Home Forums Hunting & Shooting Hunter's Campfire Obama Knows His AWB Is Dead...Blaming The GOP Has Begun

He was a visiting guest lecturer when the truth came out- not on the faculty.

Lying sack of schit POTUS

"Has Obama himself ever fired a gun? Yes, he says, he and others shoot skeet frequently at the president's Maryland retreat, Camp David."

Wonder who's shotgun he uses? Think he owns one? Who are the others?

BTW, I see Obama as the president of Blame. Can't recall him ever acknowledging responsibility.

Obama hasn't given up the fight. There has been no disavowing of his statements desiring an AWB.

Asking greedy Wall Street types to short sell a stock that is going nowhere but up short term seems more like desperation than astute political maneuvering.

BOA was already giving gun makers grief. Google the McMillan/BOA mixup.

The antis were forced to play this hand at a bad time and are going to give it their best shot. That being said, the timing is very bad for them and is better for us.

What could they do? They already ignored the Aurora Shootings because the internal polling (the accurate polling the public never sees) told them it was a very bad play during the election.

Ignore another �crisis� (Sandy Hook) and the base is uberpissed and you need a simply monumental next �crisis� to get the public on your side.

This is why I never buy into the �conspiracy tin foil hat crap�. The timing for this push is all wrong for the Banners. They got dealt a bad hand on this �crisis� but have been forced to play it.

It is going to cost them with very little upside.

BO lipspeaks compromise, yet there is no compromise in any initiatives he's accomplished.

Affordable Care Act is a shining star example.

Obama suggests Republicans unwilling to compromise in gun control debate

President Obama is suggesting that House Republicans on the issue of gun control appear neither willing to work with him nor listen to the American public on the issue.

�The House Republican majority is made up mostly of members who are in sharply gerrymandered districts that are very safely Republican and may not feel compelled to pay attention to broad-based public opinion, because what they're really concerned about is the opinions of their specific Republican constituencies,� the president said in an interview with The New Republic.

Obama also said he can get 50 percent of public support for many of his upcoming initiatives, but �I can't get enough votes out of the House of Representatives to actually get something passed. � I think there is still shock on the part of some in the party that I won re-election.�

The president said he has a profound respect for the traditions of hunting that date back for generations.

He said that moving forward on the topic means understanding that the realities of guns in urban areas are very different from the realities of guns in rural areas.

He said it's understandable that people are protective of their family traditions when it comes to hunting so �gun-control advocates also need to do �a little more listening than they do sometimes� in the debate.

The interview appears in the Feb. 11 issue of The New Republic.

Obama also said one of the biggest factors in the gun-control debate will be how it is shaped by the media.

�If a Republican member of Congress is not punished on Fox News or by Rush Limbaugh for working with a Democrat on a bill of common interest, then you�ll see more of them doing it,� he said. �I think John Boehner genuinely wanted to get a deal done, but it was hard to do in part because his caucus is more conservative probably than most Republican leaders are, and partly because he is vulnerable to attack for compromising Republican principles and working with Obama.�

The president argued that �the more left-leaning media outlets recognize that compromise is not a dirty word� and that party leaders, including Senate Majority Harry Reid and House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi, are �willing to buck the more absolutist-wing elements in our party to try to get stuff done.�

Has Obama himself ever fired a gun? Yes, he says, he and others shoot skeet frequently at the president's Maryland retreat, Camp David.

The president also said much of the challenge in Washington is to make Americans feel that national politics is indeed connected to their day-to-day realities.

�And that�s not an unjustifiable view,� he said. So everything we do combines both a legislative strategy with a broad-based communications and outreach strategy to get people engaged and involved, so that it�s not Washington over here and the rest of America over there.�

Once a commie organizer always a commie organizer, he only knows blame and division.

Where's the resident cck suckers always telling us that there is no difference between the parties?

If there were no difference, the alleged 6 Dem Senators and slim majority in the house wouldn't mean d!ck.

Americans better realize the GOP isn't perfect, but it's the only damned party that matters, still comprised of people that actually respect the constitution and what it stands for.

Excellent, but I would amend by removing the word "governments" and replace with the word "politicians".
