Nugent Ousted From Concert: Liberty Takes Another on the Chin-Again

Nugent Ousted From Fort Knox Concert Line-Up

Ted Nugent has been booted from the line-up at an annual Fort Knox summer concert following his recent comments about President Barack Obama, a Fort Knox representative confirmed to The Blaze.

The decision to oust Nugent came after “recent disparaging remarks made against the commander in chief,” Ryan Brus of the Fort Knox public affairs office said.

Because the concert is taking place on a military installation, it “would be a conflict of interest since the military has the obligation to be apolitical,” he said.

Brus said they don‘t look at political or social views when booking performers but that Nugent’s comments about the commander in chief crossed the line.

Brus said Major General Jefforey Smith, commanding general at Fort Knox, made the final decision to cancel Nugent’s appearance.

Apolitical my ass...

Whatever. He's a rabid nut-case and his music, well, flat out sucks. They did those concert-goers a favor.

Ah, remember the good ole days for the Left? Wishing death on George Bush and his family daily. Now look at em rushing to silence anyone who dares to speak ill of their Dear Leader. What a bunch of hypocritical wussies. Kudos to Ted Nugent! Right On!

The Major General makes the rules. If any vulgar anti Bush acts were allowed, I'd have a problem with this. I doubt Alec Baldwin will be doing intros, or I HOPE not, he is no better than Nugent.

Then IGNORE him...and tell the Media to do the same, shall you?

Well, i never bought into the notion Socialists/Progressives were tolerant. I knew that was B.S. all along. Socialists/Progressives do not stand up for Free Speech. In fact, no other Socialists/Communists on this earth do either. So why do so many think our Socialists here would be so different? They are what they are. It really is that simple.

The Major General made the decision; is he SOCIALIST/PROGRESSIVE?

Everything for the STATE. Liberty as defined in the Constitution and the founding? NOT so much.

Ever wonder why I call the left and Obama Statists?

Freedom of speech has consequences! Rush Limbaugh is learning that.

Obama has favored the financial sector enough to refute that also. Still, if the rule is applied equally, and those who talk about former Presidents, as Nugent did about Obama; are also unwelcome, no problem.

Favoured it to the point that he is beholden to them as he chastises them...Really?

I wonder if Hank Williams, Jr. will be there...?

I hope the Dixie Chicks are invited. They are great American patriots.

You’d have to determine if the General’s decision was consistent with other similar situations, and what, if any, established policies or criteria were used by the General to make his decision.

Otherwise this is ignorant, partisan speculation on your part, devoid of facts. Which is both unsurprising and typical for you in particular and conservatives in general.

Considering that Nugent has already made his views quite clear on how he views the President, as well as the fact that he likes to make his views well known when he's performing, the base commander made the right choice, because there is a good chance that if Nugent was performing on the base, he'd come out with some more anti-Obama rhetoric, and the base commander doesn't want to deal with the hassle.

I understand why the commander did this, but unfortunately, those who have never served don't understand how the miltary works, as has been reflected on these boards MANY times.

 

[squinch]

It's the military. They take the chain of command and respect for the office of the president seriously. A lot of phony patriot, chickenhawks have trouble grasping that concept.

Like you care. Don't pretend you care about Free Speech. We know you Socialists/Progressives are liars. You shit on our Constitution.

Ted "Shit My Pants" Nugent should never be allowed to perform at any military functions! Ever!
