From reading the above posts it sounds like the liberal NY Times has done the job it set out to do. Divide and Conquer.

Well, that is what I expect from the NYT. What should we expect from President Bush on this issue?

So you've knowingly judged the other posters, now why don't you try being brave and stating your view?

Is Bush doing this out of some core belief? Or is he doing it out of cold political calculation?

The NY Times isn't the problem here. They have never been less relevant in American politics than they are today. They will continue to lose relevancy with each passing day.

This is because of talk radio, cable TV, and the internet. More and more Americans are getting their news from 'alternative sources'.

Haven't read the NYT recently. But unity means nothing if the leader of our cause doesn't see our freedoms as his cause. Bush and the Republican dominance of our congress ends when it becomes smugness and arrogance. Doan care much about your united front - unless it impacts my future of freedom, or that of my kids. Like the Dixie sluts, Bush can choose to support whatever he likes - then we get to.

Meaning that it is the NY Times that will support and then sign an extention of the ban?

Don't blame the Times. And don't blame those who understand the importance of the Constitution.

BLAME BUSH.

Blaming the Times for this is like blaming the Washington Post for Watergate. They can't make substance of shadow; Bush gave them the material.

Why is it that a so-called "conservative" president finds it so easy to bargain away our Second Amendment rights? And if we can't rely on him to protect them, who CAN we count on? Or should we just shut up and go like lambs to the slaughter, taking illusory comfort from the fact that the butcher will ply the axe gently?
