I don’t think this was about banning guns. This was about America, the responsibility to do the right thing when you go vote and electing only candidates who want what’s best for America. Not some bag ‘o sh*t out to destroy America. That’s the way I read it.

I voted for Romney, despite his record of banning guns as Governor of Massachusetts. Don't get me wrong. I don't think Obama is any friend of gun owners. However, unlike Romney, Obama has never banned anything.

Am I worried about Obama destroying the economy? You bet. Am I worried about Obama taking away my guns? Not so much. The only foray into gun control Obama has embarked upon while President has been to loosen restrictions on gun possession in national parks. Oh yeah, he also wrote a strongly-worded letter to a local Arizona news affiliate after the Giffords shooting demanding enforcement of current gun laws ---a position, strangely enough, supported by the NRA.

And then there's Obama's solid 'F' grade he received from the Brady folks (even George W., I believe, got a 'D').

What about the restrictions placed on American gun shops along the Mexican border as part of "Fast & Furious":?
