Then amend the constitution or get the F out of the way. Man I hope he runs next year. Will allow a window for us to get another Republican into the senate.

NJSP. Buena barracks.

It took nine months for me this year, so that’s not really any different.

No one knows until the final version gets signed. The text can and almost definitely will change before it gets to Trump’s desk.

No, you did not sound defeatist at all. I mentioned you as another way of stating “man up”, because you are out there walking the walk.

That attitude right there is exactly what I am talking about.

It's already happening in Virginia. "Guessing" that free America doesn't care, and then having a defeatist attitude as a result, is a poison that will kill us all. Don't let the media, or anyone deter you from fighting. If you value the founding father's ideas, them man up (or even better, Mrs. Peel-up) and get out there and fight! Let them know they are on the wrong side of history by oppressing minorities and those who are not connected by preventing them from having the same protection the elites enjoy.

That's because like most everything they "think" about, their ideas are out of touch with reality.

Yep. Because NJ doesn’t think you can do it without blowing your neighborhood up. It’s incredible. Our lawmakers think we are all as dumb as they are.

The reps who are against this are the ones that need the calls the most. I will be letting Booker and Menendez know everyday that they are on the wrong side of history here.

Just because the mountain to climb to get this passed in the Senate is high, doesn't mean we give up. We have to push for a vote on this, keep their feet to the fire. It is true that a lot of Democrats are up for reelection in states that went for Trump. If they see the enthusiasm for this bill, and have in their head that if they vote against it they could lose their reelection bid and then their successor will vote for it the following year they will think very carefully about voting against it. We need to be make sure they feel that pressure.

Because the Republicans don’t change the rules, they take advantage of the changes the democrats put into place earlier.

And right on time there is a school shooting in New Mexico. [emoji35]

It’s a “wee bit”. No more, no less.

I am enjoying this small victory. Poured a dram of my favorite scotch!

That's why we have to keep the pressure on, and get on any forum you see misinformation and correct it!

No one knows.

A majority. That will not happen. The real vote should start in about 10 minutes. I would like to know who the one Republican is who has voted to send this back to committee!

On whether to send it back to committee. It will be going for the next 15 minutes. This vote will not pass. Then when that fails they will do a 5 minute vote on the actual bill.

Now they are voting for 15 minutes on whether to send it back to committee.

I've already started drinking. LOL

I like this guy.. Republican from Florida today during the debate.

Not a chance, the current Minnesota governor is a democrat.

Bill Pascrell Jr.

I still think they are voting on how long to debate it, etc. Not whether to pass it yet. These things don't move at any speed faster than a slugs pace.
