The Slavery is Freedom Act - Sam McDonald writes in Reason Magazine that the Democrats have at least learned one important lesson from John Aschcroft; are you pushing legislation that is sure to assault civil liberties? Give it a warm, fuzzy name.
Thus, Ted Kennedy's latest whack at controlling the law-abiding American's access to firearms is:
...titled "Gun Sale Anti-Fraud and Privacy Protection." It bears a striking resemblance to the "Gun-Sale Anti-Fraud and Privacy Protection Act" the senators proposed in July. Both bills propose to protect Americans’ privacy by making sure the federal government keeps track of how many guns they buy
Perhaps it's time for the "Americans United and Happy, putting Ted Kennedy in a UPS Box bound for Tadjikistan while Uniting Around the Flag" act to be introduced.
