President Obama and the term 'lame duck' met for the first time.

Democrats who are facing tough primaires backhome have to consider their 'centrist' stands, and Obama will have more trouble getting his wishes done (Let's hope so).

The more tantrum Obama throws, the more ineffective he will be.

Hopefully AMMO prices will settle down so we can stock up for the second round.

RE :”President Obama’s gun control agenda was routed in the Senate on Wednesday, and Mr. Obama naturally blamed the National Rifle Association. The truth is that Mr. Obama invited this meltdown by assuming he could exploit the Newtown massacre to ram through a liberal wish-list that wouldn't have stopped the next mass murder. “

And shamelessly use those Newtown parents who in the end he did nothing for.

And yet the Libs over at the DUmp are proposing more cowbell.

It is a little hard to overstate how bad the administration got it’s butt kicked yesterday and just how much it will help republicans in general in 2014. If the left leaning senate couldn’t pass anything and the administration had to resort to emotional tactics then this is good news. But still we must remain on the alert. Sen Toomey, my Senator has some splainen to do though.

We have dead and injured in Boston and now Texas from explosions and Obama is upset about background checks. Go figure...

Before there’s a limit on the size of magazines, I want to see a limit on the size of pressure cookers. Who the heck needs a 1.6 gallon pressure cooker? No one should need anything over one gallon...

What I hope is that our constantly stating that what the left desires (disarming Americans) and the steps that they will take to achieve that (ban this, register that, confiscate) is starting to counter the knee-jerkism that drives most of the sheeple.

There should be a "cooling off period" of 24 months before the pols can go about soliciting support for reaction-legislation. Because do we really want to base laws on the feelings of voters that measure their success in life by the number of "likes" they get on their fb posts?

Don’t be too happy. They withdrew the bill. It can be reintroduced at ANY TIME Dingy Harry wants to. They will the next time some tragedy happens...

Would that this defeat would end the slimy practice of using children, dead or alive, as props for the Left’s political agenda....but I doubt it.

See how well gun control worked in Boston? Not one person was shot in that bomb attack.

Goes to show now the gun control issue is now for all purposes is DEAD. What has happened both in Boston and now in near Waco proves the need to honor Amendment #2.

The widely circulated 'rumor' about Obama getting gun control done under the radar -

Stealth Gun Control - EPA Considering Ban on Lead in Bullets as "Environmental Hazard" (Aug 2010) Lots of articles if you do a search

I need to thank my senator who voted against them all. Lord knows I don’t mind criticizing....

But its NOT over...so long as there is a dumblecrat majority somewhere, they will keep yammering and hammering away.
SCRU these people and the hypocrite Harry Reid. But it was funny to hear zero pouting and stompuing his foot like a 2yr old.

“The rout also vindicates Republicans who wanted the Senate to vote on the gun bill as opposed to the Rand Paul-Ted Cruz faction who sought a filibuster. “

Vindicates?
Hardly.
Enough GOP-e sellouts exist that such a move is tickling the dragons tail.
We got extremely lucky.
We may not be so lucky next time.
Look to New York for an example of UNlucky.

So much for the first big liberal hope of Mr. Obama's second term. Maybe he should consider a centrist strategy from now on.

SOMEbody hasn't been paying ATTENTION.

He will double-, triple-, and quadruple-down.

President Obama and the term 'lame duck'

I prefer to think of Zero as a lame f*ck.

-——the more ineffective he will be——

I think he will become more vindictivly dangerous.

Case in point.......

Governor Haslem of Tennessee appeared to be dithering before coming out in opposition to Obamacare exchanges for Tennessee. He was weighing the presidential threat

This week the IRS and FBI invaded the Knoxville corporate offices of Pilot/Flying J with a search warrant.

The message is pretty clear....... don’t screw with the president or I will hurt your families.

With this kind of vindictive action, Obama will be doing very well to be alive on the last day of his term.

I didn’t see him speak, but I heard it in his voice.

The petulant little entitled brat shown through his voice, loud and clear.

Not really.

Obama and the Democrats actually in private are glad to see this because they are waiting and hoping for the “next gun massacre” which they will pin on the Republicans not giving in on this gun control grab which Obama will use over and over again in ads in order to take back the House in 2014.
