This is just nothing more than fear mongering at its worst.

If you think that the bumpersticker on the car had anything to do with what happened then Obama is certainly a "Muslin" They would have done the same thing bumpersticker or not.

All of the them versus us rhetoric is really ignorant. I have several guns and I am voting Democrat this year. I am not a Republican, I am not a Democrat, I am an American. Go ahead keep voting for the Republicans, you see where it has gotten you so far. It will only continue. It is the same old struggle that has been going on for centuries.

Oh and under Obamma, my taxes are definitely going UP, for the rest of the 99% out there don't worry things will get better in spite of you. If this go round is not enough, well then another 4-8 years ought to certainly do it for you.

I pay a big premium to live in a gated community with video surveillance and security guards, but you know what! I'd really rather NOT.

This is childlike thinking. Like when kids think that Dogs and Cats always hate each other (unless of course they have a dog and a cat as pets)

The die hard republican really created their own mess. If you all really wanted a theocracy you should have started a long time ago. This country is a Democracy and as such the votes count (most of the time) Your all simply out numbered now. I guess all of the Die hards could move to Alaska and merge the cessation party with the republican party and all live in theocratic bliss. You could call it the Republic of Alaska.

Freedom of speech has nothing to do with it. This is a private forum owned by an individual and as such is not subject to the first amendment. The forum has rules and we all do our best to abide by them. The rule against personal attacks is one of them.

I am certain a moderator will be along shortly....

I would take this as not only a personal attack at any one person but a personal attack and several people of the forum.

This country is not, actually, a Democracy. In a true democracy 51% of people could theoretically enslave 49%.

We live in a Constitutional Republic wherein the government is supposed to respect and not infringe upon the inherent rights of man, some of which are enumerated in the Constitution for particular emphasis.

I don't see Obama doing much except touting class warfare and socialist ideas - populist demagoguery engineered with the intent to harness the outrage generated by the excesses of the current administration (excesses supported, by the way, with the assent of the Democrat-controlled legislature!They didn't put up much of a fight.) I don't see a whole lot of discussion of individual rights, or a voting record that supports it either.

Or to put it another way - the "hope and change" rhetoric is a stone-simple psy op designed to get you to leap from the current frying pan into the fire, using "childlike thinking." You're welcome to jump if you'd like. I'll be out here in the non-gated community... where the folks I've come to know and love are too.

I respectfully - agree - with you. My responding as I have was simply because as one who loves his country I was personally disturbed and offended to see this kind of talk on a forum like this. I joined the forum for information not political fear mongering. As an American I find it truly disturbing.

Also I should say that I respect an individuals opinions and their expression of them. Even if they offend me.

I have never hear this but after looking at it I like it.

As for Obama, he is certainly half full of it like the rest of the Politicians. If he goes too far left of center then we have term limits and I will certainly vote Republican again if I feel I need to.

I like to look at voting like hiring. You have to find the right person for the job, right now Obamma is the better man for the Job right now. If Nukes had flown lately or the 2nd 911 had come and gone then he might not be the fighter we would need. It is all about keeping balance and the whole reason we have close elections is because when it comes down to it the far left and the far right are not the majority. That is occupied by the middle. So I guess my true political party is "Swing Voter" :)

Sir,

At this point, I think you would do well to ask any CHL related questions you may have so we can provide you with the "information" you seek. Continued attempts to share your political views with us does nothing to achieve your proposed objective.

So, please ask your sincere questions, we will happy to help in any way we can. If you continue to make your first posts politically oriented, then don't be surprised when someone comes out with a little "troll spray".

Respectfully, Flint.

No CHL questions so far. Molto interresante.

If I were feeling particularly cynical... I'd say that someone who showed up the day before the election with a clear Obama bias and who isn't particularly interested in CHL had... an agenda of some sort.

But I'll save the cynicism and say that this could be a good opportunity for someone to learn about the correct operation of a constitutional republic. :coolgleamA:

Speaking to the original topic - I don't put political stickers on my car. Tactically it seems like all it gets you is antagonism (people who agree with you will just leave you alone... people who disagree strongly enough could create problems of varying degrees) and besides... I prefer a cleaner look to my vehicles.

Finally... isn't it a sick state of affairs when we have to work so hard to convince people that the Constitution actually means what is flippin' says??? How hard is that? :rules:

Don't feed the trolls!

I just can't resist, though. I've said it before and I'll say it again here: a gun owner voting for Osama - I mean Obama - is like a chicken voting for Colonel Sanders.
