Good to hear that the Hammer is on the people's side, but what about the President? If the Senate passes the bill, and the President is on the record as being in favor of it, will he pressure the House to do his bidding? Where does Hassert stand?
What is your objective?
To see the AWB die?
Or to have Bush et al beat their chests and bellow "Constitution... Second Amendment... Founding Fathers?"
You can't have both.
Once Bush et al show their hand the DemoncRATS have a clear field of fire.
