Poor Obama, with the Boston bombing and now the Ricin attack on the Senate, nobody, not even his own liberal media is giving any airtime to the Gabby Giffords/Newtown Parents sobfest on parade, which he was counting on to put gun control over the top.

'Bammy and Ried will buy or bargain for the votes they need.

It worked so well for Obamacare.

Wobbly Ds will vote for cloture, and then vote against the bill.

IT’ll pass.

Bastards.

We’re almost into the 2014 election cycle, and senators are going to morph into fanny protection mode pretty quickly here.

Looks like another Louisiana Purchase to me.

Wait, what?

Some of our elected realized that the bill of rights grants no man anything, but prohibits the government from abridging the citizen’s rights?

Nah, they put their finger in the wind, or somewhere, and became non-commital or something, at least on record.

Just damn. May the rest of this pack of poseurs find a link with vertibrates.

Perhaps McCain and Omoslem should focus on disarming AL QAEDA and stop persecuting Americans.

How the hell we got stuck with this band of vicious traitors, I’ll never fully comprehend.

The search is on for a lobbyist of Sinator with a boat a few feet bigger than Manchin’s. His yacht is 54 feet, and yielded these 56 or whatever votes. Perhaps you gotta have a 60’ or better yacht to get up to 60 votes. Time will tell...

The RINO's will cave, under the guise of some meaningless Amendment, saying it "changed their minds".

ALL the Un-Constitutional Legislation that's been passed has NEVER been challenged on it's Constitutionality, and with the corrupt Legal System of Liberal-planted goofy Judges, we will be stuck with such un-Constitutional Legislation (such as Obamacare), because of some tortured legal interpretation to further The Agenda. Just as baby-killing is interpreted as a "woman's Right", Guaranteed Freedoms are being destroyed and The Constitution is being ignored. (The "Commerce Clause" comes to mind as one example of how to Regulate via un-Elected Dictators of Policy).

I wonder if yesterday’s events in Boston are having an effect on the vote. A nation of responsible citizens whose government can’t protect them in open public spaces would do well to have a healthy skepticism about any kind of gun control measure that’s passed in the name of public safety.

And I was going to invest in these new Good Citizen .38s.

They are going to corner the market on handguns.
