Where the Presidential candidates stand on gun rights.

The Daily Beast has an interesting, if short, synopsis of the gun control positions held by candidates for President of the United States. 

Bottom Line: Rick Perry, Michele Bachmann, Rick Santorum, and Jon Huntsman are all strong advocates for gun owners.  And of course, Ron Paul is the gun-rights workhorse in the field.  Gun owners have no better friend in Congress than Rep. Paul.

Dishonorable Mention:  Mitt Romney.  Loves his Massachusetts gun control, supports a 5-day waiting period and supports banning so-called "assault rifles" (I got $5 that says Romney couldn't identify an "assault" rifle if his ass depended on it).

And finally, the scourge of the Republican Party.  The short, fat, adulterous little fake conservative from Georgia:

Newt Gingrich is an enemy of gun owners.  And a dangerous one.  He has toured the country claiming to support the rights of gun owners.  He's lying.  Gingrich supported the Lautenberg Amendment, Gun-Free School Zones and other Schumer/Brady-style gun control legislation.  Now that Gingrich is running for President, he claims to be a champion for the rights of gun owners.  Don't believe it.
