Ruining dinner. so if this is the band-aid, good put it on the custom at least we wont believe in the salad. >> neil: ive never made a salad. heres what is really weird to me. that if we had known ahead of sequestration -- we spent a lot of time on this show, and during that, after that. that among the planned cuts were going right after air traffic controllers, right after beef inspectors, so we risk eating mrs. ed. obvious live that would be too good, as just a broadcaster, for me not to put u...

Theoretically given the definition of publication, any posting on the internet and posting on the bulletin board and newsletter, you have a gun for sale and that triggers a commercial sale which would trigger a background check. >> okay. why not? this mornings "new york times" throwing us through the tick tock of how an internet posting that somebody with a felony background -- this becomes a loophole. its this giant loophole to get around if you have a conviction and you technically wouldnt pas...

That are support i of the 2nd amendment. the focus is on passing what the president wants to sign is a strong bipartisan bill with enforceable background checks but it requires the republicans to not filibuster this and it requires 60 votes. when the president gave the state of the union with the newtown families in the audience they all got up to applaud. but when the families are not there they try to make it hard harder. as the president said, licks is the only reason it doesnt get done. >>ch...
