Anyone else catch that CBS news gun sale piece?

[FromMyColdDeadHand]

Who knows, I wouldn't put it past them to ask the guy the "Why" question, and then kept on asking for another reason till they got the one they wanted. Then, if you need video, just ask if he could explain that point. A little editing, and viola, you get what you want.

They interviewed some decent sized gun dealer in CT. He's the schmuck that made the bank failure comment. I wonder how many dealers they talked to before they found one who would NOT say peole are affraid of Ali Bama Bans.

Schmuck is right. They are near where the wealthy reporters live.

Support good gun shops, where the owners stand up for the second ammendment.

I think that some of the gun-grabbers are getting a little twitchey because Mr. Obama has been tip-toeing around the whole "gun control" minefield for some time now.
No exec orders on imports , no action to go back to the CCW ban in National Parks ( and a Secretary of the Interior who supported the change when he was a Senator! ) no Clintonian speeches about gun control.
Wise choices for any President with a very full plate. If he needs traction --throw the Brady Bunch under the bus.

The poor babies must be feeling neglected and betrayed about now.

I'm not feeling quite so cavalier, personally, but here's hoping you're right. I would like nothing more than to be able to buy a Massoud or ACR 2-3 years from now.

Don't get me wrong , I agree that we are in for a long hard fight.

Still , it's good to see the leftie coalition showing some hairline stress cracks around the edges , especially this soon in the honeymoon.

[Army Chief]

You'll get no argument from me. We need every small victory we can get, brother.

The one thing that worries me is BHO's attacks on Rush Limbaugh. He seems to think that he can use Rush as fulcrum between moderate and conservative Rep. An AWB ban would also force RINOs to choose between the being BHO buddy and doing the "right" right thing.

We all say that he won't touch it while the economy is bad, but if it stays bad, and he can gin up some crime numbers, it might be a way to get a 2 month reprieve on people on the right harping about the economy.

I'm not a fan of Rush, but there is ZERO daylight between him and me on the rkba. If BHO wants to use Rush as a wedge, than he's in for disappointment. The "RINOs" have already become Dems.

The American people want him to fix the economy as he promised to do. That's first and foremost, if he actually succeeds in fixing it, then he MIGHT be able to make a case for implementing a left-wing agenda. Given that our current economic policy is FUBAR such an outcome is well beyond his control and will almost certainly fail.

If Obama doesn't fix the economy and deliver on a few of his promises, than diversion to gun control will be a transparent admission of failure. Please let him be that stupid in his first term, it will be the shortest-lived Donkey majority in political history.

The ignorant dealer tried to over dramatize gun sales during his 15 mins of fame. I bet he felt pretty clever when he said it. If gun dealers are selected for a mouth piece for the industry, they should keep to the "facts" and not BS. Running your mouth in front of the camera, for the sake of running it, does Not do gun owners any favors.

Dan Rather & CBS's history of anti-2A propaganda

It goes back to long before Rather. Walter Cronkite was just as much an anti-2A propagandist.
