"I do wish we had a republican running in this election." (SARCASM OFF)
How about a conservative?

Take a look at the Constitution Party. I am leaning towards them now.

This ain't your daddy's Reagan

Reagan made a public statement supporting the Brady bill.

Now that's funny. Someone points out to you that a right does not need to be justified and you call that a silly game.

Those "assault weapons" that you can't understand why anyone "needs" are identical in function to most hunting rifles and shotguns.

[RiflemanSharpe]

Of all things, Bush understands he MUST be re-elected, he does not want to go down in history, like father like son. If he continues with in your face policies towards conservatives, his worst nightmare may be realized.

I agree, I am looking at the Constitution Party.

[Phaedrus]

When it comes to "assualt" weapons, too many people leave their brains at the door.

[KEVLAR]

You forgot .....
were not conservative,
were not republican,
we are irrelevant, insignificant and our vote is not needed.

BTW, you aren't paramilitary, are you? :)

I used to belong to a militia. A REAL militia. The New York State Guard, which was under direct control of the governor, as opposed to the National Guard, which has been nationalized and put under control of the President -- TOTALLY defeating the concept of a militia.

I don't care if you answered it 1,000,000,0001 times... You've never answered me.

If it is too much of a burden for you to bear... then just ignore my posts...

I think I would prefer that to the "poor put upon" attitude you take while you have to school me on Government 101.

Because they cause you to pee your pants in fright should in no way impact my ownership of them.

My word! Aren't you an ass?

[Phaedrus]

... assault weapons ...

[carton253]

Didn't read this post before I posted #88.

Since you've taken back pee-pants comment. I will take back my "ass" comment.

[Lazamataz]

Reagan made a public statement supporting the Brady bill.

Comon, bud, you know that was a favor to his friend, James Brady. Reagan wasn't a gun control afficinado.

[Orangedog]

...and you'll invariably find a gungrabbing weenie.

I think the better term for was "soccer mom," the most vile creature in the country.

[Lazamataz]

Since you've taken back pee-pants comment. I will take back my "ass" comment.

Okay, then I will take back my toothless inbred no-brain dumbass piece of s**t commie m***rf***r comment that I was going to post later.

Excuses, Excuses. Why don't you castigate Reagan as you do Bush.

BTW, Reagan raised taxes, grnated amnesty, and never signed an anti-abortion bill.

[BlackbirdSST]

We don't all love him that much.

I don't love him at all. Now, that will be twisted by the usual suspects that I hate him, when in fact what I hate is Socialism and Socialist Policies. Blackbird.

[cynicom]

In my small town we are being swamped with illegals. No one cares. Bush "borrows" money to give for aids in Africa. Biggest spender since Johnson. And wheeee, we will cut the deficit in half in five years. That alone is outrageous. Throw money by the billions into the blackhole of "no childrun left behind". The list is endless and he seems not to care nor do his pub supporters.

[Lazamataz]

Excuses, Excuses. Why don't you castigate Reagan as you do Bush.

Reagan's not President?

Comon man, let's retain the civil approach we've had with one another. Keep that tone nice, and I'll do the same.

The opposite of love is hate. Nice try at trying Clintonese though.

...Let me understand what you are saying... Joe Citizen needs an assault weapon just in case he has to overthrow the government?...

Precisely.

"The Second Amendment is a doomsday provision, one designed for those exceptionally rare circumstances where all other rights have failed, where the government refuses to stand for re-election and silences those who protest, where courts have lost the courage to oppose, or can find no one to enforce their decrees,''

Justice Alex Kosinski ninth district.

Bush is alienating his base. He either needs to wake up or he need to be replaced by a true conservative. I am tired of voting for the lessor of two evil. And if you say I am throwing my vote away, how can that be if I vote for what I truly believe.
