Second Amendment News Roundup for 9/26/08

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

From Gateway Pundit:
*The debate is on for tonight. Gateway has all the details.
*The financial crisis timeline. The truth has been revealed that the Bush Administration warned Congress 7 different times, beginning in 2001, about a growing crisis on Wall Street.
*A 'gaffe-a-day' Joe Biden has told another whopper, but the media instead focuses on Sarah Palin's nostrils--do they flinch when Katie Couric gives her a pop quiz? What a joke.

Dr. John Lott reports that Obama is threatening legal action if they run NRA ads prior to the election...and all the while he is using '527 ads' from HIS focus groups to attack McCain.

David Codrea at War on Guns posts more on this story.

Days of our Trailers has 'the video Obama doesn't want you to see.'

Mike McCarville has today's MUST-see. This is 'worth more than a thousand words.'

From the American Thinker:
*This blog blows the whistle on this unbelievable story on Katie Couric and her cohorts who show blatant disrespect to Governor Sarah Palin. This is an absolute MUST-READ!
*'Hold It! The Public Hasn't Seen Any Rescue Plan Yet!'

Alphecca has more on the story reported yesterday that Obama is going to run attack ads on McCain that slam senior adults. The ads will ridicule McCain's age and health problems...which is a subtle attack on ALL senior adults!

21 Guns Salute posts a letter he sent to elected officials opposing the bailout plan. I can't blame him nor disagree with the gist of the letter. It's not that I support 'a bailout' as it has been proposed, but I do think that doing something is necessary, even if it is simply reducing regulation and leveling the playing field for all.

Nicki has essential reading today from one of the most passionate defenders of capitalism in history. Read it!

Sebastian gives us a quick sampling of what he found politically in the Philly suburbs.

From ARRA News Service:
*The bailout plan supported by Democrats includes an earmark!
*A roundup of what's happening in Washington today--more pork!

JB's Corner posts 'About This Economic Crisis.'

Texas Fred provides some good reading today entitled, 'Barack, Sarah, and the Bible.'

From Notoriously Conservative:
*'What Caused the Economic Crisis?'--the video
*'How the Credit Crisis Started'--read it all.

Joe Huffman has a good read entitled, 'Headlines for Obama.'

Quote of the Day on the Wall Street Bailout

From Mark Krikorian at National Review:

"I have no way of judging whether the Wall Street bailout is a necessary evil or an impending disaster. But we're in this mess, ultimately, because our political elites thought it was good social policy to encourage banks to give mortgages to uncreditworthy people."
