Principles and Policies Podcast for 4/9/2013- Is The Senate A Mere Debating Society Or Does It Make Law?

Our Principles and Policies radio show for Tuesday April 9, 2013. Barry Sheets and Chuck Michaelis discuss a statement made by the increasingly obtuse Senator John McCain in which he claims to not understand why anyone would filibuster second amendment infringement (gun control) legislation when the purpose of the Senate is to debate things and vote to let people know where the Senate stands on issues. Huh? The Senate is NOT a debating society it is a law-making body.
