Report: Obama to give presidential address on gun control
President Obama did not, as gun control extremists hoped he would, take the opportunity of a State of the Union address so closely following the attempted assassination of Congresswoman Gabrielle Giffords in Arizona to push the issue of gun control.
Following the State of the Union address, MSNBC's Chris Matthews broke the news that Obama is planning a special address on the issue in the near future.
A White House senior adviser later confirmed the report.
And before you get too excited that the newley-elected House leadership will stop any Obama agenda dead in its tracks..."GOP to look at federal gun laws"
While a board member of the leftist Joyce Foundation, Barack Obama wrote checks for tens of millions of dollars to extremist gun control organizations such as the Illinois Council Against Handgun Violence and the Violence Policy Center.
While he has not yet addressed the issue in the way gun control extremists hoped he would when he was elected, Obama has conducted himself as an anti-gun president, just as gun rights activists predicted he would:
