that would have blocked people on the no-fly list from getting a gun. It was also defeated.

I did love the sit-in, however! - :) It made my day.

Since Obama has said he will ignore the Supreme Court ruling - that his immigration plan is

ant-Constitutional and plans to ignore it, does that mean we the people can ignore laws we don't like?

Ignoring the separation of powers again. This kind of - stuff used to be impeachable,

How come people in Kentucky are jailed for not obeying the Supreme - Court but Obama isn't?

The President ignoring the Supreme Court just like he ignored Congress in breaking the law in the first place.

this is never a win-win for Democrats.

Louie Gohmert tried to tell them it's not about guns, it's about militant Islam, but they weren't listening.

Gun control is a losing issue for democrats... let’s hope they run on it! The last time Al Gore tried this he even lost his own state.

Funny, when the Republicans did something similar - Nancy Pelosi turned off the

"When Republican Sen. Ted Cruz (Texas) performed his highly-publicized filibuster against the Affordable Care Act, “all the focus was on him being obstructionist, even though what he was doing was within the Senate rules.” Kurtz

There you have it, media bias as usual.

This is insane. Ted Kennedy was on the no fly list at one - time. Someone with the same name

There are so many things wrong with the no-fly list it makes sense that this would be defeated. It would have been struck down by the Supreme Court later anyway.

Don't forget, owning guns is a right protected by the Constitution. Flying in airplanes is not. People retain their civil rights until they are convicted of a crime. You can be put on the no-fly list without ever being convicted of anything.

Out of curiosity... Was Mateen on the no-fly list? Were the San Bernardino shooters?

Collins bill was so bad even the ACLU opposed it. - NM

It's going to a committee. Why? Do they really need to study this bill? It's very simple.

In fact, the Senate is counting on raising $120 billion in new taxes over the next 10 years, the majority of which will come from the middle class. Another $30 billion is expected to roll in from the actual tax on insurance plans, but far more comes from wages. "This is a big tax on the middle class," said Douglas Holtz-Eakin, former director of the Congressional Budget Office, noting that 95 percent of people with the so-called Cadillac plans make under $250,000.
