Ted Nugent to Attend State of the Union With Stockman
Rock musician Ted Nugent, an outspoken gun rights advocate who once said President Obama could "suck on my machine gun," will be a guest of U.S. Rep. Steve Stockman, R-Friendswood, at Obama's State of the Union speech Tuesday night.
“I am excited to have a patriot like Ted Nugent joining me in the House Chamber to hear from President Obama,” Stockman said in a statement. “After the Address I’m sure Ted will have plenty to say.”

Who is dumber...Nugent, Stockman, or the voters in the new 36th CD?? Sigh, my neighbors...

If Stockman didn't make it clear before, this time he has really thrown down and declared himself a lunatic grandstanding politician of the Louie Gohmert class.

What us the Left so afraid of from Nugent? They cant seem to refute him logically. They seem to feel a need to ridicule him personally which just makes them seem petty, afraid and unable to defend their viewpoints otherwise. The politics of division is all they have left?

A true patriot? Nugent brags about the lengths he went to so he wouldn't get drafted and have to serve in Vietnam. He was classified 4F. He's a loudmouth and a coward, there's nothing to refute.
Here's hoping the Secret Service has the agent with the largest fingers perform a thorough cavity search on this idiot before they deny him entrance.
What does this say about the morality and intelligence of Republican voters in his district?

Ya know, I used to listen to his music, but how does that suddenly transcend him into a knowledgable person is beyond me. He presents so many emotional and unsupportable arguments. His agenda is so transparent that he should be embarrased. He is proof that nationalistic fervor can be a dangerous thing. Particlularly when it is at the expense of reason.

Why anyone should care what a pedophile and draft-dodger thinks is beyond me.
He's a coward who thinks owning a big "gun" makes him a man. I never did listen to any of his crappy music, either.
Stockman is clearly crazy, and I wish mental illness was a dis qualifier for holding public office.

Steve Stockman of Friendswood has not even gottn to the first 90 day free trial and he has already voided his term and responsibility. Friendswood needs to recall this numbskull!

Why does an elected official have to embrace this kind of extremism? The nuts on the far left and the far right already get too much attention. Put this freak back in the sideshow where he belongs.

I'm really baffled by clearly mentally ill gun nuts like Nugent talking up the solution being locking up the mentally ill. Is it a cry for help?

Barak would make a good musician, he should take Ted's place, and dare we say it, Ted should take Barak's? Either way, it wouldn't make any real difference; which is sad indeed.
Samdavis
Deb, if you compare Obama to Nugent you need to quit watching FOX and get counseling. Seriously, you've got mental issues.

Samdavis you need to ask obama to produce an original birth certificate; not the manufatured posted on the internet and evidence on the s.s.# belonging to a dead man and why are we paying $3.35 for a gallon of gas when 4 years ago the same gas was $ 1.29 and why 49% of the population is on welfare and the deficit went from 10 trillion 4 years ago to about 17 trillion today ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,
