When Dirty Harry controlled the Senate - no bills or amendments that he and obama didn’t agree with would ever make it to the floor.

When will Republicans grow a set?

I think his backing hurts anything he is backing. He has no credibility left...if he ever had any.

Politico and Salon are nearly synonymous.

"Sen. Susan Collins' attempt to keep firearms out of the hands of potential terrorists [emphasis added] just picked up its most powerful backer yet: Harry Reid."

The question that low-information, post-17th Amendment ratification senators are refusing to address is what are potential terrorists doing in the country in the first place?

Trump cannot have Mexico pay for a wall soon enough.

Sadly, Trump's wall will evidently protect citizens from incompentent, Constitution-ignoring lawmakers as well as illegal immigrants.

Rest assured that no matter what ACT is past and signed into LAW, the day after it becomes LAW it will “NOT BE ENOUGH!” and they will begin demanding even “stronger laws”.

Throw this at them - so if a person isn’t on the no-fly list, he should be able to buy a gun without going through a background check (and the attendant 4473). Wait for heads to explode.

What part of NO! don’t these A-holes understand. Susan Collins needs to be in a mental institution.

Maine republicans must be a sorry lot if Susan is the best they can keep sending to the Senate.

I know it was a waste of time but I sent him this the other day:

Dear Senator.
To say that I am disgusted with your continued “assault” on our civil rights would be an understatement. You and the other liberal democrats continue to misdirect the real issue which this administration continues to avoid. In fact, refuse to call it what it is. You and the main stream media have turned this around to make firearms the cause for every atrocity that occurs. Firearms DO NOT operate by themselves. They are inanimate objects. Apparently you and your ilk have no clue what the word “infringe” means. Even to the point of having Jeh Johnson of DHS declare domestic terrorism a threat equal to the threat from radical mulsims. You need to STOP worrying about offending someone and concern yourself with protecting law abiding citizens of this country. I still honor the oath my father used when he swore me into the Navy. Apparently, that oath means little to you.
