John McCain is set to speak at the NRA annual meeting with Ted Nugent four days before the Kentucky primary on May 16th, 2008. McCain's campaign has kept this appearance low-key so far. Maybe we can put down our primary swords and join together to get this into the open!
Why would we want to do this? Well because Ted Nugent is a nut-job!
Why might McCain be reluctant to have himself officially listed on the NRA's event? The answer may well be his concern about being associated with Nugent who, less than one year ago, held up two machine guns at a concert and--in one of the most brazen displays of violent rhetoric by a well-known pundit ever caught on video--threatened the lives of Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger, Sen. Diane Feinstein, Sen. Hillary Clinton, and Sen. Barack Obama.

Ted Nugent, The mere name conjures up images of outlaw rock and roll. Ted's music has been around for years, He hails from my home state of Michigan, and from my native city of Detroit. Although, conversely, He is not from the city of Detroit proper, He was, by all accounts, a suburbanite kid, from a well-privileged family.

Execrably bad singer/guitarist, NRA-spokesperson and death penalty advocate Ted Nugent wants to run for governor of Michigan (and presumably move back there from Texas). He also claims that the only U.S. failure in Iraq "has been not to Nagasaki them." When asked by a reporter (in the record) if his friends in the Republican Party feel that way, he replied "Most of them feel that way." Since Nugent's long and close relationship with George Bush is a matter of public record, the reporter pressed a little to find out which Republicans exactly want to nuke Iraq. (That's Iraq with a "q" not the place with an "n.") "I've heard it from high-level senators and congressmen."
