    Anyone who does not use their brain like Obama or anyone pink white or yellow is a chimpanzee. Let's get that straight. God blesses us with brains so we should use them instead of relying on Hollywood to prop us up like Obama does.

    Of course the comment was racist. And of course the racists claim "What, me racist!?" Because Obama is bi-racial Nugent thinks he is subhuman. However according to the Hybrid Vigour theory mixed race people are genetically superior. Inbreeding vs. outbreeding; outbreeding produces superior genetics.

    Jones you are an idiot. The term "Subhuman Mongrel" was a term used in WWII era by the Nazi's referring to the Jews. It is in no way related to slavery! Let's break this down Mongrel – " an individual resulting from the interbreeding of diverse breeds or strains; especially : one of unknown ancestry." Well like it or not Obama is of unknown ancestry. Subhuman -"Less than human." A person who is supposed to be a leader of people and lies to the people in which he is leading and supposed to inspire is not a very good human being, which I can see calling them Subhuman. If you are going to attempt to slander someone at least get your facts straight. Secondly this is America and we still have the right of free speech. I also find it funny that none of you are offended about Uncle Ted calling the President a communist. You people do nothing but whine and cry because somebody with whom you do not see eye to eye with called your friend a name that is fitting. Stop trying to take everything that is said and twisting it around to fit into your narrow minded box just so you can shout "He's a Racist!" A chimpanzee is a monkey last time I checked not a human being. Grow up and start focusing on what America really needs to to help it's American citizens.

      Halfsquatch, you are calling Van Jones an idiot? After reading your comment, most sane people would bet heavily on Jones over you in the IQ department. Not one rational, defensible element in your argument. Nugent can say what he wants, I guess you have me there. Normal, respectable people can also rip him to shreds for doing so. No president should be subjected to that and we both know where you would stand if Van Jones or anyone else had made those comments about President Bush.

        see that part about Bush is where you are wrong. I think Bush, Clinton, and Bush Sr. Were all idiots. I was a bit to young through the Reagan era to remember much about the financial standing of this country. I am in the point of view that our elected officials have created a hierarchy in this country and I feel it is time for a revamping of our politicians. Fire every one of them. Give them term limits, Lower all of there salaries to that of the median wage of the state that they are representing. Then they can have a raise when all of the people they are voting for get a better way of life.
        Now GR as far as my "I.Q." goes it is truly a moot point. I say that because if you do not choose to educate yourself with actual facts rather than just spouting one thing and then trying to relate it to a completely unrelated thing, well then you get what Mr. Jones up there was trying to do. Relate racism and slavery to a term that was used during the holocaust and Nazi Germany. As far as normal respectable people, well if that was the case our founding fathers wouldn't qualify as normal respectable people then in your opinion. I don't like to assume things about anybody without having known them for a while, but I am going to take a shot in the dark here and guess that you probably think that the no kid left behind policy is a good policy too, because we don't want to hurt anybody's feelings because they didn't put forth the effort to succeed in school, which we all know in most cases does lead to succeeding in life. Now this doesn't mean that you will grow up one day to be rich ( in the sense of money), but actually becoming a productive member of society. Not living off of the government utter your entire life. Don't get me wrong welfare is a great thing when used properly but when (just like all good things) gets abused and misused, well then we get something that becomes a burden on everybody else who has worked hard to their slice of the proverbial pie. Companies as a whole work because every employee form the top down does their job or task. A country works the same way ( large scale of course). If you owned a business and had some employees that were not pulling their fair share of the work or just top showing up to work, would you continue to pay them or would you demote them or fire them? Now we can't technically fire an American citizen for not wanting to work, but we don't need to feed them either, so with that being said would you take your said employee and continue to pay them out or your pocket the salary or wage there are earning to be at work if they just stayed home? I am already excepting the idea's I have portrayed here are falling of blind eyes or deaf ears, since by your screen name that you will not find any logical way of thinking as acceptable and you try and just run around in circles with words but never really provide me with any kind of sustenance to feed m brain in a intelligent debate, but by all means have at it.

      It's unfortunate that you actually blew time off your life typing this absurd ridiculousness. There isn't anything to twist when the term "subhuman mongrel" is used, it's right there in your face, loud and clear. Nugent directed it at the President so how else was it supposed to be taken? He's of unknown ancestry so in your mind that makes it alright that he was referred to in that way. Do you know your complete ancestry? Are you 100% whatever you are? If not then I guess you're a mongrel and your idiocy makes you subhuman. Please give away your computer so the rest of the thinking world isn't subjected to anymore of you. Sacrifice for humanity and just hand it over to someone who will actually enrich the world with something valuable. I'd like to thank you ahead of time should you decide to do this. The world thanks you.

        Actually I do not know my ancestry because I am adopted. Not am I thin skinned where something like someone calling me a subhuman mongrel is going to get under my skin either. Seriously did you not read my name Halfsquatch? Do you think the referring to myself as half man half sasquatch would let something like subhuman mongrel offend me? You need to stop being so sensitive and grow a pair. Perhaps maybe you should read the rest of my article and maybe pick out the points in there that are actually talking about Obama's character and not the names he is being called? If anybody needs to lose there computer it would be you and the rest of the people out there like yourself who are so hypersensitive that you don't even see where the real problems lie. Stop it and be a person and not subhuman like the sheep in a herd. Think for yourself for once and use logic and reason instead of your feelings.

      "The term "Subhuman Mongrel" was a term used in WWII era by the Nazi's referring to the Jews" So in other words you are saying its not ok to call Jews Subhuman Mongrels because of what happened to them. But isn't incarcerating rather ENSLAVING a group of people against their FREE will a form of slavery? Then In the same breath you're saying its OK to call YOUR president a subhuman mongrel because it's America and there is freedom of speech and those words do not relate to slavery yet to the Nazi's who rounded up the Jews in concentration camps, those words were synonymous with the word slave, because that is how they viewed them. Freedom of speech gives you the right to speak your mind, but if your mind is still locked in a prison your speech is not FREE.

    While impolite and crude What part of Ted Nugent's comments qualify them as racist? Mongrel refers to "of unknown origins" or mixed origins. You could refer to a child with unknown parentage a mongrel or even a person of mixed ancestry a mongrel. My genes come from a variety of races so I guess I am a mongrel.
    While insulting and inappropriate ( something ted is known for ) the use of these words does not a racist make.
    Inappropriate use of words like " racist " inflame and incite emotions that can lead to consequences that victimize innocent people and anyone using that sort of language is both irresponsible and dangerous. I have a mixed race household and it enrages me every time I here some moron (especially a moron on television) play the race card inappropriately. Just because a person or persons makes a derogatory remark toward a black president does not make it racist.

      100% white makes it seem like there is not even one non-white racist. Thats not possible. I mean I know its not possible to be racist against whites but there has to be at least one non-white self hater out there to prove your point wrong.. Like I said, they would never be racist against white people, granted, that would be impossible, they could only be racist against other non-whites. People like to say that the good Reverend Jackson or Al Sharpton are racist, but you cant be racist against white people no matter how much you obviously hate white people. The only black racists are people like Herman Cain and Clarence Thomas, since you can only be racist against nonwhites.

      It pains me to say it but it appears to me that this kind of hate is mainstream republican now. I hold this president in the highest regard. He has managed to bring our shattered Bush economy back from the brink and get our young men and women out of the harms way in the Bush wars in the face of unpresidented obstructionism with dignity. While its clear he hasn't been able to enact most of his agenda with the hatred of the republican machine working for the failure of any successes for the American people, I'd rather suffer than go back to the kind of America the republicans seek. The party of the priveledged old white guys who oppress and abuse the uneducated poor is on the verge of extinction. We can wait them out. They are a dying breed.

    And just to be clear – the liberty that strong arm bouncers like Nugent call liberty isn't really liberty at all. It's their warped version of it which leads straight back to slavery of non-whites and women and Aryan supremacy. This is the language they use. If these people ever find power their liberty will be used to destroy the liberty of those who are different from them. We have already seen trends in this direction with the English Defense League. Similar language. Similar cause. It is a very dangerous direction to go. It must be fought every step of the way in the name of true liberty. I hope Texas wakes up before the election.

    What's disheartening is that Newt and the other GOP talking heads who're either defending what Nugent said, or are poo-poo-ing it because it was said by a rock star, not the candidate actually think that they're making valid points, when in actuality, what they're doing is confirming the stereo-types that some liberals/progressives/Democrats have accused them of being for years. Promotion of division, bigotry and hatred, purely for promotion of party over country is what the GOP has become, and that's sad. There is simply no avoiding the mean-spirited, willful ignorance of a segment of the Republican party and it's scary that there don't seem to be enough rational people still active in the party to have much of an effect in any attempts to rein in the looniest members of their party. They'll win elections in certain districts no matter what, and in fact Nugent-like commentary will likely help in many of those districts, but at least I hope that winning a Presidential election is not in the GOP's future any-time soon. The extremists of the right are quite simply not quite right in the head, and it's scary they have as much support as they do.

All under the protective cover of the Second Amendment. I am a Canadian who has lived so geographically close to America all my 64 years that that your history since the 60s just feels part of my life. I am so upset to see this regression in America. These racist, anti-female, hateful, abusive comments and to see them gain traction with even some Americans in the name of liberty is absolutely demonic. There is no other word for it. My wife's parents were French. They experienced firsthand the demonic boot of Aryan supremacy. They fought it, my father-in-law as a 19 year old in the French Resistance. Horrible stories.

    Just read this personal info on "Wilkepedia" on Ted Nugent. Great conservative isn't he?

    In a 1977 High Times article, Nugent admitted to defecating in his pants in order to avoid being drafted into the Vietnam War. [1]

    Family

    Nugent has had been married twice and has eight children. In the late 1960s, prior to his first marriage, Nugent fathered a boy, Ted (Mann) and a girl, whom he gave up for adoption in infancy. This did not become public knowledge until 2010. The siblings were adopted separately and had no contact with one another. The son learned the identity of his birth father in 2010 through the daughter's quest to make contact with him and their birth parents. According to a news report, Nugent over the years had discussed the existence of these children with his other children.[28]

    He was married to his first wife, Sandra Jezowski, from 1970 to 1979. They had two children, son Theodore Tobias "Toby" Nugent and daughter Sasha Nugent. Sandra died in a car crash in 1982.

    In 1978, Nugent began a relationship with seventeen-year-old Hawaii native Pele Massa. Due to the age difference they could not marry so Nugent joined Massa's parents in signing documents to make himself her legal guardian, an arrangement that Spin magazine ranked in October 2000 as #63 on their list of the "100 Sleaziest Moments in Rock".[29][30]

    His second marriage was to Shemane Deziel, whom he met while a guest on Detroit's WLLZ-FM, where she was a member of the news staff. They married on January 21, 1989. Together they have one child, son Rocco Winchester Nugent.

    In 2005 Nugent was involved in a child-support lawsuit concerning a child he had in 1995.[31] It was resolved, with Nugent being ordered to pay $3,500 per month in child support.[32]

Not to mention he is also a known pedophile and had to pay off her parents big time to keep from going to jail.

    The response of the GOP base to the existence and election of President Obama has been a 6-year-long unmodulated shriek of hatred and abuse.

    When called out on such behavior, their spin-doctoring apologists invariably claim that it's all about the President's "policies", and nothing else.

    Intelligent observers know this to be false. When someone of Nugent's ilk explicitly invokes the vilest racialist language of Nazi propagandists to demean the Commander-in-Chief, and a Texas politician embraces such tactics on the campaign trail, the "It's all about policy" lie is revealed even to the lower-information voters. The veil is removed.

      "Intelligent observers know this to be false"

      Actually intelligent observers know this to be the same treatment that Bush received that Republicans also complained about. While i agree its completely hypocritical of them to complain, that doesn't make it at all false.. Unless you will agree that the vitriol hurled at Bush was solely due to people who had a personal issues with him and not issues with his policies. Otherwise, you have to operate by the same hypocritical double standard that the Republicans are using, but that makes you just as bad as the Republicans, not any better.

    There is NOTHING racist about "subhuman mongrel". It is a term, an opinion about an individual. Why is the race card always pulled? It is 2014 people, get over yourselves. Live and let live. Color makes no difference, we are all created in Gods image, and that's a fact. Let those who want to make a statement make it. Those who want to be quiet, that is their prerogative.

    While Nugent may be an idiot and a loudmouth that does not make him a racist. Calling a man, who happens to be part black, a subhuman mongrel based on his actions is not a racial slur. Digging up an outdated reference, translated from another language that was directed at a completely different ethnic group and then hiding behind that to because you don't agree with someone else's politics and your arguments can't stand on their own. THAT IS RACISM. The left has labeled anyone who has said anything negative about Obama a racist. Why, because the real racists, their core voters will respond to it without question and their friends in the media will use it to drown out any criticism that may stick.

    JJ had the gall to post actual issues and for this you all have responded with "Well your guy Bush did worse", "Obama actually saved us from the recession", "If Obama was at fault for Bengazi then Bush was at fault for 911", "Obama never touched the 2nd amendment", "Obama gave us 5 million jobs", "Obama gave us affordable healthcare". OH and you called him a racist for daring to question Obabma.

    Here are some facts for you.
    – He never said he supported Bush. I know I never have and yet I feel that Obama is the worst president we have ever had.
    – Most of the stimulus that "saved us" was already in place before Obama took office. Also this recession was never a result of structural economic issues and was nothing more then a very large bubble bursting and then correcting itself. Our economic base was and is still very strong. Time alone saved our economy.
    – 5 million jobs? More like 5 million part time, less benefits, and lower paying jobs.
    – Obama certainly did TRY to touch the second amendment, he tried very hard but the NRA outspent him.
    – Not only that we have the ATF with their gun running scandal that Obama had to pull executive privileged in a way that it was never used before to cover, well someone's ass. This after swearing that if elected he would never use EP in this way.
    – He did NOT give you affordable health care. What he did was a backroom, closed door deal, again something he promised his administration would never do. Then they scrapped the single payer option that was key to this whole thing and then added the mandatory clause. That isn't health care that is selling out to big business.
    – Also, perhaps you have not been following the news but it's not all that "affordable". Jessica Sanford, a woman that Obama himself called out as a success story after she was able to not only get health care for herself and her son for the first time but got the Gold package has since told a different story. First they said, sorry, the rate we quoted you was wrong, it's twice that. Then they said, oh sorry, no its twice that and not for the gold or silver but bronze. In the end? She can't afford it now AND has to pay the penalty or go to jail. Yes very affordable.
    – Bush did not hold back troops while we were being attacked like happened in Bengazi.

    Why can't you people argue based on the actual facts??? This man isn't a communist, he is a socialist. And in a socialist society it is run by the government AND large businesses with little to no free will of the controlled populace.

    As to trying to call me a right wing white supremacist. Good luck with that. While I look white, I'm of very mixed background. My son is half black and half white, just like someone we are talking about. And he went with me when I voted for Obama the first time. Before Obama I had never voted for a repulican. I have always considered myself a democrat and was mostly proud to do so. While I fully support the 2nd amendment I also support taxing the rich, gay marriage, universal healthcare and allsorts of "left" policies. However I'm not so blind as to not admit when I've been lied to by a con man.

    Politics are not the same as football. You can not be only a Denver fan or a Seattle fan. If the guy you eleceted, who called himself a moderate, and made promises like. I'll have the most open administration ever, or I won't touch pot clubs, or I won't hide behind executive privilege, turns around and does just that you are honor bound as an American to take him to task for it.

    And don't give me that crap that "Well Bush did it to". I don't care what he did. Two wrongs don't make it right!

    When, are those of us who are Christians going to remind our brothers and sisters that we are Christians first and everything else is second, after that. What party we belong to or what color we are is not as important as to whom we belong to. We must call out those who say their Christians and do or say sinful things to the President and others and know their wrong, but if the things they do,they don't think their wrong,thats when we as Christians are commanded to call them out. Now if we don't say anything we are guilty of the Sin of omission. We must speak up. My friend and I have been doing this a lot lately every chance we get. I'am asking my white brothers and sisters in Christ to do what God commands us to and call out the Shawn Hannity, bill o'reilly Ann Coulter and others, and anyone who lies, and it doesn't bother them or better yet they seem to get great pleasure from tearing someone down, I ask that you just do the right thing.

      This is nothing but a racist attempt to promote white supremacy. Caucasians don't want to believe that they were living in caves in Europe and wearing animal skins, stuck in a Neolithic Stone age existence when the pyramids were built. They have been so jealous and in denial that the greatest civilization in History was non-white, it is one of the main reasons they have fabricated lies about Atlantis. Now prepare to be shocked, the primary reason why Caucasians were in the Neolithic Stone age is because they did not become Human until 35,000 years ago with the appearance of Cro-Magnon in Europe alongside the Neanderthals of which they interbred with. Nonwhites around the world were Human 225,000 years before Whites, who are a genetic aberration, an offshoot of a Albino genetic strain that mutated in Europe, after being born infertile, (unable to reproduce), became fertile and multiplied to what they are today and through their violence, racist, sexist, and aggressive psyche are only 8% of the worlds population and yet try to rule the world. By interbreeding with Neanderthals they were set back another 200,000 thousand years in evolution for a total of 425,000 years less human than nonwhites, a race that is on a self-destructing path to self annihilation.

        Well, I have a problem with your logic.. Republicans want to hold all people, white, black, asian, whatever, to the same standard. Democrats want to hold white to higher standards most* other minorities. Democrats claim Republicans are racist. But the Democrat platform of holding people to different sets of standards because you think that some minorities, ONLY because they are minorities, are unable to meet those same standards, is the very definition of racism.

        *This depends on the area. In schools for instance Asians are held to a high standard than whites, which are held in higher standard than Hispanics, which are held in higher standard than blacks.

    Obama is the most radical, destructive and worst President in history. He is arrogant, a pot head, lazy (maybe works 10am to 4pm) incompetent, lawless, apathetic, a fraud, never had a real job, aloof and a COMMUNIST. Obama and the Democrat party are continuing to destroy the great US economy.
    In five years they have; deficit spent $7.3 trillion (most of any Pres.) with nothing to show for it, increased national debt to $17.3 trillion and counting, real unemployment rate of 15%, no job growth, 8.5 million lost jobs, 92 million not working, black/hispanic unemployment over 20%, they hate oil/coal industries, fossil fuels, military, private sector, success, constitution, right to bear arms, over 2,260 soldiers killed in Iraq/Afgn since Obama became Pres., one in five people in poverty (highest ever), created disastrous Obamacare that has increased rates, cancelled insurance, lost doctors, is largest tax increase in history, destroyed jobs and the economy and now costs $3 trillion, wasted billions of taxpayer funds on scam clean energy deals like Solyndra and Ener1 to campaign donors, foreign policy of cowardice and appeasement that has allowed at least two terrorist attacks, Benghazi and Boston, supported worst Sec. of State in history, Hillary Clinton, who is responsible for the murder of Libyan ambassador and three staffers in Benghazi, supports worst AG in history, Eric Holder, who is responsible for killing a border agent and the AP scandal, 48 million on food stamps and increased business killing govt regulation/employment more than any other Pres.

        9/11 and Benghazi have no equivalence, though and resorting to the race card only invalidates your claims even further. The Obama administration lied and claimed it was due to an unrelated video when it was Al Qaida solely while 9/11 was a tragedy that was not enacted by the Bush administration or any President. Only bigots use race when discussing policy.

        Obama, not unlike the past four presidents, is subhuman because they depend on raising the government rather than it be its constitutionally smaller form.

      If you don't like him; vote! You had your chance so shut the F*** Up.

      I look at his stance's and I may not agree with them, but they are far from way out left; the liberals aren't because he is to moderate, even the ACA was modeled after a Republican State plan (Gov. Romney), The Insurance exchanges were the conservative's idea. I think he tried to blend to much into the bill. The liberal wanted a gov't one payer system, they didn't get it!

      I was a Goldwater/Reagan Republican, but I live in the Northwest and I am tried of stupid white trash call this; a coon, a spook, a niggra, a socialist. Just as I was tried of Bush being called a Nazi, War monger, Baby killer.

Policy disagreemants is one thing, but if that is the "conservative" message, how is that going to bring this country together? How is that kind of language going to help "bring" more into your cause? What if someone used the EXACT same language talking about Mr. Abbott and then was used on the campaign trail?

    Would "conservatives" then be "defending" that person? Policy disagreements is 100% OK and vigrous debate (such as this show) is good. But how are we as a country going to come together when our politicians act as if language like that is ok on a campaign trail?????

    Well Shucks,
    I think Ted Nugent is from Detroit but who's counting. That comment probably is pretty nice compared to what some people are describing What's-His-Name with. But lets not lose sight of the real problem. Jobs!

    any time anyone disagrees with obama, they are racist. We made a mistake electing this man, a horrible mistake. The racism is not white to black, quite the opposite….and, America is sick of it.

        The truth is blacks sold blacks into slavery...all around the world. Those who are here (in the US) should be counting their blessings. No other country on this planet would be treating them as well... not Europe, not asia, not anywhere. Time to stop this racial pan handling. Elect people based on their resume and character NOT their race or sex or looks.

        NO, I'm 65. I'll put blame where it belongs. Obama has had five years to pull this country together and has made no effort to do so. Divided as we are makes it impossible to get anything done of value. Obama does not work well with anyone of either party...and that is fact, to argue this is foolish...there is an abundance of facts which prove this. This guy (Obama) was not qualified for the office in resume or personality... and he has not grown into the job. We need to tie him up or impeach him and take our country back. Everything Obama has touched is a mess, domestic and foreign...

      Jerry,
      So all this disrespect of the PRESIDENT of the UNITED STATES is "reverse racism"? Really? Answer me this...Why is it that the majority of white people always scream this from the highest mountain top when Black people point out something that everyone knows is blatantly wrong? Why is it that Jews or Native Indians always get sympathy for the horrors that they suffered from the hands of WHITE PEOPLE..but Blacks are always told to get over it and stop complaining? So what I'm understanding from your juvenile response to this RACIST ass redneck, is that you agree with him. I'm getting that you feel that Black People in this country need to be seen and not heard. It's alright when we are entertaining you..but we better not try to lead you. We are "uppitey" if we try to get a position where someone like you or your buddy Nugent have to look up to us instead of laughing at us. Comments like yours always amuse me. Would you have said the same thing in a room full of Obama supporters? I doubt it. Thank the lord for these here internets.. If it were not for the safety you feel when you are behind your keyboard in the confines of your lily-white world..you would not have have the balls.
      Yeah I said it.

        Jews were always smart, innovators, creative, aggressive,prophetic, business oriented and have been leaders in the fields of , literature, abstruse learning,science, music,art, since the beginning of time - they brought Christianity to the Gentiles ,are counted as WHITES and it's pretty racist of you to separate them from the White race .Which, in turn , is nothing but a social construct created by "flesh oriented Gentiles who rearranged scriptures to suit their perverted self-masturbating , naked, fleshly Pagan interests while thinking they could "get away with it" before the eyes of the Jews– and even worse : God lol.

        But anyways - if Jews wanted to be counted as White , they'd always resist assimilation– God wouldn't let them CONFORM.Jews don't have to hate Blacks to be counted as White like the Irish did. Or start a war of holy vengeance like the Germans. They have full sovereignty over their existence. They can build beautiful pictures in the universe– and bring their innovations to REALITY with full power and full potency and a power that defies the laws of conformity– affecting the whole universe in return. That's what separates them from other Whites.

        They Gentiles sold their birthright to be called " White" they threw away their whole uniqueness and identity in the name of conformity. Jews never done that in their whole existence i.e ,Jesus Christ, Jacob , Moses , Hebrew Tribes AKA Those the Germanic and other tribes always looked up to gain notoriety in the civilized world. (Just so they can accumulate strength given by the Jews to use it against them wink wink )

        Jews would like to be counted as Whites - but among the elite race of Whites if they would ever want to be White - and that elite place in THE WHITE RACE is called " JEWS" But that would be racist of course and would make the Gentiles feel bad LOL Which makes you sir , semi -right to separate from Gentiles in the name of peace & liberalism . It's not the flesh that makes one A TRUE WHITE– but the White light inside. And that's the light the Pagans, Muslims are jealously protective of. It has been Jew given and ALWAYS returns to its source of origination. - FREELY . How sad, that they always seek to corner the beauty - even among their own teachers & rabbis when they came to them– defeated, while in exile ( in order to test their genuine spirit) like ugly witches in the cold. Little did they know... the power these little Jews had... Appearances can be deceiving lol.

        The only reason Jews got screwed in Europe was because of the smallness of their bulk . That with the fact the government took their guns away from them. So let that be a lesson to Americans and whatever Jew , who, in the pursuit of being decent, seeks to push too tough of a gun control law. Gentiles truly feel what it's like to be TERRORIZED citizens now with the Ghetto Blacks.

        The Gentiles couldn't , and would never beat Jews in the civilized manner JEWS taught them through Christianity with other races yes, but not with Jews– even if Jews lost the battle God would win them the war for them.So Gentiles will always have to raise the sword against them if they EVER WANT 5 minutes of fame in this planet. Because they don't have this " metaphysical immunity" ( Don't worry - one day , our Jewish scientist would be able to "prove this" ) It's called " The universe is nothing but a hologram created by the mind– mind shapes the thing being perceived– it's called conscience is a Jewish invention and the most potent minds ALWAYS TRIUMPH over matter"

        And you call that "Jews suffered terrible things at the hands of the Gentiles?" Lol , please. If Gentiles took 6 million Jewish lives , God took 200 million Gentiles ones. Do you see the Gentiles whining about that? GROW UP ! Everyone suffers bloodshed in the name of evolution. And Gentiles are STILL PAYING by having their nations flooded with homosexual indoctrination , seeing Black , Paki, Arab faces in their own Native lands for what they did to the Jews... do you see them whining? Not only that , but their quest to corrupt the Word of God for their own perverted pleasures only contributed to the rise of atheism. So they're even losing their religion. What? You thought messing with the Jews had no repercussion? Let it be a lesson for whoever tries to come against them.

        The only reason your Black race is defended and empowered with the Homosexuals is to defend the Jews from getting wiped off by the Gentiles in the name of their evil lusts for power. If it wasn't for Jews, Blacks & Native Americans along with Gentile individuality would have died off in the name of hardcore conservative values. Hardcore conservative values that would only had prevailed if Jews were treated like the Chosen Ones they are. That would have been the ONLY thing that would have kept their conservatism from becoming nutty.But that would also be considered Jewish supremacy ,right? So instead it's not through submission to the Jews that salvation comes– but through crucifixion. (AKA BLAME THE JOOS! ) You can't serve the master of Christianity and the master of Paganism at the same time. Gentiles learned this the hard way. Now it's too late to revert back Christianity. It's in their blood & conscience.

        Of course they still got the beast inside THEM. Biology is indeed a fearless beast and man's will to kill cannot be completely neutered even with the abundance of free will that one's conscience has brought the human's mortal brain.

        But the Black, Homosexual, mass immigration atheist question keeps them in check. This is how it goes: you either cultivate your conscience to the Jewish standards and LOVE JEWS or you get a taste of the REALITY of the races who got anointed only through the Gentile's God forsaken SINS IN their OWN HOMELAND. = )

        God is big and a just God. = )

    Amazing that Gregg Abbott (an attorney general) would campaign with a known child rapist and call him a friend. It,s sad enough that the American public is getting use to the hatred spewed from the right wing but, I hope we never accept politicians using scum like Nugent to say the things they want to say but can't. How can a state elect people like Gregg Abbott and Ted Cruz? With the racism, hatred, and bigotry that comes from Texas politicians maybe it's time for the US to let the succeed from the union as they no longer appear to share our American values. In 2012 Nugent said if Obama was re-elected he (Nugent) would be dead or in jail. I'm still waiting Ted !!!

        Nugent is a very backward example of what is terribly wrong with this country.
        Left or right policies and/or beliefs should be discussed without all the stupidity we have endured for the last 5 years.

        McCarthy blacklisting in the fifties. Tear gas civil rights/anti war activists in the sixties. Jerry Falwell's hit list of songs/books to be banned in the seventies and eighties. W Bush repeat of Falwell's hit list after 9/11. Voter suppression laws in 2010. You have confused the conjobatives w/real patriots. Add strike beakers in the '20-'30's, and the KKK, it becomes clear who the censors are. CONSERVATIVES.

      Sorry, Mickey Doyle. Know your history. Yes, Democrats, but the parties twisted and the people you called democrats all became Republicans as we know them today. Look at the names of those democrats and you'll see names like Strom Thurman going from dem to a repuke. Pay closer attention if you're going to quote history. Back in the day repukes used be like the dems today until racial intergration hit the South. Lincoln would never be a Repuke today.
