Well I, I, I, I continue to, I continue to, uh, uh, support a ban on concealed carry laws.
I did not know that.
Really, I didnt know that Barack Obama wants to outlaw CCWs (concealed weapons permits). I thought that Id followed this campaign closer than most, but this one got right by me. For the record, I myself hold a State of Florida Concealed Weapon or Firearm License, having subjected myself to a background check, paid the fee (and renewal fees) and demonstrated proficiency and responsibility with personal firearms. Hell, there was a time some years ago when I was berated on a radio show for having submitted myself to the scrutiny of the government for having applied for a permit as a prerequisite to carrying. Now I learn that if Obama wins I wont even have the right to ask the government to certify me to responsibly exercise my rights (obligations?) under the second amendment. Has he been asked a direct question in the presidential campaign about why he feels that way?
Hey, watch this. The setting is a WBEZ Chicago NPR radio program called Eight Forty-Eight, the date is September 13, 2004, as Obama runs for the US Senate. [yes, it is edited for time. You can listen to the entire interview at this link...look for September 13, audio link to "Campaign Notebook, Obama on guns and crime"]
Obama flat says, with pausal prompts omitted, I continue to support a ban on concealed carry laws. As I mentioned, I didnt know that until now. It turns out that it really isnt much of a secret, (I am consistently on record and will continue to be on record as opposing concealed carry) but you wouldnt know that from Obamas campaign website, where you have to find his position on the 2nd Amendment under additional issues sportsmen and not find anything about carry permits.
The windows movie file of the video can be downloaded here.
I apologize for the low quality of the audio in advance.
The mp3 of the audio is here: http://courtzero.org/obamaccw.mp3
His anti-gun stand is mentioned in this presentation - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cgeM1tDXqGE
Big BUMP...NRA anyone?
He wants to take away that which will solve the problem.
Yes. put this in breaking in the morning, please, or everyone else will :-)
OK...this is it...
It’s time to bring out the heavy artillery.
Don’t stop now, keep up the pressure...don’t quit...we will prevail.
Bump for the morning crowd
If this gets on PA tv’s, it’s over for OB.
Someone post or email the media that will deliever this to the people.

BTT
I’m afraid I’m in California and don’t have contact info for Pennsylvania media. Hopefully someone local will take this and run with it.
Bump!
I am not surprised. I am sure no one here is. But this needs to be in an ad in swing states.
So many negatives, so little time (and money left).
The audio is no longer available
I do. Unfortunately, most voters don't. Incremental ism makes these type of laws more and more acceptable to the Sheeple.
He’s evil. And so is his wife.
Boiling frog syndrome.
If you get a permit you tell em where the guns are. I do not remember George Washington asking for a permit.
