Exposed: The lie behind Obama's gun ban campaign

12:10am Friday, April 10, 2009
By Tim Inwood During the Presidential campaign, Senator Barack Obama told gun owners we had nothing to fear from him. Most of us did not believe him. Now that he is President, his actions have shown we were right to doubt him. Since February, the true intent of the Obama administration has become very clear. They intend to ban self-loading firearms and high capacity magazines. Within a month of...

As Americans get to know the man they elected, guns & ammo grow scarce

12:10am Thursday, April 09, 2009
By Chad D. Baus When Governor Ted Strickland (then a Congressman) took John Kerry goose hunting during the 2004 Presidential campaign, we recognized it for what it was - an obligatory photo op by a popular pro-gun Democrat to help a fellow anti-gun Democrat look less dangerous. It didn't work because, well, we all remember Obama's "lipstick on a pig" reference about Alaska Governor Sarah Palin,...

Barack Obama's misguided and mistaken gun policies

12:05am Thursday, April 02, 2009
By Gerard Valentino Barack Obama's recent video message to Iran is widely seen as an attempt to create a dialogue between the two countries. Meanwhile, on the domestic front, he has all but shut down one of the most successful law enforcement programs in the country by putting up insurmountable administrative roadblocks to allowing Federal Flight Deck Officers from continuing to carry guns in...

Republicans continue to serve wrong recipe when it comes to gun rights

12:10am Wednesday, April 01, 2009
By Jeff Knox The Republican Party lost big in 2006 and lost even bigger in 2008. They didn't lose because of opposition to the war in Iraq. They didn't lose because of the floundering economy.
