december 31st, 2009. in other words, the obama administration will henceforth be disallowed from buying anymore ammunition than the bush administration did. how terrifying would it be if the first black president bought more bullets than the previous white president? we have to stop that from happening, america. today, the other republican senator from oklahoma, senator tom coburn, withdrew at the last minute his proposed legislation that the administration is buying up all the ammo. senator coburn's legislation would have created a federal registry for federally owned guns and ammunition. it's a federal registry, but only for the guns and ammo owned by the federal government. when senator coburn started getting asked why exactly he wants to start tracking guns and ammo, senator coburn withdrew the legislation today showing it was, quote, a show of goodwill.
