A return to the rhetoric of the early 1990's. "Cop killer" bullets? A myth to begin with but...really? At this point I would be surprised if anything ayone from this administration said wasn't a fearmongering-laced diatribe.
Little by little, day by day. We've been hit with economic numbers so large their essentially meaningless, right? The administration is adding what they want to spending bills. they are putting together their 'health care plan'. anyone hear any major complaining? The health issue alone was killed over public outrage in 1993. How do you think it'll go now? Is ther even the same level of outrage? Even if the outrage were more palpable, do you think our 'leaders' would just give us a "My bad." and drop it? Nope.
The Dems, who we might as well call Progressives anymore, are in charge and they have the votes. The gun issue is a sticky one for them however. It's our only hope on this not going forward - at least not yet. the Dems in Congress remember 1994 and they don't want a repeat. This issue may only get token attention from the administration, at least until the 2010 midterms. If something horrible happens and the Dems were to somehow gain more seats in the Congress, you can kiss the 2nd Amendment goodbye. The "Fairness Doctine" would also probably make a comeback as well.
Does the phrase, "from my cold, dead hands" mean anything to anyone? Really mean anything? As my post title suggests, when it's time to hide 'em, it's time to use 'em. It may come to just that.
