    The fat lady is unfortunately warming up, but she hasn't started singing yet. We've got to kill five days, some how, some way.

    If you see any way to stall this thing long enough for the clock to expire, I'm all ears. But I wouldn't be surprised if the Senate simply accepts it the way it is just to ram it through and get it signed by tomorrow (or as soon as O'Malley can organize a big victory signing event). Not to be pessimistic, I just don't think we have enough support in the Senate to even stall this thing with a filibuster or the like.

    Now, the good news, what little of it there is: it's not yet over. All of this talk about "2014" has to wait until April 9. The bill still has to be reconciled with the Senate's version before there's a bill for O'Malley to sign.

    By some miracle the bill could die... But it is never too soon to talk about 2014! These people have to go, it never should have gone this far.

    Not meaning to ruffle feathers, i am Pi$$ed O%% about the BS is all. we all want to know what is next step, who voted for what, and what the amendments are.

    On a lighter note - thanks to all the people who went to house and senate and testified for us, thanks to the people at MSI, NRA and all MDS participants in these threads and showing up in Annapolis. i was there on 4 occasions myself, thanks to all and we appreciate it.
    So what is the next step what can we do? (nothing i know)

    i (we) do appreciate all the hard work, the MSI leader has been silent on MDS the last few days and we want to know what he thinks now is all.

    He thinks the same as all the rest of us think. WTF???? Give it a rest man. Let him get back on his feet. Just because MSI doesn't let YOU know when YOU want information doesn't mean something isn't being worked on. I am sure there are people working on this situation as we sit here and type. There's noo reson to make a statement just to make a statement. Give them some time to digest what happened today. Have a coke and a smile and you know the rest. Now is NOT the time to come unglued. Remember it's a war. Today was just ONE battle in that war.

    Beat me to it...

    The anger is understandable, but really... who didn't know there would be something passed? Warm up your voices, clear out your inboxes, pay your phone bills... There will be a lot to do.

    But, be real... they only have 5 days to get this cobbled together. Yeah, they'll burn every candle they have to do it, but it's not a guarantee.

    Should it get through and signed, then the real work starts.

    But seriously, folks... put away the torches and pitchforks. We may be moving to Box 2 soon, but there are still a lot of planks to be laid before we even think we need to get to 3 (much less 4)

    :thumbsup::thumbsup: Very well put, Mr H!:thumbsup::thumbsup:

    They need to be afraid that something they did in their past is going to be discovered and bite them in the ass. Post it on their facebook page and use the power of the first amendment to regain our second amendment. If they want to take our rights away then i have no hesitation in watching their political career, marriage and self respect all go down the shitter.

    Is there a list of people we should find dirt on? I will do all I can to bring them down.

    Plan D? Not worth the hassle.
    i (we) do appreciate all the hard work, the MSI leader has been silent on MDS the last few days and we want to know what he thinks now is all.

    And if he was able he would do just that. He is a fine leader and he knows that he is needed. But we need to realize that he is like all of us human.

    Patrick please get well, but know that we were well lead in your absence, it self the mark of a true leader fear not, and tend to your health.

    How about a list of Senators that we need to focus on. Fence Sitters, afraid of losing their seat come next election. Let's see how they voted on the initial bill.

    Actively looking right now.
