Recall on Saturday I commented on the Bush Administrations brief to the Supreme Court concerning the Appeals Court’s decision to declare Washington, D.C.’s gun ban unconstitutional. That brief, in my opinion, confirmed that this administration is pro gun control and wishes to restrict people of their right to “keep and bear arms” and to maintain power and control over the people in so doing.

Today, Robert VerBruggen in the American Spectator, comments on the Bush Administration’s statements.

With the ruling in mind, this Bush administration gem has to be one of the dumbest statements ever to make it into an official government statement:

“The court’s decision could be read to hold that the Second Amendment categorically precludes any ban on a category of ‘Arms’ that can be traced back to the Founding era. If adopted by this Court, such an analysis could cast doubt on the constitutionality of existing federal legislation prohibiting the possession of certain firearms, including machineguns.”

Make sure you read the entire article.
