And thatās the whole game. No surprise here, as was noted yesterday many times over.
The tortoise wins again.
What a smoky mirror that turned out to be.
Itās all a shell game. There was never any intention of voting on anything related to gun control this year. Getting reelected has a much higher priority. Theyāre counting the days until they go into recess and starting banging their tin cups.
Vacuum votingā¦
Jonathan just got an awesome face-paint job, what do you think?
Given this, along with Trump, if Susan Collins really wanted to make a statement, sheād resign or switch parties.
So once again we are treated to Congress doing nothing but whining and sniveling about how āDemocraticā an action is, that it is a āpolitical moveā, that it 'wonāt HELP, etc. etc. and weeping that country is just to cynical and they are TRYINGā¦as they run out of town on their next ābreakā.
Well aside from it being one of Kentuckyās.most perplexing creatures, this particular genus knows that it wonāt get called out for these actions.
Or she could be like Angus King and become Maineās second independent senator.
Everything is a āshell gameā with McTurtle.
Sorry. Couldnāt stop myself.
I think tying any law to the no-fly list (which has even flagged a dangerous 18-month-old terrorist toddler) is a non-starter. There are just too many problems with the list.
Universal background checks OTOH is at least a start.
What a nasty NRA cocksucker. I hate him with the intensity of a thousand suns. May the ghosts of the shredded Sandy Hook Victims haunt him in his sleep
Also an acceptable alternative.
Now that Iāve learned what spencersmom got for her birthday last February (Scaliaās dirt nap) I now know what I want for mine ā a Mitch-In-A-Ditchā¢.
Are you listening, you mutant human-terrapin POS? Make my dreams come true.
Wait. We can make requests? Iāve got one coming up in October.
Anyone want to suggest what I should ask for? Iāll accept suggestions before I execute my wish.
A Trumpster-In-A-Dumpsterā¢?
If the No Fly List isnāt any good, why does it persist? I strongly suspect that itās actually unconstitutional, but be that as it may, if itās good enough to protect the flying public, itās good enough to protect the public on the ground from impulse firearms purchases. And yes, universal background checks.
