Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-Nev.) said last week that he does not intend to bring gun control legislation to the floor.....

Funny that this reporter only mentions Dingy Harry and the Senate prospects for passage of these gun/ammo grabbing bills, but doesn't mention the prospects for passage in the GOP controlled House!!!

Maybe the reporter forgot to mention that the House must also approve these bills for them to become law. Or more likely, didn't want to ruin this puff piece article for gun grabbers by pointing out that these bills are DOA in the GOP controlled House.

I would be suprised if Mccarthy's ammo-banning bill even makes it to a House committee hearing before this Congress ends it's term in January, 2013 or if Boehner just tables the bill himself using his authority as Speaker to do this and no action is taken on it at all. Either way, this bill is DOA in the House - the House GOP leadership is not so stupid as to allow this bill to see the light of day, in my opinion.

One would like to think so.

But one wonders if one can ever be completely certain of the intelligence of the GOP leadership.

Next thing you know, they might be funding the HHS regulation requiring all insurance plans to pay for contraception, abortifacients and abortions...
