“I understand he is weak on the Second Ammendment.”

Not his job. Fundraising, PR, getting Republicans elected is.

He is a republican, therefore he will probably end up being weak on alot of issues, if he like the other republicans in politics.

My understanding is that it is less a case of being weak as it is just not really saying much and never being in a position to take a stand legislatively. Given the rest of his political stances though, I think he is a safer bet than most.

You are CORRECT. he is a POS, weak RINO when it comes to our 2nd Amendment rights, and from the quotes below, doesn't have a CLUE as to the meaning and intent of our 2nd Amendment.

How DO we keep getting saddled with these LIBERAL-MINDED LOSERS?

Michael Steele on Gun Control

No ban on guns; focus on enforcement instead

Q: Your views on gun control?

A: My views are pretty much in line with the governor's. I grew up under some of the strictest gun control laws in the country. You can have all the gun control laws in the country, but if you don't enforce them, people are going to find a way to protect themselves. We need to recognize that bad people are doing bad things with these weapons. It's not the law-abiding citizens, it's not the person who uses it as a hobby.

Q: Should people have access to buy assault weapons?

A: Society should draw lines. What do you need an assault weapon for, if you're going hunting? That's overkill. But I don't think that means you go to a total ban for those who want to use gun for skeet shooting or hunting or things like that But what's the point of passing gun laws if we're not going to enforce them? If you want to talk about gun control, that's where you need to start. We've got 300 gun laws on the books right now. At the end of the day, it's about how we enforce the law.
