Change the law and let him carry it wherever the hell he wants to.
How you like the Senator you campaigned so hard for now?
The issue was never whether or not Webb should be allowed to carry the gun. We all agree that the DC gun laws are ridiculous.
The issue was that he acted irresponsibly by not knowing where he left the weapon. Then he denied it was his and let his "friend" and aide spend his birthday locked up.
For being a former Marine he sure is a coward.
Whats so hard about coming out and saying that 99% of the gun laws in this country are unconsitutional and should be repealed.
Like most of the elected. He is more worried about loseing their job then protecting the people that put them there.
I must admit, I pulled the lever for George Allen, but after his downfall, which is the worst self-inflicted collapse I’ve ever seen in a life of watching politics, I didn’t care that this guy was our new Senator that much.
This guy is the Democrats’ most dangerous weapon. He is the smartest and most defense oriented man they’ve got. He speaks clearly and with expertise about any number of issues. After we whip their ass with Fred, if they were smart they’d nominated him. If they were smart, mind you. Expect him to be sidelined shortly by the Kosmonauts and DUmmies for being a DLC “traitor”.
I'll accept his version of the episode (whatever) and cut him slack based on his service to the country.
The senator said he would not vote for a revived immigration overhaul bill if it provides a path to legal status for nearly 12 million illegal immigrants
He obviously wants to be re-elected.
Yea, I know.
Since webb let his underling take the fall, do you think he turned his staffer upside down and put the staffer’s “privates” in his mouth... you know.. as a cultural show of appreciation and love?

gotta love it
I'm a libertarian for most activities involving consenting adults.
You being a libertarian... I understand that almost anything goes. It’s your right... but I don’t agree with it. You did read webb’s book I take it?

I only read the excerpts distributed by the Allen campaign.
I'm not endorsing aberrant behaviour, I just don't give a crap what other people do.
He speaks clearly and with expertise, and without sounding smooth or scripted. It can't last.
Saying he's my favorite Virginia Senator is kind of like saying Robert Downey Jr is my favorite ex-cokehead actor, but I like the way he plays close to the vest. For instance, I really like that he clearly went out of his way to introduce his son to President Bush AND that he didn't tell the press.
I guess I'm just hoping he finds a way to escape the evil he's living with in DC.
“The senator said he would not vote for a revived immigration overhaul bill if it provides a path to legal status for nearly 12 million illegal immigrants”
I didn’t vote for him, but I’ve emailed him several times on this, as apparently have many of my fellow virginians.
Right now, if this is in fact his position, I’m ok with him being my Senator, as crazy as he is because right now, I feel I need a crazy senator to vote against our crazy president on this issue.
I am a single issue voter right now - I have no party affiliation, just this one issue is all that matters right now.....Amnesty must not pass.
