Democrats are gun dealers' best friend

NY Times:

Lines Out the Door and Strong Sales at Tampa Gun Show


As calls for gun bans intensify, a show continued in Tampa, Fla. Several sellers said they were on track to double their normal sales for a weekend even as some said they would support certain limits.
Just when sales were in decline after Obama left office the Democrats overplay their hand on a school shooting and reinvigorate the market for guns.

There is another irony to the attempts to blame the NRA for the shooting.  It now looks like a policy pushed by Obama and Eric Holder was responsible for the shooter not being in the database for background checks.  The school in Florida adopted their system of not charging juveniles for serious crims to keep their record clean.  They even gave the school money for going along with their scheme and apparently local law enforcement was also in on the scam.

That is the reason why no charges were filed for serious offenses in the 20 to 40 visits to the shooter's home.  Had there been charges for holding a gun to the head of his mom he would not have been able to buy the weapon used in the shooting.  The NRA had nothing to do Obama and Holder's screwy plan.  Will CNN hold a program where those two are accused of having "blood on their hands"?

Should Republicans go ahead and add Supreme Court Justices to head off Democrats

Washington Post: Some Democrats eye adding more justices to the Supreme Court to change its ideological bent The once-remote idea has gained the attention of liberals angered by the GOP push to remake the federal courts. Probably the easy way to defeat this court-packing scheme is for Trump to propose doing the same thing now.  It would lead to Democrat denunciations and claims that it would be wrong, thereby blowing up any attempt by them in the unfortunate event of Democrats winning a presidential election.

29 % of companies say they are unlikely to keep insurance after Obamacare

Conn Carroll: A new survey of 368 midsize to large companies found that 29% of them are considering terminating their active employee health care plans when Obamacare is full implemented in 2014. Only 71% of employers surveyed said they did not expect to drop their health coverage, while 20% said they did not know and 9% said they were planning to exit. The latest survey, conducted by Towers Watson, echoes an ealier survey by McKinsey & Co. finding that 30% of private-sector employers were planning to drop their employee health insurance coverage by 2014. When the Congressional Budget Office crunched Obamacare's spending numbers, they estimated that only 7% of employees currently covered by employer-sponsored plans would lose their plans. ... This means the cost of the health care fiasco will be hundreds of billions more than estimated by the CBO and Congressional Democrat. It is also clear that Obama's pledge that you could keep your health care plan if you wanted t

Bin Laden's concern about Zarqawi's remains

James Robbins: ... Bin Laden suggests that President Bush should allow Zarqawi’s body to be returned to his family in Jordan, but this is a matter that is up to the Jordanian government, which so far has not shown much interest in facilitating a homecoming. Bin Laden mocks King Abdullah II, calling him a Coalition minion, and asking “w hat scares you about Abu Musab after he’s dead? You know that his funeral, if allowed to happen, would be a huge funeral showing the extent of sympathy with the mujahedin.” A large crowd would definitely turn out, though most people would be on hand to demonstrate their anger and disgust. Last November’s hotel bombings in Amman , masterminded by Zarqawi, are still fresh in people’s memory, and mentioning them to Jordanians has the same visceral impact as memory of the 9/11 attacks does here. Jordan has adopted a zero-tolerance policy towards those who choose to mourn the country’s least favorite son, and four opposition members of parliament who paid con
