Ted Nuggent on President Barack Obama, December 2009

“I think that Barack Hussein Obama should be put in jail. It is clear that Barack Hussein Obama is a communist. Mao Tse Tung lives and his name is Barack Hussein Obama. This country should be ashamed. I wanna throw up.”

Natalie Maines of the Dixie Chicks on President George W. Bush, March 10, 2003

“Just so you know, we’re on the good side with y’all. We do not want this war, this violence, and we’re ashamed that the President of the United States is from Texas.”

As the story goes, there was a major backlash against the Dixie Chicks for their supposedly “anti-American” comments.

To date, those that criticized the Dixie Chicks have been quite silent about the comments of Ted Nuggent.
