Misleading Headline of the Day

Filed under:   by Xrlq @ 6:19 pm

Via Drudge, who offers an equally misleading headline, the Ass. Press announces that:

Obama Supports Individual Gun Rights

RTWT, and tell me how that squares with the last two paragraphs of the article:

At his news conference, he voiced support for the District of Columbia’s ban on handguns, which is scheduled to be heard by the Supreme Court next month.

“The notion that somehow local jurisdictions can’t initiate gun safety laws to deal with gang bangers and random shootings on the street isn’t born [sic] out by our Constitution,” Obama said.

O-kay.

UPDATE: Jan Crawford Greenburg takes a more charitable view of Obama’s statements. Patterico and Uncle, not so much.

McCain for President

He wasn’t my first, second or even third choice, but dammit, he’s the best we can hope for now. For a retarded voter guide suggesting otherwise, go here.
