Why is Obama misrepresenting his positions in radio ads?
Via the Montana Standard:
05/30/2008
Recently, Sen. Barack Obama has been running radio ads in Montana declaring that he is a friend of gun owners and sportsmen, and promising to protect our right to own guns and continue to enjoy our hunting heritage.
In 1996 Obama’s Illinois state senate campaign answered a questionnaire indicating his support for a blanket ban on the manufacture, sale, and possession of handguns in Illinois
Obama has supported bans on ammunition magazines, to require the use of gun locks on all guns, supported renewal of the 1994 Clinton gun ban
He proposed a federal law banning licensed firearm dealers from operating within five miles of any school or park, nationwide. This would effectively close down most gun shops throughout the country
In 2001, when Illinois lawmakers tried to control rampant gang violence by making gang members eligible for the death penalty when they commit murder to help their gang, Obama voted against the measure.
He opposes right-to-carry laws and supports federal legislation to ban the right to carry
His record shows that he is about as anti-gun as anyone can be. He is totally misrepresenting his position on gun ownership to the voters of Montana. I hope we all keep this in mind on Election Day.

Montanans are VERY perceptive, he lied to the wrong state.
If only Montana was like Oregon, you can get meth-heads to believe ANYTHING.
He’s a liberal Dem…what did you expect him to do?
Par for the course for this man, will say anything to win over votes!
i dont think its misrepresenting it but i think you just dont agree with him on any issues whether rite or wrong because you are a bigot
He’s not ‘lying’ in his own mind – he’s just being a typical liberal
Prior to becoming a U.S. Senator; Obama was a State Senator of Illinois and US Constitutional Scholar and Professor. He knows the 2nd Amendment in its entirety. In as much; most large metropolitan cities have a problem with the inner city usage of AK-47, and other automatic guns. He’s stance isn’t against any American tradition of hunting; unless its for human beings in gang activities. Law abiding citizens shouldn’t fear.
I am just one of Obama’s Bitter Bible and Gun Clinging Americans. I can’t possibly begin to comprehend any of his enlightened positions on guns or any of the other mysterious changes he wishes to make to an already great country.
