No gun control law has ever been overturned as un-Constitutional.

Not one, not ever.

Reads as equally stupid as the last one. Definition of "assault" weapon is the same, results would be the same. All sizzle, no steak.

Won't pass in this Congress.

Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains sit lightly upon you, and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen!

I'm okay with campaign finance reform, but term limits?

Not so much.

Term limits is a nice way of saying voters are too stupid to recognize corrupt politicians.

Well, whether you say it nice or rude and blunt, it's the truth. Look at the Fords of the Memphis/Shelby County Tennessee area. More examples are VERY easy to find, if you just look.

Getting elected even to the 1st term is solid evidence of corruption so vile it is akin to treason

the department of justice just finished a ten year study on guns and the second amendment...

interesting things were that they decided that "the people" meant just that... everyone... they cited 16 other examples where the word "people" was used.

next... all the studies they coulod obtain showed that no gun control law anywhere in the states has ever been effective in reducing crime.

It is true that no gun control law has been overturned but no court has ever ruled on the second... both sides are leary.   If the issue is forced I want it to happen under Bush and a supreme court he helps appoint.

yep... you would think that politicians who wasted  so much time and effort on bills that no one wants and that do no good at all would be kicked out on their butts...

without term limits this will never happen tho.   no one wants to lose a state politician who has achieved power to manipulate funding better than some junior member.

95% of incumbents are re-elected, couple that with gerrymanderd districts (safe) and you end up with a govt run by incompetents.

yes , voters are stupid. voters want the budget ballanced but also want "govt funding" for their part of the country.

 voter::"oh please mr congressman, don't close the military base, it's important to my cities economy"

congressman:: "i will  fight to keep this base open, it's important to my districts economy, and my re-election"
