Senior Advisor to President Barack Obama, Valerie Jarrett says, the president's failure to pass comprehensive immigration reform and inability to enact more gun laws are among the administration's "disappointments."

“When I look back at the last six years of unfinished business, one of my largest frustrations and disappointments is that we were not able to get comprehensive immigration reform,” Jarrett told the City Club of Chicago on June 11.

"When I look back at the last six years of unfinished business, one of my largest frustrations and disappointments is that we were not able....." Hmmm. That's some interesting phrasing there val. Almost make it look/sound like it's you that's really, uh, in charge. Odd eh? And, trust us when we say there's plenty more disappointment for us than you.

What a legacy! Take the guns out of the hands of law abiding American Citizens while simultaneously subjecting them to an onslaught of third world illegals from whom they’d likely need the protection of those guns that have been confiscated.

Maybe if they called it what it is and not the misleading “immigration reform” people would understand what they mean...

“Letting illegal aliens stay in this country and fighting anyone who tries to stop them” explains Obama’s aims better..

But then again, “immigration reform” sounds so legal and no need for concern..

But immigrants they’re not...

They’re illegal aliens...

Then why do they continue to stage shootings and try to find ways to add exceptions to keep people from owning guns?

Forget Jeb. No way he will get the nomination.

If the GOPe were to succeed in doing that, it would be the death knell of the GOP Party.

It’s already the death knell. The fast track rush-through is already the death knell. They do not G.A.S. any more.

So she’s admitting he lied through his teeth when he said he didn’t have any interest in gun control during his campaign.

And since when is anything he says not a lie?

It is a little amusing to those of us who sort of assumed that political capital was a purely imaginary thing to learn that they really did spend all of theirs ramrodding the wreck that is 0bamacare through and doing their little victory dance over the corpse of American freedom. Given the near monolithic control the proggies assumed over media, both houses of Congress, and the Executive, you’d think they’d have done a little better than that. It is a lesson wise political operators learn but ideologues never do.

I have created a simple fill in the blank sentence for you. Obama was against/for ____, before he was for/against it.
