"Whatever gun control measures clear the Senate, they are likely to face a more challenging path in the House, where many Republicans have vowed to oppose any gun restrictions."

Translation 1: DOA

Translation 2: We need more Republicans!

VAN SUSTEREN, FOX News: (on Paul Ryan) People think of him as hawkish on the budget, on expenses, but he voted for TARP. He voted for the auto bailout, voted for two stimulus in '08, voted against the '09 -- February '09 President Obama stimulus. How does -- I mean, how does he explain those, or I mean, how does -- politically, how does he sell that?

BOEHNER: I mean, I think that he's a practical conservative. He's got a very conservative voting record, but he's not a knuckle-dragger, all right? He understood that TARP, while none of us wanted to do it, if we were going to save -- save our economy, save the world economy, it had to happen. I wish we didn't have to do it, either, but he understood that.

This Knuckle Dragger has no faith in the House leadership and I have a long list of disappointments to show why.

where can I buy a gun on the internet that does not have a back ground check.

Most of us opposed to background checks object on the grounds that it is a burdensome intrusion.

You seem more concerned with what a background would reveal.
