  • Liberals Panic As They Lose the Gun Narrative

    Let's hope he's right.

    When you argue for a living, you can tell how an argument is going for you. The evidence and my gut both tell me that the liberals have lost control of the gun control narrative.

    Not for lack of trying – it was almost as if they were poised to leap into action across the political, media and cultural spectrum the second the next semi-human creep shot up another “gun free zone.” This was their big opening to shift the debate and now it’s closing. They’ve lost, and they are going nuts.

    The evidence is all around that this is not going to be the moment where America begins a slide into disarmed submission through an endless series of ever-harsher “reasonable restrictions” on our fundamental rights. You just have to look past the shrieking media harpies to see what’s really happening.

    Let’s start with the most obvious omen that this tsunami has peaked. President Obama thrilled his base by grandstanding at the memorial, and then promptly washed his hands of it by handing it over to a “blue ribbon commission.” Making Joe Biden its chairman was like staking a vampire through the heart, then hosing him down with holy water before burying his body beneath the Gilroy Garlic Festival.

    Why does Obama want this gun thing buried? While intensely popular with metrosexual pundits, coastal liberals, and cultural bigots slobbering at the opportunity to stick it to those banjo –strummin’, God-believers out in the hinterlands, gun control remains poison to Red State Democrats.

    Joe Manchin of West Virginia couldn’t resist some sanctimonious posturing, but clearly he heard enough from his constituents to sprint-back his heresy with a WaPo op-ed explaining how awesome the NRA is and how groovy gun owners are. He will never take sides against the family again.

    We didn’t see the Red State Democrats up for re-election in two years out dumping on their constituents to please the media. Call it “the Fredo Effect,” and 2014 is the rowboat. We won’t hear from the likes of Senators Landrieu, Pryor and Begich until they vote “No.”

    Sure, Senator Feinstein will submit her gun ban wish list to Harry Reid, who will look at it sagely, nod politely, and let it die. He’s more Tom Hagen than Fredo. He is going to retain the NRA “A” rating his website proudly showcases regardless of what Chuck Schumer thinks. What gets you hosannas in Manhattan gets you unemployed in Searchlight.

        They fail to address the possible executive order which has been mentioned, should a bill not pass into law. This is far from being over, and let me remind you those 'red state democrats' have not had a chance to vote on any bill yet and show their true intentions.
        I don't like Republicans, but I really FUCKING hate Democrats.

          This. We have a lame-duck president and a Congress that refuses to denounce any of his EO's thus far.

            A lame duck politician is one that's been defeated in an election, and is riding out the remainder of his or her term.

              lame duck
              n.
              1.
              a. An elected officeholder or group continuing in office during the period between failure to win an election and the inauguration of a successor.
              b. An officeholder who has chosen not to run for reelection or is ineligible for reelection.

              ----

              The status can be due to

              having lost a re-election bid
              choosing not to seek another term at the expiration of the current term
              a term limit which keeps the official from running for that particular office again
              the abolishment of the office, which must nonetheless be served out until the end of the official's term.[1]

              ----

              Regardless, he doesn't have to worry about getting reelected and has 4 years to do whatever.
