Just get frustrated when it is so plain what is going on and want people to take their blinders off. Our five Republican Oklahoma Congressmen knew they were not losing any political capital here by voting against it, but people in swing districts do not have that same level of comfort in their races. Do you think if I say that enough, people will understand?

Let me say one thing again -- support the NRA in their fight to overturn this Unconstitutional bill. Visit their website at:

NATIONAL RIFLE ASSOCIATION (NRA)

This was one of those times when elected officials were faced with a clear choice...uphold the Constitution, as they have sworn to do, or cave in to political pressures.

I personally have NO sympathy for them...not even my own Congressman John Thune, who is facing a race against incumbent Democrat Senator Tim Johnson this year.
