If things remain as they are in the Republican Primary field, especially if Sarah decides not to run, then Michelle seems to be a good choice for a conservative to vote for.
Nobody is perfect but she seems okay. Hermain Cain isn't too bad either. Both these people are great conservatives, its just a question of how much support they will be able to get.
You seemed to be woefully ignorant and don't know anything about guns.
I will wager one “Sarah Palin for President” campaign button on that.
Romney has no chance of winning unless you are talking about Utah, Wyoming and Idaho.
According to national polls right now, you would be wrong.

Yeah, I guess I’m missing it Eaker. Please share with me what I’m missing. I see that assault weapons, AK 47s, etc would be banned. Tell me which ones I’m missing that are depriving you of life, liberty and happiness.
I don’t run a day care for a reason.
Are you really so ignorant or has it now degraded to stupid that you don’t understand?
An AK-47 is a single shot with each trigger pull rifle. Just like most “deer” rifles or .22’s or the airgun you might have the balls to fire.
If you find this scary and want to ban guns then you are indeed on the wrong site.
Weird...so you’re saying the AK47 was created for kill deer, and here I thought it was a military weapon designed to kill people. So odd that I missed that. Weird.
What’s also weird is that you can get on in full auto mode where 12 to 15 rounds can go off in a single second. Darn, that’s one crazy deer to have to knock down requiring 12 to 15 rounds in one second.
Sorry Eaker, there are plenty of us conservatives that love guns but don’t think it needs to protect these types. You disagree, that’s fine. Doesn’t make me any less conservative than you. Most Americans agree with me on this issue. We can agree to disagree. Cute comment on the day care thing. Have a wonderful Sunday.
Sporter semi-auto versions are made by SKS, etc, and cannot be converted into a Full-auto tactical weapon without drastic modification of the action. Not many are sold for sporter use because there are many far better 30 cal. rounds out there like the 308 win. that has better accuracy and performance on big game. The rifle design is also very poor from a sporter standpoint and not well suited for sporting/hunting use.
The AK-47 was solely designed as a military weapon for combat use against other human beings. There is no other motive it's designer considered than that.
No, not weird just a lack of education and intelligence.
What’s also weird is that you can get on in full auto mode where 12 to 15 rounds can go off in a single second. Darn, that’s one crazy deer to have to knock down requiring 12 to 15 rounds in one second.
The weapons that are covered by Mitt's ban ARE the semi auto version. Full auto weapon like the one you are describing are still available with a Class Three license. None of this is a secret. Do some ACTUAL research.
AK47 was created for kill deer
A killdeer is a bird. I never said that any version was for that use.
The act created a definition of "assault weapons" and subjected firearms that met that definition to regulation. Nineteen models of firearms were defined by name as being "assault weapons". Various semi-automatic rifles, pistols, and shotguns were classified as "assault weapons" due to having various combinations of features.
The act addressed only semi-automatic firearms, that is, firearms that fire one shot each time the trigger is pulled. (Apparently you two missed this) Neither the AWB nor its expiration changed the legal status of fully automatic firearms, which fire more than one round with a single trigger-pull; these have been regulated by the National Firearms Act of 1934 and Firearm Owners Protection Act of 1986.
The act separately defined and banned "large capacity ammunition feeding devices", which generally applied to magazines or other ammunition feeding devices with capacities of greater than an arbitrary number of rounds and which up to the time of the act had been considered normal or factory magazines. These ammunition feeding devices were also referred to in the media and popular culture as "high capacity magazines or feeding devices". Depending on the locality and type of firearm, the cutoff between a "normal" capacity and "high" capacity magazine was 3, 7, 10, 12, 15, or 20 rounds. The now defunct federal ban set the limit at 10 rounds.
During the period in which the AWB was in effect, it was illegal to manufacture any firearm that met the law's definition of an "assault weapon" or "large capacity ammunition feeding device", except for export or for sale to a government or law enforcement agency. Possession of illegally imported or manufactured firearms was outlawed as well, but the law did not ban the possession or sale of pre-existing "assault weapons" or previously factory standard magazines which had been legally redefined as "large capacity ammunition feeding devices". This provision for "pre-ban" firearms created a higher price point in the market for such items, which lasted until the ban's sunset.
Now you two run back to Sarah Brady and tell her that you have been busted on your liberal talking points.
There are millions of the semiauto version in America.
To say different proves that you are an idiot and a liar.
No American will agree with an "assault weapon" ban. Some misguided people who live in the United States and don't wish to be free might agree to the "assault weapon", what ever an "assault weapon" is. Any gun ban will eventually led to the repeal of the Second Amendment.
SideoutFred thinks people are using full auto weapons to hunt birds.
He apparently a real expert when it comes to guns.
LOL, go back to DU you commie git.
You miss the point. If you don’t need them to hunt, which you clearly don’t, then what do you need full assault weapons for? Hmmm? You don’t need them.
Your argument is simply an argument that if they take assault weapons away, then what’s next...it will ultimately lead to taking them all away. That is essentially your argument and it’s ridiculous.
Clue: it has nothing to do with hunting deer, and the only people who think it does are commies.
It's for hunting fools like you who want to sell out my rights.
Thanks Psycho...I’m aware and appreciate the info. Apparently Eaker and a few others didn’t understand my sarcasm. Of course the weapon was for military purposes only and there is no need for them by any “normal” citizen. They like to make the argument it’s no different of a weapon than a rifle used to shoot deer. Wow. Uhm, ok. This is the problem we have as conservatives where we have segment of complete nutjobs that make arguments like this, or think Obama was born in Kenya, etc, etc that it kills us in the court of public opinion.
Thankfully the Democrats have their own group of complete whackjobs that somewhat balances it out, though the lefty controlled media does a good job of weeding those folks out while pushing our nutjobs to the front pages.
Sport...so you say “NO AMERICAN” will agree to an assault ban. Uhm, ok. Yet 53% of them agreed to have Obambi as their President. You really think that if 53% want Obambi that more than “NO AMERICAN” (i.e. more than zero) might want a ban on assault weapons.
Hmm...gee....hmm...I wonder.
