Obama/Congress as gun salesmen. Outstanding!! Too bad its one of the only bright spots in the Obama world because it flys in the face of his ideological narrative.

Its amazing how paranoia can boost sales and reduce advertising costs

Especially when the rumor stems from a gunsmith's blog.:haha:

Obama isn't out to ban all our ammunition and guns, Castle. Jesus-****ing-Christ.

First rule of politics: Never let the facts get in the way of a good yarn.

I can agree with that, I don't think that matters to him one way or the other but he's surrounded himself with people who are, and he so far has shown a disturbing tendency to let others make important decisions for him. Chalk it up to his lack of leadership experience I suppose.

What it boils down to though is that gun owners have good reason to doubt Democrat assurances. A couple years of half hearted courtship isn't going to erase a half century of anti-gun support.

Yes that's nice as far as the topic title is concerned- and I wasn't disputing thta part. But where does it quote Obama as saying that he wants to ban all our ammunition and guns? It doesn't.;)

I concur.

Well really they've never been anti-gun for all weapons. Things like assault rifles and semi-automatic high-powered rifles (like AR-15s) and the like they have been against. I see what you're getting at though.
