SHOCK: Did Ted Nugent compare himself to a Nazi?

Earlier this week, following the lead of Matt Drudge, conservative media figures absurdly claimed that Vice President Biden "compared Republicans to Nazis" when he used the term "blitzkrieg" in a fundraising email. As we pointed out, not only have numerous conservative elected officials and media outlets used the term "blitzkrieg" in a political context before, but they also routinely make far more explicit comparisons of Democrats to Nazis.
Well, using Matt Drudge's "standards," apparently Ted Nugent compared himself to a Nazi today in an op-ed he published in The Washington Times:
I'm on my 47th annual blitzkrieg rock 'n' roll tour across America. I have many guitars, oversized amplifiers and plenty of guns and ammo. The American Boy Scout lives. Prepared is good. Unprepared is for losers. Know it.
It would be absurd and dishonest to accuse Ted Nugent of comparing himself to a Nazi here - just as dishonest as it was when conservative media figures played dumb to accuse Biden of comparing Republicans to Nazis.
The American Boy Scout wouldn't soil his pants to avoid serving his country.
You will NEVER live that down Ted "Effluvium" Nugent
"I wait for no one to authorize my pure instinct to defend myself and loved ones. When in doubt, I whip it out."
Maybe he should have mentioned how he feels about defending his country and stepping up to preserve these freedoms that this pantload always talks about but takes for granted.
He's a spoiled little boy, who schat himself to avoid the draft and let others go risk their asses so he could sit on his and complain.
Ted Nugent the gutless wonder.
