Ted Nugent?
Isn't he the freak that shit his pants on purpose to get out of serving in the military?
Unproven
Ted Nugent said in a 1977 High Times magazine article that he faked symptoms (being unhygienic to appear mentally unfit) and used meth before his military physical to get out of serving.

More and more, major news outlets are relying on “fact checkers” to,
allegedly, ensure that
the news is factual, sources are reliable, and statements are accurate.
In theory, this is admirable. In practice, it has proven to be simply another opportunity for the media to push their leftist agenda.
Fact checking groups — such as PolitiFact — routinely cast judgments while
failing to disclose their own left-wing bias. Their allies in the media try to cast these groups as neutral third parties when, in fact, they are card-carrying members of the liberal echo chamber.
It’s no wonder that the public has so little faith in the fact-checkers. A 2016 Rasmussen poll found that
an astonishing 62% of American voters think the fact-check-ers are biased.
The Media Research Center is
flipping the script on these faux-fact-checkers. It’s time to turn the tables and
give the public the real facts.
A Rasmussen poll found that 62% of American voters think fact checker-ers are biased. According to Rassmussen, 49% of American voters approved of Donald Trump as of January 6th. No other polling outfit had his approval above 41%. And regardless of what American voters think (46% of whom actually voted for Donald Trump), relying on a poll of American voters is no indication whatsoever as to whether such fact checking outfits really are biased or not.
The bald fact is that fact checking organizations more frequently debunk the firmly held beliefs and the often repeated lies of conservatives in general, but Republican politicians in particular, because Republicans lie more than Democrats. Their fiscal policies are failures, their ideas are bad, and so they either have to lie about their records, or smear the opposition in order to stay in office. This leads to very dodgy fact check records.
Republicans tell you that they're going to cut taxes to billionaires, which will create jobs and growth, which will increase tax revenues, and the tax cuts will pay for themselves. If they told you that they're going to cut taxes, which will increase poverty and unemployment, and cause wages to stagnate, and destabilize the stock market, leading to an economic crash and a period of steep contraction, and there will be economic pain for workers for years, who would vote for them?
Republicans have cut taxes on the credit card three times, and the tax cuts didn't create jobs and growth, and the economic crash which has followed has hit the working class workers they promised to help, first. Hit them the hardest too. That's why they keep voting for change.
Republicans keep lying that their giving all of the money to the wealthy works, but it doesn't. It's no wonder that Republicans keep promoting the fiction that the fact checking services are biased, just like they lie about the extent of the left wing bias of the mainstream media.
Republicans keep failing fact checks because Republicans keep lying to the public. Not because the the fact checkers are biased.
Republicans and the Rabid Right keeps getting tossed off of social media because they keep lying, and promoting proveable bullshit, not because Twitter and FaceBook and other social media has a left wing bias.
THE RIGHT IS NOT GOING TO BE ALLOWED TO LIE TO PEOPLE ANY MORE. THE PEOPLE ARE DONE WITH YOUR BULLSHIT.
