hang on... I finally got enough coffe in me to kick start my brain:
You are right.
Dubya does NOT have to play these games.
He'd do better to just stand up and be counted as NOT supporting this legislation, and vowing to veto it.
The people he is trying to cozen will never vote for him no matter what, and he is costing himself our confidence and many of our votes.

Thank you, exactly my point. -- Now you need to convince BC here below, that Bush can denouce his campaign pledge without losing 'honor':
"The assault weapon ban is useless as it stands now. What the hell is everyone complaining about? Currently, I can go to any gun show here in Florida and buy enough fire power to take over Iran.
Heaven forbid, he is doing exactly what he said he would during the election. Honor is a hard thing to find in a president, but evidently this means nothing."

'Limiting firepower' is an honorable pledge, in your book, is it? Funny, I always thought the 2nd was pretty clear about "shall not be infringed"...
