The proposed 2nd presidential debate will be another YouTube style debate.
Someone needs to send in the question to 0bama: Have you ever fired a gun?

This is a lose-lose question for 0bama.

I’ve seen all four of the ads on the internet. They are hard-hitting pieces.

From NationalReviewOnline:

Obama on a Handgun Ban and Their Use

Obama said tonight that he never supported a ban on handguns. Gibson mentioned a questionnaire, and once again, Obama said he wasn't the one who filled it out.

I presume this is the questionnaire he's referring to: "That 1996 questionnaire asked whether he supported banning the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns in Illinois. The campaign's answer was straightforward: "Yes."

I now see that Obama has been saying for a while that some unnamed aide filled out that form without consulting him. (The Politico noted his handwriting appears on the questionnaire, the one he said he never saw.)

Also note:

llinois resident Hale DeMar was prosecuted by the town of Wilmette for using a handgun to defend his home in 2003. Wilmette had imposed a ban on the possession of handguns, in effect making the town a gun-free zone.

To correct the situation, several Illinois state legislators introduced SB 2165 to protect the right of self-defense for residents like DeMar. Obama voted against the bill.

That self-defense bill protecting the right to bear arms for law-abiding citizens such as DeMar passed the Illinois state Senate and was enacted into law over the governor's veto (and Obama's opposition).

So he wouldn't ban handguns, he would just ban using them.

Obama is against guns, like Castro, Stalin and Hitler - so that freedom fighters cannot defend themselves.

Your gun is your ultimate voting lever.

There’s been a Obama ad playing like clockwork on the radio...I know it’s a lie, but it plays...some ex redskin football player...says he’s part of some hunting org...says, ‘both McCain and Obama will protect our right to own guns’...which is the message they want to get out—most households in the area have guns, and more than one—then he talks about something else, economy...something...I imagine if Kerry or Gore had played an ad like that for two months before the election, the results would have been different.

I’d write a letter to the local paper...most the of the letters have been anti-McCain...but since the neighbor lady has imposed economic sanctions on me for piling my snow too close to her house (I’m self-employed in a small town.) and since the greater portion of the population here are blue bloods, I prefer to maintain a sleeper status and keep the ammo handy.

In the end, the people will get what they deserve.
