The Nuge on fire with unsupported Obama claim
A reader wondered about a gory Facebook post by Texas rocker Ted Nugent.
For good reason, turns out.
The stomach-turning image offered up on Facebook by Nugent, the rock guitarist and Second Amendment activist, shows a bearded man man, bloody knife in hand, squatting behind five bloody heads. "One of the subhuman mongrels our president set free," Nugent wrote in the caption. "Feel safer yet?" (You’ll remember Nugent referred earlier this year to President Barack Obama as a "subhuman mongrel.")
PunditFact in Washington, D.C., like the debunking website Snopes.com, concluded that Nugent at-the-least mixed up bad guys.
