O-L: Judging by Dubya's past 3 years in office the answer is no. Dubya has proposed nothing to stop gun shows as President.
A few points:
1) Why do you need “Dubya's past 3 years in office” to judge whether a “gun show problem” exists? Do the facts of the matter somehow depend on Dubya's ‘proposals?’
2) If the facts do depend on Dubya's ‘proposals,’ why are you suddenly ignoring what Dubyah proposed as governor? After all, “dope,” “IT'S THE SAME GUY!!!”
3) Your Post #442 states: “Bush claimed the federal government should solve the gun show problem… [ Houston Chronicle, 4/27/99; Fort Worth Star-Telegram, 5/22/99 ]” Did the “gun show problem” exist in 1999, and magically disappear by 2001?
They’re simple questions – even you should be able to cobble together relevant answers.
WIJG: You posted it, my left fringe friend: answer the question.
O-L: I'm pro-life, Pro-RKBA, for taxcuts, for a strong military, and for free trade… [blah, blah, blah…]
You really should learn to read – I didn’t ask for your biography, or your ‘enemies’ list.
I just think there are common sense approaches to solving the problems in the world that don't include erecting a 15 foot fence around our borders, shooting abortion doctors, or blowing up the Alfred P. Murrah building. Extremism in the pursuit of liberty invites a backlash…
You actually equate objecting to an unconstitutional law with murder, mass murder, and terrorism? “Hey dope:” the ‘assault weapons’ ban fails to satisfy even the restrictive standards established by the Supreme Court in US v Miller - it’s blatantly unconstitutional. If there is any “extremism” around here, it emanates from air-heads like you – and if there’s any “backlash,” it is no doubt generated by extremist bullsh!t like your suggestion that 'protesting = murder’…
Then they say really stupid things when they are faced with a choice of Dean or Dubya like "what precisely would be the difference?"
If you had bothered (or been able ;>) to read, you would know that the comparison was between laws, not candidates:
!1776!: The libs version [of the ‘assault weapon’ ban] would be much worse.
Really? We'll see if Mr. Bush signs an extension of the 'assault weapons' ban. If it's as bad as (or worse than ;>) the original 1994 "libs version," what precisely would be the difference?

“You now know that you are ignorant”…
;>)
There are some conservative who are concerned about RKBA and felons buying guns.
So, now you’re saying that there IS a “gun show problem?” You just told us that “(j)udging by Dubya's past 3 years in office,” the problem doesn’t even “exist.” Which is it, “Madam Cleo?”
;>)
WIJG: [Or are you suggesting that] 2) Mr. Bush was 'playing politics,' and said he would sign the [‘assault weapons’] bill even though he really wouldn't.
O-L: I'm going with 2 Einstein.
So you’re telling us Mr. Bush is a liar? You sound like one of the Nine Dwarves! Personally, I would never suggest such a thing. A friend from West Texas sat down to lunch with Mr. Bush a while back, and tells me the President is an honest man. You apparently believe otherwise.
Until Jesus comes back and runs for office the far right fringers will lose election after election because their standards for support are too high for mere humans.
ROTFLMAO! ‘You can’t expect the President to tell the truth! You can’t expect him to honor the Constitution! Your standards are too high for mere humans! TOOO HIIIGH!!!’ You’re nothing but a de facto Clinton apologist! No wonder you whine so much about “far right fringers!” And it certainly explains the link in your Post #442 to the anti-Bush ‘hate’ site...
If Dubya said "I will not pass an extension of the AWB EVEN if my own party passes it," he would be pounded with it day after day.
“Hey dope:” why would he have to say that? Hmm? FWIW, if he did issue such a strange and unnecessary statement, and got “pounded” at all, it would be by only half of your ‘enemies’ list: the “leftists,” rather than “right fringe.” (Funny how your “enemy” supposedly includes both the “left” and the “right!” Guess that makes you ‘middle of the road’ - a “moron centrist voter”… ;>)
Now he can say "I'm willing to sign it if Congress decides it is a necessary."
“If Congress decides?” I thought Mr. Bush swore an oath to preserve, protect, and defend the Constitution? (I guess your copy of the Constitution doesn’t include Article I, Section 7, Clause 2. What a shame… ;>) Looks like you consider him a ‘slave of Congress’...
When Dubya says he will sign a law that will never pass it cancels some of the votes the rats might get from moron centrist voters. The rats do the same thing...take Howard Dean for instance.
OUCH! Now you’re comparing Mr. Bush to - Howard Dean!?! Really? You were just telling us a few lines back how “really stupid” it is to compare the two men and suggest that they are similar. Here you suggest that Mr. Bush is a liar, and so is Howard Dean. You’re an amazingly obvious hypocrite, my friend.
...can you believe that some knuckle-headed far right fringers are considering voting for Dean because they are too stupid to discern a difference between Dean and Dubya?
Based on your written characterization of both Dubya and Dean as lying politicians, the “too stupid” label is just as applicable to you, “Einstein,” as it is to any other ‘knuckle-head’...
;>)
You called me left fringe I responded to that. Looks like it went over your head.
“Hey dope:” the ‘assault weapons’ ban fails to satisfy even the restrictive standards established by the Supreme Court in US v Miller - it’s blatantly unconstitutional.
It is the law of the land. I really don't care if it is unconstitutional in your opinion. I'm against abortion. I think it is unconstitutional but the SCOTUS doesn't care about my opinion either. The far right fringe always whines "it's unconstitutional"...it doesn't make a bit of difference...it is the law of the land. Unless you face reality you have no hope of changing reality.
ROTFLMAO! ‘You can’t expect the President to tell the truth! You can’t expect him to honor the Constitution! Your standards are too high for mere humans! TOOO HIIIGH!!!’ You’re nothing but a de facto Clinton apologist!
Deception is a tool for winning. Winning is not something a lot of far right fringers care about. I voted for Bush Sr and Dole. You are a Dean apologist.
Funny how your “enemy” supposedly includes both the “left” and the “right!”
Your not the right.
Looks like you consider him a ‘slave of Congress’...
He is a servant of the people
OUCH! Now you’re comparing Mr. Bush to - Howard Dean!?!
They are both men, and politicians. They both have 2 legs. They have many things in common. They have many differences. I can see those differences, you can not.
