The Nobodies Win!
Nobody Wins!
Despite the constant coverage of the Boston Marathon bombing, the nobodies of America actually won in Congress today. Obama’s dreams of disarming Americans was put on hold:
This from the Washington Times:
President Obama angrily blamed the defeat Wednesday of his centerpiece gun-control proposal on lies spread by the National Rifle Association, calling it “a pretty shameful day for Washington.”
“The gun lobby and its allies willfully lied about the bill,” Mr. Obama said in the White House rose garden about 90 minutes after the vote. “It came down to politics.”
Who lied about this bill Mr. President?
And while he was extremely angry for having lost even after having to ‘share’ his Air Force One with all those grieving families, and putting them up for photo-lops, he did say something that rang true:
” You’ve got to send the right people to Washington,” he told voters. “That requires strength and it requires persistence. I see this as just Round One. Sooner or later, we are going to get this right.”
And the gun-owning voters say: “Yes sir! We DO need to send the right people to Washington. If you think Round One was hard, wait until you get to Round Two, Mr. ‘President.’ We are stocking up. Spreading the word. Getting ready.”
For once, the people put the fear into some elected democrats.
And that’s always a good day.


I am astonished he didn’t take this opportunity, right on the heels of that vote and the Boston bombing to call for ID checks and personality tests for people buying pressure cookers and ball bearings. The press has interviewed everyone and his dog on TV about gun control measures, and soon it will be the turn of celebrity chefs and Tim the Toolman.
Gordon Ramsey will spice up the commentariat, but one has to ask if they will release his personality test results with a written warning on-screen that it is not suitable for children.
