The fight is on! Obama and his minions will be looking to quell dissent any way possible.

Odd that the Constitution was specifically designed to shield minority rights from a tyrannical majority. Looks like we have a lot to look forward to.

But don't worry, your library card is safe from the evil Bush-Hitler.

I wouldn't worry. Holder is an affirmative action choice that would not hurt anyone or infringe upon anyone’s rights.

Earlier this year, Holder ... co-signed an amicus brief in support of the District of Columbia’s ban on all handguns and on the use of any firearm for self-defense in the home.

To bad, a McCain - Palin Atty Gen. would not have been a gun grabber.
Some folks had their chance to vote for the only choice
other than Obama and they chose to vote third party or sit at home. Tough luck.

Blue-collar union voters of the nation, rejoice! You voted for Obama, and you won! Sit back and bask in the erosion of your freedoms, and the man you voted for reaches into your home and removes your firearms! Fearless Leader deems that you are useful for voting, but cannot be trusted with a gun.

Remember to tell your Obama-voting frends with the shocked look when he takes away their freedoms, "Hey, YOU voted him in. It's up to you to vote him OUT."

The sad part is that I know people who are not for more gun control and any gun control for that matter but voted for Obama! When asked why, they would say that he couldn’t take away the guns. He doesn’t have all the say. I explained to them that the Democrats would also have the House and Senate. Really they say? I mean don’t people pay attention. This is an example (one of many) where the media didn’t do its job. We really don’t know much about Obama but we’re about to find out!

After the 9/11 attacks, Holder wrote an opinion piece for The Washington Post arguing that a new law should give "the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms a record of every firearm sale." He also said prospective gun buyers should be checked against the secret "watch lists" compiled by various government entities.

"watch lists" = Republicans and Libertarians.

FWIW, and we all know it, taking arms away for responsible citizens will do little to remove arms from the criminals. Carnage will increase, and that is a proven fact.

Prohibition laws work in reverse..

Apparently Holder only likes the idea of government agents using guns, as he did when he supported the kidnapping of Elian Gonzalez.

I wrote my two U.S. Senators, asking them to oppose the Holder nomination. I can see one of them voting against Holder, but the other is an Obama cheerleader. No way will she oppose anything he does.

Holder opposes, and as AG probably would not enforce, the Heller decision. He's never felt bound by court rulings before.

He was the key man in the pay-for-play pardons of a group of Puerto Rican communist terrorists and of fugitive financiers Marc Rich and Pincas Green. Both groups promised votes, campaign money, and Clinton Library donations for the pardons, and Holder and a former Clinton lawyer named Jack Quinn were the middlemen.

Yep, that's a great AG for you. The policies he's not for sale on, he's wrong.

d.o.l.

ILLINOS STATE RIFLE ASSOCIATION

ISRA Alert: County Phone Poll For Gun Control Ordinance Is Still Active

Larry Suffredin and his cohorts on the Cook County Board are up to their old tricks again.

In order to justify passage of gun control ordinances designed to close all gun shops and ban and confiscate most guns owned by citizens of the county, the Cook County Board is conducting a telephone poll where callers can vote for or against the gun control ordinances.

Like everything else in Cook County, this poll is probably rigged. So, it’s very important that you do the following:

1. Call 1-312 -603-6400 and select Option #1 when prompted. At the next prompt, select Option #1 again. Then, when prompted to vote on the gun control ordinance, press #2.

2. You should also forward this alert on to all your gun owning friends and have them vote too.

3. You should also post this alert to any and all Internet bulletin boards or blogs to which you belong.

YOU DO NOT HAVE TO BE A RESIDENT OF COOK COUNTY TO VOTE!

Let’s beat Suffredin at his own game! And, save your guns.
