Oh, my. Where to start on that page? I'm almost—but not quite—embarrassed enough for his sake to offer my services as a proofreader. What can one make of a sentence like "Congressman Mica passed an amendment in the House to preserve our servicemen and women in conflict to bear arms and protect themselves"? (At least he gets the "bear" right, though he reverts in the next paragraph.

And I'm not going to go wherever "protecting our 2nd Amendment tights" might lead. That's probably a legitimate typo, which can happen to anyone, though I'd still hope someone on his staff would catch it. My own readers aren't slow to help me correct my mistakes!

I was curious enough to look up his re-election page. Under "Issues," he has a "2nd Amendment Rights" section, where he says the following: "Under the Obama Administration, constraints on U.S. Military in combat have been restricted." So, servicemen are freer under Obama? I don't think that's what he means to say.

And what about my right to arm bears?

Well, I'm certainly happy that my right to wear short sleeves in the summer has not been taken from me.
