Democrats Under Siege

The networks won't be reporting much of this, but it's fun to watch the Democrats unraveling.

GOP Forces House Democrats To Pull DC Voting Bill (Via Drudge)

House Democrats pulled a bill to grant voting rights to Washington, D.C., after Republicans offered a motion that would repeal the gun ban for the District.

The move is a clear signal that Democrats have lost control of the House floor on the voting rights issue after minority Republicans presented the Democratic majority with a politically unpalatable motion that their conservative members would be forced to support for fear of angering the gun rights community.

Fifty-two Democrats voted with Republicans on a similar measure to repeal the gun ban in 2004. That would be more than enough support for Republicans to add a repeal to the voting rights bill - something a majority of Democrats would vehemently oppose.

Republicans have taken great pride in offering motions to recommit during their time in the minority, an often over-looked legislative procedure that has allowed them to amend various bills on the House floor.

Meanwhile, the Communist hags from Codepink, who recently camped outside Nancy Pelosi's home, now plan to invade her office. Doesn't this idiot have any security?

Allahpundit seems to be enjoying things.
