'Nam Draft Dodger Ted Nugent's Wife was the Freep Spokeslady!
On Faux today! Cripes is that the best they can do? KARL, you're losing your touch.

Lemme put it this way, in freepspreak: How ironical is that?

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Nugent

Nugent dodged the draft during the Vietnam War. In an interview for the Detroit Free Press (July 15, 1990), Nugent described how he avoided the draft: He claims that 30 days before his Draft Board Physical, he stopped all forms of personal hygiene. The last ten days he ingested nothing but junk food and Pepsi, and a week before his physical he stopped using the bathroom altogether, virtually living inside pants caked with excrement and stained by his urine. That spectacle won Nugent a deferment, he says. His quote: “ but if I would have gone over there, I'd have been killed, or I'd have killed, or I'd have killed all the Hippies in the foxholes… I would have killed everybody

20. So he says
I recall seeing his show several times back in the early 70's when he had a fairly small following in the midwest. His set was always full of drug references (ever listen to "Papa's Will"?) One time during his performance, with much goading from the audience, he made a production of smoking a huge joint on stage.

Puhleeze. He only came up with the anti-drug line when he went for the wing nut market.

25. Let's not forget...
...those classic cuts from 1967's 'Amboy Dukes' (Ted on guitar), 'Let's Go Get Stoned' & 'Down On Philips Escalator (D.O.P.E.).'

Ted's a freakin' tool.

7. Derek St. Holmes
Ted Nugent has Derek St. Holmes to thank for his career.

All of Nugent’s platinum albums feature Derek St. Holmes on vocals.


http://www.classicrockrevisited.com/interviews00/derekst.homles.htm

Remember the last time you took out your Ted Nugent or Cat Scratch Fever albums. Think about listening to Stranglehold, Hey Baby, Got To Live It Up or Death By Misadventure. These songs, and many more in the Nugent catalog, bring to mind two things: Ted’s guitar heroics and the vocals of Derek St. Holmes.



http://www.the-fuze.com/derekstholmes.html

As any rock fan worth his salt should know, you were the voice of Ted Nugent’s coup de grace debut LP. I have to wonder, how did your relationship with Ted change after that album, and over the course of the next two, ‘Free For All’ and ‘Cat Scratch Fever’?

All the animosity started early. Now, I didn’t have any towards Ted. It became all about Ted Nugent, nothing about us. There were no pictures of us, there were no interviews with us. And here I am doing all the singing. I should have gotten my props from being lead singer.



Derek St. Holmes

The quartet was signed to Epic shortly thereafter, resulting in Nugent's self-titled release in 1975. The album (along with continued non-stop touring) helped establish the group even further, but inter-band friction threatened to derail the group (Nugent wanted to be the sole leader and focus of the attention, while the other members wanted more of a democracy). Just prior to when recording sessions for a sophomore effort were scheduled to get under way, St. Holmes left the group and was replaced by a then-unknown Meat Loaf for 1976's Free-for-All (although St. Holmes managed to appear on some of the recording). While the album was another success, Nugent quickly realized that St. Holmes was better suited for the group and was welcomed back into the band prior to the album's supporting tour.

Nugent's third release, 1977's Cat Scratch Fever, turned out to be the group's big commercial breakthrough, resulting in the Nuge's lone solo hit single (the album's anthemic title track) and further sold-out arena tours. But big-time success only seemed to fuel the problems between St. Holmes and Nugent, resulting in St. Holmes leaving the band for good shortly after the 1978 in-concert set Double Live Gonzo (Nugent continued to prosper for a period, but St. Holmes' exit would ultimately prove detrimental to the Nuge's career). St. Holmes formed a new outfit, Saint Paradise (along with his former Nugent bandmate Grange), who only managed to issue a lone self-titled release for Warner Bros. in 1979 before splitting up as well.

11. Like Pan on bad acid
Ted Nugent is on a born to kill macho trip of long duration.
They say there is a fine line between genius and insanity, now we know which side of it Ted has been on all along.

15. What a nice guy
From the wikipedia article:
Nugent is also known for his unabashed opinions on many subjects: feminists--"What's a feminist anyways? A fat pig who doesn't get it often enough?"; gun control--"Only a coward supports gun control. You know how to stop carjacking? Shoot the carjacker. If someone is going to kill me for my Buick, I'm gonna shoot until I'm out of ammo - and then I'll call 911"; vegetarians--"Vegetarians are cool. All I eat are vegetarians -- except for the occasional mountain lion steaks."

====
The last time I saw him in concert, he was playing all the oldies and then he launched into a Janet Reno Sucks song. Totally stupid and it said a lot about him.

17. Jung was right the more something upsets you .......
Poor Ted just because your afraid to serve doesn't give you the right to disrespect others. I do hope that you can make peace with your inner cowardness. In the meantime doesn't isn't it funny that the more vocal the pro war person is the more likely that they dodged the draft.

22. Don't forget Ted Nugent is also a child molestor
On the MTV Special "Daughters of Rick Stars", Nugents daughters confessed that Ted frequently brought "young ones" home.

(Ted, Bushevik coward & monster that he is, laughingly replied, "You girls know...I'm a breeder")

To further elaborate on Ted's serial statutory rape/child molestation (not against his daughters, that they mentioned, anyway) his daughter mentioned that once Ted brought home a girl so young that she was "playing basketball with our little brother in the backyard" (this said in such a tone as to unmistakably a girl of 13 or perhaps less, especially considering the daughters in question were 14 & 16 at the time.

The daughters, to their credit, put their feet down and stopped at least that one case child molestation/statutory rape from happening.

But, as Ted laughingly put it "I'm a breeder."

Who likes the young 'uns. Sick f*cking bastard.

Lots of Busheviks seem to be into child molestation, it moust have something to do with their fetish for brutalizing the weak. They do so love to brutalize the weak whenever possible, from their Emperor to the lowliest Bushevik Not-See.
