Watch out for signs that Bush/Ashcroft are "playing to lose" on RKBA issues. I realize that in the Emerson case, Ashcroft filed a brief stating that RKBA is an individual right. While that is a significant defi to offer the Left, what a lot of people missed was that Ashcroft and his Solicitor General, Ted Olson, didn't throw the other shoe: that the right cannot be infringed. They left the door open to "reasonable" gun control --

The socialists in control of the Republican party are giving only lip service to our RKBA's. They clearly intend to regulate it to death.

Well, I don't think they're socialists (yet), but I think Pew Trusts did us a favor when they got the RiNO's to speak up candidly -- that they don't support our RKBA. These guys are going to be a big, fat problem.

Just another flavor of elitist, AFAIC.

Molon labe, etc.
