Yep and assuming he signs it (he certainly will), it goes into effect on Feb. 10, 2010.

Sarah Brady is not happy, which puts a smile on my face! :hurry:
Chas.
I wonder what we can do to rub her nose in it...I mean, I am all for doing that because I am a very vindictive and mean person... ;-)
You could always send her a thank you note.
Tell her how you appreciate how her killing of a rather weak rule made room for an even better one. We couldn't have done it without her organizations help. Their efforts on educating the public and our Congress is having a positive effect.

GOA doesn't seem to be shy about taking credit for this one. While I'm sure they have been supportive of this bill, this just whole thing smells, taste and feels like the NRA.

It still has to cross the desk of someone who would veto this in a New York minute...
Or is that a Chicago minute now? ;-)
There just is no way he would veto it. Its attached to credit card control bill. Obama will never pass up a chance to garner more control of the banks. His progression to take control of private business is way too important to let a speed bump like more gun control get in his way.

Guns In the National Parks

Seems like its been brought up again. The Senate approved a Bill allowing National park carry.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Senate has approved a measure that would allow people to carry loaded guns in national parks and wildlife refuges.

Republican Sen. Tom Coburn of Oklahoma sponsored the amendment, which would restore a Bush administration policy allowing loaded guns in national parks.

A federal judge blocked the policy in March. The Obama administration said it would not appeal the ruling. The gun amendment was attached to a bill imposing restrictions on credit card companies. The amendment was approved 67-29.
I don't know what its chances are in the House.
