Garden Variety Metaphors

President-elect Barack Obama’s transition team is showing its hostility toward lawful firearm owners by “weeding out” job applicants who own firearms themselves, a Second Amendment group says.
I don't know if he's weeding so much as sowing some seeds with that requirement for "complete ownership and registration information." Then I'd expect them to do some pruning and trimming before the all-out weed-whacking.

As long as we're cultivating, and deciding what will grow and what will be uprooted, let's not forget the Tree of Liberty...

Yep. That "Tree of Liberty" is looking a liitle parched, but I think it will be abundantly watered soon.
