Obama/Biden Campaign Squelching Inconvenient Political Speech.
Basically, this is double-talk by the Obama Campaign. The Kennedy Amendment would have re-defined "armor piercing" ammunition to include most commonly used hunting rounds. The same is true of the proposed expansions to the assault weapons bans. Sure, Obama isn't talking about an ammo tax now (clings to guns), but he certainly was before.
Nice to see that he's continuing his track record of protecting individual liberties.
Seriously, I can't believe they have stooped SO LOW as to threaten legal action against media outlets for political advertising. I think MoveOn.org would have reported it if the Republicans had sued them, so this looks to me like a brand-new tactic in the liberal playbook.
