"There doesn't have to be a conflict between protecting our citizens and protecting our Second Amendment rights," Obama said,

Notice the absolutely Orwellian statement. It is absolutely true, but what President Obama is pushing does exactly the opposite of what is said.

The legislation that he is promoting not only puts the U.S. further on the path to rendering the Second Amendment meaningless and toothless, but makes citizens less safe than they currently are.

Wouldn’t bother him a bit. The sock puppet’s handlers would write another executive order and make the idiot sign it.

There is very little, if anything, left of our Constitution.

He’d go on tv, cry, and blubber “Shame on the shameful shammy pants Republicans”.

Americans, in general, are stupid, and will be busy with their iphones as their liberties are taken away.

For those of you unversed on the complete idiocy of Colorado liberals, please (other than Google) Diana DeGette - a Colorado bimbo of unbelievable stupidity even for a progressive bimbo and read/listen with this “thing” has to say about guns.

Also, you can get KHOW (a Denver radio station) on their website, look up Peter Boyles’ radio show, and get videos of this utterly clueless idiotess illustrating what we have to deal with when we deal with progressives.

It is not describable using words allowed on this blog.

Really.

That is why Obama up the rhetoric about Pelosi being the House Speaker again, that ‘’I could get a whole lot more done’... (Washington Examiner)

This wedge issue is going to be main focus for 2014 mid-term.

Gun confiscation enables tyranny.

Simple, he won't be enabled.

There doesn't have to be a conflict between protecting our citizens and protecting our Second Amendment rights...

President You Didn't Build That didn't dare say, "There isn't a conflict," but the much weaker, hypothetic, "There doesn't have to be a conflict." If I couldn't write a better speech than that, I'd sit down and shut up.

Well, when we’re like the UK and Australia and are allowed only a Joe Biden approved double barrel shotgun, the Orwellean statement makes sense.

"There doesn't have to be a conflict between protecting our citizens and protecting our Second Amendment rights," Obama said,

Just as long as those on the Right lay down and capitulate like their Party constantly does, there will be no conflict.

If he cant get even universal background checks out of Reid Senate you will see his approval dip even further because the libs who worshipped the victorious hero from Nov to ~ February will be very demoralized and split over the failure when they were SOOO sure Obama had this ‘in the bag’, much like GOP was a mess in January.

Mathews was ALREADY blaming it on Obama this week/.
Will only get better!

DemocRATS never admit losing, they just haven’t won yet. They got the tar beat out of them in the 94 elections due to gun control so they put it on the shelf for a few decades. As soon as they see an opportunity, its back again.

Republicans could win big in 2014.

Of course, they’ll make sure this doesn’t happen...

Nothing would happen, he would just do it another way. Communists never quit.

**** this may represent Obama’s last, best shot to achieve the types of firearms laws long rebuffed by the powerful gun lobby in Washington.****

No it doesn’t. If the law is not passed the following things will happen.

A tougher gun control law will be prepared and set aside.

A mental patient will be released from an insane asylum.

He will legally get a gun on the “to be banned” list by passing the NICS and local state checks.

He will get extended magazines on the “to be banned” list.

He will get ammo.

He will go on a killing spree.

He will then kill himself.

The set aside bill to ban guns will be brought out and passed in the heat of passion, with a backup of giving billions to the states as a bait to pass the bill.

It has happened in the past. This is how Pat Purdy got his guns to shoot up the Stockton school yard, then the California AW ban, which was already prepared, was passed in the heat of passion.

Nothing. We're still stuck with him for another 4 years.

Besides, based on the lack of action coming out of the Congress, he's basically already lost.

Next non-story.

He'd take another vacation.

He'd take one if he won, too.
