Ask Ted Nugent - it's always a good idea to threaten not one, but two people with Secret Service details:
"Obama, he's a piece of shit, and I told him to suck on my machine gun," Nugent said in front of a screaming crowd as he brandishes what appear to be two large assault rifles.

"Hey Hillary, you might want to ride one of these into the sunset you worthless bitch," Nugent said, brandishing his weapons.
He also went after Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-CA), suggesting she, too, might like to "suck on my machine gun." Nugent's tirade against California's other Democratic Senator, Diane Feinstein, is too garbled to transcribe, but one can hear Nugent call her a "whore."
Geeze, and the wingnuts claim we're unhinged. Let's hope Ted gets a visit, or at least a firm letter, from the Secret Service.
well, I guess since his reality show was cancelled he has a new hobby- harrassing and threatening people...but here is the thing- I checked the Secret Service website- seems not many are awarded the protection anyways- not boxer, or feinstein...if any of us did this kind of thing we would be in some trouble....

There is something wrong with Ted. At one point Dubya did encourage him to just keep doing what he's doing.... not sure how far that encouragement extends.
Nugent lives near President George W. Bush's ranch in Crawford, Texas, and said he caught Bush's attention at his private inauguration party in 2000. "When he noticed me, he was surrounded by these huge bankrollers from his campaign. He literally swept past all of them and said, 'Laura! Look who's here! It's Ted!' Then he hugged me and took me by the shoulders. He said, 'Just keep doing what you're doing. Don't think that we don't know what you're up to out here. Stay on course.'"

Alas, only the true bush fan base remains.

This is the guy who wa so terrified by the thought of serving in Vietnam that he literally stopped showering or using tp after a bathroom stop...and he's a manly man support-the-troops hero? I just cannot understand. Amazing.
