Obama's Gun-Restriction Policy Playbook
Towhnhall ^ | 10/31/08 | John Sigler, NRA President

“The problem that progressives have on the gun issue has far less to do with the typical policies they espouse than the rhetoric they employ.” - The Third Way

“It’s critical that progressives recognize that only an aggressive outreach strategy to gun owners will ensure that your opponent’s message about your gun record does not define your candidacy.” - The Third Way

Those two instructions to so-called “progressive” political candidates explain Barack Obama’s camouflage of lies and deceptions that hide his consistent history as an aggressive proponent of virtually every aspect of gun control -- from gun-owner licensing and universal firearms registration; to criminalizing private ownership of whole generic classes of now-lawful firearms; to what I call denial of civil liberty at local option.

The bait-and-switch gimmick of employing rhetorical tricks to hide very real gun control agendas, and to create a fraudulent history to assure that “your gun record does not define your candidacy” are the central lessons offered in a political/propaganda playbook or script proffered by something called the Third Way.

This is critically important article. We all know people who have bought into Obama's or Al Franken's hollow embrace of the Second Amendment. It is always followed with "but..." This explains the lie and the media's agreement.

The terrorists are hoping that Obama wins, since he would be friendly toward them, and totally incompetent in defending the U.S.

The last thing a President Obama wants is an informed and armed society. First thing “Fairness Doctrine” then Internet controls and then gun control.

THis is the MO for the lawyers and lawsuits on welfare of our justice system. Lawyers love that tax money.

They go behind the scenes everyday and attack the side that looks wealthy and conservative. Also courts get virtualy bribed by federal funding to take up those cases supported by the like of YWCA that have nothing to do with their charters.

Free blood for liberal lawyers as they vote and bring criminal charges as a matter of record, yet run on flattery of gun ownership.

There is a level, however, where bleeding the innocent is bleeding them, and the dare will be returned.
