42. Can you blame them for hating Dems?
Edited on Mon Jan-28-08 09:11 AM by I work for workers
Crazy Christians and fleet footed black teens aside, let's just talk about guns.

Sure, there are many good Democrats who respect our Second Amendment rights. Unfortunately, they don't make headlines. The face of the party regularly spits on the Constitution so far as gun owners are concerned.

Look at the last debate:

Clinton: "I respect and support the Second Amendment except I think we need a national database of all guns and gun owners, and a return to the Assault Weapons Ban."
Edwards: "I'm the most pro-Second Amendment Democrat there is, except I support the return to the Assault Weapons Ban."
Obama: "I fully support the Second Amendment, except I'd like to ban the private ownership of all semi-automatic weapons, and of course return to the Assault Weapons Ban."

Richardson was the only candidate who could possibly get support from a large number of gun voters, and he has been gone for weeks.

We all better pray DC loses Heller at the Supreme Court and takes gun rights out of play. Otherwise this might be a much closer election then it needs to be.
