Really! I didn't know that the NRA had veto authority.

The bottom line here is you have to trust the Republicans to hold the line on this issue. I equate this trust to Charlie Brown believing that Lucy will hold the ball for him to kick.

The haouse has already voted once to repeal the AW ban on a vote of 239 to 179. NOBODY except the most extreme anti-gunners want this bill to pass. The GOP knows that this is the breaking point and that the NRA WILL NOT endorse Bush if he signs the AW extension.

The GOP may be wobbly and stupid, but they aren't so stupid as to throw away the White House to appease a tiny minority of people who would never vote GOP anyway.

Good one, I would not have thought of that.
