Thats all I found as well. Anyone have details? Frankly I am amazed they are doing this in September. :o Even if this a totally innocous thing, the GOP will ride this in every red and purple district. The NRA will flog it like a rented mule. "Deserate democrats plan last ditch gun grab before they're beaten! Contribute immediately to candidate X!". This is a freaking gift to the GOP.
FQ13 who has no idea what they're thinking as any anti gun bill they vote out of committee will never see a Senate vote.

Reform in the regulatory process.  In my mind that means AOWing suppressors and more full autos available. I know I need a suppressed Kriss

Reads like a "Gingrich/Rove" commitee. What do the DIMs think they are going to do other than further mobilize the GOP base? Are any Democrats (other than the usual suspects) even talking about gun control? Is there a single Dem constituency thats riled up about guns and wants action? No, and hell no. They want to focus on the war, the economy, jobs and the environment. Guns aren't going to make the average Dems' top 20 list. For the GOP? They are in the top ten if not the top 5 for a lot of Republican voters. What are these people thinking? ???
FQ13 who once again wonders how the Dems manage to score three touchdowns on themselves before the opposing team has made a first down. ???

They know nothing they decide here will have any have any effect before the elections  EXCEPT...

If they announce that in light of the recent SCOTUS rulings, the feel the Federal Firearms restrictions need to be reduced.   Might be a way to garner some votes for those in jeopardy.

From your mouth to God's ear Solus. Still, I think this isn't a Machiavellian plot. Its not a midnight gun grab or a way to have the Dem chorus sing "We like Guns" to help purple district Dems. Its just another proof of Will Rodgers' quote "I am a member of no organized political party. I am a Democrat". I am a student and teacher of politics, and I know bone headed stupidity when I see it. This is so spectacularly stupid that I would suspect enemy action if I thought the GOP was competetant enough to organize it.  Stupid is as stupid does. The Mascots are appropriate. For the GOP: The Elephant. An obese, grey, cantkerous creature that never forgets, and  is a relic of the pleisotcine era. For the Dems:  A Jackass. Well, enough said. The Libertarians: We might be be represented by the slovenly semi-venomous snake on the Gadsen flag, but given the alternatives? I'll take it. :-\
