NRA Fires Away at Obama-Biden on TV and Radio

Right on, NRA! That’s what this country needs now! The rest of our problems pale in comparison to not having enough guns to go around.

Disgraceful ads !
Barack isnt against guns so I dont get it! To me it just proved the NRA is part of the republican party!
Side question:
Hey Tapper why dont you and other members of the media just launch questions at McCain and Palin ? Why dont you do the chicken thing Clinton did to Bush 1 to them!
Iraq was the American medias fault and letting these people aviod facing real questions is a disgrace.

Here come the republican scare tactics. We don’t need another bush term. Pennsylvania was smart enough not to go for bush/cheney in 2000 and 2004. PA will not go for bush-3 in 2008. Obama/Biden 2008!!!

Another who gives a rats behind what this organization has to say, they have their agenda and the American public at large have theirs.

I can’t wait until this is over and Obama is in the Presidency because i will be shouting from the roof tops
“CLING CLING…cling, cling!”
the clinging has started… ignore the way to solve the financial mess and who got us here…
get up and yell about “guns”
oy.
your houses are being taken away and falling into foreclosure…but yeah this is the right time to fight about guns.
ugh

all I have to say is
remember the NRA and the right wing got you the last 8 years.
how’d those work for ya?

Speaking of guns. A judge just told cheney, “Do NOT destroy your records.”

“remember the NRA and the right wing got you the last 8 years.
how’d those work for ya?”
Pretty good actually.
But then, I work for my living. Didn’t need one of those free mortgages

Aussie,
Which Obama are you referring to?
The hang-with-terrorists-in-their-living-room-to-launch-my-campaign, or the Obama that says they are “just people in my neighborhood”?
The one who is ON THE RECORD in Il. as being in favor of banning ALL handguns, or the Obama that’s on his website?
The Obama who flipped on the DC gun ban within 24 hours?
Who, as a constitutional scholar, told a reporter he’d have to “study” the matter of the DC gun ban?

I think the NRA is way too conservative. They need to be more liberal! No restrictions on any firepower, by God! I think I should be able to buy mortars, claymore mines and RPGs! I have a right to defend my home and family! I will keep fiends away from my door, if only the NRA would REALLY step up for my second amendment rights! ;-)

The issue is that unlike Obama supporters, we’ve been following him throughout his entire career, and don’t just project our hopes and dreams onto him, as you all seem to do.
Here’s something to chew on, that illustrates His Waffleness perfectly, from ABC news…

Obama, the constitutional scholar, seemingly can’t make up his mind on the DC handgun ban. If he can’t make up his mind about these black and white issues, how could he have enough stones to protect our country, if need be?
Full story here.

Cops back Obama-Biden
McCain-Palin, play on the fears of people that do not inform themselves of their lies.
Obama does not want to take our guns he just wants to bring down crime

You can buy tanks, mortars, rocket launchers all day long if you want. But the ATF have already de-milled them. Didn’t catch the sarcasm, sorry. There is a difference between current “common sense” laws regarding non small arms, and the “common sense” laws that Obama wants to impose on small arms.

Who knows what Obama stands for? He votes one way and then promises something else.
Obama scares the H*ll out of me.
Dem for McCain/Palin

“Obama does not want to take our guns he just wants to bring down crime.”
Is this another subtle sarcasm? BO’s idea to bring down crime WILL entail banning guns by pure twisted Dem logic that guns=crime. Ridiculous!

I think the fact that police unions have endorsed Obama tells it all. These are the people closest to crime, after all.

Wm. J. LePetomaine, just look at McCains gun policies. He is double standard and is stooping low to win you over. The NRA fought him in ’96-2000. How many more faces can he put on?
Look at his record. Its dirty. Save the NRA, but stop extremists, with educating Free Americans.

Don’t forget this one-
Pro-gun allies in Congress who were holding off gun show legislation — which would at best register gun owners and at worst close down the shows entirely — were angered when McCain teamed up with Sen. Joe Lieberman (D-CT) and introduced a “compromise” bill to give the issue momentum.
He is being paid to say anything to win the White House.

Actually I think I have a point here.
So many people believe life is precious and should be protected. They are fiercely against abortion because life is from God. (Actually I agree)
From the other side they say not any control on my guns because is my right.
I am sorry I don’ think so! Guns end life.
Anyway gun lovers vote McCain so what?
I don’t have any problem in characterizing McCain .He is a Republican!
According to his own campaign, Republicans are corrupt and incompetent.
Obviously he has inside information!.

“don’t you right-wingers see the logic in my argument? Why shouldn’t I be able to buy a tank if I could afford one?”
this is a liberal’s idea of a cogent argument.
lol

foreclosure, I am a FREE Republican. And I do fear McCains tycoons. Republicans are not stupid. Many just feel they are just voting for our Rep party. Many are blinded. But not all of us. We ARE speaking out about TWO-FACE McCain. His advisors are pulling his strings. THEY want to win at any cost. RESEARCH them all. Vote Independant, but not McCain.

Seriously, all of you Democrats…spend less time “venting” and more time researching “facts” on your Democratic Candidate that even YOU yourself aren’t sure of…because if you were, then you wouldn’t be scouring every online blog and articles to find negative “smears” on McCain/Palin. It’s so sad to hear the hate in your comments towards Republicans. What are some of you so mean spirited? Nothing you can say will change who people really want to vote for so you all should just STOP and pray to God that he helps Americans put the RIGHT candidate into office that will put on Great Nation back on track. This senseless fighting/arguing is only dividing our Country and has got to stop. God bless you all.

I’ve never had a squirrel, deer, duck, pheasant, grouse, moose, or other animal ask me if I were a democrat or republican when I shot, they all died just the same. To think that democrats don’t own guns or hunt is ludicrous and stupid. I’ve always believed in the Constitution and the second amendment and believe that the recent Supreme Court decision on gun rights in Washington, D.C. didn’t go far enough and failed to address all the issues. I also know that my rights under the Constitution will be protected now and into perpetuity by the courts no matter what laws are passed by Congress and signed by the President. This issue is a meaningless issue in the Presidential race. I’m a democrat, own 14 guns, licensed to teach firearm safety by the state of Minnesota, approved to teach pistol, shotgun, and rifle by the NRA and I’ll vote for Obama.

If only the NRA was for RESPONSIBLE gun ownership. but no, they believe that you should have unrestricted access to any weapon or ammunition whether you know how to use it or not or whether you understand the responsibilities you have when you own such a weapon. I’ve got nothing against hunters or people that want a gun for home or self defense. What is the issue with having to show that you know how to use it and the laws governing its use?

Obama voted to keep a felony for a homeowner who defended himself against a robber.
The homeowner was defending his family and his home against a robber using a handgun. Obama said he should be in jail with a felony.
Obama is anti second amendment.
Obama believes in felonies for homeowners who use a handgun against a robber.
Obama supports chicago’s restrictive no handguns in homes policies.
Obama is against the second amendment.
Look at his votes.

-Obama supports chicago’s restrictive no handguns in homes policies.-
Lets look at McCains gun record.
McCain began speaking out against small, inexpensive handguns and he entertained the idea of supporting the ‘assault weapons’ ban. His flirtation with anti-Second Amendment legislation quickly led to a political marriage of convenience with McKelvey.
Within months of the formation of AGS, McCain was featured in radio and television ads in Colorado and Oregon supporting initiatives to severely regulate gun shows and register gun buyers. Anti-gunners were ecstatic to get McCain on board.
McCain has voted anti-gun much longer than Obama has. And McCain has done anti-NRA campaigns in the past. He’s multifaced.

Obama has said and written over and over he is going to do nothing with guns.
How stupid and bliss the NRA is. How easily manipululated the NRA is by the republicans.

People cant be this stupid …can they?

I hope ABC News opens the eyes of America on this one.
Jake Tapper, your the MAN!!! :)

Awesome! Obama’s chickens! are coming home, to roost!

dvine, I am an ex-NRA member, and still have GOOD smart friends in the NRA that has opposed McCain for years. Some branches of the NRA, have good education skills, in handleing guns properly. Yes, some can become very militant, but not all. I support gun limitations, but I stand by my second amendment. I am Voting AGAINST McCain.

Don’t bash the NRA, Bash McCain.

obama is not against guns. biden is not against guns. thsi is just more hate violence and scare tactics from the right.

HOLD ONTO THEM THERE GUNS! WHEN OBAMA /BIDEN WIN, WE’LL JUST PRY’EM OUTTA YOUR COLD DEAD HANDS ON NOV 5TH..

The financial institutions are bankrupt. The dollar super weak
The military are stressed out dangerously. Factories and jobs move overseas.
Home owners become homeless. The allies are pushed away. The states in the Gulf of Mexico in pieces .The Saudis milking what wealth have left.
McCain is desperate to be a President! He doesn’t see the disaster of Iraq coming when he vote in favor of War .He support deregulations and then argue about the circus of Wall Street .A person who talk against the Government but he favors the government Bailout .A person who pick the Vice-president nominee only after one meeting .What you can say about his judgment? Oh just a minute he said the fundamentals of the economy are strong .Probably he was thinking about the family Business
John McCain and Sarah Palin want to be elected like Republicans but they are trying to avoid discussing issues critical for the American families. And portraying themselves like reformers because they are embarrassed of the last 8 years of the Republicans –Bush Administration.
The Republican ticket!
John McCain (We bomb everything)
Sarah Palin (I see Russia from my house)
His aged and ambitious
She is young and motivated.
For him is the last chance to be President
For her the last chance to be his cheerleader.
Their story SPIN, LIES and LIPSTICK

Historyforgotten,
Sorry if I offended you or anyone else who maybe NRA members.. I use to be a mbr but not anymore.. The organization angers me.. I have no problem with anyone standing up for their rights.. That’s the beauty of this great Nation.. Where I have a problem is with organizations like this spewing half truths using fear and BS!

This national mess we are in is due to the democrats and their fat cat friends on Wall Street. Names like Barney Frank, Barack Obama and Chris Dodd keep popping, these guys should retire from the Senate and House is shame. Shame on all of you that are promoting lies about this being the Republicans fault!

What the ostrich and the Republicans have in common.Let me guess
Both hide their head on the sand and pretend everything is fine
An ostrich bury its head in the sand and pretend everything is fine
Republicans do the same and follow McCain
America and the world is suffering with the blunders of Bush Administration
The economy have crumple and the prosperity of many people are under risk not only in America but also worldwide.
John McCain and Sarah Palin promise of change: Is a change to Nowhere
This election is not only about some bridge in Alaska it is about all the bridges and roads in all the o United States because they are all crying out for repairs and maintenance. This is because for the last 8 years the Bush and the Republicans havespent enormous amounts to build up Iraq and they have forgotten about the needs of their own country.

I can tell you from personal experience that many blue-collar hunting and fishing Democrats will be swayed by these commercials. Do NOT underestimate the power of these pro-gun ads. They will have a material effect especially in Penna, Ohio, Michigan, Wisconsin and Michigan.

Sen. McCain Let’s talk about the stupid war on Iraq Thousands of brave Americans dead and injured. Let’s talk about the deregulation of the market and for consequence the collapsed economy. Lets talk of the billions dollars gifted to the oil companies resulting on today price of petrol. * My friends that was Obama fault*.
Senator McCain you are missing the point .What makes a President is the right Judgment. Be cool like cucumber in time of crisis. Not have 7 houses or family business hundred million dollars worth. Do not have the temper to pick a fight but the temper to fight every day make the life of the community around you better.* My friends that was Obana job.*.
Sen. you said the fundamentals of the economy are strong. What do you mean? Your family business?
I don’t know that’s Obama fault to!

McCain’s nine cents short of a dime with some screws loose.. Palin’s from another world, altogether, called lala land.. They win, we’re all DOOMED!

YOu may not like them or agree with them but the NRA is huge .. that’s A LOT of votes for McCain/Palin! Ouch!!

Fear and Smear. I don’t care if Obama was anti-gun, does ANYONE really think he could get guns outlawed in this country?
It would take a 2/3′s vote of BOTH houses and a change in the Constitution, it CAN’T be done by ANYBODY.
Stop being gullible, people.

JR, read McCains two-faced gun control policies.
Spead the Truth. And Thank You.

“Fear and Smear. I don’t care if Obama was anti-gun, does ANYONE really think he could get guns outlawed in this country? ”
Same with abortion.

yeah, thanks for the fact checking and summarizing the truth of these ads, Jake. –one of those “hey, look over here!!” social-issue distractions to take some people’s mind off of what’s really happening.

Ha, I see the Nobaba seminar bloggers are here supporting the messiah as usual. Even with 95% of the television and newspapers behind him Obama can’t pull it off his fraud. Zillions of free positive publicity that McCain didn’t get and he’s going to lose.
More and more people are seeing through his Marxist tendencies and it will show up at the ballot box in November. You Obamabots thought you had it sewed up didn’t you? Wrong! BWAHAHAHAH!

Americans have a chance to repair the damages of the Bush Administration. If they are not ready this time, then they deserve another four years of economic chaos, job losses, foreclosures and open new hostile fronts around the world.. Republicans have spent enormous amounts to build up Iraq and they have forgotten about the needs of their own country. John McCain and Sarah Plain promise of change:* Is a change to Nowhere.*
Nowhere near to help the American people with a real economic change. Nowhere near to build America’s independence from oil.
Nowhere near to help the 95% of the American families.
Nowhere near to help the entrepreneurs and working families to keep jobs in America.
Nowhere near to provide the medical care reform for the American people and the Veterans who they are not fought for the red and blue states of the electoral map they fought against the terror and to keep America on the map.
John McCain. Just want to create more crap stories and he doesn’t want to talk about the issues

Ricardo, schuter, and you have a defense for McCains gun control?

Can anyone defend McCains two-face ads and his own gun control policies? Anyone?

The NRA showing this type of ad at a time like this. Who cares! The stock market just dropped another 300 or so points today. It just goes to show you that the Republicans are out of touch. Since the NRA represents the Republicans, I know who to cast my vote for come November and throw the bums out of office. I’m being directly affected by this mess and I’m angry and scared. I can’t wait to vote.

I know, I know. But you know, I fear Palin becoming President more than losing gun rights. McCain is an old 72 year old man, and not in the greatest of health, who is already stumbling verbally and being apparently forgetful. I would rather see Obama/Biden elected than run the risk of Palin being President. McCain could very well become mentally incapacitated or die in office giving Palin the presidency. It would be the end of America even if gun rights were retained. Palin is bad news. No, I am not a democrat and yes I support gun ownership. But dang-it, Palin scares the blazes out of me along with her high school graduate husband.

“No one is going to take the guns. Worrying about this is a waste of time. I think that is really the last thing we need to worry about. It would never get through Congress. The judges will strike down any attempt.’
Yes, the same goes for abortion.

“I would rather see Obama/Biden elected than run the risk of Palin being President.”
You’re more worried about Palin than you are a candidate that is friendly with an unrepentant domestic terrorist? I admire you.

I heard Obama with my own ears when he was at town-hall meeting in Rolla, Missouri. He specifically said that he would NOT take the guns away from hunters. So, it sounds like a bunch of you idiots are gullible enough to believe those trashy ads. I’m white and voting for OBAMA/BIDEN.

historyforgotten
Yes, let’s a have a debate over the pro-gun merits of McCain/Palin vs Obama/Biden. Let the airwaves fill with information, and the campaign provide as much focus as possible. The more light shed the more anti-gun the Obama/Biden ticket is revealed.
Regardless of the other valid issues to decide this election, the question of which side is anti-gun vs which side is pro-gun is not in question. Which is why your stance claiming the McCain/Palin side is more anti-gun is very interesting.
I’ve been following your posts with growing suspicion. Let’s see, out of 111 comments, yours number 21!
You claim to be a republican, ex-NRA member, and hunter from Ohio. I believe you are not.
I am becomming more and more convinced you are posing as all the things you claim as a strategy to fool people. I do believe you are an Obama supporter, that much is true, but I suspect you are actually an anti-gunner working on behalf of some anti-gun organization. From the wide variation in posting styles there may even be more than one person posting under the name “historyforgetten” as part of an astroturf scheme.
The fact is — you seem to know a lot more about anti-gun and anti-McCain talking points then you know about guns, gun laws, or hunting. The problem is your statements have been too schizophrenic on gun law and the NRA in particular to be credible.

Whoever wins the Presidency is not going to give a rats butt about taking on gun owners.
They’ll have their hands full with this disaster of an economy that they inherit and a couple of wars to attend to.
This type of ad just plays into emotional fear. Any hunter or gun owner who falls for this thinks far too highly of this issue as an priority, which it is NOT.

foreclosure: The only change Obama knows is the change in his pocket and the change of clothes. But Obama does not like the NRA because he doesn’t like guns. I don’t like the NRA and I don’t like guns either. I do not like the idea of hunting and killing animals. I am a staunch animal lover. I like John McCain and Palin but I wish she would stop her hunting. There is plenty of food at the grocers and these animals want to live too. John Kerry hunts also. He shoots birds.

Kinda nasty picture with the gun pointed toward Obama’s head. What backwood’s creature is whining about his precious little “weak man’s” weapon now? We’ve got a lot more to be concerned about than some idiots fear of his own shadow. If you hunt for sport, what the hell of you so afraid of? Nobody’s trying to take away your freakin rights. Poor gun rights advocates, are we not paying you any attention this election? Wimper, Whine, Sniff, Sniff!

The kids and anyone else who wants a gun can get them easily because our government is swayed by those who feel it is an all or nothing fight to retain the right to own a gun. People come together to remove the ease at which our youth obtain these guns and kill each other, often taking one or more innocent lives in the process. No one needs semi-automatic or automatic weapons to hunt. No one needs bullets to pierce armor. What we need is a sense of caring about your fellow citizens and a desire to live safely without fearing that you will be the innocent victim or the intended victim of someone who cares less then you about life and easily got their hands on a gun, and just as easily, without any hesitation took a life so that they could feel superior to the lifeless person lying in a pool of blood, who only moments ago was full of life.

Obama is the one who is truly two-faced, or 50/50, no better than other candidates. Typical politician as usual. Do some homework, please!

i think their should be at least 1 gun for each house hold member. get out america and buy. a great way to spend your stemilous check.

This gun owner has no problem with Obama.

Val,
Actually, the Second Amendment applies to individuals; it is not a “collective” right. This has been upheld by numerous court decisions over the past two hundred years. People who read the word “militia” only think of it in our modern context, not realizing that it had a somewhat different meaning when the
Bill of Rights was being written.
If you need more insight into what the Framers meant when the Second Amendment was written you only have to go to their letters, journals, and speeches for edification. These all make it clear that they wanted every single individual to have the right to bear arms; it was not some “collective” right given to the State. In point of fact the entirety of the first ten amendments do not convey rights upon anyone. They were put in place to safeguard rights that THE PEOPLE already held, to prevent the State from passing laws that would abrogate those rights.
Please, go read the first ten amendments again, closely, and you’ll see that this is true. These amendments were added because the PEOPLE of the various states were concerned that their new government might try to limit the freedoms they had just won on the battlefield. Every single one of these pertain to individuals, and their rights; they have nothing to do with the rights of the State and in fact are clearly laid out to restrict and constrain actions of the State.
(By the way, since you appear to be a history buff, spend some time researching just WHY crime appeared to drop after Hitler came to power. I believe you’ll find it most revealing. You’ll especially like the quote from Himmler regarding the confiscation of guns, a step he found necessary since private ownership “doesn’t further the aims of the State.”)

John McCain sponsored an amendment to S. 1805 on March 2, 2004 that would outlaw the private sale of firearms at gun shows. According to GOA, the provision would effectively eliminate gun shows, because every member of an organization sponsoring a gun show could be imprisoned if the organization fails to notify each and every “person who attends the special firearms event of the requirements [under the Brady Law].”
Check out McCains multi-faced mistakes.

Pass this on to any SMART NRA members.
*Do Not let money hoarding Lobbiest, ruin the NRA. Say NO TO MCCAIN*
MCCAIN is buying corupt votes.
Say no to McCain, and yes to Freedom.
Check out McCains gun policies. Spread the word.

Someone on here said only the military and the police should have weapons and “It worked in 1930′s Germany, when crime was reduced to almost zero.” That’s the scariest sentence I’ve read in a long time! One of THE most powerful reasons to own weapons is to keep the police and the government from running amok … and I first heard that from a Sheriff’s deputy.

The Economy has taken a nose-dive. Unemployment rate is high, spate of home foreclosures are on the increase, Wall street is crumbling and yet, what matters most to these People is Gun.
We will see have far those Guns will take them in the next four years.

The NRA needs McCain to answer where he really stands. Or if he is Flip-Flopping sides.
Ask his Puppet Masters. The Oil Tycoons, at the next rally.
Is He for America? Or His Oil Tycoon Advisors?
Is the TOP NRA officials selling out, for Oil?

We all know that when “ordinary folk” like Obama prefers to refer to everyday law abiding americans, are not allowed own guns, then they are at the mercy of law breaking thugs, and criminals, who will always illegally obtain guns anyway. No way will this out of touch elitist Obama ewould ever get my vote.

Joe,
It’s OK. Don’t feel sorry.
Obama and Biden will win without Your vote.

angelo—-we need obama more now then ever..because mccain will not force thru the regulations we need he will let the rich and big business to continue to rape america….obama is four times as smart as dumby mcbush,and obama can handle this nation without starting more wars.mccain wants to go to war with iran russia and maybe even spain he seems to hate spain.

How does Obama intend to “pay” for all of his fixes? Simple, raise taxes.
Since when is raising taxes not an important issue? Oh, he is going cut taxes for 95% of Americans.
How will businesses compensate for their increased taxes? Oh, increase prices.
Who will pay those increased prices?
Oh, the 95% of Americans who received the tax cut.
Next issue please.

Just one of a a thousand reasons not to vote for the lying, socialist, Chicago street thug. Join the NRA, TODAY!

I only read one comment on here that made sense. The fellow who talked about the first 10 ammendments to the Constitution. People,both McCain and Obama will do harm to those 10 amendments. The do not really care about them. They think that we shouldn’t even have most of them. Lets truly look at what they believe and then look at the independent candidates. It is high time someone other than a Democrat or a Republican was in the White House! Wake up, people! Most of you have Chuck Baldwin on your ballot in Nov. There are a few states whose are unfairly not allowed to vote for him if they so choose. But many of you will have that choice.Lets rock this Country and vote for Chuck Baldwin!

NRA will never support a Democrat, but look what the Republicans have done to
my Country, My Tax Money (700 Billion)
to bail out Rich Republican and Cronies
of the NRA. NRA is just a swift boat
attack Idiots! They wouldn’t know the
truth if they were forced to say it by
gun point. The biggest Loser organizaiton in the country. Check out
what their CEO makes! Americans are tired of the same old LIES. Fear and
Lies are not going to make a difference.
Truth is all that matters and the NRA
never told the truth about anything.

The right to bear arms does not give one the right to kill indiscriminately. Palin is an example of this menality when she runs wolves with a helicopter until they drop of exhaustion then puts a bullet in the helpless animal and cuts off the left paw to claim her $150 bounty. When will this country evolve out of the bloodlust and primitive male dominance theory archetypes? As a nation we appear to be regressing to a violence dominated society, no thanks to guns. I own a rifle, solely to protect those I love from anarchists who promote aggression…much like some of these posts. Sarah Palin acts more like an angry man than a woman. So how is it that any feminist would even consider voting for her? Hypocrisy is alive and well in the U.S., “Do unto others before they have a chance to do unto you”? Huh??? That’s not the Golden rule! Shame on all of us!…Tona Wanagi

I have a gun and a bird dog, and I love to hunt but I will NEVER join the NRA. The NRA is more concerned about selling guns than really protecting our 2nd amendment rights. The NRA used all these same adds when Clinton ran for office and did anyone get their guns taken away? NO!!! Its all a big NRA hoax and most numb-skulls are easily fooled to believe it. If the NRA had it their way every high school teacher would have a gun to protect hemselves and their students, anyone who took a concealed weapon course could carry a gun into a School, Church, Hospital, Courthouse, … NRA are true radicals.

SHOTGUN; THIS NAME IS FROM FROM RUSH LIMBAUGH’S OPERATION CHAOS

Barack Obama is no friend of gun owners and will gladly confiscate any guns he thinks he has the political oppurtunity to. Obama’s rather pathetic attempts to cast himself as a friend to hunters and gun owners are outright lies. Anyways, the second amendment has nothing to do with hunting or “sport” shooting- its about the right of citizens to own guns for protection of their freedoms- which really means firearms designed primarily for military use- Those who think civilians shouldbe limited to “sporting guns” just don’t have a clue

Senator Obama supported the Washington DC gun ban which he later said he knew to be unconstitutional. He still supports a similar ban in Chicago and hails the DC mayor’s efforts to circumvent the Second Amendment and circumvention of the US Supreme Court. … If Obama is willing to circumvent the Second Amendment, how many others? If he is willing to allow the Supreme Court to be ignored this time, what about next time? If he is willing to oppose 73% of the American people, how much democracy is he planning to allow?

“Way of Life”, it’s more that just a title, it strikes home. My home. My children, my husband, my local road stand farmer, my country neighborhood church, my life. I’d like to thank the NRA and the production company and crew for coming to Michigan, for listening to our people, for showing Americans how we live. We are farmers and CEO’s, we are teachers and blue collared workers. We hunt because it’s a way of life, as it has been for thousands of years. We are real. We live off the family land as our relatives have done for generations past. And we will continue to share these values with our own children, even if it means having my children in a national ad. I’m proud to have had the opportunity to support the NRA because “I’m not bitter, I’m blessed”. Well said Scott!

Some of the people posting don’t get it. It seems to me that the point the NRA (I’m not a member) is making has to with basic freedoms and government regulation. There are plenty of regulations in place, the problem is that only those of us with integrity follow them. Government needs to find ways to enforce current regulations before they create more which are used to raise taxes but nothing changes. I’ve had it with politicans in general but listen carefully to Obama, he is about saying what he needs to say to get elected. It’s not about being liberal or conservative, it’s about being realistic. Obama cannot be trusted. Also, remember Gov’t 101, congress is the law making branch of government. Vote carefully on any congressional races. Don’t just believe what the media says, check out voting records and accountability.

Something very disturbing will be revealed about Senator Barrack Obama that will force him to drop out of the Presidential race.

Angelo,
I googled the story you referenced. There was nothing about the firearm used, but there was this…
“Giddings had a long criminal record and had recently been released from prison.”
What a surprise. That means that possesing a gun, or even a single bullet was a federal felony for which he could have been sent away for 5 years on each count (each bullet). I would guess that during his long career he probably was arrested with firearms before. However federal gun laws are amost never enforced against criminals, as the feds prefer to let the states charge them with assault, theft, etc. Then they get out and commit crimes again. It would make more sense to try to get the Feds to use the laws already on the books to put real, dangerous criminals away, than to further infringe the rights of law abiding citizens who own scary looking guns.

Donna – You demonstrate rare wisdom.

1. Obama challenges the 2nd Amendment … The Right To Bear Arms.
2. Obama challenges the 1st Amendment … The right of Free Speech.
Obama pressures all media who accepts NRA advertising.
3. Obama wants a Civil National Security Force … with the same budget as the Pentagon.
So, Obama does not want any opposition, so he stops Freedom of Speech.
Then, to make any opposition defenseless, he wants to take away our right to bear arms.
Next, he wants a Civil National Security force to put down any insurrection.
Sounds like the stepping stones to a leftist dictator taking over this country.
