Bush Administration flip-flop?

Posted by David Hardy · 29 December 2006 10:03 AM

Instapundit asks: Is the Bush Administration flip-flopping on the Second Amendment?. Story is here.

Basically, FAA, in precribing rules for space pilots, and forbidding them to be armed (so much for Star Trek), went out of its way to assert the "collective right" theory.

UPDATE: David Codrea emails the FAA and is told the rule was approved by the Executive Office of the President. Of course, this may just mean that some overworked fellow got a stack of papers relating to rules for private space flight on his desk, knowing nothing of the subject, gave it a quick read and signed off.

Insty-link seems to be aimed in the wrong direction. Thought you'd like to know.

Apologies: My same link to Instapundit has been changed - now it's listing some Saddam news.

Odd when a Perma-link aint permanent.

Fascinating, the original post read: IS THE BUSH ADMINISTRATION flip-flopping on the Second Amendment?

UPDATE: Here's the original source, which I really should have linked here earlier. Sorry!
