"Our government is wiping it's a– with the Constitution," Nugent said
before a gathering of NRA attendees this past weekend.
"We've got four Supreme Court justices who don't believe in the
Constitution. Does everyone here know that four of the Supreme Court
justices not only determined you don't have the right to keep and bear
arms, four Supreme Court justices signed their name to a declaration
that Americans have no fundamental right to self-defense?" Nugent
asked.
Nugent called on the NRA attendees to go home and recruit "everybody
in your lives to clean house in this vile, evil, America-hating
administration."
"If you can't galvanize and promote and recruit people to vote for
Mitt Romney, we're done. We'll be a suburb of Indonesia next year,"
Nugent said. "Our president, attorney general, vice president, Hillary
Clinton–they're criminals. They're criminals. Who doesn't know the
crimes our government are committing?"
"If Barack Obama becomes the president in November, again, I will be
either be dead or in jail by this time next year," Nugent added.
He concluded with a battle metaphor: "We need to ride into that
battlefield and chop their heads off in November! Any questions?"
Apparently, Ted Nugent's "in jail or dead" comment isn't sitting well
with Secret Service.
"We are aware of it, and we'll conduct an appropriate follow up," a
spokesman for the Secret Service told New York magazine.
In addition, the DNC has drafted an online petition demanding Mitt
Romney denounce "Nugent's hateful speech."
Nugent is definitely not backing down from his comments.
"I will stand by my speech," Nugent told Loesch, adding that Wasserman
Schultz as a "brain-dead, soulless, heartless idiot."

..... made at last weekend's NRA convention fueled the liberal media
and created hours of outrage on radio and television for both the Left
and Right. There were even some reports that Nugent was being
questioned by the Secret Service.
But what is the real story?
Has Ted Nugent been questioned by the Secret Service?
Were his comments actual "threats of physical violence" to the
president and Democrats?
Let's allow Ted to explain it all.
"First of all, I'm the master of metaphors," Nugent told radio host
Joe Pags, and then went on to take a shot at his critics: "…and nobody
needs an interpreter when i speak except [DNC Chair] Wasserman Schultz
and the Marxist czars in the Obama administration and the ultra-
leftist America-hating media out there. So I think everybody knows
what I meant."
"Obviously our American dream is dead if this president continuous to
spend our great great granchidlren's money at an irresponsibly and
uncountable place. And certainly we're be in jail because we'll become
subservient and addicted to Fedzilla — the wasteful, money-burning
monster that is the federal government right now."
He added: "When I say 'rip their heads off,' I'm talking figuratively
that we need to go to the voting booth and fire these people!"
Over the weekend, Nugent said "If Barack Obama becomes the president
in November, again, I will be either be dead or in jail by this time
next year," and "We need to ride into that battlefield and chop their
heads off in November! Any questions?" That sent Democrats like
Wasserman Schultz scrambling, and even prompted the Secret Service to
say it was probing Nugent's comments.
So has he heard from the authorities? Not yet.
"Whether there is an actual investigation on my speech at the NRA or
not, I will find out sooner or later. But I'm more than happy to talk
to the heroes of the Secret Service. … But I look forward to speaking
with them if they wish to speak with me, because I stand by my speech
at the NRA, and I stand by the fact that we have to go to the voting
booth and exercise out duty as citizens of America by voting our
conscience, whatever hat conscience might be."
