I think what the president is saying is, in effect, "I believe the Senators (listed above) were right. Americans cannot be trusted with battle rifles with magazines holding 'too many' rounds, or which have evil features such as bayonet lugs or flash suppressors. Even as our country is engaged in a war against a nebulous, despicible, nearly unidentifiable enemy known as international terrorism, which could strike anyone, anywhere, at any time, I believe the American People should be denied the most basic of defensive arms, the rifle. Senators Feinstein, Lautenberg, Kennedy, and Daschle had a vision in 1994 for the safety of the American people and continuing the ban of these evil, ugly guns is necessary to further that vision. I stand united with the liberal democrats. BAN THESE GUNS!"
Yeah, nothin' to be upset about. Shouldn't be on my 'radar screen,' anyway.
