    What have you got against better background checks to keep nut jobs away from weapons?

    You either have evidence or you don't. Looks like you don't.

    That is just politics, not a failure of any kind. The entire Republican party has perception problems, too. But I can see why you would want to change the subject.

    Both parties are concerned about winning the Senate and House. So what?

    Dude, Obama is not running for Senate. Democrats have gotten themselves elected in those same states for a reason. The GOP is still going to have to find electable candidates.

    Not a failure. Approval ratings go up and down . . . for both parties.

    lmao. U serious? For one thing, he let his mouth overload his ass one too many times- causing him to balk. He's Putin's little pussy now.


    Working with them IS. His grand-standing and making comments like, "I won't negotiate" again showed us his whiny, bitchy, weak little butt-hurt ego. His weak leadership

    Balk at what? He played Putin like a violin. Assad had to back down and destroy his Russian WMD's to avoid air strikes that Russia couldn't do a goddamn thing about. You should read the newspaper better.

    "I won't negotiate" is weak leadership? Well, he didn't and he got his way. Weak Congress is the obstruction, not the Executive. Fact is, all you got is political griping. You can't point to a genuine failure at all.

    How'd that work for the kid at Sandy Hook who used his mom's?



    Uh, you miss the part about gun control...hard head.

    True. Now they have company and it's due to Obama's short-comings, or, for those who lack sight, at least perceptions. haha


    So you admit the Dem's are concerned...that's a start.


    And they're about to get themselves unelected for a reason too...Obama.


    Exactly, based on failure. Orrr, for those who lack sight, perception of.

    Duhhh! That's the case that proved the existing checks were inadequate. Do you really have no issues with selling guns to crazies?

    Easy to miss. Not a lot of substance. And you can find nothing else in the way of evidence?

    Keep hoping that. People are going to vote for candidates, not Presidents on the way out. A President that got elected twice, BTW. You keep imagining that the hate the right wing has for Obama translates into broad popular opinion regarding democrats.

    Well, you would be the expert on lacking sight.

    phew, over your head. Point being, background checks won't eliminate wackos getting guns. Capiché?

    And what did Putin do to avoid this? He talked his ally into giving up the WMD's! We win without loss of American lives or treasure. Putin and Assad had to back down on the issue.

    And if Obama had just bombed the WMD's instead, you would be bitching that he was getting us into another war. The entire republican political strategy over the past five years is "everything Obama does we are against". Not much of a platform for 2016 when Obama will be gone.

    But it helps immensely! Take off the blinders and try to get a broad view. If it reduces crazies getting guns to 10% of what exists now, it would be huge! If it restricts guns in households where crazies live, it might just reduce it even more.

    Talk is cheap. Prove to me they were really given up. To date they've turned over less than 5%- not counting what they hid. We lose.

    You have no idea what I'd be saying.


    After making a strong statement, he balked...let his mouth overload his ass. Like I said, on both accounts.

    The significance may seem small but it's one of many times he opened his mouth and it ended up not being truthful. It's why his biggest issue is an ever-growing number of Americans who don't trust him. "If you like your doctor..."
