Senate Now Voting on Amendments to Gun Legislation



The Senate on Wednesday is debating and will vote on several amendments to S649, the gun legislation bill which Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV) introduced last week. One of the first amendments debated and voted on is the amendment by Senators Joe Manchin (D-WV) and Pat Toomey (R-PA) which deals with background checks when purchasing a firearm.

Blumenthal is a total disgrace.
Our Founders would be horrified!

Hope our senators don’t crap out on magazines in order to give the Dems something. McCain may vote for this one. He is a fruitcake and what will Lindsey Graham do, the pos.

Oh, somewhere in this favored land the sun is shining bright;
The band is playing somewhere, and somewhere hearts are light,
And somewhere men are laughing, and somewhere children shout;
But there is no joy in DeeCee - mighty Feinstein has struck out.

Hat tip to Ernie Thayer.

If his looks could kill, every conservative would be dead. He’s so angry, I feel sorry for the dog when Hussein kicks him.

The high capacity magazine ban was rejected.

All seven of the amendments proposed this evening were rejected.

That is all for tonight on this.
They will take this up again in the morning.
There will be two more votes on amendments and then the vote on the final bill.
