Irony

On the same day as the Asault weapons ban is lifted a new report comes out that demonstrates that in spite of a Bush economy the ban has worked. Violent crimes are down in our counntry to the lowest levels since such figures were recorded beginning in 1973 (as reported by MSNBC).

Polls show overwhelmingly that the vast majority of people across our nation want this ban to remain in effect. But yet our Republican leadership will do nothing about it as they try to court every possible NRA and other vote.
