The first vote is to end the fillibuster. I'll post the other votes on this thread when they happen and when Thomas prints them. On this first vote, a YEA vote ends the fillibuster.
Everything should happen in the next 30 hours since cloture was invoked. However, right now - Drunken swimmer Ted Kennedy is going on a very long rant.

Then why do you say you have *no* control over their (NRA's) actions. You may not have much, but you do have some, as do I.
The challenge was there before the 2000 election. Stop the Bill before it reaches his desk. I am not going to absolve the lazy gun owners for their lack of responsibility."
I agree that many don't get off their duff to vote. It's wrong and it's pathetic. However, many of us do vote and we voted for the GOP and against gun control, but that hasn't stopped the GOP from allowing it to happen on their watch anyway.
The fact remains that even though (some of) we didn't actively protect our rights, the government with the GOP in the lead is proactively stripping us of them. And it's intolerable and unforgiveable.
"Let me know when 46-54 passes a law.
