President Obama moved Thursday to put the muscle of the White House and his network of supporters behind a gun control package tracking toward the Senate floor, calling on voters to pressure Congress into backing it as the proposal runs into resistance on Capitol Hill.

Funny how Obama NEVER mentions the Senate, who already killed the “assault weapons” bill..


Funny how the Congressional GOP never mention we have a DEM Senate and a DEM Prezzy. No effort to link them in their loser strategy.

Why don’t pro 2nd amendment congressional Republicans give a similar press conference surrounded by people who have defended themselves and their families from predetors by having guns and being able to use them. Two can play this game.

The shame is that our country has sunk so low as to elect this jackass president, twice.

Notice how the Sandy Hook supposed details appear all at once today?

You can bet those details have been manipulated for desired anti 2nd amendment purposes.

See how that works, Obozo is out flapping his lips to take away more liberty as he flanks himself with “moms”.

WTF is wrong with this guy? He reminds me of the little kid in school who gets his BIGGER friend to beat up another kid. If I saw another world leader giving a speech flanked by a bunch of teachers, the word ‘weak’ would immediately come to mind.


He’s a Bully and Thug.

Shame is appropriate when you do something wrong, not when you do something right. Not passing guntrol is THE RIGHT THING TO DO.

In the long run, NOT passing gun control will save many, many lives, as well as our way of life.

Or if he looked in the mirror.

This is one very evil man.

It’s a shame Obama keeps taking vacations.

It’s a shame Obama keeps raising our national debt.

It’s a shame Obama doesn’t secure the borders.

It’s a shame America has Obama for a president.

To the question Sarah Palin posed in 2008,
What does a community organizer do?

Just what Obamais doing now and has done for the last 5+ years. Threaten, ridicule, obfuscate, deflect, etc, etc.

But they don't lead.

The House should just pass a bill making any crime involving a gun a federal crime with a minimum 20 year sentence. The Dems will never go for that because it would lock up a whole lot of their voter base. Then we would have a great illustration about who is “serious” about gun crime and who isn’t.

I don’t think that will work. Congress has no shame.

Saw a bit of this earlier today. He looked really mad because he knows he’s not going to get his way. It was great.
