No, I'm not kidding. Does this sound the same to you?

1) "I used gun control as mayor," he said at a news conference Saturday during a swing through California. But "I understand the Second Amendment. I understand the right to bear arms."

He said what he did as mayor would have no effect on hunting.

2)It seems every election year, some liberal politician dons an NRA cap and grabs a shotgun for a hunting photo-op, as if that means they support our right as Americans to keep and bear arms. I, myself, thoroughly enjoy hunting, having just recently spent a great weekend hunting elk in Arizona. But, the second amendment is not about hunting. It is about the right of you and me to be secure in our homes. We must vigorously defend against all attempts to chip away at the Second Amendment. You know as well as I do that there is one thing criminals prefer over any other: unarmed victims.


I don't need to tell you who said what

And he claims there is no difference between Bush and Rudy on the 2nd Amendment, even though the Bush Admin Justice Department has argued that the 2nd A is an individual, not a collective right.

And for him to even compare Rudy and Duncan Hunter regarding gun rights is the height of absurdity. Hunter gets an A+ rating from GOA. That is no small feat. I'm not sure GOA has a rating low enough to adequately describe Rudy - after all, he took guns away from long-term NYC permit holders who never had them taken away by the likes of Koch and Dinkins.
