"Idaho is Idaho," said Peter Hamm, the communications director of the Brady Campaign to Prevent Gun Violence and an Interior Department official in the Clinton administration. But he called the Kempthorne-backed proposal to allow firearms in parks a "backward" and unsafe" idea, and said that it's not up to just the Idaho senators or Idaho residents to determine gun regulations for federal lands that belong to all Americans."Idaho is Idaho."
What kind of condescending "clinging to their guns" urban elitist crap is that? But then again, Hamm-handed Peter has never exactly been one to carefully choose his words.
They quote Ryan, and I know many of you are impatient for word on what's happening. Please remain patient--our first concern as far as that goes needs to be doing what's right for him, so again I ask all to please hold on speculation.

"Idaho is Idaho"
Why don't they just leave us alone then?
Aren't these the guys that don't want us to interfere local regulation of guns? I guess they are only for that when the locals are trying to pass tougher regulations.
"Idaho is Idaho." And thank God for that! "Alabama is Alabama" too. Our state motto is "We dare defend our rights." Then there's "New Mexico: Where all men are real men (and the women are too)." Well, that's what I overheard anyway when I was out there on the border with the Minutemen. ;-)
