He only got the job because of who his friends were so its kind of difficult to expect him to be competent.

I don't think you need to tell the families of those who have lost their children to gun violence that bills like this may be filibustered. I don't think that would be welcome news, Carney said. Will the bill do a damn thing to assuage the suffering these people have experienced?
No.
Will it do anything to avoid others suffering the same kind of trauma?
No.
Will it intrude on the 2nd Amendment rights of a hundred million and more law-abiding gun owners?
Dambetcha!
Conclusion: You're peddling a line of crap, Jay Carney.

They are coming..just like they are doing with the family and marriage. if you don’t think they are, you are mistaken. They have the media momentum on their side. We seem to just point fingers at one another. We need to get behind a movement and promote the constitution and stay committed.

Jay Corny thinks we should forfeit our rights to a certain group of people. Law abiding Americans shouldn't be punished every time some liberal loser goes on a killing spree. I'm sick of these elitist snobs who want to disarm us while they have armed security guards protecting themselves

Make the dadgum dems vote over and over again - this is Obama and Reid trying to front run cloture votes that the NRA and others will use against them.
