Terrorists in U.S. Buying Guns and Explosives Freely

Well...not exactly freely; I suspect they are having to paying cash. Nonetheless, the GAO reports

People named on the government's terrorism watch list have successfully purchased firearms hundreds of times since 2004, government investigators reported yesterday. In one case, a known or suspected terrorist was able to obtain an explosives license, the Government Accountability Office reported. The study found that people on the list purchased firearms 865 times in 963 attempts over a five-year period ending in February.

Who cares? This was last week's news. Another Repug has wierded out this week.

KNUCKLE BUMP OF THE DAY goes temporarily to Sen. Chris Dodd:

I believe that, when my daughters grow up, barriers to marriage equality for same-sex couples will seem as archaic, and as unfair, as the laws we once had against inter-racial marriage. And I want them to know that, even if he was a little late, their dad came down on the right side of history.

Who knows what his stand will be next week?

KNUCKLEDRAGGER OF THE DAY Nawwww - that would be a waste of perfectly good protons....would someone just bitch slap this wimp?
