I love my country. I LOVE my state. I love uncle Ted...lot's more that uncle Sam. Here is a picture of uncle Ted. He's a Texas Wildman. I like the sound of that. Going against the grain of his profession, Ted has never been into drugs or promiscuity. He is into rock music, his family, his country and state, his rights, hunting, meat and the grilling/consumption of backstrap, guns and the hunters brotherhood.
Recently, uncle Ted has started writing a column in the Waco Trib's Sunday edition. Needless to say, his writings and opinions are interesting, entertaining, informative and 100% logical. They fly in the face of popular thought and pop culture. He might not be classified as "P. C.", but no one could accuse him of being anti-American (no one in their right mind anyway...)
What follows is one of Ted Nugent's articles taken from the Waco Trib. Enjoy.
Ted Nugent: 'Live and let live' foreign idea to left
By Ted Nugent, Texas Wildman
Sunday, June 17, 2007
I like sizzling meat on the grill. Wild, huh? Anybody? Now, we all know ol' Nuge isn't by any stretch of the imagination a weirdo when it comes to an omnivorous diet.
Especially here in the great Republic of Texas, a smiling, drooling preference for succulent, protein-rich, nutritious backstrap over aromatic mesquite coals is as American and natural and right as Mom, apple pie and the flag. It's beautiful, really.
But a culture war rages against such universal, self-evident truths. It would be laughable if it were not so deranged. Some weirdos actually are on a crusade to outlaw the consumption of flesh.
I have musical touring associates who have been fired from their jobs with ex-Beatle Paul McCartney for sneaking a hamburger.
You heard that right. Fired for eating meat by an animal-rights maniac, hard-core vegan bass player.
The entire agenda of the gazillion-dollar-financed joke known as PETA literally is dedicated to outlawing meat.
Neither I, nor any hunter or meat eater on the planet, has any desire whatsoever to influence any vegetarian's choice of diet or to force them to eat meat. We are the friendly, tolerant Americans.
This is but one of many issues that represent the line drawn in the sand between liberals and conservatives.
Our own intrepid opinion editor at the Trib, my friend John Young, doesn't want to simply make the choice to be unarmed and helpless for himself. He has again recently insisted that you and I must also comply with his soulless condition of unarmed helplessness in "gun-free zones."
Nobody from our side wants to force anybody to have a gun or defend themselves. It is us, the conservatives, who are for individual choice.
Taxation, confiscation
As for the American left: One hears the words of Mao Tse-Tung come broiling out of the mouths of its heroes, when Ted Kennedy and Hillary Clinton et al unflinchingly push for "redistribution of wealth."
Central Texas' own Chet Edwards has the audacity to support taxing the after-tax life savings of American families following the death of a loved one.
The unfair, un-American, unconstitutional death tax literally destroys mom-and-pop businesses across the land. Think about it.
The wall that once symbolized communism is down, yet some still want to give it a shot. Dear God in heaven, help us.
Recently, Danny Glover, an otherwise fine actor, embarrassingly abused his uniquely American freedoms by siding with the communist Venezuelan dictator Hugo Chavez to finance what clearly appears to be an anti-American propaganda film. Nice.
Meanwhile, right there in that communist country, old Hugo is shutting down an entire media network for daring to challenge his heavy handed, corrupt, dictatorial policies.
This is a leader who has proudly sided with terrorist support groups, and Danny Glover gives him a big hug.
If a Venezuelan citizen were to do so with President Bush, I am confident that Chavez would not respect that individual's right to free expression.
Venezuela gives its citizens no right to free expression. Glover must be blinded by the trees in that forest.
Examine the agendas of the liberal "party of peace." Its members clearly don't believe you and I are smart enough or capable of making our own choices in life.
While conservatives "live and let live," the left arrogantly thinks it knows better than we do and will burden "we the people" with more government control until we are taxed to death.
Watch them. Listen, pay attention and blow whistles.
Educate your family, neighbors, friends, co-workers and hunting buddies on how dangerous such control is against the American Dream of individual pursuit of happiness.
Throw off the shackles of government-run slavery. Stand up for individual independence. Enough is enough.
Hey, Hugo and Hillary, leave me alone.

Funny how your last two posts are somewhat about politics. In the first, you claim to hate politics, this new one, not so much you saying anything about them but letting us see what Teddy has to say, funny to me. He has some good points, the PETA people do tend to try and force their ways on everyone else. Im a meat eater, and Im not out there trying to force anyone to eat meat, hey if you dont want to eat meat, thats fine, more for me!

Welcome back to the blog brother, hopefully it wont be 4 months until your next post.

Crazy...I'm sitting at work and for some reason decided to check your blog. I haven't checked your blog in a long time....probably a couple months. Right when I finish reading your article (it couldn't have been more than 20 seconds), I get an email notifying me that you have posted a new article. What are the chances of that.
Anyway, good article. It's crazy to think how people can't eat meat. It's crazier to think how much you could be taxed on life savings. It's the craziest to think Hillary could soon be running this country.
