Guess ole Dick is a POS after all. link to story To be fair, former VP Dick Cheney finally points out that the real proximate cause of the Tucson massacre was the insanity of the gunman, but that won�t be the takeaway for gun-control advocates. Cheney joins some critics in at least considering a size limitation on magazines for semi-automatic pistols. Jared Lee Loughner used a larger magazine of 33 rounds in the pistol, which has given rise to a call to impose limits on clips magazines for personal use: You'll get on board eventually. Some people are slower than others. Sycamore
...Actually Sycamore, you are sort of right....

Cheney is a lifelong professional politician. One of his kind was attacked in Tuscon. They stick together.
I'm better when I move.

33 rounds is a lot in one magazine. Or three magazines for that matter. How about one person can only have 3 (registered) 10 rounds mags - does that sound reasonable?
/sarc No that sounds like moderate BS they'll be back to get those three ASAP.

What he actually said sounds a lot less like an endorsement of magazine capacity limits than the talking heads from MSNBC or the writer of the article would like to believe.

I wish someone would have pointed out to him that he shot someone with a $10,000 over/under. Maybe we should ban guns that cost over $2000.

/sarc No, and as a matter of fact the poster of this drivel sounds like he's a complete azzwhole. I ask you now,..Don't " that sound reasonable?" How about you go somewhere and THINK a bit,....? Come back and try again. GTC

How about we limit high capacity politicians to ONE heart?
Cheney's an authoritarian elitist. His wife should have been VP, not him. Great Post ! GTC

/sarc Maybe it's just me, but I took /sarc to mean it was a sarcastic remark. A bit tongue-in-cheek. Perhaps facetious even. And not terribly serious.

I just emailed my two Senators and my US Congresswoman about new gun control. I said just say no to anything including an AWB or Clip ban. Hope it helps.

Missed that
There's more then adequate material for humor, ...it abounds.
This is not any particular subject to be putting on clown shows about, I doubt one could READ the OP and come away without angst.
...and quick and hostile response GOES with that territory.
No harm, no foul,.....apologies extended ,...where apropo.

Dunno WHY you'd delete anything,.....
That was NOT funny.
Maybe an "Attempt",....that failed.
AZZ around about "Funny Stuff",.......
I'd leave my posts, and AM.

Why would anyone care what Dick Cheney's opinion is on handgun magazine capacity?
I don't............

Well, I'm still a huge Cheney fan.....greatest VP the country has ever had. Would have made a terrific president.
Unknot your panties. He's entitled to his opinion on weapons. If some of y'all would admit it most citizens wouldn't be worth a rats azz with a Poncho Villa bullet belt, in fact they'd be more dangerous.

No offense taken, or meant.....Cheney has changed his mind about gays, too. A gay daughter will do that. That doesn't make him a POS either.

Almost sounds like y'all thought he was on your "side".
He's not. He's on his side. He's the State. You're not.
But keep on believing that there are actually 2 parties. That's what Dick would want you to do.

It doesn't matter what citizens are worth a rat's asss with or what they ain't. Cheney was supposed to be one of us and now he's showing he's not. The question is, are you? I have always thought you to be more of a party hack and apologist than true conservative, but at times you have surprised me. [bleep] Cheney and his opinion. Just another [bleep] RINO in the end. If we want to keep our guns and the ability to use them, we'd better all hang together and not let assclowns like Dick tell us that it's okay as long as they don't take our $10000 shotguns away.
