Whatever happened to...

[n2sooners]

I miss the days where both parties worked together for the common good.

Not me, that's how we got the bloated, deficit running government we have today. I'm glad we have at least part of a political party trying to put a stop to it.

And I don't think you should need a license to marry our carry.

That used to happen? < real question...

Yes for quite awhile Americans voted moderates into office and both parties worked together. There was some give and take and both parties accepted it.

Now nothing gets done. Party A is too busy trying to undermine anything that party B does. Party B gets mad and undermines what party A is trying to do. Nobody works together for the common good anymore.

Government doing nothing isn't always a bad thing.

It began with our Founding Fathers. Yeah, they argued but they worked for the good of this nation and I think it ended shortly before the Civil War when Henry Clay was no longer part of Congress.

So true and so sad.

So back to the original question, what was the number of that bill?

I'm not aware of a bill, but HJR 1026 is a constitutional amendment that, if passed, will be put on the ballot for the public to vote on in November. It strengthens the wording of our constitution with regard to our rights to keep and bear arms (including knives) that some have postulated could lead to permitless carry... Maybe...

Regardless, it is a step in the right direction

I heard it was from Senate Bill 1473 authored by that Dahm fellow. The article I read it from refers to a Piers Morgan that I'm not aware of and probably for good reason.

back to the thread drift : it all started when LBJ rammed thru "The Great Society". If you do some research you can find audio recordings of what he really called it. In the recordings he also quipped to a supporter "when we pass this we'll have their votes for life and no republican can vote against it and expect to be reelected."
To me, that doesn't sound like working together.?

Yeah, I could vote for a Gubernatorial candidate whose sold campaign promise was to "do nothing at all."
