Several Senate Republicans on Tuesday came out publicly against filibustering the first major gun control legislation since 1993 before it is even brought up for debate on the Senate floor, as advocates inched toward breaking a conservative blockade of the measure.

Ms. Collins said she had spoken several times with Mr. Manchin and was pleased that the new language would exempt from background checks the sale or exchange of guns between family members. Under the measure, records of gun sales would be kept, but Ms. Collins said she was satisfied that those records could in no way be compiled into a national gun registry, a fear gun rights groups have been voicing.

RINOs on the loose!
“Under the measure, records of gun sales would be kept, but Ms. Collins said she was satisfied that those records could in no way be compiled into a national gun registry, a fear gun rights groups have been voicing.”
If records are kept then it’s already being compiled into a national gun registry.
These people must take us for fools and yet they keep coming out looking more and more like the idiots they are.
I second the vote.
It sounds like the GOOBers are settling for a camel’s nose gun bill. Once it is allowed to start, it will never stop.
VOTING IS NOT DEBATING> HELLO! MACCAIN.
THat is why the Filibuster is vital to KEEP THE DEBATE and not give a war declaration mandate to crazy govertoid Senators.
Insanity is getting huge expenses and programs and high level maintenance where it is not needed, ie. unlimited government.
They are trying to portray us as war mongering antigovernment nuts when they are the war and budget mongering nutcases.
Again, RINOs are going to carry the dirty waters of Democrate Civil War, Vietnam war declarations, along with war on men, families and babies.
Check it out, we are ruled by idiots and crazies.
They salivate like idiots on MSNBC.
Leave it to idiocy to start war.
Yeah, Kerry, you have the right to be stupid indeed...
North Korea is going to take notice.
Key passage:
-
At this point, advocates of the gun bill appear on the edge of the 60 votes they will need to break a filibuster, but it is close.
-
IT’S CLOSE FOLKS, KEEP FIGHTING....
RED STATE RATS MIGHT SAVE US!!!
Well, as a Christian who believes we all originated from Adam, I consider all of humanity my family, so I will go about business as usual.
In this age of oppression, bigotry, hate, and ignorance there is no gun bill that could be called “reasonable.”
Call your reps. Write ‘em, too.
K?
Everytime I read an article that smells like effluence, I look up and there it is:
It took all of two writers to come up withis drivel and they went to their goto girl Susan Collins.
Must be lazy azz writers. What about Olympia Snowes fine contribution to this fictional story, which has elements of truth but, is badly shaded to obfuscate probably what the real content and context of the conversation was with Collins.
So does the Assclown and Reid have EVERY Demonrat on board with his shredding of the Second Amendment?
RINOs getting screwed by liberals who play the SUn TZU card of word games.
Voting and debating are two different things.
Voting is akin to a war declaration mandate.
But leave it to the bling bling of flamboyance and flamer congress critters to say we are against debate because we filibuster.
So instead of keeping the debate in Senate or making war abroad, they are going to declare it on US soil.
These parents who have had their children killed at Sandy are being exploited in hate and vengence mongering booths as we speak.
Mark my words, they are being brainwashed by the very people responsible for the death of their kids, to make war on legal citizens.
And so it goes.
When a liberal does protest or filibuster it is debate, when they vote, it is debate. But when we do either, we are nuts busting the budget.
Check it out. THe lazy RINOs are at it again.
Gotta be a first. Records which can in no way be compiled. Must be on those Mission Impossible self-destruct tapes.
Kudos to Senator James Inhofe, Republican of Oklahoma, for pointing out Obama's crass political use of the Newton victim's families for his own nefarious schemes. Shame on a President who would take advantage of their grief in such a way. Despicable.
BUMP!
And why not, Susan, honey?
Because they promised you?
So they pick out the retard of the bunch and shove a mic in her mouth..then quote her from leading questions.
Isn’t there hate crime laws forbidding the abuse of the mentally retarded like this?
