Liberal gun-grabbing Sen. Diane Feinstein (D-CA) has a new class of firearms she would like to ban — virtual guns. After losing in her decade long effort to ban semi-automatic weapons, the San Francisco Democrat has set her sights on a new form of gun control. Appearing on the MSNBC’s “Morning Joe” with flip-flopping former Second Amendment champion Joe Scarborough, the Senator argued for regulation, | Read More »
Dear Republican Senator: The gun control advocates have now made their intentions perfectly clear. Having demanded that gun control come to the Senate floor, they are unwilling to accept the judgment of the Senate. Rather, like spoiled playground brats, they intend to keep the game going and going and going — until they are ahead. Then the game ends. In the meantime, they will use | Read More »
Two news items should shock even Republicans into awareness of potential doom: -The first, news reports that the “Gang of 8″ has reached agreement on the “path to citizenship” (Think, 20,000,000 new voters voting 71% Democrat, plus Orwellian biometric ID’s and “Brady Checks” for jobs). -The second, an announcement by House Speaker John Boehner on a Sunday talk show that the House would “consider” any | Read More »
Do you like Cuomo’s semi-auto gun ban? D.C.’s microstamping requirement? Rahm Emaunuel’s licensure laws? The Senate is about to vote to make all of these into federal crimes, turning gun-owning Americans into prohibited persons — meaning they would NOT be able to own a firearm anywhere in the country! We have talked about some of the problems with Senate Judiciary Committee Chairman Patrick Leahy’s gun | Read More »
In May, 2009, Republican senators took the unusual step of inviting a pollster to speak to them at their weekly lunch. The pollster told them, in effect, that, if they opposed health care reform, the party would suffer large losses in 2010. The same bogus polls are being used to push Republicans into destroying the largest remaining component of their “ground game” — the Second | Read More »
It’s probably a harbinger of sell-outs to come. But Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell is apparently about to conclude an agreement with Majority Leader Harry Reid which would sell out conservatives and decimate minority rights under the Senate rules. The first of two changes would allow Harry Reid -– and only Harry Reid –- to circumvent the debatable motion to proceed and move directly to | Read More »
Press reports now make it clear what Vice President Joe Biden’s gun control package will look like: – A Feinstein-like semi-auto ban which, according to experts who have done the counting, would ban up to 50% of all long guns currently in circulation and up to 80% of all handguns. Incidentally, if you wanted to keep the AR-15 you currently have, you would have to have a 6-month FBI background | Read More »
It was reported yesterday that Vice President Joe Biden “guaranteed” to ailing Boston Mayor Tom Menino that sweeping gun control legislation would be passed by the end of January. How sweeping? A quick look at Feinstein’s semi-auto ban legislation suggests that up to 75% of all handguns currently in circulation would be banned, along with 50% of all long guns. Depending on its configuration, the | Read More »
Remember the really nasty bully on the school playground? The guy who would use force and intimidation to beat up the other kids? And on that rare occasion when he was actually losing, he’d just change the rules. By brute force. Because he could. Well, he’s probably stocking shelves at WalMart now. But a slimier, more vicious, infinitely more dangerous bully has now emerged on the | Read More »
They Allowed Democrats To Pick Their Nominee For Them. A succession of potential Republican nominees -– Sarah Palin, Michele Bachmann, Rick Santorum, Newt Gingrich –- were bright, attractive, and have compelling narratives. Instead, Republican voters (or, at least, enough of them) bought into this Democratic mantra that only a liberal stand-for-nothing Republican can win a presidential election. Having Nominated A Stand-For-Nothing, He Proceeded To Run | Read More »
