Snowflakes in Hell

From the Political Victory fund, which is NRA’s Political Action Committee:

Fairfax, VA-Today the National Rifle Association Political Victory Fund (NRA-PVF) expanded its advertising campaign with the release of additional commercials further detailing Sen. Barack Obama’s long anti-gun record in battleground states across the country. The NRA-PVF commercials began airing Monday in Virginia, North Carolina, Florida, Ohio, Minnesota and Michigan.

These ads, which expose the truth about Obama’s record opposing the rights of law-abiding gun owners, are currently running in Pennsylvania, New Mexico, and Colorado. The media spots feature a variety of people from all walks of life, including war veterans, hunters, families and former law enforcement officers criticizing the many  anti-gun and anti-hunter votes cast by Obama as a state and as a U.S. Senator. NRA-PVF is also running Spanish-language commercials in several states.

No doubt that will keep the Obama’s campaigns lawyers busy sending out more threat letters to keep his record on gun control from getting out there.

This guy left a comment on my blog stating:

I’m an NRA member, have a concealed carry permit from the state of Ohio, a .45 Smith & Wesson I carry for protection and I have no qualms voting for Obama. When you say there was nothing incorrect in the NRA ads about Obama’s history you’re wrong. I cleared up the misconceptions here:

I welcome any gun owner to watch that and debate me on the points.

Dude, did you even bother to actually check this guy’s record?  If you don’t believe he’s got it in for gun owners, you’re a tool.  I’d be happy to debate you, but it’s kind of pointless when the guy’s record is staring at you in the face as plain as day.  It’s not my problem you don’t want to hear it.  Does it even bother you that your chosen candidate apparently think it’s an acceptable campaign tactic to threaten the broadcast licenses of anyone who says things about him that he disapproves of?  Is this the America you want to live in?  His blog is here if you want to go have a talk with him.

From Bruce, who liked Palin’s performance last night:

Now, let’s get to work.

I’ll be doing a little door-to-door campaigning with the McCain people in Exeter on Saturday morning. Shoot me an e-mail if you wanna join us. Also, I was at the Stratham office earlier today. They’ve got some of them honkin’ big McCain/Palin yard signs (think sheet of plywood) if
you want one.

This definitely isn’t the election for complacency.  Just running down the ways Obama can screw us, without executing a head on attack, is rather frightning.  And that’s just assuming we’re not looking at another attempt at a new assault weapons ban, which I can promise you will be worse than the last one.

Bloomberg is seeking a third term, hoping to overturn the city’s term limits laws.
