Not Quite The Same Thing, Hannity!

A few weeks back, okay maybe three, everyone probably remembers the Faith Hill/Tim McGraw concert where she tells the crotch-grabbing fan what for. And it was pretty big news that week, all over the place. Even Sean got into the fray.

Of course, he's pretty tight with his longtime friend, rocker Ted Nugent. So....that's the direction he took. Bummer! (did I just say that?)

He interviewed Ted's wife, Shemane Nugent. And after listening to Mrs. Nugent carry on and on about the abhorrent behavior of the women who follow these rockstars with abandon, I had to do a little "pshh!". (okay, big one) Yeah, cannot IMAGINE why those women throw themselves at your husband, Shemane. Could it be....oh, dunno, maybe, well..... it could be this, Shemane: one of the songs that built that wild-game-hunting, open-fire-pit-grilling fantasyland of yours is Cat Scratch Fever!!! It could be that. I'm just throwing out ideas here, though.

Cat Scratch Fever

Well I don't know where they come from

But they sure do come

I hope they comin' for me

And I don't know how they do it

But they sure do it good

I hope they doin' it for free

They give me cat scratch fever

Cat scratch fever

The first time that I got it

I was just ten years old

I got it from some kitty next door

I went and see the Dr. and He gave me the cure

I think I got it some more

They give me cat scratch fever

Cat scratch fever

It's nothin dangerous

I feel no pain

I've got to ch-ch-change

You know you got it when you're going insane

It makes a grown man cryin' cryin'

Won't you make my bed

I make the pussy purr with

The stroke of my hand

They know they gettin' it from me

They know just where to go

When they need their lovin man

They know I do it for free

They give me cat scratch fever

I'm probably gonna get reamed by this one, but Mrs. Nugent needn't attempt to convince me of her indignance regarding fans of the womanly persuasion who get out of hand at her husband's concerts. He can take care of himself. After all, he's been doin it since he was just 10 years old! I believe she knew what she was buying into. She didn't marry Barry Manilow. She's gettin it for free, what is she complaining about?!

I don't think the Tim McGraw incident is the same situation at all. I think it shouldn't have happened to him (not loving how Faith handled it, but not hating it either). However, Mr. Hannity, (whom, by the way, I adore) you cannot draw a parrallel between the married couples. If you can make a good case for it, then I'll send you a dozen roses. But they'll be dandilions. But same thing, really.
