If for some reason Mayor Fenty or a member of the D.C. Council of Tyrants is suddenly faced with a late night intruder that blows their gun-grabbing brains out, we’ll see rapid changes taking place.

For the elite leadership, anyway.

Meanwhile, the peasants can go back to carrying clubs and baseball bats around in their home for protection, while the criminals will laugh their asses off.

One thing is for certain when it comes to low-level, penny ante politicians. They are in it for the power. They might get some financial gain too, but these are people who would do it for nothing, just for the feeling of power. And thing about those kind of people is they don't like being told “no”. Nothing gets at their worst as quickly or surely as having someone tell them what they “have” to do.

I swear they're just like teen-agers.

But after all is said and done, it's us, the voters who are responsible for any mess we're in. I hate to admit it, but these people hold their offices at our pleasure. Granted, individual voters have done everything they can to change the course, but in the end there are more voters who will sell their votes to the highest bidder. They are fed upon by politicians that will sell their soul to the highest bidder.

Nothing goes on forever, good or bad. If we don't get the will to get these people out of office they will sooner or later drive us into the ground and then a new round can start grubbing their way up the power ladder.

Pro-Second Amendment legislation will not pass in a congress dominated by the left. Neither will leftists meekly submit to rulings from the courts. The only way to get leftists to bow to anything they oppose is to remove them from office or make the threat of removal so real that they have to act against their agenda in order to remain in power (and so “live to fight another day”).

Now that we’ve finally got “the people” defined, it’s time to work on the definition of “infringed”. Taxes, waiting periods, registrations, licenses, limits on numbers, etc., all constitute infringements.

July 22 JERUSALEM – For the second time this month, Jerusalem today was rocked by a bulldozer terrorist attack, with the rampage this time taking place just one block from a hotel at which Sen. Barack Obama will be staying tonight.

At least 16 people were wounded when a Palestinian Arab resident of eastern Jerusalem drove a massive tractor from a construction site and rammed into a bus, four cars and pedestrians.

The attack was halted when an armed civilian and a border policeman shot dead the terrorst.

HURRAH for the armed citizen!

Michelle Obama in Denver: Barack is candidate of change

"I wish we had time to be divided," she said. "I wish we had time to be upset. To be angry. To be disappointed. I wish we did. Because if we had time for that, then things wouldn't be so bad right now. Instead, we're in a place where another four or eight years of the world as it is will devastate the life of some child."

Unfortunately, it appears as if the courts, rather than the legislature, will have the last word on the D.C. legislation. That is not how it should be.

All too often that is the case, but in this instance the highest court in the land has spoken - correctly, for once - and it's the City Council that believes it should have the final say. Hopefully DC's lawful residents - if in fact there are any - will spit right in the Council's face, just as the latter has done with the Court. When the politicos try to harass them for defending themselves, may they get laughed right out of town (permanently!).
