Obama Unveiled

Supposedly we're going to find out what that "under the radar" gun control is all about. [Read]

I'm sorry, whenever I hear the word "stakeholder" I automatically think of Abraham van Helsing.

Pretty good instincts, huh?

43

No, not the Ultimate Answer to the Ultimate Question of Life, The Universe, and Everything--that was "42."

43 is the number of additional walked guns turned up in a Phoenix traffic stop and reported by ABC15's Lori Jane Gliha.

How Would You Like a Nice Hawaiian Punch?

No thanks.

That's why it's fair to shoot someone who insists on duking it out when you don't want to.

CUM ULLA SELLA, 'n all that.

I Want this T-Shirt

Thanks for the idea, Sean D Sorrentino!

BREAKING NEWS: HELL FREEZES OVER!

That's the key to this mess -- and the reason that Operation Fast and Furious might turn out to be the biggest Washington scandal since Iran-Contra.

As Issa and Grassley note in their letter, had the other agencies shared information -- theoretically the goal of the post-9/11 revamp of the intelligence and law-enforcement agencies -- "then ATF might have known that gun trafficking 'higher-ups' had already been identified."

So if the identities of the Mexican criminals were known to the feds, what was the point of Project Gunrunner -- and why is Holder so desperately trying to stonewall by withholding hundreds of documents from Congress?

Law-abiding gun owners and dealers think they already know. With the Obama administration wedded to the fiction that 90 percent of the guns Mexican cartels use originate here -- they don't -- many suspect that "Fast and Furious" was a backdoor attempt to smear domestic gun aficionados as part of its stealth efforts on gun control by executive fiat.

The New York Post publishes a kick-ass Gunwalker column that doesn't call for more citizen disarmament and power for government.

Gungrabbers can count on Authorized Journalists to help with their deception

“Semi-automatic machine gun”? [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner commentary looks at some water-bearers--whether they do it out of ignorance or laziness is beside the point--they do it.

And their reach is a lot longer than ours.  Which is why I continually harp on regular readers to share the link.

This Day in History: July 7

The Commander-in-Chief approves the sentence and releases him from his arrest. Elijah Rippee, soldier in Col. Spencer's Regiment, charged with desertion, was tried by the same Court and being found guilty was sentenced to one hundred lashes on his bare back. The General approves the sentence, but pursuant to the recommendation and request of the Court Martial his punishment, is remitted and he is ordered to join his regiment. [More]

Join us at 7:00 am Pacific/10:00 am Eastern on NBC 1260 AM/96.1 FM, Scottsdale, or click "Listen Live."

Archives are here.  It looks like they're going to post by the week and replace the show at each day's link the evening of the broadcast date.

Spread the word on this, OK? Nobody else is doing a daily exclusive gun rights broadcast in a major market during morning drive time, and if this works, it could not only create an opportunity to spread to other markets, but also open doors for efforts by others.  We complain our voice is not heard in the media--here we've got a foot in the door at an NBC affiliate station to promote a full-blown no compromise message.  Just a few short months ago I certainly would never have predicted I'd see that happen--or that I'd be a  part of it.

Lineup subject to change without notice.
