The assault weapons ban lost, as expected. But even the modest background check amendment couldn't make it past the Rethuglican (and some pseudo-Dems) filibuster threat. Thanks again, Harry Reid. Sad day for America.
UPDATE: Special shame on the four "Dems" who voted no: Baucus, Begich, Heitkamp, and Pryor (Reid voted no so that the bill could be brought up later). Primary them. Big kudos to the four Republicans who voted yes: Collins, Kirk, McCain, and Toomey.
