There is so much good news that goes largely unreported that it makes me want to scream. As I write this, just a couple of days ago, a 14-year-old boy in Phoenix who was watching his three siblings at home shot a punk who busted through a door and pointed a gun at the young man.

NUGENT: The once and always community organizer

Are you and your campaign team that pompous, arrogant and cash-strapped that you have sunk so low as to create a registry where die-hard Democrats getting married or celebrating an anniversary can request that family and friends make donations to your campaign in lieu of gifts? One would think the master of class warfare would at least know what class meant.

NUGENT: Still stoned on liberty

NUGENT: Ready to roll over the O Team

NUGENT: God bless America’s warriors

Freedom isn't free. Never has been, never will be. Very special warriors have provided freedom at supreme sacrifice since time immemorial. Good people will never forget, and we celebrate Memorial Day with a hard-charging spirit in appreciation for hard-charging warriors.

NUGENT: California nightmare

Will the last American left in California please turn out the lights? And don't let the door slam you in the behind. California isn't going broke. It's already broke and is $16 billion in the hole.

NUGENT: Ignorance of labyrinthine laws is no excuse

NUGENT: St. Louis NRA party rocked

If all of America were just like the great families at the National Rifle Association's 141st annual members meeting in St. Louis last weekend, our country would be flawless.
