In fact, as far as I know, I am the only person who has EVER dared to say a word about this. Any rightist who points this out will be called anaziwhowantstokillsixmillionjews. He will usually stop immediately. If that doesn't work, liberals will get another conservative to insist that this one stop repeating himself. Nobody is more desperate to do the liberals' will than a conservative who is trying to prove to liberals that he is being reasonable.
Conservatives trying to look good in public are the best friends the left has in the world.
So conservatives never repeat anything that hurts liberals. When I worked on Capitol Hill in Washington, Congressman John Ashbrook used to do it. We were up against a huge Democratic majority in both Houses of Congress, and the Democratic Carter Administration in the White House, but we stopped them cold time after time. In the late 1970's, the BATF under President Carter tried to sneak in complete gun control. They put through a rule which registered, not guns, but ammunition.
