The fly in the ointment is this: The Edward Kennedy Memorial <insert bill name> Act.

Does anyone here think that there would be any opposition to anything with that name on it after he croaks?

Remember the things he tried to attach to the lawful commerce in firearms act? We discussed it at length in L&P and those discussions are still out there for research for those willing to do so.

They will hoist anti-firearms legislation before he assumes room temperature and everyone will jump on it and give it the sympathy vote. Ted would've wanted it that way, ya know.
