Uncle Ted and the Fed
 

It seems that the Motor city mad man is at odds with our beloved government, from baiting deer in California, to an illegal black bear hunt in Alaska, raising an invasive species of feral hog in Michigan, and running a foul with the Secret Service over comments made at a NRA conference,:hmmm::hmmm:Teddy,:nope: Teddy, what are we to do with you, all I can say, as a long time fan is "GIVE THEM HELL , I'm with you, YOU ROCK.":woot::woot::woot:

Even hunters can't stand Ted anymore.

Ted is just another "celebrity" with a political view I do not care about.

Just play your guitar and sing.

Yes I feel the same way about Libbies like Alec Baldwin, shut up, and make me laugh.

I must agree I enjoy fishing and the occasional hunt legally I have zero respect for those that take game animals illegally and will drop the dime to the local game warden on them without a second thought and most fishermen and hunters feel the same way. Those laws are in place so that others in future will have something to hunt and fish.

Who may I ask is Ted?:hmmm:

Ted Nugent, famous 'merican rocker, mean on a guitar, but biased to the point of disgust.

Darn good version.

Ah, right....great song, I remember it well :yeah:

Notice the AR-15 with the 100 round magazine behind him in that video?He is really really into guns a bit too much so.I bet that is a stage prop though I do not know if you can have a 100 round magazine in CA I am sure that it is because a real one would be illegal is some sates that he tours in he might not really care though.

I like this song more: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E9UJT...eature=related

At least he is anti drugs and alcohol.

Great Uncle Ted song.

I love his music, I just find him a bit too far to the right for my tastes, but that does not take away from his talent. Awesome performer, and a hell of a guitarist.

I love guns too, so me and Ted can agree on something.:D Nor do I find Ted to be a bad guy because of that Alaska bear thing. (I love how the leftist [mind you I consider myself a lefty, but a fair one] media called it poaching, when the problem was with the transport of the corpse)

Edit: Ted is famous for eating all the meat he shoots, that would not be waste. He just so happens to be the (I hate this term, as it is unfair on alot of us) liberals latest whipping boy.

Ted Nugent stated in a 1977 High Times magazine interview that he quit bathing, then urinated and defecated on himself before going in front of the draft board in order to 4-F out of Vietnam. Some patriot.

Exactly. Now that he's clear of any personal danger he becomes a super patriot. He's little more than a hypocrite with a loud mouth.

Please do not construe my last post as a love fest, he is a borderline lunatic IMHO.

But dammit I love his music.

Him, Dave Grohl, Jack White, Sailor Steve, and Dio (RIP) would have been a supergroup!:D

Edit: Chris Cornell since Dio is gone. :(

...and Ted knows a thing or two about insults... :D

...

The Marines, could use some entertainment, I guess the Army doesn't know what side of the constitution it wants to be on.

Considering the Marines gave the boot to the guy who dissed Obama on Facebook, I don't think their gonna be booking Ted anytime soon, either...

...

Yeah, they got to keep up appearences I guess, I was just hope-ing they weren't going to be a bunch of gut-less wonders on protecting the constitution.

That Marine violated an article if the UCMJ (military law) and he got what he deserved.Only a gutless person would willingly violate the laws that apply to them as a member of the US military.The military is not a democracy in can not be due to the nature of military command.

Article 134
"Though not specifically mentioned in this chapter, all disorders and neglects to the prejudice of good order and discipline in the armed forces, all conduct of a nature to bring discredit upon the armed forces, and crimes and offenses not capital, of which persons subject to this chapter may be guilty, shall be taken cognizance of by a general, special or summary court-martial, according to the nature and degree of the offense, and shall be punished at the discretion of that court."

In theory,
Article 89
Disrespect toward a superior commissioned officer. The President of the United Sates is the Commander in Chief of the armed forces therefore whom ever it may may be at any given time
they are considered a superior officer.

Some say that Article 88 applies but that article is directed at commissioned officers the Marine was an NCO.

On top of that there is a DOD directive that further outlines so that no one gets confused what one can and con not do from a political action standpoint as a military member
One of them is that they may not:
Publish or allow to be published partisan political articles, literature, or documents that they have signed, written, or approved that solicit votes for or against a partisan political party, candidate, issue, or cause.

http://www.dod.mil/dodgc/defense_eth...n/1344-10.html

A DOD directive is an order so he also disobeyed an order that Marine is an insult if you as a military member do not like the President then go vote against him.He claims that he did not know but that is bull they teach you the important UCMJ articles that differ from civil law in basic training.My advice to Mr. Stein is to look up insubordination in the dictionary.And I bet that he nailed lower ranking Marines for being insubordinate towards him.

I went to Vietnam, came back and protested against the war (after I was out, in case you wanted to invoke the UCMJ on me). I firmly believe the war was wrong and we never should have been there. If he took steps not to go at all, it doesn't make him a coward and it doesn't mean he doesn't love his country or that he's not a patriot. I've never been a fan, and I think he's quite over the top, but I also think that you both view yourselves as patriots, and where Vietnam was concerned I'm not. I also believe that the people who went to jail rather than be drafted were braver than myself, and the ones who went to Canada better than myself. Most of them weren't interested in saving their skins so much as refusing to participate in their country's immorality.

"In Dr. Johnson's famous dictionary patriotism is defined as the last refuge of a scoundrel. With all due respect to an enlightened but inferior lexicographer I beg to submit that it is the first."
-Ambrose Bierce

:salute: Well, a man has to do what a man has to do, right, or wrong, then we see how much of a man he really is, when it goes south on him, and what he makes out of it, need alot more people too step up, or are we going sit down and shut up like we are told. Me I'm, not going to sit down and shut up, though many would like me too.

What ever if are referring to the Marine Mr. Stein he is obviously a coward becuase he is not man enough to say "Yes I did violate the UCMJ and I did it because ......." that would be a "manly"
way the spineless wimp way is to try and hide from what you did and attempt to seek protection from civil laws so the guy that goes AWOL will try to say that is not illegal in the civilian world to skip out on work.

As to Ted Nugent I put little faith into what some guy who is clearly in left field as it is nor what he told a some likely doped up High Times reporter in 1977 it almost certainly is not a true story.
I am not defending Ted I am simply saying that he told an interesting story in 1977.
