If we ever expect the GOP to again respect those rights, we must treat them like the self gratifying children that they are. Punish them. Spank them. Vote them out of office. If we allow them to behave as dems and treat us the dems would, we will never get their attention or respect.
Yep vote them out only to let Chuck Schumer and Diane Feinstein gain more power. Real good strategery there. Sometimes I think you "Molon Labe" guys are their best friends. Look the AWB ban probably won't even make it through the House, but if you base your vote on one issue, so be it. Just remember that GW Bush did sign a CCW bill in Texas, something Ann Richards wouldn't do.
No, it's you guys who have been so willing to compromise because you were afraid of what was to come next, who are their best friends. You are buying their rhetoric about taking a principled stand on anything.
A one issue voter? You betcha. Freedom is my issue and freedom cannot be defended by words alone.
If Bush or any other president signs the extension and renewal that is working it's way through the House right now (I know it's only in the early stages), I become an instant felon. And I ain't turning NOTHING in to them bastards.
