2. Gotta flog his signing and SUPPORTING an assault weapons ban in MA.

Most of the membership of the NRA know exactly what his fake veneer is all about.

Been a long time since a gun control policy position worked to support a Democrat, eh?
Everything's coming up roses, just have to keep on the message. Obama is going to beat Romney by a wider spread than he did with McCain.

For that, you need a team of lawyers, pens, computers and a complicit Congress, to make it all legal.

6. The Nat'l Asso. for Gun Rights....

...has released a photo of Mitt Romney standing with Ted Kennedy blasting Romney for supporting "anti-gun legislation" while governor of Massachusetts.

I don't understand the NRA.....Obama has done absolutely NOTHING to infringe upon the right to gun ownership, he hasn't pushed for ANY new gun control legislation even after the tragic shootings at Virginia Tech (before his presidency began) and the assassination attempt on Rep. Gabrielle Giffrods in Arizona. These guys are absolutely paranoid and frankly, I don't think the NRA is simply a pro-gun organization anymore....they are now more of a pro-conservative agenda organization (probably because most of their membership is now composed of right-wing fanatics and tea-baggers).

I'm surprised. Is a shitball gun a modified AK-47? SG-47? As in a "sewer gun." That would be something if the shitball gun is his claim to gunnuttery.

Jon Stewart had a good one on that commercial.

19. Rodents and rabbits ...

... in 2007, Romney explained during an interview exactly what kind of hunting he likes.

"I'm not a big game hunter. I've always been, if you will, a rodent and rabbit hunter all right, small varmints if you will," Romney said.

They said on the news earlier today that Romney probably said the above statement because a person doesn't need a gun permit to hunt those and that would cover his butt if anyone went looking for a Romney hunting license and couldn't find one.

tasked with "guard duty," dozing on a bench, their chins propped up on the barrels of their weapons, just so.

27. Kinda like "cowboy" Dubya Bush riding horseback.

He was supposedly terrified of horses. What kind of cowboy is that? Romney's talking the talk, but a guy that wears a tie with his jeans just can't carry certain things off. Expecially if they ask him to hold and aim a hunting rifle. Better hope it's not loaded. He'd probably be looking through the barrel.
