The GOP is dead set against it and they have enough people in their caucus to torpedo otherthings with it. Like the full faith and credit of the United States of America. Obama isn't going to gut his single most important legislative accomplishment. Take off the red and blue stained glasses. I can say without hesitation Obama won't cave. It's not getting delayed or gutted. Will Boehner cave? He won't before he rattles the market a little. This is how the smart money guys know when to buy and sell. We can't cash like they can but we can read the tea leaves enough to profit from it.

Definatly not the Newt/Clinton situation. Bernanke might slow the printing presses and edge up interest rates. Rich people will profit, middle class will suffer some more.

And that is one law that needs to change.

Looks like Rick Perry isn't wasting any time.

Texas Republican Gov. Rick Perry will visit a gun manufacturer in Maryland as part of his push to lure businesses to the Lone Star State, according to a report.
Perry will tour the factory of Beretta USA in Accokeek, Md., on Wednesday, according to CNN. Perry has gone after several Democratic governors lately, airing radio ads in California, New York, Missouri, Connecticut and, most recently, Maryland, to try to lure businesses to the Lone Star State.

The irony of this post is absolutely painful.

I agree with you

Absolutely pathetic. 13 people are killed and the first thing people do on this forum is use it as an excuse to be political.

If you don't see that this was inappropriate?..then there is really nothing to say. I give this guy cred when he deserves it. I criticize him when he needs it. He needs it on this.

When the Commander and Chief disregards the deaths of service men in this fashion....something is seriously wrong with him and those around him.

Absolutely.

Right is right, and wrong is wrong, regardless of the timing.

Once again, you ******** just can't resist. Going all apeshit with no context whatsoever. What did he say? Where's the link to the speech...ya know...so we don't just blindly take your partisan bull**** translation of a speech as fact?

But no, that takes some common sense and a little time, which you guys just can't bother with. Carry on morons. SMH.

Well, Assshole, (since we're now calling names) I put some of the lowlights in my post juuuust up there. ^^^.

It isn't hard though, 2 miles from an active crime/murder scene of American Service men and president Petulant just can't contain his glee with having another opportunity to make another vacuous speech that someone else has handed him. No time to adjust his words or give it a rest for a day or two. Full campaign mode ahead!!!

At least he didn't try and go off script again and create another international embarrassment. This one was only personal...

**** all of you. There's sort of an unwritten rule around here...at least for us liberals there is...that you have to provide some context and a link so we know what the **** you're talking about instead of just taking your word for it. The president makes lots of speeches and comments from day to day so who knows what the hell you fools are babbling about!

And if you think that everything your ilk posts on here should be taken blind as ******* gospel, you're delirious.

Thank you for posting. Sorry, but I wasn't near a TV during the day as I was at work. And I posted above why it's not my job to discern what red herring your side is trotting out this time.

And while the president's words on the shooting...:

Quote:Before I begin, let me say a few words about the tragedy that’s unfolding not far away from here, at the Washington Navy Yard. That’s part of why our event today was delayed.

I’ve been briefed by my team on the situation. We still don’t know all the facts. But we do know that several people have been shot, and some have been killed. So we are confronting yet another mass shooting. And today it happened on a military installation in our nation’s capital. It’s a shooting that targeted our military and civilian personnel.

These are men and women who were going to work, going their job protecting all of us. They’re patriots. And they know the dangers of serving abroad, but today they faced the unimaginable violence that they wouldn’t have expected here at home.

So we offer our gratitude to the Navy and local law enforcement, federal authorities and the doctors who’ve responded with skill and bravery. I’ve made it clear to my team that I want the investigation to be seamless so that federal and local authorities are working together. And as this investigation moves forward, we will do everything in our power to make sure whoever carried out this cowardly act is held responsible.

In the meantime, we send our thoughts and prayers to all at the Navy Yard who’ve been touched by this tragedy. We thank them for their service. We stand with the families of those who’ve been harmed. They’re gonna need our love and support.

And as we learn more about the courageous Americans who died today, their lives, their families, their patriotism, we will honor their service to the nation they helped to make great. And obviously, we’re gonna be investigating thoroughly what happened, as we do so many of these shootings, sadly, that have happened, and do everything that we can to try to prevent them.

...were good and appropriate. I agree that the rest of the speech should have been postponed until a later time. However, not knowing the logistics and such, I'm not sure if that had anything to do with why he went ahead with the planned remarks.

Look man, I read crap on here all the time and when I question it I generally look it up. Reading what he said on here, hearing him say it on Rush(I know you'll love that reference), and Fox talking about it leads me to believe he said it. Now, before you blast where I heard it please keep in mind that **** you.

I watched it...Fwad. He spent a couple of minutes on this and then launched into an political attack. I could care less if he did that. Honestly they need attacking on lots of issues...but...there is a time an place. This F'er evidently has zero idea what it means to be Commander and Chief. This is what you get when you elect a unqualified and inexperienced person to high office. You are to blame Tom.
