* {{Jerkass}}: He comes across as this to many liberal Americans. It does not exactly help Ted's case that to this day he brags about stops on a 2007 cross-country tour on which he threatened to shoot a few prominent Democrats, namely Senators BarackObama, HillaryRodhamClinton and Dianne Feinstein. In Illinois, UsefulNotes/{{New York|State}} and UsefulNotes/{{California}} (the states they respectively represented at the time), no less.

** Also two on ''WesternAnimation/TheSimpsons''. The first was in the episode "I Don't Wanna Know Why the Caged Bird Sings", where a convict (voiced by SteveBuscemi) obsessed with Marge is waiting for her to call him on the prison phone. When he gets the call, it's the Nuge on the other side, asking for the passing of a pro-firearm amendment. The second was in the episode "Politically Inept, with Homer Simpson", where the Nuge asks Homer, in his stint hosting a conservative political show, to endorse him in his bid for the 2012 Republican Presidential nomination.

When not making music, Nugent speaks on behalf of politically right-of-center causes, the Republican Party, and the United States military (though [[{{Hypocrite}} he has admitted to actively dodging the draft during Vietnam]]). He supports hunting, responsible care of natural resources, {{America|Saves The Day}}, hunting, unrestricted gun ownership, hunting, anti-drug activism, hunting, the classic tough-guy mentality, [[TheFundamentalist old-time religion]], hunting, a straight-edge lifestyle, and [[OverlyLongGag did we mention hunting]]? He also has what some would call [[Understatement a traditional view]] of gender roles.

* SexDrugsAndRockAndRoll: Played straight and averted with the Nuge. He is known for his anti-drug and anti-alcohol stances, and claims that he hasn't drank since he was a youngster and his father scolded him for coming home smelling of alchol one night. On the other hand, his womanizing is well-known and even after getting married has often failed to resist the lure of groupies.

'''Theodore Anthony Nugent''' is a rock guitarist and vocalist from UsefulNotes/{{Detroit}}, UsefulNotes/{{Michigan}} who has sold over 14 million albums in the United States and 31 million worldwide. His best known song is "Cat Scratch Fever." Nugent has been touring annually since 1967, and chances are it will only take [[CriticalExistenceFailure death]] to stop him.
