What ever the answer to Mr. Obama’s question is ….I don’t think he is anything but capricious about dealing with it. Effectively capricious that is. Some many conflicting interests that everything effectively gets treated like a joke.

I actually believe he thinks it is one of his biggest failings. In fact, I believe he even said so. The political will seems to have been there but was trounced by special interests. What is interesting is that now even the NRA has come out against some of its one supporters, probably because it realizes mass slayings are spreading like a disease— “exponentially” as Obama said—and that eventually it is going to backfire on them. Either that or they just ‘get it’ now. The more likely scenario is we won’t get a volte-face from them, but no doubt they’d be happier with a mass slaying every month as opposed to every week. I can’t believe I just said that.
