights in determining who is going to perform at an Army base is an insult and defiles the sacrifices of First Amendment rights," [draft dodger] Nugent said.

First off, Teddy, your First Amendment rights were not violated. I suggest your sorry ass actually reads the First Amendment. Second, you know what's "an insult to First Amendment rights?" YOU ARE! Unlike you, those who made "sacrifices" in order that we have the First Amendment rights you know nothing about did not shit and piss in their pants for a week so they could avoid serving in the military and make those "sacrifices" while you were busy adopting your 16 year old girl friend!

Can you believe that man being insulted? He's said some nasty stuff and been given a talking to by the Secret Service for spouting off. I hope the rest of the base concerts are cancelling him too. What a bum.

What you said, PT! Ever notice it's the assholes like Nugent who scream the loudest about their rights being "violated" when it is they themselves who should be seen as a violation and an affront to the men and women who didn't crap their pants in order to avoid serving!

Maybe he should contact the ACLU.

How does he figure that is not a threat to the President? What did the idiot mean, then?

I'm perturbed that he was considered in the first place. Who is in charge of military entertainment - it must be a right winger. They decide Rush should be played to the military, now this. At least they cancelled his ass.

"Metaphors needn't be explained to educated people," he said.

So I guess Nugent thinks the base commanders aren't educated.

Ted, you are human garbage.

It's not too late for ya all to book your flights to Phoenix to see Ted Nugent perform here next month. Leave any functioning brain cells at home.

Dickheads like Nugent are alwasy screaming about taking responsibility for one's actions but it never applies to them.

How he has had the opportunity in the past to play for our military is a mystery to me. He is well known to have been a draft dodger and he bragged about it....so no he doesn't deserve to play in front of our fine military men and women who did not wimp out when signing their military contracts.

We can only hope.

The 1st Amendment does NOT absolve one of responsibility of what one has said out loud, as the rabid right wing is finding out.

Responsibility--it isn't just for the Political Left anymore.
