As if this wasn't discussed already.

So is everyone on this thread going to do something about it?

I doubt it. The ones who can't wait to say they won't vote for him, never voted for him in the first place.

The ones who claim the assault weapons ban doesn't effect them don't remember all of the bans that were supposed to take place but were stopped by the very people who are fighting this ban.

I think we're close to a thousand posts on this subject. We should be using that energy to write and call the White House and explain that this bill has to die before it reaches the President's desk.

It's an election year bill. It's going to happen so that ir can be removed as a campaign issue. The best we can hope for is a 1 year extention which moves the issue into a non-election timeframe where it can be quietly killed.

Make no mistake, this is a popular bill with the general population and it needs to be dealt with pragmatically. To kill it outright during an election year would be a dangerous political move.

Hey...I did vote for him. I also volunteered my time to work campaign events. So, don't give me that crap.

I'm certainly willing to give him a chance. If he can prevent this from reaching his desk, while claiming to be in favor of it...fine. He can do that, and I'll still support him.

But if that approach fails, and it reaches his desk, and he signs it into law, well...I'm afraid I will have to rethink my support.
