“Let’s stop the insanity by suspending the right to vote of any American who is on welfare. Once they get off welfare and are self-sustaining, they get their right to vote restored. No American on welfare should have the right to vote for tax increases on those Americans who are working and paying taxes to support them. That’s insane.

“In addition to suspending a welfare recipient’s right to vote, we also need to get our voting system straightened out and eliminate voter fraud. We need to ensure that only Americans vote by requiring polling places to validate the identification of each voter. It shouldn’t take a Motown guitar slayer to come up with these common-sense bargaining chips before taxes are raised on the producers, which will further choke the economy. How about it, GOP?” – Right wing former rock star Ted Nugent, writing for the Moonie Times.

Ted Nugent has gotten himself into a bit of a pickle and now the Secret Service are asking to sit down and discuss his comments made last week.

At last weekend’s National Rifle Association convention, Nugent referred to what he called Obama’s “evil, America-hating administration” and urged NRA members to “to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in November.”

Nugent now says he never inferred any violence.

Umm… ride into battle and “chop their heads off” sounds pretty violent.

Why GOP supporters have to use such violent imagery I’ll never know. As we all remember Sarah Palin caught flak last year when she used violent imagery and “cross-hairs” in terms of “targeting” elected Democrats, one of whom was Congresswoman Gabby Giffords who was subsequently shot in the head.

Kids – stop with the violent language. If you want to win in the fall, just say “let’s go out there and win this election.” Much better for all.
