Obama Doesn’t Really Believe in The Second Amendment

Barack Obama is your typically liberal. He says one thing that you think sounds good, but if you listen long enough you find out that what he says comes with all sorts of strings attached. Take, for example, his claim that he supports the second Amendment. Then however Obama turns around and says that his support comes with certain qualifications … such as not liking concealed carry. He also does what liberals often do and claim that there should be “common sense” restrictions.

Robert Novak has a column on this very topic:

Barack Obama, who informs campaign audiences that he taught constitutional law for 10 years, might be expected to weigh in on the historic Second Amendment case before the U.S. Supreme Court. The justices are pondering whether the 1976 District of Columbia law effectively prohibiting personal gun ownership in the nation’s capital is constitutional. But Sen. Obama has not stated his position.

Obama, disagreeing with the D.C. government and gun control advocates, declares the Second Amendment’s “right of the people to keep and bear arms” applies to individuals, not just the “well-regulated militia” cited in the amendment. In the next breath, he asserts this constitutional guarantee does not preclude local “common sense” restrictions on firearms. Does the Draconian prohibition for Washington, D.C., fit that description? My attempts to get an answer have proved unavailing. The front-running Democratic presidential candidate is doing the gun dance.

Yes, once again another liberal trying to make you believe that “shall not be infringed” really means “shall not be infringed unless we, who are smarter than you, think that it should be infringed”.

Obama isn’t half as smart as he and his apostles think he is. But people will still vote for him in droves of ignorant masses.
