I'm more than a little tired of hearing the "hunters and sportsman"
line out of democrats. The purpose of the Second Amendment is to
keep Janet Reno from kicking in your door at 4:00 AM and shoving a
MP-5 submachine gun in your face.
Gore has more problems than I'm willing to discuss. Rosie has
proven herself a hypocrit.
I vote accordingly.
