OBAMA CALLING SENATORS
The Hill ^ | Amie Parnes

Posted on 04/09/2013 1:24:33 PM PDT by JohnPDuncan

President Obama has been calling Republican and Democratic senators on Tuesday to discuss the gun-control vote, a White House official said.

Obama is expected to reach out to between half a dozen to a dozen senators in all, the official said.

The White House would not provide the call list, so it's unclear whether Obama is reaching out to Republican senators who have promised to filibuster gun-control legislation.

As part of the lobbying effort, Obama is telling senators that gun-control legislation "deserves a vote," the official said. The president is expected to reiterate his message in recent days that Congress has an obligation to the victims of the school shooting in Newtown, Conn., to consider new restrictions on guns.

He's getting desperate. Keep up the pressure. He might not have the votes to break the filibuster. No one seems to know yet.

He’s not taking any chances. It’s been pummel, pummel, pummel since December.

This 5 minute video ties Obama to Bill Ayers, the Weather Underground, and their plan to "eliminate" 25 million "bitter clingers" who just won't accept progressive "reeducation."

For a jerk that said he didn’t want to take guns away he has a strange way of showing it.

Jim, can you sticky something on the sidebar asking readers to contact their senators? We have 1 day to work on them. No one knows if he has the votes yet. The New York Times says “its close”.

I didn't realize until listening to Hannity today that obama, the president of all the US, the all-wise and all caring messiah and protector of the children, .... snubbed the family of a little 6 yr old boy killed at Sandy Hook because the father supports the NRA call to put guards in schools

the family was not invited to join Barry in his personal airborne political pimpwagon formerly known as Air Force One. Oh I lost a child and I know how tender is the skin of that family right now and their grief compounded immeasurably at at being shunned by the PRESIDENT OF THE US for his own selfish petulant reasons. Imagine.

Oh but Barky is all about lecturing the GOP to “keep politics out of it”

Our nation does not deserve him

Sorry, we don’t have stickies. If the thread cycles off, just post a thread II, then III, etc., etc.

One of those senators should tell Obama that a student at Loan Star College in Cyrus, Texas just went on a rampage and slashed 12 students, some of them quite badly.

One student said something like "if only we had had a gun."

Guess assault and scary-looking knives should be outlawed.

Article in on Yahoo News and I think CNN. I don't know how to post articles correctly so this is best I can do.

What happens if the Rs don’t pick up the phone? What if
they were at a movie or something?

What DOES happen if you refuse a call from POSHITUS?

Everything animate and inanimate “deserves a vote” according to this guy. He picked up that charming phrase and is abusing it to death as he walks around Congress anytime he feels like it. “The suckers deserve a nice little vote and then I do whatever I want.”

And he called us Bible-clinging gun-clutchers while he was at it.
