    doesn't really matter - either way we're screwed, it only matters as to which party has the most Vaseline to hand out. The repubs cut back obviously and the dems are all butt hurt - hope the house can fix that problem now.

    The Democratic House will be slightly more useless than the Republican House under Ryan, so we might not notice the change.

    Nothing will be passed for the next two years. Really shows a flaw in our system tbh.

    That's a feature. Gridlock is highly underrated.
    Fair poont for most cases, but we might actually need to legislature if we get a serious recession in the next couple years.

    Kids these days.




    Well, now I think of it, I watched a male college-classmate weep over the results of the 1994 midterms.
    I go to a TUFF aggie retard school and that was definitely not happening here.

    Ann Richards was 10x the man Cruz is.

    We are in violent agreement here.

    Random election night thoughts.

    I-1639 ensures I will never live in Washington again. I would have never moved back there anyway. WA hates freedom.

    Fourth time in history the party with the presidency picked up seats in the Senate. YUGE win for Ol' Orange.

    Narrow loss in the House ensures 2 years of total gridlock and absolute hilarity in the Tug.

    Best part? The divided government shitshow that is about to unfold practically guarantees my 2020 candidate polls better than ever before. I present to you, your newly elected world ending cataclysm:



    Mixed result of the night? Has to be Ted Cruz winning. I mean, Beto sucked hard, and I could never vote for him on principle (abolish ICE, free healthcare for all), but man I would have been tempted with my intense loathing of Ted Cruz. Has their ever been a more smarmy shithead than Ted Cruz? Hard to imagine.

    Narrow loss in the House was expected, and will no doubt provide much humor in here. Moar Nancy Pelosi and Maxine Watters? LMFAO! It's going to be fun watching these two party leaders screeching loons.

    Picking up seats in the Senate was absolutely Yuge. Two more years to positively affect the courts, continued progress on international trade deals, and a built in check on "blue wave" congressional dims attempts to grab guns, increase taxes, repeal current tax cuts, replace private insurance with single payer, impeach!!11!! impeach !!!11!!!! impeach !!!!111!1!! .... and so on.

    Question @Swaye what exactly is in 1639 that would prohibit you from moving to Washington?

    A look into his comment history on HCH. I could say that about almost all people here, including myself.

    Ted Cruz sucks so bad but somehow the Irish guy pretending to be Mexican was just as pathetic.

    It does crack me up that hondo and his ilk want the guy who can't even beat one of the most loathed guys around to run for president.

    De facto registration is number 1.

    25 dollar "fee" to execute a constitutional right.

    New and additional "background check" just wasted resources and government bloat.

    10 day waiting period is onerous.

    Pretty much the entire thing sucks ass if you think personal liberty is a thing.
    It is what it is.. Reality is the changes are minimal. I don't like increasing the age to 21 for "assault rifles". But other than that, they didn't take any guns and the changes can help reduce violence with guns.

    Mandated training, for a constitutionally protected right.
    Getting the D-lO-fucking-L involved
    Making lawful owners criminally liable in the event a criminal breaks into your house and steals your firearms and does criminal shit with them

    You don't like firearm ownership. Fine. But don't be so willfully dumb to say the changes are minimal.
    Show me where that is true....

    I enjoy guns. I also think there's reasonable controls we can put in place to reduce the number of innocent lives that are killed. One of them is holding gun owners accountable.

    Beto outspent Ted 70 million to 33 million

    Ted is a serial killer

    Beto is a rock star

    Ted won

    By all means Beto 2020

    By the way any comment from our too much money in politics crowd? Money doesn't equal wins

    Texas votes red. Water is wet. Why are you guys acting like this was an upset?

    Conceded, there is more gray area in the text than the summary I read last night:
    (d) The prohibited person's access to the firearm was obtained
    as a result of an unlawful entry, provided that the unauthorized
    access or theft of the firearm is reported to a local law
    enforcement agency in the jurisdiction in which the unauthorized
    access or theft occurred within five days of the time the victim of
    the unlawful entry knew or reasonably should have known that the
    firearm had been taken.


    However, the fact that "result of an unlawful entry" is written in as an exception to a law shows the intent of the authors.

    And this is a great line: "(6) Nothing in this section mandates how or where a firearm must be stored." King County prosecutors going to have tons o' fun with that.

    I take Ted Cruz like I do listening to Bill Walton doing basketball games. Smarmy is totally his schtick. He knows he is full of bullshit but he shovels it out like a motherfucker. Respect.
