Chicago has a handgun ban, in case you didn’t know. Thanks to that little fact, there have been 125 homicides over the summer, more than the KIAs in Iraq. Yep, you read that correctly. With escalating violence and a corrupt regime, maybe we should just pull out of Chicago and let the gang members take over that crappy city. The insurgents there have won. Withdraw the police now!
From Victor Davis Hanson:
Every Democratic Presidential and VP nominee of the last thirty years, with the exception of Al Gore (law school drop out), has been a lawyer—Obama (s) and Biden, Kerry and Edwards, Gore and Lieberman, Clinton (s) and Gore, Dukakis and Bentsen, and Mondale and Ferraro.
And the drooling on the left continues. That bitch Boxer opens her salivating clap trap to spew forth more bullshit than ought to be permissible from any politician.
Moonbat Extremist Babs Boxer: Saracuda Is Way Outside the Mainstream
This is rich. Senator Barbara Boxer (D-CA) has denounced Sarah Palin as “way outside” the mainstream because Saracuda believes in the sanctity of human life and is skeptical of the global warming hoax.
In contrast, Boxer’s supposedly more mainstream views include support for the ghastly form of execution known as partial birth abortion; coercive taxpayer funding of abortion; homosexual “marriage”; superior legal status for blacks, homosexuals, and transvestites; granting Social Security benefits to illegal aliens; amnesty for illegal aliens, including those who have committed felonies; providing federal funds to sanctuary cities that openly flout US immigration laws; imposing costly burdens on power companies; constitutional rights for foreign terrorists; and lawsuits blaming gun manufacturers for shootings, an attempt to use trial lawyers to preempt the Second Amendment.
