Talk about a media shitstorm if it looks plausible.

So? Let them make a big deal out of it. Bush won at least two states (West Virginia and Tennessee) primarily because of the gun issue. In 1994, several senior democrats lost their House seats solely on the gun issue.

Having the leftist media make a big deal would be a blessing in disguise for Bush. Especially when you consider that every minute the media spends on "assualt weapons" is one less minute they'll have to spend on massive budget deficits, a sour economy and huge increases in the federal gov't.

Well, I suppose it seems possible. And Bush has proven to be quite the fox. But still, my uninformed gut simply says this bill stays exactly where it is. Love to see it otherwise. Would make some great ammo go use against my soon-to-be disarmed state of Illinois.
