Obama: "We're Not Going To Mess With" Americans' Guns

From CBS News' Maria Gavrilovic:

(DURYEA, PA.) It’s been almost 6 months since Obama suggested that people cling to guns because they are bitter, a.k.a. “bitter-gate,” but he is still plagued by questions about his position on gun control. At a town hall meeting today, a voter told Obama that there are rumors that he is going to take away guns. “People love hunting,” the man told Obama.

Obama said he is aware that the issue is being “peddled again and again,” but he assured the crowd that he will not take away guns that are legally obtained.

“I believe in the Second Amendment, and if you are a law-abiding gun owner, you have nothing to fear from an Obama administration!”

Obama said his support for gun safety measures – such as background checks- does not mean that he opposes all gun ownership.

“Now, the NRA sometimes... their general attitude is look, we don’t want anything, and if you even breathe the word ‘gun control’ or ‘gun safety,’ then you must want to take away everybody’s guns. Well, that’s just not true,” he said adding that illegal guns are his concern, not those used for sportsmanship.

He also keenly noted that even if he intended to take away guns, he would not have the power to do so as president. “I couldn’t get it done. I don’t have the votes in Congress.”

As he wrapped up his rather lengthy explanation, Obama urged the crowd to look at his policies on the economy and health care rather than gun control.

“This can’t be the reason not to vote for me,” Obama said, “Because your guns... we’re not going to mess with them... spread the word with your friends.”

N O T!   His record speaks otherwise.

His record says something else.  This is the most anti-gun candidate to ever run for president. 

Another example of Barack Hussein Obama saying something to placate the people he is talking to.

...or just put a wind turbine in front of the podium when he speaks.
Anti: I think some of you gentleman would choose to apply a gun shaped remedy to any problem or potential problem that presented itself? Your reverance (sic) for firearms is maintained with an almost religious zeal. The mind boggles! it really does...

Me: Naw, we just apply a gun-shaped remedy to those extreme life threatening situations that call for it. All the less urgent problems we're willing to discuss.

Just another thing he'll flip on IF (BIG, HUGE, MASSIVE...IF) he takes office!
Firearms stand next in importance to the Constitution itself. They are the American people's liberty teeth and keystone under independence. The very atmosphere of firearms everywhere restrains evil interference. - George Washington

Lot can happen between now and November.  To that, there is a pretty good chance that BHO can win.

Now why on earth would you think Obama has a sound understanding of the Constitution?

There is absolutely NO chance that Obama will win the election. Not because of his race, whatever that may be, White, Black, Arab, whichever. Not because of his stance on issues, or lack of. Not because he is a socialist with out any comprehension of what America stands for. And not because he has no leadership or managment experience at all, (which might be REAL handy if you are running the most powerful country in the world ). The reason Barak Husein Obama will lose the election is that Americans will not vote for a bastard.
