The Demoncrat's New Strategy

Gun owners and defenders of the 2nd Amendment, beware - there are sneaky things afoot in Washington DC and around the country.

The Demoncrats have finally realized just what a "hot button" issue the 2nd Amendment is with Americans, and with the very real possibility of the Demoncrats losing control of the Congress this November, they're starting to suddenly change their stance on gun control. Politicians who have long been pro-gun control and anti-2nd Amendment are now changing their tunes, saying they're "pro 2nd Amendment" and supporters of gun rights. Which makes you sit back and ask yourself, "After SO many years - decades, really - of anti-gun and anti-2nd Amendment commitment, why would they suddenly change their minds on this?

Simple. They want your vote in November.

It all started back in 1994 when Al Gore lost the Presidential race to George Bush. Gun rights and the 2nd Amendment was a key factor in that election, and it was "pro-gun states" that carried Bush to victory. At that point some of the people in the Demoncratic party started to realize that being "anti-gun" was a sure way to lose an election. And the events in our nation concerning gun rights and the recent Supreme Court opinions on the 2nd Amendment, Washington DC's gun law and Chicago's gun law have only bolstered the thought in the Demoncrat's minds that maybe they need to change their public opinion and public view on the issue of gun control. After all, statistics don't lie, and the statistics say that if you want to get elected you better be a supporter of gun rights and the 2nd Amendment.

Note, please, that I said "public opinion" and "public view." I said it that way for a reason - I have no doubt in my mind that once elected on the platform of "pro-2nd Amendment," these lifelong Demoncrats will abandon their carefully-constructed "public view" and will then get back to work dismantling your right to keep and bear arms.

Once a snake, always a snake.

But as for me, I'm not so easily fooled. I learned a very long time ago from both my parents and personal experience that you judge a man by his DEEDS and not by either his words or his skin color. And in the case of these "newly minted" supporters of the 2nd Amendment, when they start actually DOING SOMETHING to prove to me that they've truly changed their stands and not just putting on an act to win votes, THEN I'll support them. There have been too many politicians in the past - the most recent being NObama - who have said during a campaign that they support gun rights and the 2nd Amendment only to have their actions or voting records in Congress prove that they're lying out their ass just to get your vote. I truly believe that such is the case here.

So beware, America, there are sneaky dealings afoot.
