Head fake. Look for Reid to now go with the “nuclear” option.

Exactly! Since he voted no he can now bring it back up for another vote once some asshat who would do an evil deed regardless of ANY laws, pops his head up and takes out some more folks. The brady bunch and mark kelley-giffords are chomping at the bit hoping someone does it. The sooner the better from their point of view. Dancin’ on graves.

I’m still confused about whether universal background checks were part of the original bill. No news report I’ve read seems to acknowledge that.

Reid can bring up the package of gun proposals again if circumstances change Meaning, Republicans leave town.
Interesting Cloture information
These snakes (Dems) will stoop to new lows to get this passed - and cheating isn't the half of it.
To: Sub-Driver
It’ll be snuck into another Bill which has NOTHING to do with guns, as an ‘innocuous’ amendment.
To: Sub-Driver
Hey Dinghy Harry - shelve it up your ass!

The way of the Democrat: if their bill fails, they just wait a bit and bring it back up for a vote. They keep voting on it until it passes. Then they're done. If a Repub tried this with a Repub bill, the Dems (and the media) would howl that it had already been voted on and failed, that it's time to move on (meaning, don't bring it up again!).

The 1968 Gun Control law and Clinton’s Aw ban passed ONLY because they loaded it with PORK in the form of $$$$$ to the states for “crime control”.
One town near here got a whole $150.00 from the 1968 law.

Waiting for the next deranged nutjob for another rampage.
Make no mistake, gun control will be the hot-button issue for 2014.

I thought the gun bill “deserved a vote”? Michelle Obama said so!

Im still confused about whether universal background checks were part of the original bill. No news report Ive read seems to acknowledge that. Yes it was. The base bill that Reid/Schumer put forth was much worse than the carefully crafted Manchin/Toomey amendment.
To: Sir Napsalot
Obama is pissed, so I fully expect something bigger and badder than Newtown sooner rather than later. I’m sure some nutjob’s already groomed and ready to be activated as we speak.
To: Sub-Driver
“circumstances change” = hoping for another Newtown

A Senate Democratic leadership aide said Reid can bring up the package of gun proposals again if
circumstances change we are are lucky enough to have another mass shooting where lots of children die...
Which sadly enough is what many of the ghouls are hoping for

saw a post from another thread that suggested, speculated, posited, that Friday may see an arrest in monday’s mess, and that could be the unwasted crisis needed.
YMMV
