DesertBull Report post Posted November 26, 2008 The thing is, if he is successful in turning around the economy, he will be even more empowered by public opinion to push his social agenda through. Just the other day his Whitehouse Chief of Staff said, "We cannot waste this crises. We have to get things through congress now that we would not be able to get passed in normal circumstances." Those are scarey words. His new AG is also VERY anti-gun. His stance is that the 2nd only applies to the military. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
coues krazy Report post Posted November 26, 2008 Redman, I agree that somethings need to change. But I am honestly scared to death of what Obama and his adminisration may do to our 2nd amendment rights. I just dont trust the man. Hopefully we get through the next four years without more damage than can be fixed. Time will tell.... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ghost hunter Report post Posted November 27, 2008 Using this crisis to promote their agenda is what I'm afraid of. Get a big bailout bill going through Congress and attach "a couple of amendments to it" and wham!!! gun control, ammo tax, etc. Only one who will be yelling foul will be the NRA because a big majority of Americans are REALLY short sighted. I heard a term the other day that seemed to sum up our economic mess, "economic affirmative action". Sound like "spread the wealth"? Did to me too, but with a more ominous tone.
