Guns don't kill people, over-the-hill redneck rock stars with machineguns do....

Governor Rick Perry of Texas celebrated his second term in office this week. Like most elected officials, he wanted to celebrate this achievement with a black-tie gala, surrounded by those who mean the most to him: his rich friends. It must have seemed fitting to have a politically friendly musician like Ted Nugent perform for the Governor, though this time around the evening just didn’t quite gel for everybody. The 58-year-old singer of "Wango Tango" and "Stranglehold" appeared on stage with prop machine guns and sporting a confederate flag styled t-shirt. That in itself was probably enough to startle the snooty crowd, yet Nugent opted to share his candid views about minorities and non-English speaking people. complete article CB Music
