Here we go again. Another fake march by a fake "nonpartisan" group trying to fake-out America. Led by Donna Dees-Thomases, the latest pied-piper of constitutional reengineering, a million "moms" (give or take 900,000, depending on who's counting) marched on DC to persuade American women to revoke the second amendment. In their twisted logic, these women believe if we all toss our guns in a river, crime will disappear.

Let's quote directly from the Million Moms website: "While we acknowledge that guns may be necessary for hunting, law enforcement, and national security, the proliferation of firearms intended for one purpose only - killing another human being - has become untenable."

Untenable? Let me offer personal assurance that when the next rapist drags one of these disarmed ditzes off the street, she will beg for the touch of a cold and cocked Glock 45. Without a trigger lock. Because Chuck Schumer won't come rescue her. Rosie O'Donnell won't drop by to harangue the guy to death. Donna Dees-Thomases won't march a million women into the bushes and drag the guy out. These hypocrites who enjoy armed protection 24/7 will never be there to help. Without a gun to defend herself, the next rape victim will meekly submit to violation and humiliation at the least, violent and bloody murder at the worst. In that instant before she dies, the rapist will have converted his victim into a staunch defender of the second amendment.

Salesmen call this "the hard sell ..."

Who is Donna Dees-Thomases, anyway? And why is she demanding a million mothers surrender the best safety and defense for their families? Dees-Thomases is the sister-in-law of Susan Thomases, Hillary's best friend and staunch defender of the First Family's right to break any law they please. Her resume includes a stint as publicist for Clinton jock-sniffer Dan Rather. Dees-Thomases is no "average housewife" newly awakened to the world's problems. She is a committed liberal Democrat, disguised as a "concerned mother" to hide her leftist intentions. Like all liberal hacks, Dees-Thomases must lie about who she is, what she is and her agenda.

This crusade is actually full of lies. Twelve kids a day do not die from gun violence. Except for late-teen gang-bangers, about 100 children a year die from accidental gun deaths. Tragic, but less than the 200 who accidentally suffocate, the 950 who drown, and the 1,000 who are burned. Shall we put locks on Saran wrap? Outlaw bathtubs and stoves? 2,900 kids die every year in car accidents. Al Gore and Ted Kennedy jokes aside ... shall we outlaw the automobile?

You could write a book of irrefutable stats proving these fools are wrong. Actually, it's been written. Liberal professor John Lott clearly proved lax gun control actually leads to less crime and strict gun control leads to more gun crime. The marching mommies may not be aware of this relationship, but criminals certainly are. In every nation that has tried gun control, violent crime has risen markedly. So ladies ... why go half way? Save the suspense! Simply find the nearest rapist, drive over to his house and rip your clothes off for him.

All sorts of fools are climbing aboard this DNC-sponsored bandwagon. Career gun-hater and congresswoman Carolyn McCarthy, the irony flying over her head at warp speed, is making appearances on every talking head show as cheerleader for these Million Future Victims. Her husband and son didn't have the foresight to defend themselves against the sick man who mowed them down in a New York subway. Now, she wants the rest of America to join them.

The ultimate question is: Should we surrender the best defense against criminal violence in order to prevent 100 accidental gun deaths a year? I didn't see Dees-Thomases discuss the 2.5 million crimes stopped every year by firearms. She didn't mention the gun violence liberal Hollywood shoves down the throat of America's children, either. And she curiously avoids questioning the Clinton administration phobia of enforcing current gun laws. Please spare us the charade. Dees-Thomases doesn't give a damn about families or children. If she did, she would demand that all mothers who really care about their children arm themselves and teach the kids how and when to use guns. If some 14-year-old daughter is baby-sitting and some crack-head kicks the door down, she should know where the gun is, how to use it, and who to call to pick up the well-ventilated body.

It boils down to this: Before guns, there were knives. Before knives there were clubs. Before clubs there were rocks. There have never been shortages of ways to kill each other. But the handgun became the great equalizer. In the old American West, the saying went, "God created man. Sam Colt made them equal." Equal power is the antithesis of liberalism. That is why liberals want guns eliminated. What die-hard liberals like Dees-Thomases want is victims. Many more. Why? Because Wayne LaPierre was right.

If you recall, LaPierre accused Bill Clinton of accepting tragedy to further his political agenda. In fact, every liberal idea is specifically designed to create failure. If welfare was eliminated and we privatized Medicare and social security, unemployment would disappear, medical costs would drop like a stone, and we'd all retire millionaires. And if every woman were armed, 4,100 rapes would have not taken place last year. Without victims, liberals would have to get real jobs as convenience store clerks and such. The very existence of liberalism depends upon misery, mayhem and violence.

And that is why they want to disarm the entire nation.

Therefore, the problem isn't simply that these naive ladies are willing to martyr themselves and sacrifice their children to pacify the gods of liberalism. That is their choice. The real problem is they want the rest of America to sacrifice our families as well. They are not caring, thinking mothers. They are a dizzy bunch of helpless dopes marching to their demise, following partisan liberal political hacks like Donna Dees-Thomases.

In the end, I suppose we shouldn't worry about these ladies. After all, Democrats such as Thomases, James Carville, and the entire CNN staff spent the last four years proclaiming women who are assaulted are just a bunch of silly sluts who are asking for it.

Maybe they have a point.
