So, Pigs are flying and the Devil is building a Snowman...
Gun Rights groups are beginning to work with the ACLU against Bush because of search and seizure and privacy issues relating to the patriot act.

OK it's getting tooo weird. :crazy:

2. If it's about a civil liberty, the ACLU will defend it.

It's nice to see groups that may appear to have opposing views find common ground. I respect those ACLU guys.

:evilgrin:

7. That's what gets me about repugs' always condemning the ALCU
They don't realize that the ALCU is not about promoting a left-wing agenda, but about promoting civil liberties. Hell, if anything, they're a Libertarian group.

3. But remember, Bush still has 50% overall approval!
Who do they think they're kidding?

5. Just the other day I heard
that Kerry now has 50%, and Bush has something like 43%.

Encouraging, non?

Just wait til Shrubbenfuhrer pre-empts American Idol. The brainless ones will begin to turn against him in droves.

4. Maybe that's a good thing.
The whole gun issue is about the right or freedom to bear arms or at least own them. If gun owners are losing other rights besides their second ammendment rights, then the scales are beginning to fall from their eyes. Maybe they will start seeing their beloved BushCo for the corporate facists that they are.

6. We can only hope....
Hunters and fishers are mad at Shrubby about environmental issues as well. They're starting to notice that the homes of their prey have been leased to Halliburton, who are putting up parking lots.

"Wattaminnit! Who put a cement factory in my fishin' hole!"
