Ted Nugent continues attack on Obama: 'Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dread'

Ted Nugent’s harsh language for President Obama and all those who would dare utter the words “gun control” continued during his interview with CNN’s Piers Morgan Wednesday. Watch clips below. Nugent compared his infamous 2007 concert rant on Obama — “I told him to suck on my machine gun” — to watching Richard Pryor, Sam Kinison, or Lenny Bruce live. “I’m on a rock ‘n roll stage. I just sang a song about feisty [bleep]….. Get over it. That’s some funny s—.” But speaking in what he dubbed “official CNN Piers Morgan interview terms,” he explained his position thusly: “Anybody that wants to disarm me can drop dread. Anybody that wants to make me unarmed and helpless, people that want to literally create the proven places where more innocents are killed called gun-free zones, we’re gonna beat you. We’re gonna vote you out of office or suck on my machine gun. You can take it whichever way you like.”

Read the full transcript for their complete gun control debate. Nugent used softer language when discussing the issue of homosexuality. If one of his children to him he was gay, “I’d say, ‘Get the gun, let’s go kill a deer. Inconsequential,’” Nugent said. “I am repulsed at the concept of man-on-man sex. I think it’s against nature. I think it’s strange as hell. But if that’s what you are, I love ya.”

    Better dead than Ted.

      WANGO TANGO!!!

    “You’re gross and you repulse me…but I love you.” Why wouldn’t anybody just love to hear that?
    I don’t get why everyone keeps relating gun control with Obama since he hasn’t seemed to really touch that issue. But I guess it gets people to send in money to the NRA.

    • Jen

      I was just going to say this. I also love how he has to say he’s repulsed by it, just so we know for sure he’s not. About as mature as a 17-year-old boy.

      • totally ungay

        …not that there’s anything wrong with it..

  • The Bambino

    Well put, John, well put.

  • R

    It’s called gun control not gun elimination … Red neck moron

    • Thomas Jefferson

      Your ignorance is showing.
      Buy a book, read my letters. And stop being insensitive to people different from yourself. (redneck comment)

  • RayT

    He, Arnold, and Lars Von Tryer are all competing for this week’s “I Don’t Know When to Stop Talking” award.

  • Roger

    I hope the secret service pays this repulsive, demented man a visit. He is a total waste of good oxygen.

    • Thomas Jefferson

      Him first, then me, then you.
      Once you’re disarmed, there’s no end.
      Learn from true history of cause and effect, not the revisionist history your school fed you.

  • rey

    i have no issue with nuge. i also like obama. the president has made no intentions on expanding gun control.
    it is more fear mongering by conservatives.

    • Flyer

      Gun shop owners also made a killing (pardon the pun) from all the ridiculous fear-mongering. I remember seeing all the gun shop ads in the paper urging people to buy guns and ammo before Obama took office, because of course the first thing he was going to do after he got in office was pass gun-control legislation. You know what they say about fools and their money.

  • John

    The federal government is working on ways around the constitution to eliminate the second ammendment. Your government is not your friend

    • RB

      Paranoid much?

      • Thomas Jefferson

        It’s not paranoia if there’s historical references to point to his validation.
        Get the sand out of your eyes and read. Learn that what made this nation great is the strength of the people and limited government. Enslaved much?

  • aliaga-kelly

    MY MOMMA SAYS OBAMA!

  • Jen

    Hmmm…so he’s “repulsed” by gay men, but he wants Obama to suck on his “machine gun”? Paging Dr. Freud.

    • Mox

      Ha. Acute observation.

    • Yesenia

      Very clever

    • Flyer

      Interesting that he’s “repulsed” by male gay sex, but says nothing about lesbian sex. I guess woman-on-woman action has a different effect on him, eh?

  • wakeforce

    This from a guy who hasn’t had a hit in 30-40 years. Who still listen to this guy? Crickets…

    • Shasta

      For real. I know the name “Ted Nugent,” but have no idea what songs he does. What a redneck.

      • R Shannon

        Before Detroit-born Nugent thought he was a Texas redneck, he thought he was British – search Amboy Dukes on YouTube!!

    • Thomas Jefferson

      Pretty smart to make his fortune & make a LIFE for himself. He does what he loves every day.
      He has no need to hang on to the Hollywood scene.

      Oh! And we can’t wait to hear your Crunk 40 hit!

  • Clete

    Ah, this is what makes America great. Any minor celebrity can babble on about something they know nothing about and be taken seriously by the media.

  • kaydevo

    Ted’s been a nut-job for as long as I can remember. No REAL news program should interview him.

    • Jeff

      Exactly right. Nothing like support for one side than a guy who appears to be unstable. By the way, why is he famous? He had one solid hit and it was terrible. No one should really have an arsenal of guns – especially a guy who is probably days away from creating his own “society” and currency.

  • Clay

    The Nuge is totally nucking futs. His whole career has been built around a rebellion against things that don’t exist. No one has ever taken a gun, bow or grenade away from Ted Nugent. No one has ever stopped him from playing music or singing about ridiculously immature topics.

    What the hell does he have to complain about? He’s got his own property, he kills his food and he has sex with whomever he wants. And I really don’t see what Obama or any other politician has done to infringe on any of that. Nugent’s life has been the same for the last twenty years.

    • Thomas Jefferson

      Your ignorance on history is showing.
      People had the same mindless attitude toward the Nazis, and more regimes than you want to know about have dipped the people into trusting them.

      Learn your history and you’ll see you were wrong

  • Leithen

    “[K]ill a dear”, EW. Don’t you mean a deer?

    Please, edit these things. At least pretend there are standards.

    • lola

      not to mention “dRead” instead of “dead” in the headline and the article, sheesh
