Not on the Gun Issue . This thread is about gun control . McCain has been consistent in his opposition to the AWB and AWB-2 . Bush said he would support it if it made it to his desk ...it was a wink and a nod to get elected , but he still said it .
McCain has not shied away from his opposition to the AWB-2 . McCain has indeed ,in the past, flirted with closing the so-called “ gun show loophole “ , but that was the extent of it .
Oh and please don’t forget , Bush signed into law McCain / Feingold when he could have stopped it in his tracks .
Yeah...there ain’t nothing moderate about these fools. They can’t beat us so the want to deceive us into getting our guns.
Take it from someone in the used car business for a long time. Never say “honestly” the second you say it, you imply everything before was BS. Always use “frankly” Thats a word you should look out for.....
I noticed that he didn’t say anything about being able to keep your handgun.
I think that one thing those of us in the gun rights movement have failed to do is to point out to sportsmen how tough the rats make it for them to hunt and fish. Let’s face it, there are probably about 30% of gun owners who really don’t care about the right to bear arms so long as they can keep their hunting guns and maybe a pistol for self-defense. The thing we need to point out to these folks is that the rats are a nightmare when it comes to hunting and fishing regulations as well.
Obama picked Biden. McCain picked Palin. That should tell you who really supports guns
Or “As we All know.”
McCain was against the DC gun ban even though he would not win a single vote there. That proves that he really believes in the 2nd amendment...it’s not about hunting. It’s about freedom from tyranny.
It was John McCain and not Sarah Palin who said:
“The Second Amendment isn’t some archaic custom that matters only to rural Americans, who find solace in firearms out of frustration with their economic circumstances. The Second Amendment is unique in the world. It guarantees an individual right to keep and bear arms. To argue anything else is to reject the clear meaning of our Founding Fathers.”
I would ask the Obama campaign to list the specific pro-gun bills Obama voted FOR while in either the Illinois or U.S. Senate.
Stupid is as stupid does. If he always votes againsts guns, why would anyone think he would be pro-gun as president?
Now, apply the same test to McCain.
You’re asking where in the hell is the NRA. That’s pathetic. The NRA is wondering where in the hell is the 75 million gun owners who don’t do anything except sit on the sidelines.
There are four million NRA members. There are forty million members of the antigun AARP.
Yeah, a yearly membership costs $35, its not going to break the bank.
In the meantime, maybe our side needs to do a little of this stealth (i.e. false) advertising. We could have a group that calls itself abortion on demands for America. This group could claim that McCain wants to have as many abortions on demand as possible. Thats about the same integrity as this “American and Hunters Shooting Association” has.
That ad is playing in Nevada as well. Heard it this morning on the way into work. Barry Hussein is coming to Nevada this week and I can’t understand it. He’s not going to Union rich Vegas but is instead headed out to Elko. That is bigtime ranching and cowboy country. That county usually votes 70-75% Republican. Maybe he hopes to bring it down to a more respectable 68-73%.
The comments at the source seem to acknowledge what he would do if he had the votes.
Exactly.
Believe it or not. BHO voted for a ban on gun confiscations during emergencies like Katrina.
This is why they can’t understand how to deal with Palin.
What you see is what she is. Authenticity.
I’d really like to bait them into exposing what they really believe, but they ARE smarter than that.
I own this:
Do you have a problem with this fact?
Sincerely,
