Comments on: McCain Courts Gun Owners At NRA

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

[ubrew12]

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

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

It feels nice to have somebody "court" my vote. Nobody will win the general without kissing the a$$es of us white guys.

However, McCain is wasting his time because gun owners will almost certainly vote for him because of the horrible voting record of his opponent (either Clinton or Osama).

[jesterbelle]

I''m all for guns.It is MY business whether I want one or not.What I''m not for is a bunch of idiots that vote in facist jerks on the promise of not doing anything to take their guns away from them.Same is true with abortion.It is murder,and yet the people that are against it will vote in some bbastard that exploits his fellow man to death.WAKE UP,KNOTHEADS!THESE PEOPLE WILL BE THE ONES THAT TAKE YOUR GUNS AWAY WHEN THEY FEEL THAT YOU ARE A THREAT TO THEIR PLANS,AND MAY DO SOMETHING TO STOP THEM.

McCain is using the same old stale playbook to scare the ignorant into voting Republican.

Obama hasn''t said anything about taking your guns, or your swastikas, away.

Relax, Neocons. It will be over soon.

Well then could we at least get him to drop his pants and grab his ankles, because I can''''t understand a thing he''''s saying.

Well he is a republican, so he should be comfortable assuming a wide stance and bending over for you if you tell him you are a lobbyist.

"Why do republicans always trot out this old chestnut? To significantly change the 2nd admendment, a bill would need to pass both houses of the legislature, by a two-thirds majority. Do you really think that could be done? Are there no gun owners in the House, are there no gun owners in the Senate. Get real. Even if no republicans existed (god what a great idea) you would NEVER get that kind of majority vote. "

Republicans trot this "old chestnut" because *gasp* it is important to a lot of people! And, the Second Amendment is in danger of being ignored everytime a liberal wants to use a killing for political gain.

Confusious says:

"Men with big guns, have small weapon."

[nathanealy]

Obama is at it again. He insists that law abiding citizens should be allowed to own guns, but he wants to pass laws that will take guns away from law abiding citizens. Is he a hypocrite, or is he just stupid?

Okay everyone, lets make a deal. Us "gun nuts" will give up the Second Amendment, if you give up the Fourth Amendment. Yeah, that''ll be perfect. The government will have the right to search your house AND you won''t have anyway to defend yourself.

"If we restrict liberty to attain security we will lose them both." - Ben Franklin didn''t really say it, but it is still true.

I AM GOING TO ASK THE MSM AGAIN, WHERE ARE MCSAME''S MEDICAL RECORDS PROMISED IN APRIL???? WHERE IS THE MSM ON THIS STORY?????

[obamaslady]

McSame is such a FOOL - he will pander to anyone who will stand around and listen! If he was unable to beat Bush whose intelligence rates right up there on the same level as his name, in the primary of 2004, how in the h*ll does he think he can beat Obama whose intellect is so far above his last-in-class status of WWII type? Let him pander all he wants; the public knows pandering when they see it as dispelled by the gas tax holiday that McSame and HRC supported! The public rejected it out of hand for the pandering it actually was!

[sunsetmom3]

Defending the 2nd amendment is important. People who are so quick to want to do away with this right may just come after our other rights like freedom of speech and religion.

[yongamerica]

In Iraq people are allowed to have machine guns and RPGs. I sure wish the US allowed its citizens the same freedom. I know what I''d do if they did.

[yongamerica]

Our founding fathers stood up for the right for mass murders to have access to assault weapons, that is what makes this country great!

******* straight! And the best place to for mass murders is the mass murder capital of the whole ***''n world! Them Muslims know how to kill their own kind better than anyone else. Where else to get the best lessons in mass murder than the vegetable markets in Baghdad. You go Iranian Shiits Muslims, you know how to dish out terror better than anyone else in the world.

[greatdrivew]

McCain and the neo-cons actually think this election could be decided on the issue of gun ownership? LOL!! I certainly hope that''s what the DOA GOP thinks. LOL!!

[tryhonesty]

Hey McSame(McBush)and idiot RepubliCONs...Its the ECONOMY stupid!

[steeepe]

Anyone who thinks that Democrats want to take away everybody''s guns is an idiot. Hunters don''t need assault rifles or automatic weapons. Lines have already been drawn -- it''s illegal to have bazookas, machine guns, and anti-aircraft missiles. If everyone was conscientious and moral, we wouldn''t need any laws anyway, but there are plenty of people who shouldn''t have guns. Would the nation be safer if everybody was armed to the teeth? Since tempers seem to be shortening daily, I don''t think so. No none wants to take away legitimate hunting or self-protection weapons, but I don''t look forward to the day when we have shootouts in traffic jams across the country.

House Republicans turned on themselves yesterday after a third straight loss of a GOP-held House seat in special elections this year left both parties contemplating widespread Democratic gains in November.

In huddles, closed-door meetings and hastily arranged conference calls, some Republicans demanded the head of their political chief, while others decried their leadership as out of touch with the political catastrophe they face.

GOP leaders sought yesterday to "re-brand" the party with a new slogan and renewed pledges of fiscal rectitude and limited government. But the slogan -- "The Change You Deserve" -- came under mocking fire, because it parallels Democratic presidential front-runner Barack Obama''s "Change We Can Believe In" motto and it mirrors the advertising slogan for the antidepressant Effexor.

Oh...and by the way, I''m a Ron Paul supporter. The only true American Patriot. The only real Republican conservative. People....do your homework!!!

[gorilla400lb]

I don''t even need to read this story!!! McCain is just sucking up to all the gun owners (including myself) which we have the Constitutional right to bear arms. McCain is an IDIOT! Let''s talk about Economic policy you moron!
