Heads up, Obama gunning for 16 Republican lawmakers

Heads up, Obama gunning for 16 Republican lawmakers Organizing for Action, the pro-Obama advocacy group formed last month out of the president's reelection campaign, is launching an online campaign urging Republican lawmakers to support universal background checks for gun purchases. The Los Angeles Times reports that the ads will target 16 Republican lawmakers who have not publicly committed to stricter background checks, including Sen. Kelly Ayotte (R-N.H.), Sen. Susan Collins (R-Maine), and Rep. Buck McKeon (R-Calif.) in ads on local news outlets' websites starting Friday. The LA Times reports that the group spent close six figures on the ad buy, which is the issue-based nonprofit group's first. The ad launch coincides with the group's national "Day of Action," which encompasses 100 events in 80 congressional districts. According to the LA Times, Friday's events are aimed at building support for tougher background check standards, but future "action" days will focus on other aspects of the president's gun policy proposals. see more

something Freudian happened at Sandy Hook shooting

something Freudian happened at Sandy Hook shooting It seems that the spot lite is on gun control, I think the real issue is the state of mind of the kid who, woke up one morning, then shoots his mother in her face 4 time while she was still in bed. That's smells Freudian to me. Gun control is off target, pardon the pun. Gun control is off target, pardon the pun.
