Whoa! Whoa, Timothy! I didn't say Obama could do anything. I only said with him in office, I think we will lose our guns. And (I also tell my friends) I would never tell who I am voting for, but I believe at this point, Obama will win. And Pete, we will always be in debt from year to year, but if I remember correctly, 2000 was the first time the debt clock stopped since Kennedy was in office.

I only hope that the 2012 election is between an Italian Sidelock and a Spanish Boxlock.

Geez DRM, your last few posts here have been to lament political discussion on a shotgun board. If both candidates were solidly pro-gun, I might be inclined to agree. Here's how I handle your problem... I don't shoot Bismuth so I don't click on those topics. Darne's do nothing for me so I don't read or comment on posts pertaining to them either. Hope this helps.


A true sign of mental illness is any gun owner who would vote for an Anti-Gunner like Joe Biden.

Really he was in office spending the national treasure and blood like a drunken soldier at port. Quite criminal in my mind. Just because Bill did it, doesn't mean Obama can do it. And I'm not a radical or anything like that, but it was different just now typing the name Obama in the thought of a president of the USA. Hummmmmm.....

When Germany was in such a crises, they voted in Adolph Hitler, we must vote for the correct canditate!


Quibble: If you are going to cite Hitler in a rant at least spell his first name correctly!


Thanks for the heads up Dingelberry, I'll make a note to self

Keith,

1) That was the point of this post topic, and since this post was originated by me it stands to reason that my posts would have that position.

2) I don't see why this makes a difference and why gun politics has to work its way into nearly every post topic now. Even though one candidate has clarified and/or changed his position on this issue (he's apparantly been listening to us, but now we "choose" not to believe anything has changed at all), everyone just concentrates on the original view of him.

3) I totally agree and I do exactly that now. But even when a topic starts out fine and is running along smoothly, suddenly it's been hijacked into politics. Even when it is not hijacked I get as tired of seeing "liberals" in posts just as much as I would have seeing "gun nuts/crazies".

The political talk doesn't bother me, except when it's boorish and ignorant. It's a window, a thermometer of the thinking of a particular group, the majority fairly comfortable Republicans. The board is an extraordinary instrument for assessing the mood of the country i.e. what members are saying now about domestic and foreign affairs is significantly different from what they' were saying six years ago.

The problem is that it usually gets there rather quickly...

Ignorance is generally considered any viewpoint which differs from "Mine". So much for ignorant posts.

Anyone picking a prez on just the issue of guns is no better than the other side thats is picking a prez just because he is black.
