I suppose he will suggest that we work together with the NRA to create "common sense" gun bills.
I sincerely hope he hasn't stooped that low yet.

(15,237 posts)From what I have read my response to him as a liberal and Progressive was calculated and given his bipartisan efforts inevitable. It is really an odd position I feel apathy toward Barak Obama even on issues I somewhat agree. At least I do hold the overwhelming hatred of President Obama that prevails among the right wing President Obama apparently values when he promoted chained CPI.
Something does need to be done about firearms. Maybe his words carry weight with someone, not me. Let him keep trying but sorry this supporter has been burnt once too often.
