Does that mean...can it be? Are there people in government who are still sane and responsible to their constituents?

The House is the people's house. It's the closest you may get to sanity in what they call the Federal govt.

Isn't this ultimately meaningless unless the Senate passes it too, and obama signs it? Or am I missing something?

Noticed that right away too. Don't look like very good reloads either. Resizing die isn't set right.

Wow, did not expect to see this. But awesome - I'll wander in to Walmart tomorrow to pick up a couple bricks of 22 that I'm sure will be on the shelf now, right? ;)

While I am one to say that the DHS has gone a bit overboard, the DHS ammo purchase isn't just for them, but is a line item that multiple agencies are pulling from...I don't see this going anywhere
