ROBERT FARAGO: McCarthy and Reid Slip High Cap Mag Ban into FAA Re-Authorization Bill. ?Republican?

By Glenn Reynolds

ROBERT FARAGO: McCarthy and Reid Slip High Cap Mag Ban into FAA Re-Authorization Bill. “Republicans are trying to tack a health care reform amendment onto the FAA re-authorization bill. Democrats are retaliating by adding the high cap mag ban proposed by Carolyn McCarthy (10 years for 11 rounds or more).”

I agree that this is politically stupid on their part — the last thing the Dems need is to wake up the gun-rights folks between now and 2012. (Thanks to reader Carl Fumante for the link).

UPDATE: Not true? This may be the result of a faulty entry in Thomas. Or not. Stay tuned.
