What good is ammo if you don't use it?

We are either appalled or we laugh when RW cretins say so many incredibly stupid things. We know that EVERY Republican votes in lockstep for the sole purpose of opposing the President. The hypocrisy is flagrant.

Yet, I have not heard so much as one word about any of that from any Democratic candidate this year. Here in Colorado, Udall's biggest attempt at winning is to brag about how he opposed Obama on the NSA. Not a word about what he or Obama have accomplished

Our congressional candidate, Irv Halter, is a retired Air Force General and he only talks about how he will oppose funding for Obamacare. (he is the Democrat). He is running against idiot, Doug Lamborn, who is the one that was encouraging the military to mutiny against Obama.
Did Halter ever even mention that? Not a chance.

So, what good is the ammo when you don't dare use it because Fox News might not like it?

Land of the free? Home of the...what?

"Praise the Lord, and pass the ammunition". It worked in WWII, and it still works today.
