Conservative rocker Ted Nugent on Tuesday responded to the news that an Idaho Native American tribe had canceled one of his upcoming concerts by lashing out at the “unclean vermin” who made it happen.

“The Motor City Madman” had been schedule to perform for Couer D’Alene Casino in Worley, Idaho on Aug. 4 until the Southern Poverty Law Center caught tribal officials by asking for a comment on Monday. Later that day, the performance had been canceled.

“I take it as a badge of honor that such unclean vermin are upset by me and my positive energy,” Nugent told Gannett Wisconsin Media on Tuesday. Put your heart and soul into everything you do and nobody can stop you. Sometimes you give the world the best you got and you get kicked in the teeth. Give the world the best you got anyway.”

“By all indicators, I don’t think they actually qualify as people, but there has always been a lunatic fringe of hateful, rotten, dishonest people that hate happy, successful people,” he continued. “I believe raising hell and demanding accountability from our elected employees is Job One for every American. I am simply doing my job.”

1. I'll just observe he was happy to take the money of said "unclean vermin"

Well, and maybe marvel that what he is "giving" us constitutes his "best."

2. Sounds like he needs to poop

[Initech]

23. Well he is a "walking, talking hunk of human poop".

[pinboy3niner]

3. And he means it from the heart of his bottom

[unblock]

4. the hate is strong in this one.

[onehandle]

5. The perfect gun nut.

Draft dodger, soiled underwear, child rapist.

Gun culture should replace Timothy McVeigh with him as their saint the moment he dies.

[arcane1]

6. Nothing says "positive energy" quite like calling a race of people "unclean vermin"

Nothing but positivity has ever come from using terms like that

[bluesbassman]

12. And the hits keep on comin' for 'ol Ted.

And what a fine string they are too.

[Frustratedlady]

7. He needs some serious couch time.

Surely, this will be the one to put him over the top regarding his passion for insulting the common man. Sick.

[Enrique]

8. "my positive energy"

and then in the next breath:

“By all indicators, I don’t think they actually qualify as people"

[Voice for Peace]

28. He meant to say "my egomaniacal delusion"

[DreamGypsy]

9. Well, the Nuge made one correct statement....

"there has always been a lunatic fringe of hateful, rotten, dishonest people"

He is the perfect example.

[Louisiana1976]

26. True. He's not only a racist, he's a certifiably insane racist.

[merrily]

10. Irony impaired: Unclean vermin are upset by my positive energy.

Yeah, that's the ticket.



Train Wreck Nugent.

11. To those of you who thought he called the tribe unclean vermin

I believe if you read carefully he is likely referring to the SPLC.

I think even such an ass as he knows not to call a tribe unclean vermin,

[HooptieWagon]

15. No matter who his statement was directed at...

... its rather ironic coming from a confessed pants shitter.

[bluesbassman]

17. Of course he'd backtrack like that if pressed on that quote...

But I'd bet the rent that in his worldview anyone who doesn't think (sic) like him is "unclean vermin" and that would include the tribe.

[HERVEPA]

18. Agree

[gratuitous]

25. I'm thinking of starting a band called The Unclean Vermin

We won't cover any Nugent songs.

By the way, this is the best he can give the world? Maybe he should try something else; the world isn't interested in Nugent's best.

[world wide wally]

13. If Nugent is giving the world "the best he's got"...

I would suggest he take up playing the tuba or something.

[pinboy3niner]

16. He left the best he's got in his draft pants long ago

[narnian60]

14. I'll just restrain myself and say that

there's so much wrong with what he said.

[Snarkoleptic]

19. Take action here-

20. Unclean vermin? Like guys who crap all over themselves to get out of serving in the army?

[pinboy3niner]

21. Uncleanliness = Tedliness

[Initech]

22. Yeah Mr. Pants Crap Fever is one to talk about "unclean vermin".

[Lint Head]

24. Done!!!!

[Gothmog]

27. Nugent is so classy

The Davis campaign will use nugent in the general election.

[nolabear]

29. I think he is playing a fair in WA this fall. I'd like to protest.

Who do you all think I could approach to take up the cause?
