Oh my! His Imminence is upset.
In fact, he is borderline furious, lashing out at the NRA, Congress, and
anybody else who may have contributed to defeat of his “so called” gun control
bill. Never known for displaying
presidential class, he publicly called the NRA “liars.” The entire episode showed that Obama expects us
to do what he says. After all, he is sure
he is so much smarter than we are.
I find this defeat even more satisfying because Obama gave the
gun bill his full court press. Just like
a cheap politician, he gathered kids and parents from Newtown as backdrop for
his daily speeches. He even allowed one parent
to deliver his weekly radio address. Gabby
Giffords was so prevalent in the background I thought she must be a cardboard cutout.
It seems the populace is smarter than Barack assumed,
realizing that the proposed legislation was simply more government interference
with no impact on gun violence. Nonetheless,
Obama is stunned. How on earth can the
smartest guy in the room be so rudely rebuked, he asks?
