However the FACT is, their argument obviously failed. Now didn't it?

Not at all. Remember your disingenuous challenge to MileHi last night. You wanted him to cite precedents you knew didn't exist. However, that doesn't discount the fact that several months ago every media outlet in the country carried the story of Ashcroft's reversal of the justice department's stance regarding the 2nd being a "collective" right. (effectively shreading your position) While he may not have had fact in hand; he wasn't wrong. Of course the weasels will refrain from any challenges until they get an AG who will support their adgenda, but that won't mean their still full of it.

Do you cheat at solitaire?

You are grasping at straw men. Ashcroft changed the Clinton Justice Department policy that happened to agree with "militia only" and I agree with him. However NO precedent was set outside of how the current JD would approach enforcement.
