It
should come as no surprise that the NRA should come out and support a
Conservative candidate for a U.S. Senate seat. After all, George Allen
is one of our nation's strongest supporters of the 2nd Amendment. Here
is a list of Senator Allen's positions on 2nd Amendment issues:
- He
Earned an A + rating and endorsement by NRA-PVF for his perfect voting
record, and is a tireless supporter of and leader on our Second
Amendment rights and hunting heritage.
- He cosponsored
and voted for the Protection of Lawful Commerce in Arms Act, stopping
bogus gun industry lawsuits trying to bankrupt firearms manufacturers
and dealers by holding them responsible for the acts of criminals.
- He
is a sponsor of the National Right to Carry Reciprocity bill, whereby
each state will recognize CCW permits just as they recognize each
others drivers licenses.
- He cosponsored the Disaster
Recovery Personal Protection Act and voted to prohibit gun confiscation
during states of emergency as happened after Hurricane Katrina
- He
is a cosponsor of the District of Columbia Personal Protection Act,
which would repeal the gun ban for law-abiding D.C. residents and
restore their right of self defense.

But
what is surprising is that his opponent, Jim Webb, is not speaking out
on 2nd Amendment issues. Jim Webb is also pro-gun but must take his
cues from the DNC which is rabidly for gun control. It is kind of
ironic that Jim Webb accuses George Allen of agreeing with President
Bush 96% of the time as if it were a bad thing, and yet Webb himself is
allowing the DNC to use him as a puppet.
Exactly
how many issues does Jim Webb disagree with the DNC on and exactly what
are those issues? If Webb really wants to paint himself as an
independent, he must come forward with that information before November
7th. Until then, Senator Allen has my vote simply for the fact that I
know exactly where he stands on the issues. I have no clue what Jim
Webb really stands for.

Here
is a sickening story coming out of Austrailia. The alleged Religion of
Peace is making some more preposterous claims about Muslims and sex
crimes. Austrailia's most senior Muslim cleric has declared that women
who dress "immodestly" are the ones responsible for sexual attacks, not
the uncontrolled and undisciplined men who do the attacking.
From The Austrailian:
| The
nation's most senior Muslim cleric has blamed immodestly dressed women
who don't wear Islamic headdress for being preyed on by men and likened
them to abandoned "meat" that attracts voracious animals. In
a Ramadan sermon that has outraged Muslim women leaders, Sydney-based
Sheik Taj Din al-Hilali also alluded to the infamous Sydney gang rapes,
suggesting the attackers were not entirely to blame. While
not specifically referring to the rapes, brutal attacks on four women
for which a group of young Lebanese men received long jail sentences,
Sheik Hilali said there were women who "sway suggestively" and wore
make-up and immodest dress ... "and then you get a judge without mercy
(rahma) and gives you 65 years". ... In
the religious address on adultery to about 500 worshippers in Sydney
last month, Sheik Hilali said: "If you take out uncovered meat and
place it outside on the street, or in the garden or in the park, or in
the backyard without a cover, and the cats come and eat it ... whose
fault is it, the cats or the uncovered meat? "The uncovered meat is the problem." The sheik then said: "If she was in her room, in her home, in her hijab, no problem would have occurred." He said women were "weapons" used by "Satan" to control men.

And
there you have it. One of the biggest reasons why we must win the war
against Islamofascism: to prevent the Islamic subjugation of women.
Where
is CAIR on this issue? Where is NOW on this issue? Where are the Dems
on this issue? Why are they all so shamefully silent?
Because
to speak out against the likes of Sheik Taj Din al-Hilali would mean
giving legitimacy to the Bush Administration. The Dems would rather
regain power than to actually do something to prevent a forceful
submission of women to Islamics.
Another reason for us core Conservatives to get out and vote on November 7.

And
Ann Coulter entertains us with her most recent column in which she
looks into the contradictory world of Democrat war support. From her
column:
| In
fact, during the brief five weeks it took American forces to take Kabul
and send the Taliban scurrying, liberals were not the flag-waving
patriots they would have us believe. In
October 2001, Sen. Joe Biden gave a speech before the Council on
Foreign Relations saying that America's air war in Afghanistan made the
United States look like "this high-tech bully that thinks from the air
we can do whatever we want to do." Four
weeks before U.S. troops completely vanquished the Taliban, Kim Jong
Il's pal, New Mexico Gov. Bill Richardson, said on CNN's "Capital Gang"
that the Taliban would not soon be toppled. He cited his experience
with the Taliban, saying: "I think they can hold on for a while. They
were very resilient." Howard Dean joined Michael Moore in arguing that Osama bin Laden was innocent until proved guilty. |
It
wasn't (and still isn't) just elected politicians who are wavering and
vacillating in the face of factual reality. She goes on to say:
| Democrats
who would not have to face voters -- we call them "reporters" -- were
calling Afghanistan a "quagmire" approximately six minutes after we
invaded. Thomas
Ricks, the Washington Post reporter who currently has a book out saying
the war in Iraq is not succeeding, also said the war in Afghanistan was
not succeeding. On
Oct. 27, 2001, Ricks said this about Afghanistan -- not Iraq: "Although
there is little evidence -- yet -- that the U.S. approach is
succeeding, officials at the Pentagon and the White House said
yesterday that they are sticking with their original strategy." Our boys had taken Kabul before Ricks' article hit the recycling bin. |
And her parting shot:
| The
first time liberals had a kind word for the war in Afghanistan was when
they needed to pretend to support some war in order to attack the war
in Iraq with greater vigor. To get them to support the Iraq war, all we
have to do is attack Iran. |
Yep.
