TED NUGENT endorses Mitt Romeny for President

[melensdad]

Title says it all. Can't say I understand it but I'm guessing that Mitt promised to protect gun/hunting rights??? The NUGE would not endorse him without a solid guarantee.

Wow! I thought he would have been a Paul supporter. I'm sure there is a good explanation, though.

So in Ted's old age he no longer feels the 2nd amendment is important?

I doubt that is close to accurate.

As I said in my first post, I'm guessing that Mitt promised Ted that he would protect the 2nd Amendment. Its just a guess.

But one thing that is not a guess, the NUGE would not abandon the 2nd Amendment.

I'm sure Mitt won't change his mind about that!

Mr. Assault Weapons Ban

Didn't Mitt Romney sign into law the permanent "assault weapons" ban for the State of Massachusetts?

This is why he will not get my vote... under any circumstances and regardless of anyone's endorsement.

I think so.

That is exactly why I find the endorsement so shocking.

Both choices really stink. This November is going to be a nose holder.

Romney signs off on permanent assault weapons ban

"Deadly assault weapons have no place in Massachusetts," Romney said, at a bill signing ceremony on July 1 with legislators, sportsmen's groups and gun safety advocates. "These guns are not made for recreation or self-defense. They are instruments of destruction with the sole purpose of hunting down and killing people."

He just told Ted what he wanted to hear. That, or I smell a payoff. Which would be way more shocking than the former.

 

[stewballs]

I will be glad when it is over, there is no good choices on either side.

Payoff... I doubt Ted needs the money that bad. I agree with melensdad. I would imagine that Romney convinced him he would not be part of any anti-gun activity. Ted is probably convinced (like Anne Coulter and others) that Romney is the only Republican that is likely able to beat Obama.

Agreed.

. . . I smell a payoff. . .

Just curious, but how could you payoff someone like Ted? Seriously the guy has literally tens of millions of dollars. What kind of payoff would it take to buy off Ted?

When the government's boot is on your throat, whether it is a left boot or a right boot is of no consequence.

Why the surprise. He's just in the line with millions of other republican sell outs.

Maybe the next time he gets caught poaching, he'll help him get out of it. Ted can shoot a bow(really well) and play a guitar. That's about it.
