That's probably because unlike dhimmicrats, you likely exercise your Second Amendment rights. :-))

That I do. But I also learned how to handle bullies well before I was out of 8th grade.

Rule number 1. Let them understand that you will not back down -- ever!

Rule number 2. They understand that even if they were to win the fight, they will get hurt. It will not be a painless experience.

Rule number 3. When they least expect it, you will get even.

Translate that from schoolyard bullies to hard ball politics, and it still works well.

But if someone wanted to take it further than slimy politics, yes, I still have the 2nd Amendment and would not hesitate to invoke it if necessary.

I think Obama is making a big mistake in delaying his reconciliation vote by a month or two. That gives the Blue Dogs and other red district Dems time to see if this sham-summit moves the poll numbers at all.

If I'm one of those guys, the prospect of a decisive defeat in November sounds a lot scarier than anything Rahmbo might threaten, especially given his own precarious position.

I had 13 fights with the bully in my grammar school. I lost the first 12. Then I came up behind him and smashed his head into a steel basketball pole and he never bothered me again.
