If Bush is willing to sacrifice a strong stand on the 2nd amendment when he has a 70% approval rating, what makes you think he'll make a strong stand if he is re-elected at 52%?

"After the Gulf War of 1991, George Bush received a strong 89 percent approval rating"

And what did we get?

It's time to put up or shut up

I've already got my black rifle, and a bunch of other weapons. I want to keep them. I think it's time to slam the rats with a win they can't try to claim was stolen, get a filibuster proof majority, and put the boot in their face.

I'm not up for a "hail mary" pass- I want to grind down the field and crush them.

I like the football analogy. I would observe that not all gun owners vote REP, and a strong stand on this would win working class union democratic votes.

I love football references.

Our team, Middle America Republicans, are currently defending Super Bowl Champs. We're at midseason and it looks like once again, we'll be playing the Coastal Jackasses in a rematch of 2000. Our Owner/GM is George W Bush. Coach is Karl Rove.

And Coach Rove's double safety blitz while we have the lead by 14 has single and linebacker man coverage for the Rats, have a chance here to get right back in the game by going deep.

Also, when the season's up, the top linebacker(Joe Gunactivists) in the game is a free agent. He's been a star since 1988, and is aging. If he doesn't get the right deal, he may retire, although he still had 15 tackles and scored a winning touchdown off of former QB, Al Gore's fumble recovery in the 2000 super bowl on route to an MVP.

Joe's not the media star of the QB, John Military, but he always shows up to play and his blue collar grit is popular with the fans out here. Fans will come to watch Joe, and they may no longer buy tickets if he's lowballed.

But the rumor is that Joe does want to come back for one more year.
