I remember that song.

I loved it!

Obama´s backed off on gun grabbing for now because it´s too big a political fight he can´t win so he´s dancing around the edges. But what he is doing in compiling info on legal gunowners all over the country into a centralized database he could use in the future.

Profile and dossier building on American citizens should be illegal but he´s using the school shooting to overwhelm opposition.

The NRA, and some of its supporters, had an over-the-top reaction in anticipation of something that didn´t happen. All the screaming that he was trying to confiscate all guns - he never said that, he never proposed that. The Congressman who was ready to start impeachment proceedings if Obama dared issued any executive orders...and the executive orders were requesting more studies, telling Justice to enforce existing laws, etc.

When you are hurt, yes, speak up and speak up mightily. There will be a boisterous conversation in Congress on the proposed legislation and yes, most of it will not pass. But the NRA has lost the high ground by pretending that existing laws, with existing enforcement levels, was a line in the sand. The Second Amendment sacrosanct? Okay. Laws and regulations as of 2012 sacrosanct? Nope.

The prezzzy is out of his depth on this issue and being egged on by the lunatic media and the statists. I´m sending money to the NRA the only group willing to stand up to this tyrant with strength in numbers, the are willing to fight unlike the GOP.

I support everyone doing their part to keep guns out of the hands of lunatics and away from kids without training. I´m not going on some database by answering these questions. It forces us to lie, because if we refuse to answer, we get put in a database anyway.

So #3, a "nudge" does not mean that they are coming to take the guns. Really?

Perhaps we replace the repub party with the NRA....It´s nice to see an organization fighting with us instead of against ...Just feels good not to have a bunch of wankers compromise and back down....Unfortunately, the country club sect will NEVER follow suit.

FTA: "The subject of the song is simply considered a danger to society, a menace if you will, crazy, and unable to make rational decisions on his own."

This song describes the current imperial, so-called president. (No, he doesn´t deserve a capital "P")

"The NRA, and some of its supporters, had an over-the-top reaction in anticipation of something that didn´t happen."

No, they didn´t.

Silly rabbit gun control is never good.

#3 -- Yeah, but it sure worked, didn´t it? Over the top is the way to go, obviously.

Ignore the resident troll.

If the left and/or Obama were to wish to disarm America do you for a nanosecond believe that we would be told that upfront? It´yellow has webed feet a beak and quacks but it´s not.....

#3 is way wrong.

NØbama had much more sinister plans for what he was going to announce yesterday -- including confiscation.

But then the NRA rose up -- with the added power of 250,000 new members in that last month -- and made it clear that we would fight to the death to stop NØbama from infringing on our 2nd amendment rights.

So NØbama got the message loud and clear, and knew this was a fight he was going to lose. NØbama cares far more about his reputation and legacy than anything else (being the most egotistical president in history -- even out-egoing Clinton), so he backed down massively.

As #11 said, it worked!!! The NRA lookes stronger than ever!!! Thank God!!!

FTA: Obama also, back in 1996 when he was running for the Illinois Senate, filled out a questionnaire for a community group in Chicago in which he answered "yes" to a question that included whether the State should ban the manufacture, sale, and possession of handguns.

For some reason this reminds me of the punch line of that hoary old joke:

...and Mr RabBIT is here with the ___t.
