Bye-Bye Background Checks

[Pinchaser]

Looks like the backgrounds checks bill goes down just like high capacity mags & assault weapons ban.

Background check compromise falls 6 votes short in blow to gun control backers - First Read

These are not "bills".....they are proposed amendments to a bill that will be voted on later. That vote has already defacto been taken. All voting Senators have already indicated their position. We win. Ayotte of NH was the libs last chance for passage. She announced at 2pm today that she will vote No.

Four Republicans - Sens. John McCain of Arizona, Susan Collins of Maine, Mark Kirk of Illinois and amendment author Toomey - broke with the rest of the GOP to support the background check legislation.

And hopefully their employers (the people) will show them what they think of it come re-election time.

For now. Stay alert and informed, if anyone thinks this is over they are mistaken, especially since the vote was so close.

This^^^ Time to get the tin foil hat.

Just look for them to tack it on to some other bill, and try to sneak it through when nobody is paying attention.

where does Barry O keep getting this 90% of people wanted stronger background checks ?

 

[searpinski]

The battle is won but the war is far from over.

 

[BigMoose]

YEAH BABY!

Agreed, lets not let up. They will try something else in a month or two.

He making up his own facts AGAIN. He is mad about someone finally told him NO! The Libs love making up fact when they do not have them to support their theories.

 

[JeremyC]

Thanks to all those supporters out there keep it up don't let them take our freedoms

 

[rnmcguire]

YES! I'm still waiting to see what these "meaningful gun control measures that will reduce gun violence" are that the President speaks of?

 

[daddymikey1975]

For now. They will not stop. Fienstein and her ilk will only put the bill back in the top drawer and pull it out [STRIKE]when convenient[/STRIKE] after the next incident

Fixed it for you Churchmouse

Where he gets all his other lies from, he makes them up. He says whatever he wants to, then the lap dog media reports it enough times until the low-information voters believe it to be true. George Orwell couldn't write fiction like this.

The Kenyan in Chief had a hissy in front of the cameras in the Rose Garden. Great stuff!
Denied! I would look for something really underhanded from his camp.

Maybe he will now cease parading the Newtown folk around like freaks in a sideshow.........

It's not over. Keep up the fight. Hopefully some of the socialists who were stupid enough to vote for this anti-American garbage will pay the price come next election day.

Yea Senator Donnelly

 

[Titanium Man]

Stay ever vigilant!! These snakes are waiting for 2014. They are purposely pounding the media in toss up states so as to win the House, and hopefully keep the Senate, and then it's all over. They said the healthcare bill wouldn't pass, so never, ever rest!! Keep writing your reps, and keep getting the word out, especially to friends in other states.

To quote Harry Reid........"I'm going to do everything that I can to fight for meaningful background check legislation. The fight has just begun. It's not going away."

 

[GlockRiver]

Its actually just beginning... Keep your guard up.
