Pelosi and her 'Crash Dummies' (Putting things wildly in perspective)

-- Bush still has the veto pen. That veto pen means the Nancy Pelosi/Charlie Rangel/Henry Waxman/Ted Kennedy/trial lawyer/ environutter/gun-grabbing/tax-hiking agenda has zero chance of becoming law.

It's been so long that a veto was actually used, I've forgotten how many votes in the house does it take to override a veto?

"As much as none of us wanted to lose Tuesday night, this is EXACTLY what needed to happen to strengthen our party. And I, for one, LOVE IT as I feel like we will steam roll thru 08 w/ true conservatives."

Your kidding ... right? If not, and you are a conservative then you must be smoking something strong.

As most of my posts on FR concern 2nd Amendment issues, this election was a complete and utter disaster for gun owners in this country.

You may think that the dems will bungle things in the next two years, but what ever they do, THEY WILL DESTROY OUR 2ND AMENDMENT RIGHTS in the next two years. And the ATF will be more than happy to do the dirty work.

Taxes can be raised and cut. Gov't programs can be created and eliminated. But once a right is destroyed it never comes back. Once our rights to purchase and own and use our firearms are eliminated, no congress, not president will ever restore them ... no mater how conservative they might be ... because it is in the government's best interest to disarm the people in order to enhance their power over the people.

If it were possible, some 150+ million people from the last century could attest to what I am saying, but they can't since their gov'ts eliminated their rights to arm themselves and then eliminated THEM shortly afterwords.

From the Armenians of Turkey in the early 1910's to the people of Rwanda in the late 1990's ... once disarmed they are at the mercy of their gov'ts.

So ... I hope after reading my point of view on this election you might not "love" the dems winning this election. If you are a gun owner, hunter, and competition shooter like me ... you would feel sick to your stomach from this election.

So what do we have to do to take back the media?

&&&&&&

Take "back" is not possible. We have to develop ways to get the message of conservatism out past the dominant media. It is a huge challenge.

I like the way you think.
