The gop wants the killing to continue unabated.. it's all working out so well.. why bother to keep

anyone from buying guns.. even known terrorists?

I hear President Obama is considering an EO for expanded back ground checks.

Thanks EarlG for highlighting and getting these facts out here.

"Senate votes to repeal key Obamacare provisions, defund Planned Parenthood"

And, the closeness..

Senators voted 52-47 to pass the bill. Two moderate Republicans — Susan Collins of Maine and Mark Kirk of Illinois — joined Democrats in opposing the bill. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was absent.

I'm so glad Mark is okay and heartbroken about those who were

right in the path of terror.

You blew off steam very well, BlueCali.. I felt as if I were right there with you. I've been thinking about those poor people and their families all day today.

Exactly.. the significance. "Senate votes to repeal key Obamacare provisions, defund Planned

Parenthood."

And, the closeness..

Senators voted 52-47 to pass the bill. Two moderate Republicans — Susan Collins of Maine and Mark Kirk of Illinois — joined Democrats in opposing the bill. Sen. Bernie Sanders, I-Vt., was absent.

It's a total surprise and has me grinning wide!

You know Sec of Labor Thomas Perez must have thought long and hard before he decided to make the unprecedented(AFAIK) move to endorse Hillary in the primary!

Perez added, "In the coming months, I look forward to hitting the campaign trail to highlight the progress we've made as a nation, the unfinished business, and why Hillary Clinton is the fighter we need leading that effort."

Perez is the third Obama Cabinet member to endorse Clinton, joining Thomas J. Vilsack, the secretary of agriculture and a former governor of Iowa, and Julián Castro, the secretary of housing and urban development and a former mayor of San Antonio.

And, the second Latino Cabinet Member..

Perez served as Sec of Labor in Maryland when O'Malley was Gov.

Hillary is honoring Rosa Parks.. leave it to BS fans campaigning in his name to whine about that.

You think you're doing him a favor.. you're not.

Wonder if Rosa would have objected?



OH dear.. honoring the White House celebrating the SC decision on Gay Marriage!
