Obama's quote has straddled the issue. He wants limited control but understands
a persons right to carry. BS. I bet when a vote on gun issues came up he voted "present" not "for" or "against". He's now saying that running a campaign staff and budget gives him more experience then she has running a state with 77,000 employees and over a billion dollars in revenue a month. He's reaching now.

Don't forget flip flopping on projects depending on what is favorable with the party, not the people.
Claiming to be "for the comms" yet screwing them with supporting the pebble mine.
Trying to stop any and all fish farming.
Being the postergirl for hypocrisy when it comes to "family values".
And yet again, the president's single vote can't take away your guns. You don't need to build the bunker in your front yard yet. |

Id like to congratulate McCain for this brilliant choice of VP. In typical republican fashion, they have created a huge smoke screen which will distract the American people from the important issues- energy, economy and domestic/foreign policies. Now most Americans will be scratching their heads over the choice of Palin all the way to the voting box... bravo Mr Senator.. Bravo.
The original maverick...  |

That is exactly why I've lost a lot of faith in McCain over this pick.
McCain has always been a conservative who's not pushed the social button very hard. This pick is clearly a signal that the base was not excited by him, so they made a strategic decision to make this election about the "culture wars" rather than the real issues, because they were afraid they couldn't win.
Ultimately this may come back to haunt.

I dunno TDF, are you one to throw around the "liberal elitist" line like its some new snappy line that actually means anything?
But hell, its not like the DOD gives contracts to Americans anymore.
I'm kinda shocked there's no outrage that FN Herstal (a Belgian company) owns Browning and Winchester.
Lets not forget the replacement for the M16 is an FN firearm.  |

No
I also certainly don't treat vets like they are inferior because of the fact they were in the military....which is how I read your statement and it definitely rubbed me the wrong way.

And what about using it as an attack? Is that legit? "Oh well I was a vet so obviously you're some draft dodging fgt! har har har!"
A force recon marine, army ranger (5 tours in nam), and an ex airforce test pilot told me I'd be better off getting scholarships, going to college and making bombs. Would you like to question their advice? I considered going in, but took their advice. |

Its only an attack if you feel threatened.
MAC chose to serve. You made an informed decision not to serve.
End of story.
I thank MAC for his service. I applaud you on your career choice.
