He wanted to give corporate welfare to gun manufacturers? beam me up scottie Jan 2016 #63

No, even Inigo Monyoya would recognize Corporate Welfare when he sees it. Agnosticsherbet Jan 2016 #64

Actually if you were paying attention you would know why he voted for the PLCAA. beam me up scottie Jan 2016 #66

Ah, but even Sanders must recognize that the result of the bill was Corporate Welfare Agnosticsherbet Jan 2016 #69

It wasn't a mistake. beam me up scottie Jan 2016 #72

The result was to protect the profits of Corporations and it wasn't a mistake? Agnosticsherbet Jan 2016 #74

His reasons for voting for the PLCAA weren't a mistake. beam me up scottie Jan 2016 #79
