What this country needs is a chicken in every pot, a car in every garage, and an AK in every backseat.
Or so says the GOP … House Republicans are making sure the current ban on AK-47s and eighteen other types of semiautomatic weapons expires next year. And the president doesn’t object.
Money quote from the Post …
Congressional Republicans said Congress will renew the ban only if Bush publicly and firmly insists. “If the president demands we pass it, that would change the dynamics considerably,” said a House GOP leadership aide. “The White House does not want us” to vote.
At a certain point you wonder whether the GOP will have to start executing family pets before the Dems find something they can mobilize on.
