[conservativefromGa]

Senate debate on the gun manufactures liability bill will begin at 9:30 this morning on C-Span2. Expect Feinstein to attach her Assault Weapons Ban renewal rider on it. Also McCain may attach a rider closing the so called "gun show loophole". This is it folks.

That's what Senator Kennedy said? (snicker)

I say we just keep this thread running.

I was going to cross link this with the main Senate thread yesterday but saw that you had already done that. This looks like a good way to do it, a 'live thread' per issue/bill, cross referenced to the monthly.

P.S. - Looks like C-SPAN is going to have to go to a 7 sec. delay with all the whack-jobs cursing. The ones spouting communist revolutionary ideas were bad enough...

[OXENinFLA]

Yeah,(I know what guy you're talking about) Since Howard Stear callers don't have anywhere else to go they Call C-span.

[Dead Corpse]

Right here. Already got the Defense Undersecretary going over sexual harassment policy. ***YAWN***

I need a LOT more coffee for this stuff.

"Looks like C-SPAN is going to have to go to a 7 sec. delay with all the whack-jobs cursing."

Maybe they thought Hillary or Diane will pull a Janet while on camera.

[StriperSniper]

I was thinking the same thing about them probably being angry Stern fans, but didn't want to blame Howard. There are plenty around here(not necessarily on this thread) that normally would talk about personal responsibility, but will also blame Howard for third persons actions just because they don't like him.

Ok, what is the scoop on:

1. Gun lock amdmt
2. amendment re: concealed carry (is that the off duty/retired cops exemption?)
3. Amdmt. on Snipers
4. amdmt on LEOS
5. DC gun ban amdmt (I thought guns were banned in DC)

[OXENinFLA]

See my post #360.

Those are the only 2 in the Record.

[looscnnn]

"Those are the only 2 in the Record."

So other than the concealed carry amendment, we don't know anything about the other ones I listed? Peachy!

[OXENinFLA]

Did you catch when someone said that Laughntenbugr said something about Chamblis being a draft dodger?

[looscnnn]

When I got up this morning and turned on the tv to check for a work delay, they were talking about the release of info regarding the Columbine shootings and they were going to have the Brady's on. It struck me as odd that they would have all this going on today, kinda looks staged. Maybe that is why the dems were talking so much yesterday, to setup the Columbine info release and talking to the Brady's.

[StriperSniper]

Showtime!

[Dan from Michigan]

CSPAM - Several Amendments are expected throughout the day including on the so called 'gun show loophole"

[TC Rider]

CSPAN has switched from the aggreieved congressional black caucus to the shot of the Senate floor.

Invocation now.

[Dead Corpse]

Looks like we are on. Prayer starting now...

[Dead Corpse]

One second apart. Nice work...

[StriperSniper]

I heard something like that but missed the source.

[Dead Corpse]

Frist up talking about getting the Amendments worked through.

Could you post links to the other thread(s) please?
