CCRKBA ASKS DEMOCRATS: ‘HAS PARTY’S ANTI-GUN MASK COME OFF?’
BELLEVUE, WA – The Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms today called on Democrats to “be honest” with America’s 90 million gun owners and “tell us whether your campaign claims of adherence to the Second Amendment were all lies.”
CCRKBA Chairman Alan Gottlieb said gun owners are legitimately alarmed that president-elect Barack Obama has selected virulent anti-gun-rights Democrat Rahm Emanuel as his White House chief of staff. Emanuel was “point man” on gun ban efforts for the Clinton Administration.
“Scores of Democrats, including Senator Obama and his running mate, Joe Biden, assured voters over the past several months that they ‘support’ the Second Amendment,” Gottlieb stated. “Well, America’s gun owners do not merely ‘support’ the Second Amendment, we live by it every day. We value the right to keep and bear arms, and will zealously protect and defend that right, as much as we value the rest of our fundamental individual civil rights, and that is something Democrats need to understand. To think otherwise is a monumental mistake.
“Mr. Obama, whose history on gun rights is abysmal, appears to be considering his party’s most extremist gun control advocates for key positions in his administration,” Gottlieb continued. “That is not a sign of goodwill toward gun owners or their rights. It’s a red flare warning of high winds and rough weather looming on the political horizon.
“Our nation is in serious trouble,” he observed, “and we all need to be working together to solve our fiscal crisis and our energy problems. The fastest way to alienate tens of millions of productive, loyal and hard-working American citizens is to attack one of their constitutionally-protected civil rights.
“We wish our new president smooth sailing in his new ship of state, because we are all along for the ride,” Gottlieb said. “But we caution his crew that the eyes of every American gun owner are on you. Democrats have an opportunity and an obligation to prove they mean what they have been saying about protecting the Second Amendment, or to demonstrate to the nation that they truly are the party of extremist gun control.”

The left-wing illuminati are led by inexperience, so naturally, they don't know much about the rights of others, or at least it looks that way.
There are going to be a lot of masks slipping off Hussein in the days to come.
