Vice President Joe Biden is launching a White House campaign of road trips to promote gun control with a visit to Virginia, a state that has experienced its own school shooting tragedy yet maintains an avidly pro-gun tradition. …

Virginia lawmakers have been debating a bill to require that private sellers conduct criminal background checks on buyers at gun shows. The current law only requires dealers to conduct the checks. Some of the survivors and families of victims of the 2007 shooting at Virginia Tech that killed 32 have been leading the push for tighter gun control measures. …

I sure hope Vice _resident Biteme gives us a heads up before he heads down to Texas so we can give him a nice warm welcome.

We like our elected liberal windbags down here....

Well, good for Joe! After he talks all those hard-headed Virginians down he'll go to Texas to educate those rednecks and then here to Idaho where we knuckle-draggers will be weeping with delight at his words of wisdom. I mean, the guy was endorsed by the NY Times, f'Petessake! We are not worthy, Joe!

Oh, please, please let it be true. I have a word or two for Slow Joe and his entourage...maybe just two will suffice, but I'm afraid they'll be kinda loud.

yeah, go to Virginia and talk about the need for gun control Joe. Then come talk about it in Ohio when you’re done.

We would give him a warm welsome in AZ also - after we get this passed.

Remember last year when Biden stated that “Obama isn’t after guns, he isn’t going to take my shotgun.” Liar! Ever notice that these phoney so called pro-gun polititions like Biden and Kerry only own one gun? What real gun owner only has one gun?

“After he talks all those hard-headed Virginians down he’ll go to Texas to educate those rednecks...”

I would bet he is so afraid to come to Texas and say “no guns” that he would drop dead from fright after he crossed our state line onto actual Texas soil. He will never come here.

An interesting aside to this is that it makes Biden unelectable as President.
