This story first appeared on my Examiner.com page. BTW: The Toronto-based Digital Journal took down a story I wrote on this subject, saying it was inflammatory (despite the video proof) and closed my account. To the Canadian Suits that run DJ, thank you for revealing yourselves before I invested too much time or effort into you.
One must admit feeling a bit disheartened by this outpouring of public defense for Ted Nugent over his pedophilia and draft dodging.
Since these conservatives are generally the ones who wrap themselves in the American flag and have pictures of eagles and quotes mistakenly attributed to Thomas Jefferson on their blogs and Twitter pages, one might think that someone threatening to murder their President, then turning out to be a pedophile and a draft dodger would get their hackles up.
But, based on the comments we've received from our two stories on the subject, apparently not. That allows one to arrive at only one conclusion.
It's OK to be a pedophile and draft dodger as long as you threaten to murder Barack Obama.
Seriously. What other conclusion can you come to. Look at some of these comments! We'll leave the names off so we don't get yelled at. Again. :)
You, Bill Schmalfeldt, are an insane left wing whackadoodle nut case. I couldn't stand reading much of your drivvling rant, but I did read enough to realize you are in dire need of a mental health expert.
It seems odd that the noun "drivel" can be turned into a misspelled verb, but that's the least of my issues with this comment. How many words of a comment must one read before making such a dire diagnosis?
Let me ask you Bill, have you done anything you were ashamed of? Obviously Nugent is a madman, he brags about it, it's part of his schtick. What is your point again?
Of course I have. Who hasn't? But we're talking about pedophilia and living in your own filth to avoid the draft. I am guilty of neither. Do you have a problem with a candidate for President seeking out the endorsement of someone who has done both?
going back to 1977? to find something else to bitch about? Find something a little more relevant to the times..gas prices, taxes... and if you haven't served your own country then you have no right to bitch about someone else that hasn't!
Nine years in the Navy. Disabled Vietnam era veteran. Never once touched a girl under the age of 18. You don't think a Presidential candidate seeking out the endorsement of a known pedophile is relevant? Gracious.
So a radical leftist, heroin addict, stripper from age 16, is a credible source? She's a piece of garbage, just like the article you linked.
Ah. He speaks of Courtney Love who told Howard Stern she rendered, um... "oral services" to Nugent when she was 12. One would think I didn't also post a video where Nugent admits to an addiction to sex "with underaged girls."
So if your 18 y/o son has consensual sex with his 17 y/o girlfriend, would you come to his defense if he is called a pedophile?
Legally? Depends on the state where it happens. But if my 12-year old daughter gave oral --- services -- to a 28 year old man, I'd be upset if the GOP presumed nominee wanted his endorsement. Wouldn't you?
Apparently Bill, since the Nuge never spent any time behind bars for pedophilia, then he must not have broken any laws because I have never heard of him being brought up on charges. Look, I know you're a flaming liberal and would like nothing better than to sully someone's reputation (liberalism 101), but the crap you're throwing against the wall isn't sticking
But yet, conservatives continue to call Bill Ayers a murderer when he was never charged. This defender of pedophilia and draft dodging, for instance.
I think you may find Ayers and Dohrn are guilty of murders and unrepentant and Nugent is not a murderer nor does he continue embracing the errors of his past. just to keep it in perspective.
Look. Nugent admitted, on video, to molesting children. You want him to babysit your daughter? Cool. Let me know how that works. And as far as "sticking"?
(Ahem!)
On the day Ted Nugent is set to meet with the Secret Service about some incendiary remarks he made about President Obama at last weekend’s NRA national convention in St. Louis, the NRA deleted the archived footage of the comments from the internet.
At any rate...
We don't think Mittens has all that much to worry about. I and others on the blogosphere have been talking about this nonstop since yesterday. We've posted video copies of Nugent's admissions on the VH1 "Behind the Music" episode from 1998 and his draft-dodging story from 2000.
The Mainstream "Liberal" (hahahahahahaha!) Media continues to ignore the evidence, concentrating instead on Nugent's rant about killing President Obama... which not a single of the comments you see above even tried to condemn.
What does this tell you about the state of the right wing in America today?

Have you gotten your copy of "Unzipping the Mitt" yet? If not, why not? It's only $10 and profits go to the DNC to elect Progressives. Get it. Now.
