Now he's just being stupid. If they didn't vote for it the first time, they're not going to buy it the second time.

“Now he’s just being stupid. If they didn’t vote for it the first time, they’re not going to buy it the second time. “

West Virginia is a conservative pro gun state. Manchin got himself elected by posing as a “different kind of Democrat”, conservative, pro gun, etc. well, it appears to me he is now outed. I’m hoping the good citizens of WV see it that way too and get him out in his next primary.

And since then, co-sponsor Sen. Pat Toomey (R-PA) who still can't sit because of the blistering a**-kicking he got from enraged Pennsylvania gun owners, has said he's done pushing the gun control bill.

There. Fixed it.

Heard this on the morning news....they said Sen Toomey has decided to remove his support from the bill. LOL.

Is this whole new gun grab an admission that The Brady Act is a failure?

Wasn't THAT supposed to bring about the very Shangri-La that this new gun grab bill is supposed to bring?

It’s dead, Jim.

As we inch closer to 2014 nobody is going to stick out their necks out again on gun control. It’s a certain loser for Senators living in red states and they actually just want the issue to go away right now.

The ONLY reason Manchin is doing this is because he thinks he’s far enough away from his own re-election (if he actually runs for re-election) to be able to do this.

As Toomey himself has said, they had a vote and there is no reason to think a new vote would turn out any different. Even Dingy Harry said gun control is on hold.

It’s dead, Jim.

Guns and coal.

Manchin betrays West Virginians in both categories.

What a quisling.

I heard them plotting on MSNBC, they plan on doing it next year AFTER the GOP primaries when GOP Senators are running back to the left or middle for the general election.

Yeah, Manchin said if he could just get Senators to READ the bill. That was the problem - what was in it, stupid!

I love the STRONG attitude. I believe you will have success with that approach Sen. Manchin. Keep up the good work!

Now he's just being stupid. If they didn't vote for it the first time, they're not going to buy it the second time.

If they don't succeed the first time, try a second, and a third, etc until it passes. Custom tells us that once a law it is almost impossible to repeal it. We are in deep shi! unless we get the Senate and keep the House. And after 2016 and King Obama has voided elections, the dictator will pen it a law. Keep our eye on impeachment.

They just have to figure out who to buy off and at what price.
When you can write checks that won’t bounce, you can buy anyone.

NEVER TRUST THE GOP !
In short, the GOP is full of VILE members who'll sell us out in a heartbeat!

Here are the ones that I know about.
What do we do when our side is full of TRAITORS?
I submit the following for proof.

Check out this link, "Senate Republicans Willfully and Knowingly Lie to Their Constituents (vote to fund Obamacare)".And let's not forget Sen. John McCain, one of Conservatives worst enemies, saying 'I don't understand' GOP filibuster on guns.
Thanks to Cyropaedia for this:

Criminals don’t obey gun laws.

The federal government doesn’t enforce gun laws against criminals.

No one with the slightest bit of common sense believes anything the federal government says.

No one with the slightest bit of common sense trusts the federal government to obey the law itself, to enforce laws Obama and the democrats don’t like, or to keep promises made when trying to win votes or rally support.
