Good one.

Other than that, he promises to support the rest of it unless something else comes up.

This guy isn’t fit to be president on any level.

Obama
http://www.ontheissues.org/2008/Barack_Obama_Gun_Control.htm

“FactCheck: Yes, Obama endorsed Illinois handgun ban

“Obama was being misleading when he denied that his handwriting had been on a document endorsing a state ban on the sale and possession of handguns in Illinois. Obama responded, “No, my writing wasn’t on that particular questionnaire. As I said, I have never favored an all-out ban on handguns.”

“Actually, Obama’s writing was on the 1996 document, which was filed when Obama was running for the Illinois state Senate. A Chicago nonprofit, Independent Voters of Illinois, had this question, and Obama took hard line:

35. Do you support state legislation to:
a. ban the manufacture, sale and possession of handguns? Yes.
b. ban assault weapons? Yes.
c. mandatory waiting periods and background checks? Yes.

Obama’s campaign said, “Sen. Obama didn’t fill out these state Senate questionnaires—a staffer did—and there are several answers that didn’t reflect his views then or now. He may have jotted some notes on the front page of the questionnaire, but some answers didn’t reflect his views.”

Interesting. Thanks.

I remember viewing the Alinsky interview before. Definitely worth viewing. The Kurtz video is also very important and I am looking forward to his book.

“Audio at link”

Now that there is audio of Obama stating that Americans should not be able to own guns, the tape will hopefully find its way into a Romney commercial.

Still, that message (and others) need to be hammered over and over until the “33%” that blow with the wind get the picture

When did BHO say this?
Only references I can find and there are many, he said “some people should not be allowed to own guns”.

This was said in a conversation to John Lott. Lott is telling us.

BTW where was John Lott and the anti-Obama crowd 4 years ago? That quote was as relevant then as today.

Obama hasn't changed, and the opposition against him hasn't changed. The only thing different in 2008 was that the total news blackout was more effective, because he had no record.

Relax. It's hearsay, but there are exceptions to the hearsay rule. About a dozen of them (dying declaration, excited utterance, res gestae, etc. etc.)

This is a well known exception: admission against interest by a party opponent.

It's clearly against Obama's interest to admit that he doesn't believe people should own guns. And if ever there was an opponent - of freedom, of citizens, of the United States - then he is it.

Just hearsay, unfortunately. Probably true, but without proof there’s no way to make it stick.

I'm pretty sure Lott recounted this to Michelle Malkin during the 2008 campaign - there were threads on it right here.

Found an old thread...

http://www.freerepublic.com/focus/f-news/2105362/posts

There was definitely more discussion of this topic - and not just here on FR. Can't blame Lott for not warning us, regardless of the fact that he didn't have proof of Obama's comment.

What would we expect from the communists black Muslim King Obama. He wants to eventually, after converting America to his dictatorship, to rule the world.
