Now we'll see how Rand Paul does against Obama's other drones: the main stream media.

Ideology is more important than jobs...and rights

Actions Speak Volumes

Local media outlets report that three senators and three Assembly members met with Remington officials on Wednesday to discuss what they could do to ensure the company keeps its plant in the Herkimer County village of Ilion, where Remington employs about 1,200 people.

The answer should have been repeal the SAFE ACT. Instead, Remington is investing twenty million in their Ilion plant. Remington has no comment. Is there really any need. Actions speak volumes.

The White House calligrapher...

...makes $96,000 a year. There are apparently three of them. Their jobs are sequester proof. So what do they do in their downtime? Maybe they can lead schoolkids on tours of the "people's house". Just saying?

Mouth says one thing. Vote says another.

Grassley said everyone wants to prevent more killings like the deaths of 20 first-graders and six staffers at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Conn. But he said gun control does not work and accused Democrats of wanting to "impose more gun restrictions on law-abiding citizens."

...and yet you voted with Leahy. Your actions show your true loyalty. There is no gun control at any level that does not restrict law abiding citizens.

Firearms don't accidentally fire themselves.

People negligently pull the trigger. Unintentional does not equal accidental.

NRA sponsoring NASCAR

NRA to be title sponsor for NASCAR Cup race in Texas

Straight forward story that amounts to NRA members are in large part the same people who like NASCAR. What's missing is the almost obligatory quote from Ladd Everitte or some other prohibitionist to show balance. Nice change of pace.

Iowa man shoots off finger while cleaning gun

Steven Johnson says he inserted a magazine into the gun Sunday night and racked the slide. The 22-year-old says he did not realize the gun was loaded when he pulled the trigger to make sure it worked.

If you insert a loaded magazine into your pistol and rack the slide, what else would it be but loaded. Oh? you didn't realize the magazine was loaded? You're lucky the only thing you shot was your finger tip.

Yep.
