[Of course I don't have to remind you guys about then Mayor Diane Feinstein, who, feeling vulnerable and threatened, carried a concealed weapon (handgun) in her purse for two years. --MS] ----------------------------------------------------------------- Debbie Schlussel Signs the Gun-Control Apocalypse May be Upon Us http://www.jewishworldreview.com -- THREE SIGNS the apocalypse may be upon us-or, at least, a large dose of sheer hypocrisy is: 1) Moralizing Rosie O'Donnell's bodyguard carries a gun and seeks a conceal and carry permit; 2) Al Gore blasphemes G-d in an attack on gun-rights; and 3) Everybody castigates the NRA's plan for a restaurant, which will much improve seedy Times Square. Thursday's Stamford (Connecticut) Advocate reports that O'Donnell's bodyguard not only carries a gun, but has applied for a permit to carry a concealed weapon--the purpose of which would be to allow him to carry a gun on school grounds, while accompanying O'Donnell's adopted son, Parker, to public school in Connecticut's tony, exclusive Greenwich. Is this the same Rosie O'Donnell who said that, in the wake of the Columbine shootings, there should be no guns near schools and castigated the NRA and Tom Selleck for disagreeing with her rabid gun-control position? Is this the same Rosie O'Donnell who told ABC's Cokie Roberts, just over a week ago, "My son and daughter should be able to go to school without the threat of . . . a gun . . . ."? The same Rosie who told Cokie she opposes the right to carry concealed weapons because "this is not the wild west. I do not want to man all of the people in America. . . . So many people are going to be hurt doing that. . . . that would do more harm than good"? Could it be the same woman? Yup. One and the same. The same hypocrite, who apparently feels that we common folk should be unable to have those rights that her bodyguard will now enjoy. The same woman who led the "Million Mom March," but apparently feels that one-in-a-million privileged mom-herself-is immune from the government usurpation of rights she wants to prescribe for the rest of us. You've got a lot of chutzpah, Rosie. O'Donnell told The Advocate that she and her family "need protection because of threats made against her." Welcome to reality, Rosie. Guess what? We may not be celebrities, but many of us feel the need to protect our families, too. Rosie actually had the gall to express concern that publicity about her son's attendance at school, coupled with information that the guard would be unarmed, would make her son vulnerable to harm. Gee, Rosie, thanks for the tip--unarmed means vulnerable. Glad you finally figured it out. O'Donnell and Greenwich school officials are denying that the guard will be armed, but Greenwich Police Chief Peter Robbins confirmed that O'Donnell's bodyguard applied for a permit that would allow him to carry a concealed weapon. Wow, I haven't seen more hypocrisy by a pro-gun control celebrity since that woman who earned $20 million from K-Mart--one of America's most voluminous gun-sellers--spoke out against guns on her TV show but continued to do those K-Mart commercials. Oh yeah-that was Rosie O'Donnell, too. Then there's Al Gore, who doesn't like Moses-neither the real one, nor the one embodied by actor and NRA President Heston. Heston, on Saturday, reiterated his support for George W. Bush and told Gore and the NRA convention that Gore would take his freedom and his gun away "Mr. Gore, from my cold, dead hands." Nothing wrong with that. After all, this is Civil Rights--the Second Amendment--he's talking about. But there's a lot wrong with Al Gore's response to Heston. Like an immature, overgrown kid in a sandbox, Gore whined at Wednesday Night's $26 million Democratic "Hoedown" fundraiser: "The last time Moses listened to a bush, the people wandered in the desert for 40 years." As a Jewish American, I'm offended and outraged. But Gore's sacrilegious attack on G-d's image in the Burning Bush, is not just an attack on my religion and my ancestors who spent those long years in the Sinai Desert. It's an attack on all G-d fearing people, all people of faith everywhere. Gore owes G-d and all of us an apology, and we all owe him a vote for Bush. And Gore shares the same degree of hypocrisy as O'Donnell. This mere mortal man, who just attacked G-d, is the same guy who's been donning satin, fake yarmulkes at synagogues and preaching the rhythmic gospel at Black churches. But he showed us all, Wednesday Night, what he really thinks about G-d and religion. Nice touch, Al. Maybe the triggerlock you're endorsing should be on your mouth. But does anyone in the liberal media care about O'Donnell's hypocrisy or Gore's blasphemy. Of course not! They're too busy attacking the newly announced NRA plans for NRA Sports Blast, an entertainment center with a theme restaurant (NRA Sports Grille), coming soon to New York's Times Square. Media pundits, their gun control buddies, and Hillary Clinton are worried because NRA Sports Blast--with branded merchandise, shooting, realistic electronic shooting games, and virtual trap, skeet, and sporting clays--will probably become one of the Big Apple's most popular themed attractions. They don't care that Times Square is populated by obscene garbage, like sex shops, strip clubs, and other "adult" entertainment (though Rudy Giuliani cleaned some of this up). They're not bothered that children are exposed to signs and marquees featuring figurines of virtually naked women with lights placed in "strategic" locations. No, they're more concerned that the NRA's new venture in America's cultural capital will be family friendly-that families of tourists will have a good time being exposed to guns, observing the power of guns to protect lives, and learning about the importance of the Second amendment. They're afraid the NRA will be a huge improvement over anything currently in Times Square. And they're scared silly that the NRA will win more American families over in the fight on gun-control. Late Wednesday Night, while Al Gore was pontificating about the NRA's Heston, two gunmen killed five and injured two in a New York "Wendy's" restaurant. If this had been the NRA restaurant, the gunmen would be dead, not the customers. But we can't have that. A safe, family-friendly establishment in filthy Times Square-what an outrage. In the end, though, the NRA and its new center will prevail in America's theater of public opinion. Because Rosie O'Donnell's a big fake. So's Al Gore. And, right about now, they should both be feasting on crow at Times Square's new NRA Sports Grille.
