Why should one be more pressing than the other? Right now, no one is having their guns taken away. There are 250 million guns in circulation. Obama will never be able to pass the assault weapons ban in Congress. Harry Reid doesn't even want to put it up for a vote in the Senate until it is passed in the House. And it will never get thru the House.

This is all a distraction from our real problems, including illegal immigration. It is easy to demonstrate a spine on the gun issue because it is a winner. The Reps are being stampeded on amnesty in the false hope that they will somehow get more of the Hispanic and immigrant vote. They will not and will end up legalizing more Dem voters.

I am a strong believer in the 2nd Amendment and an NRA member, but I am not as concerned about Obama's charade on gun control as I am about our dire fiscal condition and the lack of the Reps desire to confront the Dems on it. The latest example is the passage of the pork-laden Sandy bill of about $60 billion, which is approximates the same amount of revenue raised by the taxing the rich hike to avoid the fiscal cliff.

Obama is employing a Cloward-Piven strategy of manufacturing all of these crises to distract from what he is really doing to transform this country, e.g., the implementation of another huge entitlement program--Obamacare. He has the Reps running around trying to stamp out multiple small fires while he employs a grand strategy to destroy this country. Immigration, legal and illegal, has changed the demographics of this country, which will make the Dems the permanent majority party. Obama, a failed President, was reelected, which demonstrates we have reached a tipping point in this country politically.
