This election reminds me of a sign I saw at a Tea Party rally: THIS time we come in peace.

The RINOs need to be the first to go, not the last!

Hehe... Great sign! Too bad though that that time may have passed.

Everybody is too busy trying to figure out which bathroom their child is going to use to get involved in a recall vote.

Colorado’s message is to simply leave the citizens alone.

And the NRA didn’t even get involved until after the locals got the recall rolling. Those guys at the NRA must truly be political masterminds if they can get only the voters who have a vulnerable collectivist to come ask for help.

"Gun control advocates say Colorado recall stifling effort in Congress"
That's like saying that elections stifle seniority.
Or that prosecutors stifle left-handed "capital formation" (peculation, bribery, graft, embezzlement).
Or that Army VD training films stifle R&R good times.
Morons.

Party poop. Pointing out the essential lie ....

Allright Fox News. 1st amendment controls stifled by patriots.

The problem is that they continue to be flamed by their money providers so they (with no decent opinions of their own) try to do what their money providers wish. Therefore the old saying of money buys the law usually works. Knowledge becoming generalized, of who the flamers and bagmen are, could lead to an excessive occurrence of bagmen and bundlers and NGO boardmembers and policy-maven supermen being discovered in rivers around the country.

"The NRA does its job better than our side does our job," said Jim Kessler, a co-founder of Third Way, which advocates for centrist Democratic policies. "They know how to influence and intimidate elected people." The old "if only people understood the issues better, we'd win in a walkover" song .... Somehow I don't think that's what he really meant.
Imagine. Elected poltroons intimidated by the People! Oh, the ignominy!
P.S.: "centrist Democratic policies" = oxymoron of the week

What does everyone think? Will the Navy Yard massacre put anti-rights legislation over the top? Will the typically knock-kneed RINOs cave, or will the Colorado recall results help stiffen their spines more than the latest tragedy hurts?

I don't think it'll make a difference. It'll make Dims and their allies in Congress tense up because the incident was close to home, but it'll wind up having the same net impact as the moron who sprayed the White House a few years ago with his ultra-powerful </sneer> SKS, while the Secret Service countersnipers on the W.H. roof dawdled over deciding whether to kill him. Fortunately, John Q. Citizen jumped the guy and disarmed him , saving his life.

I don’t know, Newtown came uncomfortably close (to passing anti-rights legislation even the PROPONENTS admitted wouldn’t have helped!!).
I’m hoping the repetition of this type incident doesn’t inflame the LIV’s enough to scare the RINO’s. Doesn’t take much, they’re a pretty timid crowd.
