Mr. Nugent is more qualified to be President than Obama! October 7, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Great Book! What an insight to the Motor City Mad Man's life. Mr. Nugent has done more to help this great country than Obama will ever be capable. Mr. Nugent's impressive resume of leadership should be the example used for new Junior Senators. His tireless commitment to the exposure of deadhead politicians has helped more people recognize the truth about the lies that degrade the basic foundation of America. Mr. Nugent is a "Get Off Your duff and get it done, don't wait for someone else to do it for you" Kind of American. He is not a Politician he is an American! If you don't see the need for America to return to the foundation in which it was created, please move your overheated carcass to Europe. Don't make this Great Country into another euro liberal stench pot.
Oddly, Ted's not being ironic. September 19, 2008 2 out of 4 found this review helpful
One might assume a book with this title would be ironic. But I forget--Republicans aren't funny. Ah. Read the other reviews to see what kinda folks gravitate toward this book. That's the best review. I respect Nugent's music and hoped he'd talk more about that--but poor guy, he just don't cut the mustard in that regard. But if you want an earfull of his adolescent phallic fixation with firearms and the notion that we need more of 'em--then belly up to the bar. This is the book for you.
In cahoots, apparently, with his editor, The Mighty Nuge immediately disqualifies himself from knowing standard English expression with his treatise on Nuge-speak. OK, fair enough. If you love The Nuge like I love the Nuge--you expect this.
Read it. But don't expect him to say anything intelligent about guns or how to reduce gun violence--about which this book conveniently contains a dearth of acknowledgment. Ted tends to see things as if everybody in his grand, free republic is situated like himself. His prescriptions hardly fit most Americans. This is why his fans tend to resemble him. The Nuge seems not to have a basic grasp of the diversity or complexity of our society, and he's too old now to get started on that.
It's best to let Ted blast away. For a man his age with nearly no hearing in one ear--and absolutely no hearing in the other, who maintains a healthy physique, keeps on a'rockin' as he does--just let the guy be. Although he hates them damn liberals when they say it, Ted's right about our disconnectedness with nature, our need to get elbows-deep into a gutpile in the middle of a forest somewhere. On that point--Ted's words resonate here.
For him and his little coterie, God, Guns, & Rock'N'Roll is a suitable answer if--if you limit yourself to dumb questions.

What is WRONG with you people? July 20, 2007 10 out of 34 found this review helpful
Anyone who buys into Nugent's "patriot" hype is somehow totally misinformed. He was a well-known draft dodger back in the Vietnam era. All of his flag-waving is nothing but a publicity stunt. As for his big talk about values, he has the morals of an alleycat.
Why is it that the radical right-wing these days has to promote chickenhawks and hypocrites as their spokesmen?
Why do so many otherwise fully functioning, well-meaning Americans buy into their bull?
If you want to promote this clown's masquerade as an uberpatriot, then buy this book. If you're truly concerned about the future of our country, then speak out against these merchants of intolerance. America works best when we work together. These guys who try to turn us against one another are doing a lot more harm than good. They appeal to your base emotions, without providing any solutions. Don't be sucked in.
Why so many ratings having NOTHING to do with the book? July 13, 2007 7 out of 12 found this review helpful
Read the book, rate the book...it's really simple.
While it's really a 4 star book (some of the hunting stories do drag on a bit), I gave it five to help balance the oddly hateful reviews.
It's a book on Ted's take on politics, life and hunting told in Ted's usual style. If you like that sorta thing, you will like this book. If you don't like Ted, why not do something productive and read (and review) something you do like?
