Get a major battle rifle before you buy your long range rifle.

Paraphrasing the old adage, “please Lord if their must be war, let it be in my time and spare my children this horror”. If we are headed that way, and I think we are, let’s get it underway so we can get back to having a country led by honorable, responsible people, with a sincere respect for the constitution and God.

It is time to start separating the wheat from the tares in America. Then throw the tares into the furnace.

I lost all of my guns in an unfortunate boating accident.

As I recall, you had all of mine with you also. No wonder
it capsized.

I'm thinking 12-gauge, and hoping they'll save themselves a trip and come for my gold at the same time.

I lost mine in a boating accident also. And, funny thing, every time that I buy more ammo, I lose it in a boating accident.

Frankly, I'm pretty well convinced that's the only way we'll ever get off this train to all-out statism.

When the Dems are in control, they shovel the coal into the boiler as fast as they possibly can, which causes Republican politicians to suddenly wax conservative.

But, when Republicans finally wrest control from the Dems, the train keeps rolling down the same track, albeit at a slower pace.

Someday, this train has to turn around. We're either going to have to (1) take control of the R party, (2) mandate run-off elections when no candidate receives a majority of the popular vote (making a third, conservative party viable, instead of handing elections to liberals), or (3) fight the New American Revolution.

HMm Maybe my Gun of the Month plan needs to be accelerated to a gun of the week plan. All of which will be lost in a tragic boating accident in 2012.

A treaty is a big deal. It requires ratification by Congress

Tell that to Obama as he heads(ed) off to Copenhagen to sign up the US for climate "control"!

No congress, no ratification, fiat.
