Republican presidential candidate Mitt “Who Can Believe He’s Still In This Race?” Romney has no idea where he stands on gun control.
On December 16, he talked about his history with the Brady Bill with Tim Russert on Meet the Press:
MR. RUSSERT: But you’re still for [the Brady Bill].
GOV. ROMNEY: Let’s describe what it is. I signed — I would have supported the original assault weapon ban. I signed an assault weapon ban in Massachusetts governor because it provided for a relaxation of licensing requirements for gun owners in Massachusetts, which was a big plus. And so both the pro-gun and the anti-gun lobby came together with a bill, and I signed that. And if there is determined to be, from time to time, a weapon of such lethality that it poses a grave risk to our law enforcement personnel, that’s something I would consider signing. There’s nothing of that nature that’s being proposed today in Washington. But, but I would, I would look at weapons that pose extraordinary lethality…
MR. RUSSERT: So the assault ban that expired here because Congress didn’t act on it, you would support?
GOV. ROMNEY: Just as the president said, he would have, he would have signed that bill if it came to his desk, and so would have I.
Then on Saturday, he said he’ll veto any gun-control bill that comes his way if he’s elected president.
I wonder if he always wears flip-flops when he handles assault weapons.
