Default Obama what the hell are you doing?

Obama to Seek New Assault Weapons Ban


http://abcnews.go.com/Politics/story?id=6960824&page=1

Quote:
The Obama administration will seek to reinstate the assault weapons ban that expired in 2004 during the Bush administration, Attorney General Eric Holder said today.
Don't go nuts the idea will never pass congress. But what it will do is COMPLETELY and UTTERLY wreck Dem chances for 2012.

Obama was doing so well.. Why the hell did he pick now to do this rather than spend the last of his political capital on this in his 2nd term.

Damn, Just Damn....

Quite right. Really, it isn't something he should be focusing on right now. Actually, he shouldn't even be caring about it.

Well with this he obviously is proving that he does not care for congressional democrats. If he is dumb enough to think that repubs wont use this to paint democrats as "Gun Grabbing" and destroy us in 2010 then he needs to be impeached for inability to think!

Yes I am mad. This is giving the other side free ammo after their policies have led to such loss. Are we to spend another 8-12 years with repubs before we learn?

DUMB DUMB DUMB!

Well gosh do you foreigners really wonder why we Americans rarely pay any heed to your constant pompous nagging? Your "sucking d*ck=impeachment" statement shows the depth of your ignorance too.

Here's a clue: You'll notice that Zachstar is anything but a Republican and he's against the ban. Think for a second on what that means. He's also absolutely correct. This will indeed hurt the Democrats chances in 2010, especially given how often President Obama denied he'd go after gun ownership. People are rightly going to see this as a broken promise and all it will do is mobilize his opposition who will happily beat him over the head with it. A stupid move at any time, but especially now when we really need the country to pull together.

Oh and FYI Clinton was not impeached for "sucking d*ck", he was impeached for lying, under oath, about it. Big, big difference.

I though he was impeached because he ruined a perfectly good cigar.

Does Congress have ears? They are not listening to anyone but themselves. Most of it sounds like the release of gas.

lying, hm?

I rest my case.

Btw, if you can't take international criticism, do not post in a forum composed of international people. The days of the old fashioned nation states where every nation can do as it pleases without international reaction died with the invention of the internet and globalisation.

For every household it's own private A-R-M-Y...!

So now we wait for the three inevitable events:

a.) I will get reminded on Germany being a Nazi country.

b.) Everybody gets reminded of that it is all about freedom only.

c.) Everybody will learn that you cannot defend your household with anything less than assault rifles. Plural. And plenty of ammunition. Best is to have an ammo dumb on every floor of your house. And some grenades. Machine guns too, of course. And for the moles in your garden and the rabbits haunting your grass, always have an MP7 with you on your veranda.

These arrrrrre dangerrrrrous times, buddies, so bewarrrrre...!

I always knew that World War III would be triggered in the slumps of New Orleans and Los Angeles...

Does that mean that Europeans are so used to their politicians lying to them that even perjury doesn't phase you anymore?

"Sound and fury signifying nothing". Proper criticism Bewolf requires an understanding of the situation, which I'm sorry but it's obvious that you don't possess that regarding this issue or our most recent Presidential impeachment, so maybe you ought to refrain from making flame bait posts about it until you do, or at least expect to get criticism in return.
