I disagree, the very first day after GW's comments the White House received over 10,000 emails. This is going to be a real fight.

They do want to renew it and make amendments. Good God they just showed where they want to ban Potato Gun's. Give me a break.

With the sunset, before the elections, make your intentions known and be loud about it. NO AW PERIOD! Let it die the death it deserves.

As I said, I would be against adding a bunch of useless crap and will fight it, but the political reality is that the law will likely be renewed.

The support was strong for the original vote and I do not think that has changed.

Bush will have to decide if he wants to give the rats a big election issue or tick off a few conservative gun owners.

From the statements I have seen on the forum recently, those ticked off conservatives took or threatened to take that vote away prior to this issue.

I will give him the right to make that call and it won't hurt my feelings a bit. I just don't see the importance of fighting this politically.

The main problem is the term "assault weapon".
