VIDEO: Ted Nugent & Mike Huckabee playing Cat Scratch Fever

EmailTwitterFacebookLinkedInYouTube

Okay -- everybody who knows what this song is about, please raise your hand... And if you have any doubt, order the live version -- recorded in London a few decades ago -- from the Cat Scratch Fever album. No one Huckabee announced, a few minutes after playing this, that he wasn't running for president. I'm sure he knew... Pretty funny. Not a big fan of Nugent's politics, but I  love "Fever" and "Wango Tango."

(Nugent was good fun on Howard Stern this morning, too.)

Alabama Chief Justice Who Refused to Remove Ten Commandments Monument Is Exploring Presidential Bid (New York Magazine)

Consider the GOP primary goalpost moved once again: even further to the right. Roy Moore, the Alabama Supreme Court chief justice who made headlines in the early aughts for installing — and then refusing to remove — a stone monument to the Ten Commandments in front of his courthouse, has launched an exploratory committee to look into a 2012 presidential run. (Moore was eventually ordered to remove it by a federal judge, but he disobeyed the order. Eventually, his eight fellow Supreme Court jurists voted to remove it, and in 2003 voted to remove Moore from office — but not before he became an icon for the religious right, with the backing of Jerry Falwell.) Moore has run for public office before — in 2006 he lost the Alabama GOP gubernatorial primary to sitting governor Bob Riley.

Moore appears, from his website, to be a serious candidate. He's working with Danny Carroll, who worked with Mike Huckabee in Iowa in 2008. He's on the record as being anti-gay (he ruled that Alabama should use its powers to punish the practice of homosexuality) and returning Christianity to schools. And he's already tossing red meat to the social conservatives that Donald Trump, Rick Santorum, Huckabee, and Sarah Palin are competing to woo (with varying degrees of seriousness).

In an interview with Details magazine, Green Day frontman Billie Joe Armstrong offers his thoughts on today’s political climate, saying “the Democrats are a bunch of f**king pussies. It was so smart for the Republicans to embrace the Tea Party: ‘We don’t believe everything you say, but we’ll listen to you.’ I get more confused every day.”

He also takes on Sarah Palin and Mike Huckabee:

On Sarah Palin: “I listen to the shit that comes out of her mouth, and I’m just in awe. These are Sunday-school teachers becoming politicians. Mike Huckabee? He’s the guy that diddled you while holding the Bible. He’s so soft-spoken, so Mr. Rogers. Palin is the same—it’s this sneaky way to make Americans feel comfortable, but you know they’re rotten to the core.”

Donald Trump on Today: I Have People in Hawaii Researching Obama’s Birth (New York Magazine)

4/7/11

Just when you thought Donald Trump couldn't ramp up his birtherism any more, this morning on the Today show he announced he has "people who have been studying it, and they cannot believe what they are finding." Startled, interviewer Meredith Vieira asked if Trump meant he had researchers on the ground in Hawaii, and he responded, "Absolutely." The Donald, apparently, is not a believer in fellow potential GOP candidate Mike Huckabee's philosophy, which is that if there was something to find in Hawaii, Hillary Clinton's people would have found it. (That sounds about right to us.)
