    Wrong Section

    Of course it's true. B/c >
    Mr. Reid can now play the two bills off each other and make the case that he kept out Mrs. Feinstein’s more controversial version.

    "Having a separate vote on assault weapons might free moderate Democratic senators facing re-election next year in Republican-leaning states to vote against the assault weapons measure, but then support the remaining overall package of gun curbs.
    Gun control supporters consider a strong Senate vote important because the Republican-run House has shown little enthusiasm for most of Obama's proposals. Feinstein said Reid told her there will be two votes. One would be on her assault weapons ban, which also includes a ban on ammunition magazines that carry more than 10 rounds of ammunition. The second would just be on prohibiting the high-capacity magazine clips."

    We must stay on our senators, just the same. She'll likely need 60 votes to move forward with her garbage amendments. We don't want mag limits. Don't budge an inch.

    Let's make damn sure she is disappointed.

    The question is how long will it be till they realize they overpaid and actually sell them for a normal price and stop trying to get there money back.

    On the surface it is good news. The under current is the flag wavers got alot of name recognition and support for their honarable efforts to protect us from ourselves and most importantly the children. Ask me how I really feel :draw:
