Pat sends us a link to the Washington Post<\/a> which tearfully reports that the new gun control regulations have failed to get the necessary number of votes in the Senate. And it went down in a bipartisan vote;<\/p>\n

The vote on the so-called Manchin-Toomey amendment was 54 in favor, 46 against \u2014 failing to reach the 60-vote threshold needed to move ahead. Four Republicans supported it, and four Democrats voted no.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Two screeching gun control harpies were removed from the chamber when they shouted “Shame on you!” to no one in particular.<\/p>\n

\u201cThey are an embarrassment to this country, that they don\u2019t have any compassion or care for people who have been taken brutally from their families,\u201d Maisch said as officers attempted to remove her from the building. \u201cI hate them,\u201d she said of the senators.<\/p>\n

\u201cWe\u2019re sick and tired of the death in this country and these legislators stand up there and think it\u2019s a bunch of numbers,\u201d said Haas, whose daughter, Emily, was wounded in the April 2007 shooting at Virginia Tech.<\/p>\n

\u201cIt\u2019s a shame, it\u2019s appalling, it\u2019s disgusting,\u201d she added.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

I guess they couldn’t find anyone who was pleased the bill was defeated, because they didn’t bother to interview anyone with that particular view. Oh, by the way, one of those Republicans who defected was – surprise! – John McCain;<\/p>\n

\u201cIs this a perfect solution? No. will it prevent all future acts of gun violence? Of course not,\u201d McCain said. \u201cWould it have prevented the most recent acts of gun violence? In all likelihood, no. But it is reasonable, and it is my firm conviction that it is constitutional.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

So, McCain just thought that he should “do something” irrespective of the result. Who needs him? Harry Reid, at the last minute decided that he’d vote for it, too, I know, you’re surprised;<\/p>\n

In a notable reversal, Reid said he would vote for a proposed assault weapon ban \u201cbecause maintaining a law and order is more important than satisfying conspiracy theories, who believe in black helicopters and false flags. I\u2019ll vote for the ban because saving the lives of police officers \u2013 young and old \u2013 and innocent civilians \u2013 young and old, is more important than preventing imagined tyranny.\u201d<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

The tyranny that Harry, the draft dodger, says is imagined, is right there in his mirror every morning.<\/p>\n

Joe Bite Me, probably one of the big reasons that bill failed, since he was riding herd on gun control and couldn’t keep his lips from flapping about the most ridiculous shit on the planet was fairly pissed;<\/p>\n

Biden reiterated that the proposal would not create or lead to the creation of a federal gun registry. \u201cNothing can be further from the truth,\u201d he said.<\/p>\n

Biden also dismissed suggestions that the measures would infringe upon people\u2019s constitutional right to bear arms.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere is no \u2013 zero \u2013 no infringement on the Second Amendment, not one single thing being proposed,\u201d he said.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Yeah, well, no one on the planet believes a thing you’re saying anymore, Bite Me. You’re a punch line. You should resign. After Sandy Hook, gun control was a slam dunk and the president guaranteed it’s failure by putting Bite Me in charge of it.<\/p>\n

What a wet firecracker. Yeah, and if the Left wants to blame someone, blame Biden and the other morons who thought they had something to contribute to the debate, but they were uninformed and downright ignorant and dishonest. Blame the inflated statistics and polls. Blame Bloomberg for being a rich guy trying to shove his personal ignorance down our collective throat. The soft drink ban in NYC contributed to this failure as much as anything. Blame Mark Kelly for trying to deny stuff for the rest of us while buying the same stuff for himself. <\/p>\n

The gun grabbers showed their collective ass throughout the “national discussion” and no real American wanted to be seen as part of the ignorant, hypocritical crowd who wanted to disarm America while clinging to their own guns. And now, despite the failure of the legislation, the Democrats are going to pay for their lies to our face next November. Now they know why the Clinton Gun Ban wasn’t renewed last decade. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
