Ted shits his pants again

Today's good news:  Ted Nugget will be dead or in jail in 155 days!

On April 14th 2012 the 3rd rate rocker said:  "If Barack Obama becomes the President in November again, I will either be dead or in jail by this time next year."

Perhaps you need some suggestions on how to off yourself Teddy??

Dangerous Minds | Ted Nugent said he’d be dead or in jail if Obama won: So, what’s it gonna be?

As far as we've been able to tell, the rock neanderthal hasn't demonstrated the strength of his convictions yet. He's only mustered up the courage to tweet. He's got until April 16, 2013 (one year after he appeared at the NRA convention where the video was shot) to make good on his promise. I've got a special bottle of bourbon for the occasion.

Romney's 47 Percent Gaffe Shows He Believes in the (Untrue) Self-Interested Voter Hypothesis - Hit & Run : Reason.com


Many people believe that voters' positions are determined by their objective self-interest.  I call this the SIVH - the Self-Interested Voter Hypothesis.  A massive body of evidence shows that the SIVH is just plain wrong.  Self-interest has no more than sporadic marginal effects on political views.
