"Common Use doesn't mean ownership, it means use"... Umm... Wut?

Lol. If 30 million Americans own a certain firearm (I know its actually 3x or more higher) and only use it once a year, how is that not 30 million 'uses' and fitting of the term 'common use'. Does she really think that no one gets their firearms out of the safe?

Thats a new level of redefinition right there.

I wish he would have smiled and said: "Yes Senator, common in ownership and use. I go to the range weekly and your so called assault rifles are the most common rifles seen at the range... I think that qualifies as common." :lol:

I am just wondering, where these "hundreds" of school shootings, where "assault" rifles were used, occurred? Did I miss all of the news reports? I would challenge Feinstein, to produce a list of these hundreds, of cases, so that we can fully appreciate the magnitude, of this atrocity. :shock:

Booker didn’t actually break any rules. The Republicans on the Judiciary Committee worked with the George W. Bush library and the Justice Department overnight to clear the emails. The restrictions were waived early Thursday morning.

AS he probably expected, so he was simply grandstanding and being as disruptive as possible. (Any additional comments would be censored...)

While I think that what Booker did was despicable, those weren’t “classified” documents; they were “confidential” committee documents. There is a distinction. Grassley has already absolved Booker of any rule breaking ..... and there are still people who deny the existence of a “deep state”.

The up side to this incident is that Booker has set another precedent that democrats will come to regret. First, former majority leader Harry Reid did away with a rule preventing a simple majority vote to confirm. The GOP holds 51 seats in the senate. That didn’t used to be enough to confirm a SCOTUS justice. Thanks to Reid, it is now enough. So Kavanaugh WILL be confirmed. Now that Booker has set a new precedent for breaking committee confidentiality, republicans are free to do it any time they want to democrats ..... if they have the courage.

It used to be that democrats could break the rules to their advantage, but count on republicans NOT to break those rules....because conservatives believe rules to be useful, and at heart, all democrats are anarchists. But it is now time to fight fire with fire. Going forward, EVERY republican serving on a committee should release any and all confidential committee documents which are found to be inconvenient to democrats. Every. Time. And if democrats protest, republicans should simply smile, and cite the “Booker Precendent”.

No rules were broken. The Republicans and the Bush Library had the documents cleared for release early this morning.

Yeah, it's different if you are testifying, and defending your opinions, at that point you are expected to tell the truth, in fact you swear an oath to do just that. I would be livid, if the person asking the questions, told such a blatant lie. But then again, it's the left, they aren't held to the same standards as everyone else. :rules:
