His metaphors may have been a bit strong for some to take\u2026<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Nugent stirred up controversy in which he called President Obama\u2019s administration <span style=\"color: #ff0000;\">\u201cvile, evil and America-hating.\u201d<\/span> \u201cIf Barack Obama becomes the president in November, again,<span style=\"color: #ff0000;\"> I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year<\/span>,\u201d Most combative were his remarks calling Romney supporters to action, saying \u201cWe need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November.\u201d<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Needless to say the Washington D.C. based, drive by media, has their panties all in a bundle and called for the <span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/thinkprogress.org\/security\/2012\/04\/17\/465855\/secret-service-ted-nugent\/\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">Secret Service\u00a0<\/span><\/a><\/span> to investigate Nugents terrorists remarks. Nugent told Glenn Beck today (Wednesday 4-18-12) he will be meeting with the Secret Service and will be <span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/news.yahoo.com\/ted-nugent-meet-secret-over-obama-comments-183622828.html\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">\u201cpolite and supportive as I possibly can be\u201d<\/span><\/a><\/span>&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Thursday, April 19, 2012&#8230; The Secret Service today interviewed Ted Nugent and has stated the<span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.foxnews.com\/politics\/2012\/04\/19\/secret-service-no-charges-against-rocker-nugent-for-obama-comments\/\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"> investagation of Mr. Nugent is over <\/span><\/a><\/span>and <em>NO CHARGES<\/em> will be filed. The matter is closed&#8230; Well the Washington D.C. and drive by media lost another one&#8230; We now return you to the the Secret Service hookers&#8230;<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Nugent\u2019s remarks are based, in part, on his concerns that if Obama gets reelected he will continue his quest to disarm the lawabiding American citizen and, he is right. Obama is on record as being opposed to the 2nd amendment and is a supporter of the <span style=\"color: #ffff00;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/www.richardcyoung.com\/essential-news\/obama-supports-un-registration-and-confiscation-gun-treaty\/\"><span style=\"color: #ffff00;\">United Nation Small Arms Treaty <\/span><\/a><\/span>. Currently that treaty stands no chance of being ratified by our current sitting congress but if the election swings to Obama\u2019s favor it (the UN Small Arms Treaty) would be a shoe in once signed to be ratified\u2026<\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Another consideration is the current makeup of the Supreme Court. Currently it is a 5 to 4 vote on being pro 2nd amendment. If Obama gets another 4 years it is likely he will appoint at least one new Justice, to take 78 year old Ruth Bader Ginsburg\u2019s seat, with a possibility of three new Justices\u2026 All it will take to tip the court to being anti-2nd amendment is one more vote\u2026 Obama has, on several occasions, shown disrespect for the Supreme Court his most recent being over his \u201cObamacare\u201d program where he challenged their right to question the new law <em>(wonder if Obama understands the roll of the highest court in the land?).<\/em><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3><a href=\"http:\/\/bigreb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Eric-Holder.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-807\" title=\"Eric Holder\" src=\"http:\/\/bigreb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2012\/04\/Eric-Holder.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"211\" height=\"158\" \/><\/a><\/h3>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<h3>Another consideration is our current Attorney General Eric Holder, Jr. . . .
