Howard Dean, on crafting a national Democrat party platform:
“I was a governor who was endorsed every year by the National Rifle Association."
“Guns, Dean predicted, would never come up - either pro or con - in his 50-state survey of what the Democratic message should be.
“‘Guns aren't an issue,’ he said. ‘If Philadelphia wants gun control, fine. If Alabama doesn't, also fine.’"
So I guess rights aren’t unalienable. I guess the right of the people to keep and bear arms can be infringed, and the Constitution is not the “supreme law of the land.”
How about this, Howard?
“Slavery isn’t an issue,” he said. “If Philadelphia wants slavery, fine. If Alabama doesn’t, also fine.”
But in a way, you’re right, Howard. Guns aren’t an issue. It’s not about guns. It never really has been.
Stated more accurately, freedom isn’t an issue.
