Romney: Obama mandated contraception so he might take your guns too

http://www.rawstory.com/rs/2012/03/01/romney-obama-mandated-contraception-so-he-might-take-your-guns-too

I don't know about you folk, but I'm sick and tired of being treated like a gullible, paranoid simpleton by these right-wing fear-mongers. They don't seem to have any respect at all for the average gun owner's level of intelligence. They were spewing this same crappola back in 2008, and SURPRISE - Obama hasn't taken any of our guns. Not a one.

what does contraception have to do with guns? Didn't he claim that he signed MA's "AWB" because the "gun lobby wanted it"?

If they wanted to have a debate about guns they should nominate Santorum because Romney is the wrong messenger for that.

Are you saying that if Santorum had said this you would have found it more credible? You're not, are you?

who was gouging $60 for a box of .380s and the ammo companies.
IIRC, there were other reasons for the ammo shortages.
