I found it amusing that after putting on that show with the parade of clowns and chanting that they just adjourned and went home until July 5.

Can't let anything interfere with that 4th of July BBQ!

I guess it wasn't THAT important. :rofl:

Their family called and said "cut that shit out and get your ass home for the holidays".

It's amazing how much break they get.  Well, I guess when you write the laws that control your pay, work schedule, etc, that's what you get.

The reasonable man adapts himself to the world;
the unreasonable one persists in trying to adapt the world to himself.
Therefore, all progress depends on the unreasonable man.

In case you missed the premiere of the new series "Brain Dead," don't worry.  Looks like C-SPAN is running it all this week!

26 of those democrats are gun owners

Well, I'm sure that if any of them are entered onto a secret government list of prohibited persons by some bureaucrat, they will know the "right people" to talk to to have their name removed. You and I, not so much.

Someone on another thread just made the distinction between a "gun owner" and "an advocate for second amendment rights". The two don't necessarily overlap. For example, Mr. Espero.

just supports my view on gun owners that are gun grabbers.
