Ted's politics are just like his music. Highly entertaining, but there's not much substance there if you take a closer look. In a 1977 interview with High Times magazine, he talked about avoiding the draft: "I got 30 days' notice of the physical," Nugent told them. "I ceased cleansing my body. Two weeks before the test I stopped eating food with nutritional value. A week before, I stopped going to the bathroom. I did it in my pants. My pants got crusted up." He doesn't dispute having said this, either. He later said he made all that up, but it still makes it hard for me to believe him when he tries to paint himself as some kind of great supporter of the military. I don't think he's any better, or any worse, than any other loud-mouthed entertainer. He recognizes that there's no such thing as bad publicity, so he'll say anything to get his name in print, whether he means it or not. I give him about as much credence as Michael Moore (on the left), or Anne Coulter (on the right). I don't think either one of them really means half of what they say, and neither does Ted.
