WASHINGTON — President Barack Obama waded into the politically treacherous gun control debate on Sunday, calling for reform of rules to prevent attacks like the one that wounded an Arizona congresswoman two months ago.
Obama, in an opinion piece published in the Arizona Daily Star, said some 2,000 people had perished from gun violence in the short time since a gunman in Tucson killed six people and shot Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in the head.
"Every single day, America is robbed of more futures. It has awful consequences for our society. And as a society, we have a responsibility to do everything we can to put a stop to it," he wrote.
I can see the Senate making a play for some crap or other...and I can see it dying in the House. Bumbling Barry the Baboon will get no gun control this session....
I think his choice of words is interesting. "Reforming the rules..." That doesn't require Congressional action. That's done at the administrative level. BATFE, DOJ, FBI...

All Bills originate in the House, not the Senate.
Speaking of Bumbling, try bumbling through that document called the Constitution some time.

Obama needs to read The Constitution.....You know .....that little thing called the 2nd Amendment......
I'm pretty sure he's read it. And I'm pretty sure he knows that the last two decisions supporting it were 5-4 decisions. He also knows that if he gets to appoint a new justice on the 5 side of that issue, the second amendment is a dead issue forever.
He may not be the sharpest prez we've ever had, but he knows about the second amendment for sure. The second amendment is one heart attack away from becoming an historical curiousity.

Hey, you're the one who has claimed your private schooling was superior in open forum and then in the next post proved you couldn't spell.
Blew up in your face. Then you ran from it.
spelling? is that the best thing you got? Seriously Gulf, pick up a text book before you try hanging with the big dogs. Your left wing sources are letting you down. This week alone you have posted over 1/2 dozen mistakes. It's what happens when you don't independently check the facts on your own. Especially those coming from left wing sources.
