It would backfire on them. Polls show the vast majority side with gun owners on this issue.

He knows it won't pass. He wants a vote on record so those votes can be used in campaigns by democrats running against republicans in 2014 for congress to swing the anti-gun centrists and conservatives towards the Democrats.

What's the most important item Obama needs for his lat two years in office to complete his master plan? Having both the house and senate again...

Bigger picture.

Re: Missed The State Of The Union?

I find it so ironic that the Republicans put us in this situation...ran the country so far into the ground that a guy with the last name of Obama could get elected...twice...and now sit around whining about the sad state things are in now.

Where were you when GWB was spending all the money...without any need for approval from anyone?

I really don't understand how you can sit around and blame the problems we are facing today on today's people who are actually trying to put out the raging blaze that the GOP started.

Whether you think you can or think you can't...you're right!

Well the 1st problem I see is that you believe Republicans put us in this situation.

Think again:
Barney Frank 2003: "Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac are not facing any kind of financial crisis"
Bubble Meter: Barney Frank and Christopher Dodd deserve blame for Fannie and Freddie
There is plenty more where that came from. Both of these bozos are flaming libs and Democrats.

Well...apparently 50.1% of America does too. Let's approach this from a different angle. If GWB and the GOP are not responsible for the 1st Black to be elected president of the USA...a man who has a last name that sounds like he could be Muslim...then what is the reason he was elected? Do you think that many people are all stupid?

I'm curious, what 'all the money' did he spend with zero approval? That point is fairly moot however.

Based on your reply your ok with what Obama is doing based on what his predecessors did? Wasn't Obama elected to do the opposite?

While W did start a grass fire with his LIBERAL actions, Obama has taken it to full blown global burning Armageddon.

Interestingly enough you agreed about how terrible the state of things are now and Obama was elected precisely to correct that... Reality is that he has tripled the damage and there is a lot more coming.

Now, that being said. It would be such a breath of fresh air if liberals would focus on present issues and not attack conservatives personally, and keep repeating "W", "W",..... Finger pointing resolves nothing, and claiming we are in the deep quagmire of sh1t we are in is because of someone else doesn't help get us out of it.. does it?

Unless you are willing to concede that Bush was genius enough to put the country into a situation that no one on the left side of the aisle is smart enough to get us out of?

You should expect some in my replies.

No, stupid is not the word i would use.. gullible and ignorant to reality is more like it. Foolhardy? Voting on empty promises?

What I can not seem to decipher is how liberals hate GW so much... Nearly all of his practices were liberal.
