Comments on: McCain Courts Gun Owners At NRA

Presumptive GOP Nominee Suggests Obama, Clinton Would Undermine Gun Owners' Rights

[joecoolswat]

Great to see McCain come out and suggest that Obama would undermine the rights of gun ownership.....Remember Obama "Pennsylvanians cling to their religion and big guns"....They''ll remember that come election time....MI and FL too....LOL !!

[truthyness]

The Republicans are playing Blacks for fools....

and they''re doing a pretty good job of it.

[hungryman9]

It was only a joke and if you people can''t take a joke you are in bad shape. Look at the jokes that have been about Bush and Hillary. Never hear them or their people complain. Just wait till Jay Leono David Letterman get hold of all this. If you Can''t take it here wait on all the joke and cartoons that will be coming out later. You folks are pathetic. If Bob Hope and Red Skelton was still living they would have a hey day on this.

A White House spokesman all but admitted that Bush was referring to Obama, although they qualified it by saying that Bush had been referring to others as well.

The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over again and expecting a different outcome.

McCain=Bush.

Don''t be insane, say no to McCain!

[sleepyric]

Hey! all you paranoid gun owners out there...ATTENTION PLEASE: Nobody is going to take your freakin'' guns away...ok??? got that??? Every election cycle you get suckered into voting republican because they use this ploy...every time...why?? Because they think everyone is stupid and gullible..Don''t fall for it again...regardless of what the NRA says...because LaPierre is nothing more than a lobbyist...nothing more...nothing less..don''t fall for it!...

[perceptions5]

You got to be kidding me!

After all this "paranoid" behavior from Obama and other flamming elites in our liberal wolfpack press along with the Dem leadership in our 110th Do Nothing Democrat Congress.................we now find out that Jimmy Carter was the person Bush was referring to.

And Bush was referring to Jimmy Carter becasue he met last month with Hamas, a terrorist group.

Obama needs to apologize to the Nation or resign. We don''''t need anyone politicians that seek to spread "hate and divide" which is EXACTLY what Obama and his elite pals were trying to do here.

Sad but the liberals in our wolfpack press need to "extract" themselves from being "in-the-tank" for Obama.

Because it was the corrupt liberal MSM wolfpack press that pushed this "lying propaganda"....enough!

SHAME ON YOU DEMOCRATS AND THEIR CORRUPT ENABLERS, PRESS

MOST AMERICAN GUN OWNERS ARE TIRED OF THE REPIGS!

John McCain - I see people calling him McSame, McShame, McSham, McBush - I really think he should be called McDick!

"America has become a country of commuters. If you live in New york, or most other major cities, the business hubs are zoned non residential, meaning on the average you live 5 to 10 miles from where you might be employed, and much farther if you live in the suburbs, as most of the working population."

-Anyone in a ''major'' city within 5-10 miles of town has acces to public transportation, especially NYC. So, if walking or biking on occasion is not suitable for you, there is always the bus or subway.

Why anyone in NYC bothers to commute and pay for parking, tolls, wasted gas and wasted time I''ll never figure out. You can walk faster than the traffic moves in NYC around rush hour BY FAR.

[puritan9]

Get ready for McCain''s gun-lobby strategy of scaring the uneducated blue collar white vote that if Obama wins the bogeyman will take their guns away - the same sort of scare tactic used by Bushy-boy with the fundamentalists that the bogeyman will take their bible away. Misleading ads soon coming your way from the Republican GOP!

[harp1963]

The big boys in the Republican Party try and make the regular guy feel patriotic by fighting for gun rights the evil democrats want to take away. The truth of the matter is, they feel no threat, what-so-ever, from a nation that is saturated with small arms. They know for a fact there isn''t a militia anywhere who can stand up to their cronies in the military industry. Iraq was literally inundated with AK-47''s and we basically walked in TWICE and took over their country.

The Republicans just want your uneducated vote. I triple dog dare any of you nuts out there that think you are going to defend or stand up against a military who will be shooting missles at you with satelite guidance systems from ships out in the ocean to form a militia.

You''re just living a fantasy that meant something back in 1776 when a militia could operate in total secrecy.

The Republicans want your privacy, through the "UnPatriot Act." That''s how they will control you brothers and sisters. You can have guns from here to Mars and it doesn''t matter to them. They''ll be watching you from outer space with satelites.

They are tricking you into thinking they are the patriots, when they are the ones who want to control every aspect of your life and your freedom.

Walk? Bike? You''re dreaming.

I remember hearing the stories of previous generations, "when I was your age, I had to walk ten miles to work, etc." I used to think, "you must have had a job that didn''t mind if you smelled like you just walked ten miles."

The cure is re-planning and rebuilding cities. the jobs generated would end unemployment, and prepare America''s crumbling infrastructure for the future that we may still yet have.

Can Republicans ever take a political hit for being ''soft on crime''?

And, if not, WHY wouldn''t they be soft on crime? How does it actually HELP them for crime to go away?

Gun voters need to recognize that the CONDITIONS that breed violent crime are not necessary conditions Republicans want to do away with. Of course, once you actually COMMIT A CRIME, Republicans will spend whatevers necessary to put you behind bars. But actually doing away with the poverty and community disconnect that leads people to resort to VIOLENT CRIME? THOSE conditions are a Republican candidates BEST FRIEND. The LAST thing he/she would like to do, is to do away with the conditions that lead to violent crime.

When we began, your weapon WAS our military. Now, our government can kill you remotely from 3000 feet in the air, and you''ll never meet the one who pulled the trigger. And, increasingly, the one ordering him to pull that trigger has NOTHING to do with American self-defense.

You can keep your pop gun if it makes you feel safer.

You aren''t.

It''s time for a different mentality than to appeal to a pioneer spirit 200 years old. We need controls that the same party prostituting itself for your vote on this ''lowest common denominator'' issue is working overtime to tear down.

If you keep voting Repub, in the future you''ll be able to protect yourself from the street gangs, but who''ll protect you from your own government (who, by the way, would prefer to keep the street gangs going, as long as it works at the ballot box).

[kesac4650]

The threats to interpretation of the 2nd Amendment is very real. We have been disarmed enough. No policeman will ever protect you in the case of a violent crime. They only investigate later.
We began as a nation whose citizens protected themselves. We are rapidly losing that ability.

[haoli25]

What a joke! McBush''s idea of courting the ''youth'' vote is attending an AARP convention.

[blackwater66-2009]

Only the GOP''ers will let us keep our guns, we know what the other side will do once in office ! This is a very very important issue for us Republicans and so is the war on terror. The economy will take care of itself ! If you can''t afford gas, don''t buy it or ride a bike or walk and it will be healthy for you too !!

[glock4me]

Guns, terrorism, ***. Republicans sure have figured out the push-button issues.

Unfortunately, they''''re selling out America while they pander to peoples single-issues.

SINGLE ISSUE!!! The dems are wrong on almost every single issue. Pick an issue, figure out which side would harm America... that is the democrats side of that issue. Unfortunately, the libs cannot see this... when McCain wins in November it will, of course, be because America is mean and racist and have nothing to do with Obama being on the wrong side of every important issue.

[allamr18]

meh these are people he already has in his pocket. it was funny seeing the crowd though, 40 year old white men and older.
