Americans are buying guns and ammunition at record levels. The reasons seem easy to determine. President Obama promises to be the most Second Amendment hostile president of all-time. Obama has a full democratic Congress and they may pass the most extreme gun control ever seen.
Any new gun control acts may likely cause Waco and Ruby Ridge-style standoffs, and many may die.
Some of the reasons for ammo shortages in no order of importance:
Fear of Obama’s gun control
Possible Economic Collapse
Terrorism
Civil War
Crime
Riots (Post Obama Assassination)
Food Shortages
Suspension of Police Services (2004 Blackout, etc.)
Standard Paranoia

John McCain is rapidly making his temperament an inescapable issue in the presidential campaign. Does the nation really want so much drama in the White House? McCain’s performance in recent days has been, to put it charitably, erratic. In an attempt to show leadership on the financial crisis, he has called Americans into ranks — long after hostilities began. Meanwhile, back in much-reviled Washington, the generals with cooler heads and a clearer picture of the battlefield are doing their jobs, minus all the histrionics.
Thus far, an objective observer would have to say that Congress has behaved well in the days since Treasury Secretary Henry Paulson delivered a three-page ransom note that said, and I paraphrase, “Give me $700 billion, or I’d hate to see anything bad happen to that nice economy of yours.”
Our elected representatives took seriously the urgency of the crisis. They did not fall into partisan bickering. A rough consensus began to emerge: It is important to act expeditiously but not to panic. It is unwise to give this administration — or any administration — a blank check with absolutely no oversight, as Paulson had sought. Paulson, the White House or somebody should explain why this plan will work and why some other plan wouldn’t work better. And the corporate executives who put their companies at risk and then turn to the government for a bailout should not be rewarded with multimillion-dollar compensation packages subsidized by the taxpayers.
Negotiations between a Democratic Congress and a Republican administration on these and other points seemed to be proceeding at lightning speed, given the usual pace of such things in Washington. But then, for reasons known only to himself, in charged McCain to rescue the unimperiled. Said Rep. Barney Frank (D-Mass.), who has been the lead negotiator for the Democratic majority in the House: “Now that we are on the verge of making a deal, John McCain airdrops himself in to help us make a deal.”
At face value, McCain’s sudden “suspension” of his campaign and his call to delay the first presidential debate can be seen as pure politics. Lately, McCain has been sliding in the polls, and Barack Obama has been rising. The Wall Street crisis markedly accelerated these trends. Late September is not the time to let your opponent widen his lead.
Changing the subject, which the McCain people have raised to an art form, wasn’t an option this time — the public is hardly in the mood for another Paris Hilton ad — so the campaign had to try to somehow get out in front of the crisis. Given McCain’s initial assessment that the fundamentals of the economy are strong, that wasn’t going to be easy.
The solution was to try to make it look as if McCain were leading the heroic effort to save the American way of life. To do this, he had to portray the negotiations over a rescue plan — which had been making orderly progress — as stalled and in shambles. “We must meet as Americans, not as Democrats or Republicans, and we must meet until this crisis is resolved,” McCain said, calling on everyone to “temporarily set politics aside.”
But in trying to put himself at center stage, McCain managed to insert politics into the situation. The first issue all week on which congressional Democrats and Republicans split along party lines was whether McCain’s noisy intervention demonstrated boldness or bluster.
The surest way to derail any prospect of a timely rescue plan would be to have Obama and McCain get involved in the nit and the grit of the negotiations. The reason is obvious: The two major-party presidential candidates would never really abandon the campaign with less than six weeks left before the election. They’d just be shifting it to a venue where it could do maximum damage. The anodyne joint statement from the two campaigns Wednesday highlighting the urgency of the situation was about the most constructive thing Obama and McCain could do, next to staying the out of the way.
McCain succeeded in focusing attention on himself, but not necessarily in a good way. Voters may see this not as an illustration of brave leadership but as another example of McCain’s “ready, fire, aim” approach to dealing with any crisis. Putting himself at the center of events — making any situation all about him — is more than a political tactic for McCain. It’s his nature, and I wonder if most Americans won’t be unnerved at the prospect of electing a president who’s always so ready for his close-up.

I blame our government for this mortgage crisis, that means Democrats, Republicans, and Independents.
Although lately I’m getting pretty tied of the Democrats blaming the Republicans lack of regulation, when it was the Democrats that blocked “Federal Housing Enterprise Regulatory Reform Act of 2005, S. 190″;
http://www.govtrack.us/congress/bill.xpd?bill=s109-190
a bill that would have placed much needed regulations on Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. Every single Democrat voted against it in Committee, and threatened it with a filibuster if it were to be brought to the Senate floor for a full vote by the Senate.
Now we need John McCain to wake up and expose these Democrats for what they are. He needs to in his own words:
“Fight for whats right for our country.
Fight for the ideals and character of a free people.
Fight for our childrens future.
Fight for justice and opportunity for all.
Stand up to defend our country from its enemies.
Stand up for each other; for beautiful, blessed, bountiful America.
Stand up, stand up, stand up and fight. Nothing is inevitable here. Were Americans, and we never give up. We never quit. We never hide from history. We make history.”
Come on McCain, get with it!
Now here’s part of an article I read.
The truth about the Mortgage meltdown. It is a Democratic debacle!
In 1999, liberals were bragging about extending affirmative action to the financial sector. Los Angeles Times reporter Ron Brownstein hailed the Clinton administration’s affirmative action lending policies as one of the “hidden success stories” of the Clinton administration, saying that “black and Latino homeownership has surged to the highest level ever recorded.”
Meanwhile, economists were screaming from the rooftops that the Democrats were forcing mortgage lenders to issue loans that would fail the moment the housing market slowed and deadbeat borrowers couldn’t get out of their loans by selling their houses.
Rep. Barney Frank denounced Mankiw, saying he had no “concern about housing.” How dare you oppose suicidal loans to people who can’t repay them! The New York Times reported that Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac were “under heavy assault by the Republicans,” but these entities still had “important political allies” in the Democrats.
Now, at a cost of hundreds of billions of dollars, middle-class taxpayers are going to be forced to bail out the Democrats’ two most important constituent groups: rich Wall Street bankers and welfare recipients.
Political correctness had already ruined education, sports, science and entertainment. But it took a Democratic president with a Democratic congress for political correctness to wreck the financial industry.

For the past 2 years we have had a majority Democratic Congress that have a 9% approval rating. They have the same policies as Obama, so why would anyone more than 9% support Obama? Obama = Pelosi Obama= Reid.
Obama can’t even give a yes or no on legislation let alone make it.
You say that the Democratic Congressional Majority has failed, but, what you don’t realize is that the President has power of veto which means he has the power to reject any legislation that doesn’t fit his parties objectives. Therefore, much of the blame should be placed squarely on the shoulders of George Bush a Republican.
Once there is a democratic president and a democratic congress then the democratic platform can be truly realized. Until then there will be a lot of push and pull between the parties.
BTW…Obama has helped create and get passed a variety of legislative issuses as a member of the US Senate.
The city of Los angeles spent millions of dollars to instigate a war between latinos, jews and the neo-nazi at a time when they say they are broke. first they bring the illegal latinos to america and give the african american jobs to pit them against each other. now they are add the neo-nazi to the boiling pot.
i only hope that the black, whites, yellow, brown and other wake up an understand the game their enemy play to keep them filled with hate rage and anger because of the laws they pass.
KNOW YOUR ENEMY it’s not the color of a person skin it the color of their soul. The truth is the light and if you are to filled with anger and hate you block out the light.
what i saw was young people who wanted to make a change, lead by these puppet organization who are setting them up for jail, the terrorist list, felons etc because they play on their emotions by bringing them to protest to arouse their anger and pit them against the very people the need to be in unity with. we all have the same enemy the corporation working for the demonic powers that be and the politicians making laws against the people.
i met 4 people their who knew that the democratic convention was being hailed at the same time. they new nothing about the democrats were choosing a democratic congress person to represent or that it was open to the public to come and hear their agenda, other knew that the democratic party didn’t represent them. i saw young people frustrated with a since of hopelessness.
i say to all of these young people nazi, blacks, jew, mexican, whites,latino, asian, Philippines and other don’t approach your enemy by cutting off the nail trying to cure the fungus. no your enemies. use your brain. depend on know-one to teach you. READ READ READ

Approach-avoidance question #499 & #330 in 2007 CNN-YouTube Presidential Debates. Now “Signing Statement 9/29/2009: Public Vote on Congressional Bills” http://healthcare.change.org/actions/view/signing_statement_9292009_public_vote_on_congressional_bills
Constitutional Upgrade 28.0 inserts just 18 hard words into the 1st sentence of the 2nd paragraph of Article I section 7:
…Every bill which shall have passed the House of Representatives and the Senate, OR AT THE DISCRETION OF CONGRESS, EVERY COMPETING VERSION OF A BILL HAVING GAINED THE PUBLIC VOTE MAJORITY, shall, before it become a law, be presented to the President….
Generating a purely psychological restoring force–to the present government by psychological operations. Job 1 of Party machinery is to spin every new idea or issue apart by its extremes culminating in a bait-and-switch, wherein private interest power is retained at the last minute.
Is the Shadow Govt real? Just follow the money trail–until you are told you can look no further. SHAGGED, as it were.
28.0 is purely a psychological restoring force in that Congress has this Option right now without an amendment–as a binding resolution, binding on only Congress itself to pass along the public vote majority winning version of a bill to the President.
The opportunity this 28.0 alternative to the zeitgeist paradigm http://www.zeitgeistmovie.com/ offers to the secret-societies is in its anti-SHAGGING effect: The opportunity to conduct the financial global theater of operations under the higher protocols of the more productive Consent of the Governed.
There you have it–fascism and communism stem from the same philosophical roots, and it’s back to them uglies we be charting a course, ya scurvy scoundrels. Or else, here be a new modus operandi anyone with a drop of American Revolution remaining in his/her profile should find a proper Constitutional alternative.
This video appeared several times a night on the background monitors in Paula Zahn’s CNN’s weeklong show explaining the new debate format…and it even seemed like the CNN VP was talking it over one night with the Decision Team: “When he asks that question, they’re just going to…” and then the camera cut away. Well what could any presidential candidate or media commentator say about how a bill really becomes a law…except both parties have America living a lie, and this 28.0 Emergency Spin Recovery Procedure is the only way to pull out of the spin before all this Reagan-emulation finishes flying the whole works into the ground.
The Crisis of Democracy is worldwide–28.0 is the means to regain US Moral Authority after the crash. SunTzu says: Rule #1 in “Art of War” is hold Moral Authority high ground. Once we emerge from what will effectively be ONE WORLD CURRENCY BANKRUPTCY PROCEEDINGS, meanwhile the media expert commentators heads spin faster and faster to throw off blame.
In actual practice though moderation would prevail, since the competing Republican and Democratic versions of a bill would need to be written away from party base extremes in order to gain the public vote majority. In a process that would REDIRECT THE CASH FLOW, effect the line-item veto, and effect campaign finance reform, while pulling out of the CNN/FOX spin.
The reasoning behind this answer/question, is explained way too metaphorically in my book “The Maturing of the Democratic Process” published by iUniverse.com, http://www.iuniverse.com/Bookstore/BookDetail.aspx?BookId=SKU-000045833
As book points out, more amendments have dealt with the extension of voting rights than any other single issue. An NRA would form the next logical term in the series. Which Marilyn vos Savant and Constitutional Law Prof. Jonathan Turley of George Washington University have been asked to comment–also with no reply.
INITIATIVES aka privately written laws are NOT supported. 28.0 legitimizes present govt by competing private-sector polls, and focus groups–now configured to find out what lies to tell to get through continuous campaign election/news cycle.
One thing the conservatives, liberals, and communists all say is eventually their government will “just wither away.” (Sleep with the fish.)
Perspective here is to re-strike balance of power–promoting human-spiritual growth accompanying every step in the extension of voting rights vs. era of govt by psych-ops keeping America in adolescent state via media-generated scapegoats.

Why should the American voters trust Obama when he says "I will cut taxes on the middle class" ?
Has Barack ever voted for any proposals on tax cuts while in the Senate?
Don’t know for sure, but I suspect that you would have to go back to Kennedy for a Democratic president to reduce taxes of any kind.
EDIT: Here’s Obama’s voting record:

We have heard about the community reinvestment act and Acorn and Barack Obama,Georgw W Bush and the congress, and the senate, Fannie mae and Freddie Mac..
