Heads up
Just a heads up, I could not find a current statement regarding gun control on the whitehouse.gov website. The one posted here that started this thread has disappeared. In fact, try to find anything regarding guns on the website.

I'd believe it was posturing if I were an optimistic person.

Now that, is scary!
Did a search for "guns" and only found the article that is written for white house touristas, and prohibited items. Duh!
Where did the article go, am wondering...maybe "they" read this thread??? 
Am glad that Reynolds makes "Release Foil!" (great for baking btw...)

I apologize sir, the underlining was suppossed to mean it was a book, but in the age of the Internet, it looks like a broken hyperlink.
Here is a link to the book
http://www.amazon.com/Case-Against-I...2347182&sr=8-1
I loaned my copy from the local library, as for me, it would be a one-time read.

This will lead to gun control through the back door.
http://www.washingtontimes.com/news/...-shot-at-guns/
Control of health care + guns being a "health" issue = gun registration
They're just looking for something to hang their hat upon, and then bring the issue before a sympathetic federal judge.
-mandatory health insurance
-forms require registration of guns
-IRS enforcement
-penalties for not filling in forms correctly
Historically, you're guilty until proven innocent when dealing with the IRS.

If obama gets to install Kagan as the next Supreme Court Justice, we will be in trouble.

Write your two senators and tell them "No on confirming Kagan". And do it like you were voting in Chicago, early and often.

Good luck with that!
1) One never knows what an SC justice is gonna do, or who might "change their stripes" when the balance on the court shifts a bit.
2) Elections have consequences, and a significant portion of our voting populace needs to learn or re-learn that lesson.
3) I didn't like the "borking" of Bork, and don't want to "bork" Kagan - even if she does look like Kevin James.

Mine are Byrd and Rockefeller. Put your hand on the ground . . . wait until it is cold to the touch. That's when they'll vote against her (when hell freezes over).

She has toed the ultra liberal left wing line on every other issue. Anyone who bans military recruiters from the harvard campus because they oppress gays is someone to be wary of.
Nevermind the fact that "don't ask, don't tell" was not a DOD policy, it was President clinton's policy.
Hate to sound redneck, but two liberal jewish female justices from New York City and one liberal hispanic female justice from New York City bodes ill for our future.

Nope. You don't sound like a redneck. You sound like a bigot. The ONLY part of your statement above that makes any sense is liberal. The other stuff is just bigoted crap. Being Jewish or Hispanic doesn't mean squat. I'm descended from both and I'm just to the right of Atilla the Hun (politically speaking). I'm also a redneck. I guess you have a false impression of all three.
