NRA official: Obama wants to outlaw guns in 2nd term

A top official with the National Rifle Association said Friday that President Obama will move to "destroy" gun rights and "erase" the Second Amendment if he is re-elected in November.

While delivering one of the liveliest and best-received speeches at the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, NRA Executive Vice President Wayne LaPierre said the president's low-key approach to gun rights during his first term was "a "conspiracy to ensure re-election by lulling gun owners to sleep."

"All that first term, lip service to gun owners is just part of a massive Obama conspiracy to deceive voters and hide his true intentions to destroy the Second Amendment during his second term," he said.

"We see the president's strategy crystal clear: Get re-elected and, with no more elections to worry about, get busy dismantling and destroying our firearms' freedom, erase the Second Amendment from the Bill of Rights and excise it from the U.S. Constitution."

I don't trust Obama not to go after gun rights, BUT if he does get elected, hopefully the Democratic party will be begging him not to assault the 2A because of the fallout that will occur in the next election.  As I understand it, the Democratic party was sorry that the Clinton's instigated the AWB because they believed it hurt them in the following election.

I'm not saying I will sit back and trust that this will happen, but I've got a feeling we will have another 4 years of Obama.  If so, I'm hoping my theory is correct.

Given the chance Obama WILL put more Sotomayors and Kagans on the USSC.   Truly insidious and ignorant people.

That is true.  One of the most lasting things a president can do is affect the makeup of the federal courts.
