Good words. If he can say that kind of thing with conviction in a speech or debate he should be able to walk all over the obamination.

A small sign that John is "growing" on the job.
Now if he would only "grow" on some other issues (like ANWR for instance, not to mention McCain/Feingold abomination.)

McCain and the GOP need to publish he-whose-full-name-must-not-be-spoken’s gun right’s voting record AND his statement today about the Heller decision. This needs to be a huge talking point.

Unlike the elitist view that believes Americans cling to guns out of bitterness, today's ruling recognizes that gun ownership is a fundamental right BOOM!!!! hehehe

Good words. If he can say that kind of thing with conviction in a speech or debate he should be able to walk all over the obamination.Democrats are probably celebrating this ruling as well. Now that gun control can be taken off the table, the dems can try and regain the votes of the conservative "Reagan Democrats" who abandoned them years ago over social issues --of which gun control played a huge part.
Now the dems don't have to talk about guns --which for them has been nothing but a vote loser.

Sorry. I'd call it “a small step in the right direction.”
It still allows governments to license firearms or deny the right to keep and bear arm by denying those same licenses.

Unlike the elitist view that believes Americans cling to guns out of bitterness, today's ruling recognizes that gun ownership is a fundamental right- sacred, just as the right to free speech and assembly.

Oh, you mean “free speech,” John, as in running political ads 60 days before an election? :-/

This only “takes the issue off the table” if people choose to forget what their intent is, even if their ability to implement that intent on the rest of us has been diminished.

The Supreme Court and Liberals are turning America into a dictatorship while the sheeple sleep.

Keep moving in the right direction John. There is some hope for you yet.

Well Juan said the right words. Too bad his voting history doesn’t confirm the words, but maybe he’s had a change of heart. We can hope that anyway.

Don’t underestimate what Obama would do as president. He would simply say there is a *need* for 11 justices instead of the current nine - and then proceed too stack the Court with leftist-liberals until he has a majority.

It’s nice to see McCain delivering a real smackdown on a democrat. A very rare event!
