Eight Senate Republicans joined with 44 Democrats on a Republican-proposed compromise that would deny people on two different federal watch lists the ability to buy weapons unless they could successfully appeal that decision. Several other Republican senators showed some willingness to accept new restrictions on gun purchases if they could be structured in an acceptable way. A bipartisan companion measure also was introduced in the House.

McConnell won’t do this. He and Frist allowed McInsane to run the senate for years.

Now Ryan has folded on gun control. The Republicans have given me little reason to vote for them in the fall in the congressional elections. They are useless and lie every time their mouths move.
