show me a soldier in Viet Nam that wouldn't have happily traded Dubya or Cheney any day?
Honestly, you really are embarrassing yourself.
I approve of Ted running...
I wouldn't vote for him... but it would be the most entertaining election season of all time.
The fact that he has 9 kids by 7 women should give him the majority Democrat vote.
I'm thinking they would applaude his progressive and unique parenting technique.
Nugent will have to get in line because theres already a long list of conservatives that run for president whenever they need money.
Couldnt be any worse then what we have now.I approve of Ted running...
I wouldn't vote for him... but it would be the most entertaining election season of all time.
Yes, and just like every one of these conservatives he stands no chance of becoming president, maybe Nugent can become president of his own fan club but he is totally unfit to become president of the USA.
Coming from someone not even in the US.
Actually as I understand it, Nugent is anti-drug. He claims to have been horrified to learn that the Amboy Dukes song "Journey to the Center of the Mind" was about drugs. Not sure I buy that, but he isn't pro-drugs.
And yet your life is so different and it's so easy to justify your choices?
I didn't serve. I never made a claim that I did. But I am a fervent supporter of vets. I find their treatment unconscionable by many of those who claim they care.
That said, there are plenty of vets from both sides of the political spectrum that are pissed off at McCain.
Iraq, Afghanistan vets criticize McCain over GI Bill | MinnPost
Or Bush or Cheney.
I did serve. TD you DON'T speak for all/many vets anymore than TC does. There were vets who were war criminals, that was buried deep and fast- though we all remember My Lai... we tend to not call our soldiers war criminals when they rape, murder, loot the civilian population... makes for bad press.
You would never have enlisted, but you could easily gone through ROTC or even The Point as your family had connections. No slag for a guy to do a few years in service to country as an officer. You combine college with military training, pretty slick.
Oh as an aside... Marine Hathcock won major competitions to include Camp Perry and Wimbledon Cup and wound up an MP in Vietnam. So no telling where a bright, gifted hard charger such as yourself would have ended up.
Oh and when it comes to 'dangerous' stateside flying and Guard units. Many Guard units were exempt from call-up and used by those who could pull strings as a good safe place to sit the war out that didn't require you to learn french.
Bush--both of them--served in the military.
Nugent / Trump 2016.
man, that would be just awesome. :lamo
Coming from someone not even in the US.
Just think of all the great Democratic wet dream combos:
Nugent / Palin
Nugent / Trump
Nugent / Cruz
Nugent / Cain
Cain / Palin
Palin / Bachman
Palin / Trump....
Like Mr. Potatohead, you too can build your own GOP losing ticket. Let's see which combo creates the biggest laugh....
yeah those two war heroes obama and biden are upset over that.
McCain was a war hero-I bet that meant nothing to you in 2008
USAMU doesn't take people as officers. lots of shooters I know with degrees-Joe Dixon, Terry Wentzel DeWitt (fourth at Atlanta, Ladies Double Trap) went in as enlisted.
