So this speculation that the "super congress" would attempt to legislate gun control (which is entirely outside its mandate—which is to find a way through the budget crisis) is exactly that: speculation, and it is not based on the facts.
It is a fact that boneheads like Kerry would try if they thought they could, but this committee is merely that....a committee. It isn't really a super congress.
Agreed, I think these folks just huff and puff about stuff like this so people get scared and send them $20 to fight for the cause. Not unlike the NRA.
