But it will sunset if left alone.
The people who object to the AWB will have to make a choice, that choice will have them either voting for Bush in the next election, or against him.
So you're admitting that this will be an election issue.
There are more people who support the AWB, than those who oppose it. Sacrificing the presidency to a Liberal will not only cement in the AWB, but will perhaps lead to more restrictive legislation in the future.
Appeal to force, see above. I'm not afraid to make it clear to all members of the federal government that this is unacceptable.
The bill must be killed in Congress, the risk of giving the Libs an issue to rally around, and the sacrifice of the presidency, is not worth it right now.
You can bet your ass that many of us are doing our level best to do just that.
The AWB must be killed by Congress, not by the president.
Again, see above. But most of this is irrelevant with you as you support the bill. Check yourself Luis. You might be a liberal.
Guns made this country free and they will probably make your former homeland free as well. Not PC versions but ugly guns that could be banned in Miami.
Think about it.
