Another Good Wrap Up

I got busy on Friday and Saturday so I just got around to watching the Shields and Brooks segment recorded on a very weird news day Friday when Boston was still locked down. 

Their comments on the defeat of the gun control background checks though are what really interested me -- I don't think it was 'political structure' as much as it was floods of NRA money to certain pockets.  Since the Senate just voted against the wishes of 90% of the American people so the Senators could keep their place at the pig trough....I don't think this is over yet.  Particularly since we should start seeing some hard facts from the Centers For Disease Control (CDC)  now that President Obama has restarted their research into one of the biggest health plagues in the US (other than health insurance companies) -- guns.
