Obama Threatens to 'Bring a Gun': What If McCain Had Done Same
Hillary Clinton's mention of RFK's assassination was the final nail in the coffin of her candidacy. Along similar lines, can you imagine the howls of MSM outrage if John McCain were to suggest that he might "bring a gun" to his campaign against Barack Obama?

Miami Herald: 2nd Amendment is 'Mythical Right
The Miami (FL) Herald let lose with another propagandistic broadside against the 2nd Amendment on Thursday featuring some more moaning and false statements about how horrible it is for America that the misnamed "assault weapons ban" has lapsed.

Worse, he has equated an American right to the…
Herbert: Obama Has Dems Worried About a 'Debacle in November

ABC News: Mexican Drug Violence U.S. Constitution's Fault
