(04-27) 21:35 PDT LOS ANGELES, (AP) -- Ted Nugent said he was insulted by the cancellation of his planned concert at an Army post over his comments about President Barack Obama. Commanders at the Fort Knox, Ky., post nixed Nugent's segment of a June concert after the rocker and conservative activist said at a recent National Rifle Association meeting that he would be "dead or in jail by this time next year" if Obama is re-elected. Nugent told The Associated Press this week that his words were not intended as a threat against the president. "To think that there's a bureaucrat in the United States Army that would consider the use or abuse of First Amendment rights in determining who is going to perform at an Army base is an insult and defiles the sacrifices of those heroes who fought for the U.S. Constitution, Bill of Rights," Nugent said. Nugent said he had received messages of support from troops and noted that the Secret Service had met with him and closed its case about the remarks. "There is nothing in my spoken word or written word that could be even wildly considered by any stretch of the imagination to be a threat to anyone," Nugent said. Asked to clarify the remarks at the NRA convention, Nugent said: "A whole bunch of us ... believe ... we are in danger of being improperly and criminally jailed — I mean criminally on the part of the government." Earlier in the week, Nugent pleaded guilty to transporting a black bear he illegally killed in Alaska, saying he was sorry for unwittingly violating the law. He told the AP that he advises fellow hunters, "even when you are aghast at a maniac, inexplicable, illogical law, please abide by those laws at all costs." Nugent said the prosecution in U.S. District Court was the result of a "witch hunt" by federal officials over his activism. "We the people are turning up the heat," he said. "And that's why I'm being singled out by certain fish and game agencies and certain U.S. attorneys." The AP was not successful in obtaining comment from Jack Schmidt, the assistant U.S. attorney who prosecuted Nugent this week in Ketchikan, Alaska. An email seeking comment from Karen Loeffler, the U.S. Attorney for Alaska, was not immediately returned.

Poor wittle rich baby is getting paranoid in his old age.
Your jealousy and envy are on full display.
Thanks Boof, I'll forgot that you worship pedophiles and serial adulterers. Maybe you can run Teddy for office as a perfectly qualified GOP candidate.
You liberal slags are a hoot. Say 'hi' to your boyfriend Bernie Ward next time you visit him in prison.
ming produced her children through pedophilia acts. She/it has 3 kids from screwing her/its brother. Yes ming is a pedophile rapist.
Yes ming is a pedophile rapist. Another Sunday morning hang-over?
No just tit for tat.
Your remarcks are as FUCKED-UPPED as you are, Stone. You are doing two things that are clearly out of order, 1) you are further dividing the chit-chat forum and 2) you are alienating potential posters from signing on. You are increasingly becoming nasty, vile and uncivil.
Thank You. No reason to be nice to the Obama supporters.
You were a FUCKED-UPPED McCAIN supporter. Whats the difference? More hot-aire?
I supported Palin, and possibly would again.
You voted for McCain in the last election as the President. What are you doing attempting to whitewash your own hogwash?
Yeah. And you didn't vote against Obama. You wont vote against him next time. You must like Obama. You and he have a lot in common.
Oh boy! I feel the power of ZOT coming on because you "think" in hyperscopic profiles according to Herr Goebbels.
Oh boy! I feel the power of ZOT coming on because you "think" in hyperscopic profiles according to Herr Goebbels. You like Obamas supreme court picks don't you. A could more and he is president for life. You will never get someone who agrees with you on everything. You are just a constant whiner and complainer. You're never happy no matter what.
Romney could do worse as his record at picking supremes in MA shows. You're promoting queer Marxists by voting for Mitt Satan(R). In 2005, The Boston Globe ran a story on Romney’s judicial appointments. The article stated: Governor Mitt Romney, who touts his conservative credentials to out-of-state Republicans, has passed over GOP lawyers for three-quarters (75%) of the 36 judicial vacancies he has faced, instead tapping registered Democrats or independents – including two gay lawyers who have supported expanded same-sex rights. Of the 36 people Romney named to be judges or clerk magistrates, 23 are either registered Democrats or unenrolled voters who have made multiple contributions to Democratic politicians or who voted in Democratic primaries, state and local records show. In all, he has nominated nine registered Republicans, 13 unenrolled voters, and 14 registered Democrats.
How could anyone be worse then Kagan and Sotomoyer?

Lindsey Graham, Liz Cheney, Megan McCain, and Arnold SchwartzenKennedy's lawyers.
I remember Bush made an appointment so absurd even Republicans wouldn't support her.
