kabloosh says:I figured when I voted for Obama he would be too busy defending his healthcare bill and focusing on other things that gun control would be on the back burner.

Guess you figured that wrong ,huh ?
Not much of a GOP fan either. They are not called the stoopid Party for nothing.
But what did you think a Chicago commie would do when he got the chance ?
Ivan knows commies.

At this point,we should take whatever help we can get,even from squishy Repubs like Graham.

The BIG advantage the Demoncats have over the Republitards is the Dems know how to enforce Party discipline.
Remember the so called Health Care bill to Law ? This will be no different,in fact restrictive gun laws are the Holy Grail for the anti Liberty pukes that inhabit (primarily) the Democrat party.
Look at how quick "I love guns " Senator Joe from West Va caved in.
There will be lots of arm twisting and promises made.

There will be Repub defections too ! The Repubs need to understand that we will toss them out of office and replace them with better Repubs or even lousy Dems if they betray us.
Better a Dem in office that we know is against us than a Repub that stabbed us in the back !
