Hey, research is my specialty......

Vote on an amendment that would block the use of funds provided in the bill for the purpose of implementing, administering, or enforcing the settlement agreement between Smith & Wesson and the Justice Department.

HR 4871: Treasury-Postal Appropriation Bill for fiscal 2001

Vote on an amendment that would block the use of funds provided in the bill for the purpose of implementing, administering, or enforcing the March 17, 2000 settlement agreement between the Smith & Wesson gun manufacturing company and the Justice Department.

As part of the agreement, the manufacturer is required to immediately sell all of its guns with locks, which will be built into the weapons within two years, instruct dealers to complete a background check even if it takes more than 72 hours or the sale is taking place at a gun show, and ensure within two years that their guns cannot be operated by a child.

Thanks. Just as I figured, the "conservative Democrat" is a hypocrite in addition to being a philanderer and an obstructionist. Robert

Never thought I'd say this, but it doesn't matter what he thinks about guns.

At a very minimum, he has conducted himself without honor. He has lacked the decency and honesty required to be an American representative.

He could be the most pro-gun politician in history, and he should still resign for obstructing an official investigation.

In fact, he could be the most flag-waving, freedom-loving, decorated veteran, former LEO, Eagle Scout representative we've ever had, and his conduct would still cry for his resignation.

I'd rather have an honorable enemy than a dishonorable friend.

Don't look for him to resign anytime soon, unless he's wearing handcuffs while doing so. Next year he'll have his full twenty years in so he can collect full pension, ~$150,000 a year for the rest of his life.

ajaxinacan,

If Condit was:
the most flag-waving, freedom-loving, decorated veteran, former LEO, Eagle Scout representative we've ever had...

he wouldn't be cheating on his wife, lying to everyone, obstructing justice and generally acting like a liberal democrat.
