U.S. Rep. Joe Donnelly, D-Indiana, who will replace retiring GOP Sen. Dick Lugar, told CNN said he's committed to looking at legislation to address the shooting.

He's a democrat. He has to conform to the party's leadership. The only consolation is he'll probably be no more disappointing than his predecessor.

Damn, we shoulda voted for Lugar...

"Who would have ever thought, in America, or anywhere in the world, that children would be slaughtered?" he said on CNN's "Amanpour." "You know, that–it's changed me."

Umm, I would? Oh wait, that's because I've seen it in person in countries run by fanatical regimes built on violence, fear, and an iron fist. It changed me, too, moron. That's why I carry and maintain arms against all enemies, foreign....and domestic.

These a$$clowns need to stand over a mass grave of UNARMED civilian men, women and children at some point in their pathetic lives.

They are. They're just too stupid to realize it. The Sandy Hook victims who were forced to live in a "gun free" zone.

Good old Joe. He was against Obamacare, until he voted for it. He was against gun control, until he got elected to the Senate.

 

[Birds Away]

...and he's still to the right of Lugar.

We all need to remind Joe that Indiana LARGELY voted against Obama. Indiana is LARGELY pro 2A. He has no mandate towards gun control regardless of the emotional state of the nation right now.

I know it's in purple, but he wasn't running against Lugar. I just wonder how the guy he was running against would take this, but we will never know.

I just wish we could get two senators at the same time that voted for and by the state of Indiana.

Joe's unreachable until January, you'll just have to wait If anybody has an email for him, I'd sure appreciate it.

How do you tell the difference between Donnelly and Lugar? Certainly not by voting records.

Didn't you know that? Ever since American Gladiator went off the air, the country just hadn't been the same....purple implied, of course.

That's ok because those children were entrusted to a bunch of kooks. Additionally, they set the place on fire and burned everyone alive, not our hero ATF/FBI agents. and that armored vehicle was simply a vehicle of love and peace.

Mourdock shot us all in the foot with his big mouth.

Yeah, Donnelley will vote for whatever bans come before him. On the bright side, Lugar would have already been leading the chase to get another ban passed after last Friday.

The question mark is Dan Coates. Lugar convinced him to change his vote and betray all of us back in 1994. Garrison said he'd learned his lesson when trying to get him elected two years ago. I am not confident that he will do the right thing if and when these bans are on the floor for a vote.

Coats said that voting for the AWB was a mistake that he vowed he won't make again. I'm going to write him to remind him of his promise. We'll see soon enough how well he keeps his word.

My prediction is that he'll exploit the murders of the babys in Connecticut as an excuse to renege on that promise.

I hope I am wrong.

 

[abnk]

I don't believe Coats will make that mistake again. And Donnelly just said he's committed to look at legislation to address the shooting. Looking at legislation to address issues is his job. I may be wrong, but I don't see anything to cry wolf about.
