Hey Neanderthals! Guess Who's Got a New TV Show?

Ehh...people must like to watch old rockers. Some like to watch Ozzie and some of us like to watch Ted. I will say that I like his hunting shows because he talks about butchering, processing and eating the game he shoots...which is the bottom line of why I hunt.

He also advocates a very strict conservationist approach to huntng (though he's been dinged for not practicing what he preaches, and rightfully so, I can't argue with the message.).

Different strokes for different folks. Probably not too surprising that a group of liberal women aren't into a hunting show hotsted by a right-wing male. With cable today you can find all different kind of shows for all different kind of tastes.

Gee Wacko! You never learn! It was comments like this that got you beat up by those two cornfeds here in Ohio!!
 
They should combine his show with another reality show... and let him hunt the Great White Buffalo again...

(the Great White Buffalo is an old Ted Nugent Song.

Hunting? It's one of the greatest sports there is. It's so primal you can't help but but being connected. If the harvesting food aspect of it bothers you try hunting with a camera. It takes just as much skill and is just as rewarding.

It's not a sport. It's always rigged in your favor.

WTF, Discovery Channel? Ted Nugent? Really?

That video is from Ted Nugent's 2011 appearance on Piers Morgan's show. He very specifically says that President Obama can suck the barrel of his gun on that particular appearance. With a bit of a smirk and self-important shrug, Nugent also declares himself the next Sam Kinison.

There are many more notable Ted Nugent moments. The one in May of this year where he raged against the commies in this administration, the one in July where he expressed his wish that the South had won the Civil War, and the one in 2007 where he called HIllary Clinton a worthless bitch, which echoes the sentiment he speaks above are but just a few examples of his hateful, ugly, threatening right wing speech.

He's got a right to say those things, but I do not understand why the Discovery Channel would glorify such a foul-mouthed, self-aggrandizing piece of excrement. And yet, they are, according to Media Matters. From the press release:

In Discovery Channel's all-new one-hour special TED NUGENT'S GUN COUNTRY, premiering October 10th at 10PM E/P, viewers will get an inside look at American gun culture through the eyes of staunch second amendment defender Ted Nugent.

Meet Nugent's family and visit his sprawling Spirit Wild ranch just outside Waco, Texas, home to many species of big game that freely roam the meadows and pastures. An avid hunter and conservationist at heart, Ted has his eye on the herd of scimitar-horned oryx that have bred far faster than he anticipated. Knowing the land can't support the booming population, he plans to thin out the herd - and that sends him on a mission. He needs the right firearm and right ammo to get the job done. For that, it's a trip to top-grade firearms maker LaRue Tactical.

Nugent gets his hands on their new OBR PrediTAR .308 rifle and gets a lesson on the finer points of the weapon from renowned military sniper trainer Todd Hodnet. Ted's highpoint of the day: a 1,000 yard target that, when he hits it, causes a massive explosion that even he didn't expect.

On hunt day, Ted and his son Rocco set out at dawn to track their elusive prey and put his new weapon to use. Hours pass without any sign of the crafty antelope. But the father-son duo comes up with a plan and eventually their patience pays off. A firm believer that no animal goes to waste, Ted prepares a festive meal at the ranch that includes guests from Wounded Warriors - his way of giving back to those who fought on behalf of the country he loves so much.

Someone's going have to explain to me how "thinning the herd" involves a gun that explodes targets 1000 yards away. But even more, someone needs to explain to me why an "I love mah gun" special featuring Ted Nugent blowing away targets with his son and hanging out with Sean Hannity's charity is something worth broadcasting at all, much less on the Discovery Channel.

My kids are old enough to not even watch TV anymore. If it's not on YouTube, they don't see it. But for those of you who might actually think the Discovery Channel has content worth watching, you might want to think again, and keep the kiddies busy doing something else.

I guess they didn't learn their lesson with the Palin's. I would rather watch Hillbilly Hand Fishing, then crazy conservative who needs drugs!

Ted Nugent is not just a 'right-wing male'. He's a violence-inciting alpha-male-wannabe who gets off on killing animals and bashing women. He's scum. The perfect hero for the right-wing.

...and half lit young men with far, far to much testosterone in their blood stream who love getting pumped up and banging heads with a real bona-fide mad man......but I don't expect you to relate. It's a guy thing. Now having said that. Leave my freaken Uncle Alone!! ;)
 
Bijou's a city slicker. I'm not a fan of hunting, myself, for that matter.

Also, Larry the Cable Guy has a show on the History Channel...

I have never liked his music, well, maybe "Cat Scrtch Fever". But I can't name any others, just not my style. I have always thought him to be too much. When I wanted crazy, I watched or listened to Alice Cooper.
 
Bijou said:
Whatever, dude. I don't need your justification. Eating what you kill doesn't make the death any more acceptable as far as I'm concerned, but you've managed to get okay with yourself and that's all that matters, right?

Yep, pretty much. Actually I kind of marvel at your disconnect. I grew up in a poor rural area as a child back in the 60's and supplementing your larder with wild game was no freaken joke. Almost everyone did it. When you have mouths to feed and not a whole lot of money and those natural resources are available to feed said family. Well you take advantage of those resources. The urban notion of "How terrible to kill animals!" would have been a pretty alien notion.

I don't even know what it is but I've seen people talk about it on Facebook and the football board. Guess I should look it up.

It is a sick show a spin off of Tiara's and Toddlers, a little girl and her family and she drinks Go Go juice (mountain dew and something else, I don't remember, and attend beauty contests. It is sick! I advocate against these pageants.
