“Those on the far-left always fail to define what an assault rifle is considered under the law. Likewise, the term assault weapons is used as a blanket term by the extreme anti-gun crowd for propaganda purposes.
The AWB is almost entirely cosmetic and save for the difference in rounds per magazine, is a meaningless ban. A ban on assault weapons does not equal a ban on automatic weapons. They are not the same thing.
Banning a semi-automatic rifle because it has some of the features Jesh66 listed above is a meaningless venture and does nothing to stop gun violence. Said semi-automatic rifle still fires semi-automatically despite the lack of a folding stock, a muzzle break, or a bayonet lug.
Please stop mindlessly throwing around the terms assault rifles and assault weapons as if they actually meant something.
Signed,

Obama is losing every key demographic he HAS to do well with to beat Mack...as so many have said, Obama should NOT be within the margin of error in so many states and in the national poll...he should be whipping Mack's tail across the board...this is the meme we heard from so many Obamabots during the primaries that he would trounce Mack...clearly that is NOT happening...voters aren't buying Obama's lines, and his Euro Tour did little to boost his numbers, in fact they have had the opposite effect...Obama's recent outburst of anger about Mack questioning his patriotism was an unbecoming, especially saying Mack didn't know who he was dealing with...that's desperation...pure and simple.”

“Actually, the country would have to pay their bills with something besides money all of us put into Social Security every month. All this cry baby stuff about Social Security, but get the facts. Huge amounts of Social Security funds have been Bushwhacked by ahhh, Bush to pay for his disgusting killing field in Iraq. The problem is not the Social Security system, it is the thievery of this administration, a giant sucking sound taking huge dollars away from the SS account to pay for everything but Social Security. Can someone, anyone in fact, please discuss the thievery of the feds from Social Security without paying going rates for savings accounts in interest. So Bushies, shut your mouths.”

“This article is a big, resounding, DUH.
To paraphrase Keith Olbermann, A government's overwhelming support cannot be completely diminished by its critics, it can only be squandered by that same government.
I've known for years that Bush does not care about the troops. He does not care about the 2,974 people that died with the collapse of the towers. Bush does not care that he ignited a conflagration in the middle east. Bush does not care about the citizens of this country. Bush does not care about anyone but Bush. End of story.
To suggest otherwise is, I think, a lie.”
