Pat Toomey: Gun Compromise ‘Doesn’t Change in Any Way’ Conservative Cred

Pajamas Media ^ | 04/10/2013 | Bridget Johnson

[E. Pluribus Unum]

Primary the SOB.

[Red Steel]

Strike out everything else in the bill and leave this.

It prohibits the federal government from establishing a national firearms registry, and makes any person who misuses or illegally retains firearms records subject to up to 15 years in prison.

[aimhigh]

Hogwash. If this were real compromise, we’d be seeing a benefit to gun owners. How about they get more background checks in exchange to nationwide concealed carry license reciprocity. That would be real compromise.

[MachIV]

And if that doesn’t work, polically DEEP SIX him in the general election. If something like this is going to be done the whole place might as well be total Democrats doing it.

[mongo141]

Another RAT in RINO clothing!

[ArrogantBustard]

“I thought there was an opportunity to try to find some common ground with some of my colleagues,”

There is no common ground with leftists and tyrants.

said Toomey on the conference call afterward. “Background checks are not a perfect solution… but they do help.”

Background checks certainly do help leftists build a registry of guns and gun owners. Background checks and registries certainly have already helped leftist tyrants in New York, California, and other places to steal guns from gun owners.

[Hardraade]

Tell me again how that slime was supposed to be better than Santorum...

[NRA1995]

More of same: make it harder for the law-abiding to arm themselves while doing NOTHING to stop criminal behavior and doing NOTHING to eliminate dealy “gun free” zones.

[onyx]

Absolutely correct on both counts.

[Noumenon]

The fate of Vichy Republicans will not be kind.

His compromise doesn’t do anything to his conservative credibility? it sure does in my book. I get tired of constantly hearing that we conservatives did it because it was better than what else was out there, and we needed to find common ground. You never hear that from the dens

[Little Ray]

So who is going to enforce it, the BATFE?

[Noamie]

It’s about Trust.

Idiot.

You don’t have any. We are asking for you to build some.

Idiot.

[RatRipper]

When is a creed NOT a creed? When you don’t follow it . . . wimp

[Sir Napsalot]

He may think so, but conservatives beg to differ that opinion.

What other cred is he willing to bend? No use for him.

[demshateGod]

I disrespectfully diagree with the Senator.

[DH]

All that our republican sissies can flaunt is the fact that they are all surrender monkeys.

They are just as communist as any democrat.

[ColdOne]

I thought there was an opportunity to try to find some common ground with some of my colleagues For me that makes you part of the problem.
