Clearly Obama is wasting no time promoting his gun grabbing agenda. The White House website already lists some of his plans:
“They support closing the gun show loophole and making guns in this country childproof. They also support making the expired federal Assault Weapons Ban permanent. “
Eric Holder, Obama’s pick to run the Justice Department is nothing short of a nightmare for gun owners.
Holder has made a career out of attacking gun owners’ rights and believes you have no individual right to own a gun. Now is the time to let Jeff Merkley, your new US Senator. know that you oppose Holder’s nomination and will consider any vote to confirm him an open assault on your rights. There is not much time. Please contact Merkley now. Contact information and a sample e-mail follow.

Dear Senator Merkley,
Eric Holder has made no secret of his animosity towards gun owners and the Second Amendment. His behavior during the Clinton administration demonstrates that his judgment is guided by politics not principles. A vote to confirm Holder is a vote against the rights of gun owners in your state. I urge you in the strongest possible terms to say “NO” to Eric Holder.
Very truly yours,
