A "poison pill" is an ammendment to a bill that makes it so unpalpable to those who in support of the original bill that they vote to kill it.

In this case, Feinstein managed to attach an AWB extension to the Gun Manufacturer's Immunity Bill, which caused those supporting the original bill to vote against it. (90-8)

"Of all tyrannies, a tyranny exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It may be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end, for they do so with the approval of their own conscience." – C.
