Ted Nugent Unleashes His Manifesto On The Bestseller List
Ever wonder why the collective IQ of this country feels like it’s dropping? Wonder no more. Ted Nugent, winner of last year’s Worst Album Cover of the Year Tournament, is on the Publishers Weekly Bestsellers Nonfiction List list at lucky No. 13 with Ted, White, and Blue: The Nugent Manifesto.

I’m sure that writing Ted’s manifesto was as easy as answering “guns” to any question he was asked, maybe throwing in a “God” or a “Rock and Roll” every once in a while to keep it interesting.
And I think we all know what the most important patriotic statement since the Consitution was:
