Progressive bloggers erupted in fury over controversial comments
about President Barack Obama by rocker Ted Nugent and complained about a
lack of media coverage, especially compared with the super-saturation
reporting on Hilary Rosen’s remarks last week about stay-at-home moms.
Nugent, who has endorsed Mitt Romney, said over the weekend,
“We need to ride into that battlefield and chop their heads off in
November … “If Barack Obama becomes the president in November again, I
will either be dead or in jail by this time next year. … Our president,
attorney general, our vice president, Hillary Clinton — they’re
criminals, they’re criminals.”
“Ted Nugent might think twice before bragging about
chopping off the heads of his political opponents,” reacted Alan Colmes
at his blog, Liberaland.
Other liberal blogs rushed to comment on the issue as well, hoping to create a Rosen-style furor over the comments.
