re: #15 goddamnedfrank

Idea: Everyone does agree that straw purchases are a problem (even the NRA does), so perhaps the president should ask Congress for ideas. Or someone from within the GOP could pick up that ball and run an idea on their own. If its an issue, think about for a couple months then propose ways to deal with it.

Played right: Nobody gets a political beating, it becomes much riskier to be a straw buyer, everyone gets a decent night’s sleep. Bit of incumbent protection inherent in it, but that would appeal to the careerism of Members of Congress.
