    I heard this on FOX news this morning myself.
    I'm glad the Real news is coming out.
    Lets keep drumming for the truth from ALL selected politicians.
    They spew out statistics that can't be backed up with facts,
    They spend our money with no regard to us taxpayers,
    They enact rules without listening to those of us they claim to represent.
    There is alot of finger pointing going on. All should be removed.
    Over 9000 earmarks in the last stimulus and the Republicans
    accounted for 4000+ of these. Give Me a break. Who in Washington is on OUR side?
    I was taught you're either part of the problem or part of the solution. No Grey.....
    We have to rise up and voice together loudly.
    Get your family, friends and neighbors to speak up and voice like never before.
    We can be heard! We will be heard.

    Good article, all except the last line.

    "Let's do what we can with what we know," he said. "We know that one hell of a lot of firearms come from the United States because our gun market is wide open."

    WTH does that mean? Our gun market is NOT wide open. There are many many laws in place that regulate the market very tightly.

    That particular quote was from an anti gunner from the brady bunch or something.

    I think the United States has made one mistake in all of its dealings with Mexico. I think we should have taken the whole thing in 1848, and by now we would have at least straightened it out to the level that California is at right now.

    Perhaps we should have taken all of North America south of the Rio Grande.
    It would likely have been better in the long run, and our label as imperialists would have better earned.

    How about we throw out NAFTA, and put a complete embargo on Mexico for Ten years regarding everything going in both directions and see if that helps.

    I'm not jumping your post but $50.00 bucks gets you an AK.
    Thats a fully auto. No serial # or stampings indicating Country of Origin.

    Not legal but neither are the illegal immigrants; and no one that can
    do anything seems too concerned about that either.

    Again, the law abiding citizens are in the corral.
