Sounds like an appeaser. Does anyone know much about this woman who may be talking with our fiercest enemies?

I believe this is the arm of the UN that deals with gun control, or at least attempts international gun bans against private citizens owning firearms.

has become my passion and, I hope, my life's work," said Tauscher.

It was Reagan's passion, too, only he didn't just talk about it. W was pretty good at it, too. Yet we still have the cliche about Reagan being a trigger-happy loon.

Just a question for anyone that might know.

If Hussein agreed to some type of International treaty banning firearms, or “assault weapons” specifically; if the treaty were ratified by simple majority of the Senate, would that not make the treaty the law in our country regardless of the Constitutionality of such a measure?

McCain got just a third of the vote in this bay area suburban seat, Bush 40% both of his times. The Austrian carried it with 56%. It was created in 1992 and went Republican. It’s been rat held since 1996. 20-30 years ago this would probably have been a GOP seat.

A quotation from the "expert" on nuclear weapons issues:

"The Constitution was never meant to be the only set of laws that we follow. I had a blue dress when I was five, but I can't wear it because it doesn't fit me anymore. There are lots of things that change over time and you have a whole bunch of legislation enacted every day, every month, every year that adjusts and calibrates to the times and to the issues...what is perceived to be the best thing for the American people...and these are called laws, and, you know, I think they've been doing a pretty good job."
