None of this answers the question "what does any of this have to do with Obama, except for the fact that the twit in question is a Democrat?" Miles is also a Texan; should we tar all Texans with the same brush? and if we're going to make infantile aspersions based on names, hey, that Miles guy's first name is Borris. Has anyone made sure he's not secretly a Russian? (So he's black; details...)
Let's bear in mind that Brian Schweitzer and Bill Richardson, governors of Montana and New Mexico, respectively, are also Democrats, but are on record as being pro-gun rights (yes, Richardson voted for the 1994 AWB--or more precisely, he voted for the bill of which the AWB was a part--but he had the good grace to acknowledge that in retrospect, the AWB was a mistake). Once you get west of the Mississippi (not counting California, which is its own microcosmos), there's a fair number of Dems who are demonstrably more pro-gun rights than a great many Republicans east of the Mississippi.
