    Fox is saying Obama will comment on this live! Probably will say he will try to do it by EO, if he can, because the majority of the world wants this? To clarify, Fox didn't say he would use EO. That was my musing!

      Yes he did and brought a family from Newton that lost a child. He then proceeded to tell the public that the republicans are the ones to blame for it's failing. I'm sure he is correct that majority did not vote for it. I have no idea what was in the bill in it's entirety , but from what he said it was about expanding background checks to gun shows and Internet . Now I'm thinking that they should do that so I am not sure what the problem was with them passing it. Or it is just one more political grandstanding. On all parts. I did agree with him when he bitterly complained that people say he is using his victims to further his cause. But he said they have every right to be able to speaks publicly about their views. Agreed. But at the White House after a bill he wants gets shot down? Politics I say.

        I didn't watch Obama's speech. But before I could mute it he talked about Gabby being shot and as always did not mention the Republican Judge, that she was talking to, getting KILLED. Does anyone but me remember that? He was a Republican and she was a Democrat and that is all Obama cares about, using her! She is still alive and was for gun rights and was a gun owner, before this all got politicized.

        I did hear he said the NRA lied about something but he lied by not pointing out that if this law was passed it would not have kept Sandy Hook from happening.

        The problem is this seems to be all about eventually taking away guns. Harry Reid let it slip today or yesterday that this is what it is ultimately about! Once every gun owner is on the list, it is pretty easy to go after the guns!

        Obama's state, our neighbor, has the strictest gun laws around and they can't keep the bad guys from getting guns illegally! Duh, bad guys don't go through back ground checks! Unfortunately, most of the killings are one group killing it's own members. This is the same reason St. Louis has such a bad reputation of a high murder rate, because neighborhoods in the North and South have gangs that regularly kill each other's members. The vast majority of gun owners do not commit crimes but it is a small exceptional group. Here is what 96% of Americans think about gun control:
