That fits in perfectly with those we can expect to see tossed under the bus...
We're the Only Ones...
Got a few of these today and no time for individual posts:

...Who Just Want to Hold You Enough

In Response to Today's GRE
Just got this via email in response to today's GRE:
Your latest article was spot on. We got hosed by the Brady's and MAIG because they were using a form emailer to send in comments to the OMB. Apparently the OMB doesn't care about automated emails, they just count the pro and anti tally. That's how the anti-gunners beat us.
John Richardson of the blog No Lawyers Only Guns and Money and I were upset that we got one upped. So we worked together to fight fire with fire. I managed to figure out how to set up an automated email system of our own. It took some work but now we have it up and running on his blog. You simply fill out your name, email, city and state (optional), and there is a pre-filled note stating opposition to the plan. You hit submit, and the website emailmeform.com sends the email to oira_submission@omb.eop.gov on your behalf with your name, email, and city and state if you provided it, along with the pre-filled note and any changes or additional comments you want.
The website I used to create the form mailer is http://www.emailmeform.com/ They have all sorts of different forms for websites, if you want to check it out. It is free for up to 5 forms. You create the form and tell the form what to do with the submission, and then it spits out a html code you can copy and paste to any website.
We're trying to spread the word as quick and as wide as we can. If you wouldn't mind posting a link to http://onlygunsandmoney.blogspot.com/2011/05/easy-way-to-comment-on-atfs-power-grab.html or I attached the html code so you can post it yourself on your websites. Either way this is a simple way for our side to drum up support against this plan.
Also, this will work in the future for these comment periods. Since the OMB doesn't care what you say, only that you are pro or anti, we can use this form mailer for other issues or comment periods.
Will gun owner apathy enable ATF’s ‘emergency’ long gun registration scheme?
“Profiles in apathy.” You know, inaction by gun owners that enables “gun control," derails valiant efforts and disheartens those who continually find themselves carrying an inordinate share of the burden? [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary presents the simplest of tasks, and notes how even this is too much for too many.

“Major General Putnam about to take command of one of the Wings of the Grand Army, before he leaves the troops who have served under him the winter past, thinks it his duty to signify to them his entire approbation of their regular and soldier like conduct, and wishes them a successful and glorious campaign.” [Read]
