No, it's not a singing group like Crosby, Stills, Nash, and Young. They are more like 'the four horsemen of the apocalypse.'
McCain, Graham, Collins, and Snowe are the four Republicans who are most likely to vote in favor of the cap and trade energy tax in the Senate.
The good news is that a dozen Democrats have expressed doubt about the bill due to its enormous cost to the citizens and our economy.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 7/7/09
Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:

David Codrea asks the question, 'Is the Gun Culture to Blame for McNair's Death?'
Kurt Hofmann sounds the alarm on legislation in Congress giving AG Eric Holder the authority to arbitrarily declare certain orgs as 'hate groups.' And that includes gun organizations and gun owners.
JR, our friend over at 'A Keyboard and a .45,' has been on a Medifast journey of weight loss. Today he gives a report at the 6-week interval. Go over there and give him some moral support!
Alphecca reports that the Michigan Attorney-General has joined the NRA in challenging Chicago's handgun ban before the U.S. Supreme Court.
CarteachO has an excellent read on sight focus and prescription glasses, in case you missed it.
Texas Fred has the scoop on U.S. Senator John Cornyn, R-Texas, being booed at a Tea Party.
Walls of the City has some good news from Tennessee concerning guns in parks.

Days of our Trailers posts a must-read on the serial killer in South Carolina. He had a rap sheet 25 pages long, and he was out on parole.
Free in Idaho presents 'one little detail' that is well-worth your consideration. Short and to the point.
Wow. Take a look at THIS from Say Uncle concerning what cops are telling their families to do!
Sebastian provides a state-by-state map of the Attorneys-General who signed/did not sign the amicus brief in support of SCOTUS taking up the Incorporation of the Second Amendment.
LOL. The Wandering Minstrel is retiring and says he can't wait to get the heck out of the 'People's Republik of Kalifornia.'

Breda is solo-hosting tonight's edition of Gun Nuts Radio.
In case you missed it, The Smallest Minority has a MUST-read entitled, 'The Death of a Civilization.' Read it all.

STOP CAP & TRADE IN U.S. SENATE!
Today we the citizens MUST get back to work to stop the ominous Cap and Trade bill that Democrats, Obama, and some Republicans want to shove down our throats.
Friends, this albatross will sink the economy at a time when we cannot withstand such a hit. Not only is it a bad concept, but the timing comes at the worst possible moment for the American economy.
Michelle Malkin has the latest on the battle in the U.S. Senate that starts TODAY.
Time to burn up the phone lines, faxes, and emails to let ALL Senators know that the citizens are OUTRAGED that they would even briefly consider such a sham. And let them know they WILL have hell to pay if they vote for this monstrosity that will cost over a million U.S. jobs and raise our taxes and energy costs by an extra $1300 to $3000 PER YEAR.
And be sure the RINOS get the message--John McCain, Lindsey Graham, Susan Collins, Olympia Snowe, and others of their ilk who will sell out the citizens in order to 'cut a deal' with the devil.

Second Amendment News Roundup for 7/6/09
Focusing on guns, politics, and news of interest, here is today's Second Amendment News Roundup:
Western Rifle Shooters Association has a must-read on the various types of traps set for a society by those who wish to destroy it and then change it.
Standing By has another must-read, alerting us to the fact that now it's THE LEFTWING that's calling for an armed revolt. Gee, and here I thought only us 'rightwing, extremist, gun-totin' homegrown terrorists' were supposedly all for armed revolt!
Way Up North, as an Alaskan, posts some thoughts concerning Governor Palin's resignation.
Conservative Libertarian Outpost presents a shocking piece concerning the Latinos and their threat to the U.S., as depicted in their celebration of 'The FARCE of July'!
Codrea's Gun Rights Examiner points to a Republican weasel who is opposed to concealed carry. Yes, my friends, they are in the GOP too...like Mitt Romney, for example.
Kurt Hofmann examines California's 'assault weapon' ban and notes that even with the ban some think it's not restrictive enough! Just like the antis. When they succeed with one ban, they move to more restrictions!
Insight on Freedom says that Americans are continuing to arm themselves in record numbers.
The Rustmeister notes that a sports writer used the death of NFL star Steve McNair as an opportunity to go on an anti-gun rant.
Notoriously Conservative has interesting reading on a car that costs only 600 bucks and gets 258 miles per gallon. It's made by a German company but it's sold only in China.
Brigid writes about battles on the home front and notes that our soldiers are often returning home from overseas, only to find they have no job and no home.
Tam wonders about whether a certain gun is more 'patriotic' than the rest.
Say Uncle comments on fixing healthcare in America. A good read!
Robb Allen shares a list of some gun stuff he needs. Take a look at the list--there are some things there we all need to make sure we have.
Sebastian disagrees with Eugene Volokh's assertion that assault weapons bans 'could be legal' from a Constitutional standpoint. This is part 2 of his critique of Volokh. Be sure to click on link for Part 1 as well.
Ride Fast and Shoot Straight reminds us that this is the birthday of the AK-47.
John Jacob H reports that citizens in the small town of Gaffney, SC have started their own 'run on the gun stores' in light of a serial killer on the loose who has murdered 5 in the past 2 weeks. Gaffney is a small town in a sparsely-populated county. Naturally, something like this will cause quite a stir, more so than in large cities.
Pax Parabellum has a VERY important warning for America that arose out of his observations of what's happening 'across the pond.'
From Mike Vanderboegh: 'The Rule of Law is Dead, but the Rule of Man Should Take No Comfort from It.'

We'll take a look at the political landscape and discuss some core conservative principles around which all conservatives should be able to unite.

Gun Nuts posts a wrap-up and audio of last night's edition of Gun Nuts Radio.
Sebastian says that the federal government is now completely out of control. I agree 100%. The question remains how best to proceed to tame it.
