RINO Big Jawn Wannah is at it again. He is one of the co-sponsors of this bill.

"Most bills are routinely referred to the committee with appropriate jurisdiction as soon as they are introduced. But if a Senator plans to introduce a bill and believes that the committee to which it would be referred will be unsympathetic, Rule XIV permits the Senator to bypass the standing committee system altogether and have the bill placed directly on the Calendar of Business, with exactly the same formal status the bill would have if it had been the subject of extensive hearings and exhaustive mark-up meetings in committee." TRANSLATION - She is running out of time to renew the AWB before it expires in September, 2004...

I can see it, the AWB extension will go in, and kerry will win.
It'll be time to abandon politics forever soon I fear

Watch them ram this through - McCain, Snowe...the whole lot. Maybe it is jsut as well. It forces W. to come out on it. He will get ore votes if he vetoes it.

Big Bump. It's not an "assault weapon" ban, it's a plain and simple gun ban. They just give it a scarey name.

He won't veto it. It'll probably be time to turn in the semi-auto rifles shortly after kerry wins.

I wonder if there is any procedural method by which it could be put off until after the expiration date.

MWLWN LABE!
Molon labe
(mo-lone lah-veh)
Two little words. With these two words, two concepts were verbalized that have lived for nearly two and a half Millennia. They signify and characterize both the heart of the Warrior, and the indomitable spirit of mankind. From the ancient Greek, they are the reply of the Spartan General-King Leonidas to Xerxes, the Persian Emperor who came with 600,000 of the fiercest fighting troops in the world to conquer and invade little Greece, then the center and birthplace of civilization as we know it. When Xerxes offered to spare the lives of Leonidas, his 300 personal bodyguards and a handful of Thebans and others who volunteered to defend their country, if they would lay down their arms, Leonidas shouted these two words back.
Molon Labe! (mo-lone lah-veh)
They mean, Come and get them! They live on today as the most notable quote in military history. And so began the classic example of courage and valor in its dismissal of overwhelming superiority of numbers, wherein the heart and spirit of brave men overcame insuperable odds. Today, there lies a plaque dedicated to these heroes all at the site. It reads: Go tell the Spartans, travelers passing by, that here, obedient to their laws we lie.

The danger is if her amendment is attached to a "must-sign" bill before Sep 14 (when the AWB will sunset), and I don't think any such bills are currently in the pipeline. However, I don't see anything like this getting through, let alone out-of the House of Representatives.
Let's see if any member of congress (House mainly) wants to run for re-election this November by favoring such a bill.

That right, isn't it. I forgot that. Too many raual Democrats would even cross party lines. What was I thinking?
