Obama Calls Out NRA

During the nationally televised town hall on gun violence on CNN, President Obama called out the NRA for not showing up and revealed that the Obama White House has repeatedly invited the NRA to the White House, but they have declined to show up.

The President said:

By the way, there’s a reason that the NRA is not here. They’re just down the street, and since this is the main reason that they exist you’d think that they’d be prepared to have a debate with the President.

What Happened To Republican Gas Attacks?

Ken O’Brien

Remember a couple of months ago when Republicans were blaming President Obama for high gas prices?

Remember when Newt Gingrich tried to revive his Presidential campaign with unfounded promises of $2.50 gasoline?

When was the last time gas prices were dropping before, during and after the Memorial Day weekend?

A Silver Bullet for Gas Prices?

There may be a way to lower gas prices almost immediately. The question is, can you live with it?

Ken O’Brien

Do you really want lower gas prices?

Just how far are you willing to let the government go to deliver them?

As I pointed out in an earlier article, the demagoguery of Republican Presidential candidates that are attempting to blame President Obama is simply irrational.

While they attempt to blame rising gas prices on the failure of the Obama Administration to approve the Keystone XL pipeline and its delay in approving a variety of offshore drilling permits U. S. oil production has actually increased under the current President.
