    You really think that the Dems are going to get a 60 vote majority in the Senate to get cloture to pass a gun control bill? Do you understand how the Senate works?

    If you don't like it, change the Constitution.

    The vast majority of every western nation doesn't allow for abortion after 20 weeks...... (many don't allow it after 12 weeks). Your party definitely isn't following Europe on that, why should they on guns?

    I see you are ignorant of the rules of the senate. I am not surprised.

    Still waiting for a reason to take you seriously

    That ends debate, you still need a supermajority to override a veto.

    Only if a supermajority of the Senate votes in approval of changing the rule.

    Based on past posts that goes well past the U.S. Senate.

    With a supermajority of the senate.
    How can a well-educated, highly-intelligent man of the world such as yourself not know this?

    More reason why the Senate needs to go, it's completely anti majorian allowing about 6% of the voters to stop rules of the majority.

    You must be ignorant of the fact 13 states can keep this from happening, and the 13 states most likely to do so contain about 7% of the population.

    How can you be so ignorant of the fact there's nothing you can do about it?

    Yea, if you don't mind eating produce that some picker just a dump next to or peed on, then who knows what was sprayed on it during the vegetation period or how many illegals lived on top of the load as it made it across the border.

    Yup that's going to be some real tasty veggies and as a result lot of people will be spending hours on the loo launching the next rocket, while bending over and filling the trash can with puke. .

    Great idea.

    And consider once you eliminate Florida's winter crop, your produce prices will double or more depending on shipping distance and will be no where as fresh.

    "It's dark," said lettuce picker Gilberto Rodriguez, 32. "There are lights at the bathrooms, but sometimes they're far away."

    "Those conditions lead some labor advocates to wonder whether growers are unwittingly encouraging workers to relieve themselves in out-of-the-way corners of the fields."

    "Every day new cases come into our offices — and as agriculture "modernizes," labor abuses evolve as well. Pesticide exposure is a daily risk. The incidence of sexual abuse in the fields is higher than ever reported."
