Second Amendment News Roundup for 9/17/08

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

From Codrea's War on Guns:
*'Do As We Say'--it seems the JBTs are not so meticulous about their own stuff even as they demand gun dealers cross every 't' and dot every 'i'--the hypocrites.
*'Post-Heller Junk Science'--the antis now want to use science to regulate the 2nd Amendment into non-existence.
*'When We Said Wealth Redistribution, We Mean YOUR Wealth'--these typical liberals show their rank hypocrisy when it comes to taxes. A MUST read!
*'The Second Storm'--the 'gub'ment' is set to impose martial law on parts of the Texas coast, just as they did in New Orleans!
*'Elitist and Wealthy'--David comments on an idiot's remarks about Sarah Palin's membership in a couple of gun rights groups.

Armed and Safe says that Philly is going to get some partners in crime.

From Nicki at The Liberty Zone:
*'More Retarded Nitwittery from the Old and Irrelevant'--look at what's crawled out from under the floor-boards to babble for Obama!
*'New Cure for the Welfare State'--this is a goodie!
*'Brave New Schools'--more on the imbecilic notion that teachers should be disarmed.

From Mike McCarville:
*'Poll Finds McCain-Palin Surge in New Jersey'--Palin is continuing to help McCain pull to within the margin of error with Obama in heavily-infested 'blue states!'
*Oklahoma Congresswoman Mary Fallin comments on the recent gun vote for D.C. in the U.S. Congress.
*Mike cites a new poll that indicates the public has completely lost faith in the mainstream media during Campaign '08.

Sebastian says that the Philadelphia Enquirer has shown itself to be a rag. It seems lots of newspapers are falling into that ash-heap these days.

Ahab posts last night's show of Gun Nuts--the Next Generation, in case you missed it.

Breda is the new co-host for Gun Nuts--The Next Generation, while Squeaks is on hiatus.

Texas Fred has the MUST-read of the day concerning the discovery of the single largest oil reserve in the history of the U.S.--right here on the mainland.

Walls of the City shows off his Unorganized Militia patch on his jacket. Neat!

Western Rifle Shooters Association posts some thoroughly disturbing info on what our government thinks of militia members.

John Lott has a copy of what ABC edited out of the Palin interview with Charles Gibson. Wait to you see how utterly biased it was!

Gateway Pundit reports that the energy bill the Democrats approved, which supposedly allows offshore oil drilling, is a hoax that actually stifles drilling!

Second Amendment News Roundup for 8/1/08

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

Armed and Safe comments on Google's shut-down of David Codrea's blog.

Armed and Safe also posts THIS on the recent Vandergboegh controversy.

Squeaky, by the way, announces that next Tuesday's podcast of Gun Nuts--The Next Generation will feature Kurt from Armed and Safe and Sebastian from Snow Flakes in Hell discussing their disagreement on the Vanderboegh controversy.

Speaking of Mike Vanderboegh, be sure to read his latest entry entitled, 'Deacon,' at Western Rifle Shooters Association.

JR at A Keyboard and a .45 posts 'what's wrong with this picture?' Go have a look.

Mike McCarville reports that U.S. Senator Jim Inhofe (R-Oklahoma) has blasted the Democrats over their inaction on gas prices and oil drilling here at home. Good!

Gateway Pundit says that the GOP in the U.S. House has refused to vacate the premises, staging a floor revolt against Pelosi and the Democrats over their refusal to deal with offshore oil drilling.

Michelle Malkin is providing continuous updates on the GOP revolt and says that they may well call on the President to call a special emergency session to deal with oil drilling, going over Pelosi's head.

Malkin also reports that today marks the 20th anniversary of Rush Limbaugh's radio program. Here's a hearty congrats to EL RUSHBO! Mega-dittos!!

Syd at Front Sight, Press provides good commentary on the bipartisan deal the NRA struck with Congress to restore Constitutional rights in D.C.

Say Uncle says that Google's shut-down of blogs for supposedly being 'spam blogs' is a sign of their ineptitude.

Of Life and Liberty, on the other hand, says it's pure censorship. I tend to agree, given that Google threw free speech under the bus when they cut a deal with the Chi-Coms to do business in China.

Breda has an interesting pic that she entitles, 'Training My Legion.'

Nicki says that Oleg Volk, gun artist extraordaire, has made some pics of her into a t-shirt.

Traction Control gives us an update on the 2009 Gun Blogger Rendezvous at the NRA Convention in Reno.

John Lott is debating Paul Helmke on Campus Gun-Free Zones on C-Span as we speak.

Gun Owners of America issues an important update on the good work of Senators Coburn and Burr on behalf of gun rights.

An Ol' Broad's Ramblings points to an excellent op-ed on Nancy Pelosi and her...ahem...'misguided' views, to put it mildly.

Insight on Freedom blogs on another useless, empty apology issued by Congress.

Days of our Trailers points to a 'stellar' cast of supporters for the Obamessiah.

The Bobo Files comments on the Obama energy plan (keep your tires properly inflated). By the way, Obama restated today his opposition to offshore oil drilling.

Elephant Forum provides good reading on 'Barry O's' attempts of late to hide his socialist views.

Congress Agrees to Restore Gun Rights in D.C.

The NRA is reporting that it has reached a bipartisan compromise deal with Congress to restore gun rights in the District of Columbia.

In response to D.C.'s continued unwillingness to abide by the ruling of the U.S. Supreme Court in the Heller decision, Congress has proposed, among other things, that D.C. drop its cumbersome registration process, allow semi-automatic handguns, and allow residents to purchase their guns in surrounding areas of Virginia and Maryland since there are no firearms dealers in the District.

The bill, called the Second Amendment Enforcement Act, has received the support of a broad range of elected officials in both Parties, including powerful Democrats such as John Dingell.

Since Nancy Pelosi adjourned the House today even before any action was taken on the much-needed lifting of the ban on offshore oil drilling, it is assumed that the D.C. bill will be taken up by Congress when the Representatives return from their lengthy vacation.
