Obama tries a new ad that attempts to pander to 2nd Amendment enthusiasts

October 8, 2008

Smells like desperation to me.

Sorry Barry, I’m not stupid enough to believe for one second that you support the 2nd Amendment. I’ve seen your record, and it’s not one that is pro-2nd Amendment. You’d be the most anti-gun president ever elected, sir, and for that you’ll never have my vote.

Obama urges supporters to LIE about his support of the 2nd Amendment

September 21, 2008

“I need you to go out and talk to your friends and talk to your neighbors. I want you to talk to them whether they are independent or whether they are Republican. I want you to argue with them and get in their face,” he said.

I’m going to start posting weekly collections […]
