June 20, 2016, 08:20 pm Clinton releases one-word statement on failed gun votes

By Lisa Hagen

In a one-word statement, Hillary Clinton blasted Senate Republicans for voting down a Democratic-backed gun control measure to prevent suspected terrorists from purchasing firearms in the wake of the mass shooting in Orlando last weekend. “Enough,” the presumptive Democratic nominee's campaign wrote in a statement following the Monday night Senate votes. It also listed the names and ages of the 49 people killed at Pulse nightclub.

The Senate rejected four separate gun control measures Monday evening -- two that dealt with background checks and two that sought to prevent people on terrorist watchlists from buying guns. All four were expected to fail.

The pinnacle vote was on a measure sponsored by Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.) that would have prohibited people on terrorist watchlists from buying guns or explosives. It failed 47-53. Sen. Heidi Heitkamp (N.D.) was the only Democrat to vote against it.

Schmucks like you and me will never know. It’s too ‘nuanced’ for us as she’s the smartest woman in ANY room.

Looks like we can expect more deaths from former FBI ingormants, until of course Hillary has had enough.

Hillary wants to take away your 2nd Amendment rights.

She and the Democrats are more interested in political posturing than in doing something about Muslims who are killing Americans.

We should say “enough” to Mrs. Clinton’s presidential bid.

It is directed at the LGBT Phoenix Trump endorsement which said, “Enough is enough!”

Barely had time to focus group test it.

Pray America wakes

***What the hell does “enough” mean?***

Just think of Star Trek and the famous line “Harcourt Fenton MUD!

“Enough,”

Oh good, no more BS false flag, crisis actor 'events' since they didn't serve a purpose after all.

There must be more to this regulation than just ‘watchlist’. No bill is ever that simple. They are normally piled in with others.

“Enough” is the equivalent to “What difference does it make”.

She most likely was flailing her arms in the air and wearing her birth control glasses while saying it too.

Democrats shot down that sensible gun control proposal.

They wouldn’t touch it with a ten foot pole.

In other words, they want to disarm you and not Islamic terrorists.

Why is the Left so obsessed with the MEANS of murder?
They don't seem to care about the number of people, etc. they simply care about how you are murdered.

It’s a way to sound tough.
Her supporters will take it to mean “if she gets elected for she will make this happen.”
Her detractors will take it to mean “If she gets elected, she will break any law and violate the Constitution to make this happen”

“Enough” simply means that she has had enough playing by the rules and is now just going to confiscate all the guns, period.

She’s using the royal “enough.” She’s too superior to have to explain herself.

It means “I’ve had ENOUGH of your stinking republican form of government and you’d better vote for me as Your Supreme Leader if you know what’s good for you. I’ll fix this country once and for all.”
