THE Litmus Test
"If you don’t support the Second Amendment, what else in the Constitution don’t you support?" asked Paul Chauvin, 51.

If they don't respect the Second Amendment, as far as I'm concerned, they don't respect the Constitution anywhere else." [More]That's as far as anyone who can think is concerned.

A Form Reply from Sherrod
Dear Mr. Codrea:
Thank you for expressing your views on firearms legislation.
The Second Amendment makes clear that Americans have the right to own guns, and the Supreme Court over time has given meaning to this right. Americans know that with rights come responsibilities. And when our children and families are no longer safe at our schools, in our malls, and in our movie theaters, then we as a country must take action.
Last year, the Senate considered bipartisan legislation that would have provided a reasonable approach to expanding background checks for gun sales. While individuals who purchase guns from licensed gun dealers are subject to background checks, those who obtain guns from other sources, such as the internet or gun shows, are not. Senators Manchin and Toomey introduced a bipartisan proposal that would have required background checks for all gun sales in commercial settings. Such a change would help ensure that guns stay out of the hands of criminals or the mentally unstable. Approximately 90 percent of all Americans supported this proposal, but it was blocked by a filibuster that required a supermajority for passage. I am disappointed that a minority of the Senate prevented action on this issue.
Gun control is a complex issue and we must work together to uphold our Constitution while at the same time ensuring that our communities are safe. Should the Senate consider this issue in the future, I will be sure to keep your views in mind.
Thank you again for being in touch with me.
Sincerely,
Sherrod BrownSo how did this weasel-wording fraud get elected to the Senate in the first place?

So I guess I'd best post this here, in re the McDaniel/Cochran race:
Terrific article. Thanks. The crying shame is that we could've had several *dozen* Brat-Cantor-type upsets, had the gun rights, tea party, conservative and Republican
communities graded honestly and lifted a finger. Not least, we could've forced Lindsey Graham into a runoff and then defeated him. For evidence, one need only see the Brat-Cantor race. Brat went from being down 33 points to winning by 12 in one month, thanks to haphazard grassroots and talking head support, and thanks to the endorsement, ads and robocalling for Brat by Gun Owners of America. Cantor was defeated despite the NRA endorsing and campaigning for him, despite GOA's failure to downgrade Cantor from an A to the D or F he deserves (thus undermining GOA's own national endorsement and spending for Brat) and despite the national Sterile Bee Queen "Tea Party" groups' passive-aggressive or open support for Cantor, open-immigration and amnesty. Lindsey Graham avoided a runoff by just 9% against 6 more conservative candidates. Given the rapid Brat swing, Graham could've easily lost by 9% instead, forced into a runoff, then defeated, if the major loyal American organizations and talking heads had lifted a finger. At least Graham was only rated C by GOA. But, had GOA's grade reflected GOA's observation of the effect of open immigration on gun rights, Graham would've been an F, that alone might have been enough to hold him to a runoff.
The national "Tea Party" groups "stayed out" of the Brat-Cantor race, yet immediately took credit for it in their typical, fraudulent, Nigerian-style fundraising emails. All major "Tea Party" groups either openly endorse amnesty or passive-aggressively support it (e.g., Club for Growth). Sal Russo's "Tea Party" Express has endorsed amnesty, < http://theteaparty.net/>TheTeaParty.net is in bed with the open-immigration San Francisco neo-"Libertarian" group The Independent Institute (effectively an "Immigration-Socialist" group), and "FreedomWorks" was founded by openly
pro-amnesty beltway lobbyist and Chamber of Commerce waterboy Dick "Amnesty" Armey. All these groups, including "Tea Party Patriots", suck money out of Tea Party candidate coffers with hysterical, fundraising cons claiming to support certain candidates or issues -- 95% of the money actually goes for lavish salaries and sweetheart consulting contracts.
Joe Miller has clearly and consistently opposed
and exposed amnesty in personal communications and campaign emails. e.g.,
< http://joemiller.us/2013/06/amnesty-another-ruling-class-effort-to-destroy-America > http://joemiller.us/2013/06/am...
Also, Miller's opponents are waterboys for the U.S. Chamber of Commerce. Hence, it's incredible that Miller has no NumbersUSA rating, which means either NumbersUSA neglected to send it to him and make sure he got it, or he declined or neglected to fill out their questionnaire. I emailed Miller and his campaign about this last week, so if he
refuses or neglects to reply or fill it out, then he will pay a price, including my support. I've been a Miller donor since 2010.

Here's a detailed job description. I can't open a related PeopleSoft link without enabling cookies, something I'm not prepared to do at the moment.
"Caught" implies they were trying to hide it. The opening could be related to administrative functions following Obama and Kerry acting like the ATT is something they have legitimate executive authority to regard as de facto ratified. I'd also need to know if such a position has ever been filled here before and what those people did. While I wouldn't be inclined to jump to such "definitive" conclusions, this certainly merits being looked into.

Superman had X-ray vision. Now, so does the United States military, in the form of an X-ray gun that can see through fabric, rubber and aluminum to find drugs, money, explosive liquids and even people. [More]For some reason I'm reminded of a Family Guy episode...

‘Day by Day’ begins annual fundraising drive
Cartoonists with non-“progressive” loyalties need not apply. Which means if Muir is to be able to continue the work, to sustain himself, and to maybe even prosper and enjoy well-deserved recognition, it’s up to those who receive value from it to give some back in return -- not as a donation, but as appreciative compensation for enjoyment provided, wisdom imparted, and services rendered. [More]Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes ideological discrimination is alive and well, with hackneyed collectivists wallowing at the trough while originals rely on those perceptive enough to recognize real talent.

Dell statement on school’s web blocking suggests low traffic on anti-gun sites
“An automated numerical frequency algorithm is used to determine the order of the queue for previously unrated sites,” Sweeney elaborated. “Sites that receive the highest traffic are placed at the top of the queue, and conversely sites that have low traffic volume are lower in the queue.” [More]Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes the simplest explanation could be that citizen disarmament groups are mostly Astroturf, and there just aren’t that many truly committed grassroots activists.

Minority Gun Owners Share No "Stigma of Violence"
That make it all the more outrageous that he was on the receiving end of ugly insults, reminiscent of the vilest things screamed at Civil Rights marchers in the heyday of their activism, along with a pathetic attempt to dismiss and diminish his efforts by the media arm of the powerful and connected Center for American Progress Action Fund. [More]My latest JPFO Alert notes, true to their "Every Day is Opposite Day" natures, it is the "progressives" who prove to be the most ignorant and hateful of bigots.
Cleveland Mayor Jackson’s gun diversion shows desperation to appear effective
Funny, though, how “progressive” gun-grabbers who scream loudest about “home rule” get real quiet every time a national disarmament diktat is passed, but then, if they didn’t have hypocrisy going for them, they’d lose their strongest suit. It figures this confederacy of dunces is on board with Mike Bloomberg’s Mayors Against (Your) Guns/Everytown for Fake “Safety” scam. Still, as ridiculous as they are, it would be a mistake to dismiss them solely by pointing and laughing at them, as richly as Jackson and his court deserve it (and as much as this goofy photo of retiree Jay Westbrook invites it). [More]Today’s Gun Rights Examiner report notes Cleveland’s mayor has to do something to appear relevant, so, being an unimaginative dullard, he’s once more decided attacking guns will keep him in the limelight.

For some reason, this reminds me of when Ann Richards wouldn't "let" Texans vote on concealed carry.
Not that I'd feel bound by the results where unalienable rights are concerned...

Sorry, those commanded not to infringe are too busy demonizing us.
It does provide an interesting perspective on the "resistance is futile" so RKBA is a useless deterrent bluff.
