WingNutDaily's Idiotic Article of the Day

[AFK]

Yeah, it's pretty much in the same vein as the Fairness Doctrine and the VAT.  They are ideas that may have been voiced by someone on the liberal side of things, but nobody has actually proposed any legislation that would put either into place.  So the right does this thing where they question aloud if the liberals are going to go down that road, and it automatically turns into that they ARE going down that road.

I get regular blast emails from the Obamaites and their agenda doesn't seem to include gun control atm.

[Requia ☣]

Obama at least said he was going to bring gun control back in his campaign.  But expecting a politician to keep a campaign promise is not exactly the brightest move in the book.

There's simply no support for it in the senate regardless, when the 'assault weapon' bill came up for renewal seven senators voted for it.   Where do they expect another 43 to come from?  I really do think the gun lobby is stirring up shit just so they can raise prices.

Eric Holder tried this at the beginning of Obama's term.  Both parties in congress told him to piss up a rope.

It's a non-starter.

NRA named Obama 'Gun Salesman of the Year'. heh.

The oil slick isn't really that bad.

With the 24/7 media attention that's been devoted to the ecological disaster, it is easy to regard the leak as the worst thing that's ever happened to the environment. But even now it only ranks as about the 35th worst oil spill in the past hundred years. Something else that we should not lose sight of is that the Gulf is a magnet for hurricanes, just as California is one for earthquakes and New York City is one for Islamic terrorists. That means that bad stuff is always going to be happening – and if people are going to live in such places, they have to accept the risks. British Petroleum will not always be around to pay for the cleanup.

I'm pretty sure reading this entire thread through raised my blood pressure. Or at least gave me a headache.

Never mind that British Petroleum made the mess.

[Elder Iptuous]

wait, he says they should accept the risk, referring to hurricanes, and then says that BP isn't always going to be there to pay for the cleanup?
is BP going to pay for hurricane cleanups?
wtf is he talking about?

someone that lives near him should shit on his doorstep.  if he's going to live there, he should accept that risk...
