Do ninety percent of Americans agree on anything? How can he say that with a straight face. He stood behind the "dad" speaking for ALL of the parents looking like someone had taken his lollipop.

You can't get 90% of Americans to agree that the sky is blue or water is wet. . .

Of course, with these votes on record, the antis know exactly who to strong arm or bribe before the actual bill is voted on.

That is true, but so do we. My two idiotic senators from VA are on record as being dirt bags. VA is very pro-second amendment.....let us see what kind of hammer we can throw in their elections.

They're in a position to offer political favors and appointments that we cannot.

Hopefully, holding them responsible for votes cast continues to be enough.

Ok I am all confused. I must be a low information voter. My liberal friends are extremely upset on Facebook. They are saying things like I can't say what I want cause facebook will suspend me and things like that.

How is a bill defeated with more yes than no's? Or is this to see if they can stop a filabuster, so it requires 60 votes. There was a bill with Cruz's name is that our Cruz?

Is it all over or does the Obama bribery start now? You know like on Obamacare. You get a new air force base if you change your vote.

I figured the assault weapons ban was dead on arrival, but is the background check bill also now dead?

Analysis please, thanks.
