Bye. See how many gun laws Buchanan or Browne get repealed. In Ohio, my REPUBLICAN representatives have steadily pushed a concealed carry law, and are getting closer. The LIBERTARIAN/REFORMIES have done, well, nothing. Because they can't.

I am not comparing Bush to other possible candidates, and that has nothing to do with your assertions about Bush vs gun control.

I realize that an unelected candidate can't pass anything, but when it comes to gun control, Bush can't/won't either. For me, it's not just this one issue. Bush is playing fast and loose with my freedoms, and relying on a Supreme Court that has, in the past not been reliable when it comes to Constitutionality. It's especially galling when Bush admits that he knows there are Constitutional problems when he signed it. That means, to me, that he has no core principles. At least none that we as citizens can rely on.

Bush has demonstrated that he is a political animal of the same stripe as his predecessor, and that is not what he campaigned on, and it's not what conservatives voted for when they helped him into office.

How many times do you have to be hit upside the head before you gain some principles of your own?
