But throughout the hourlong speech, he never addressed the issue at the core of the Giffords tragedy—gun control—and what lawmakers would, or should, do to reform American firearm-access laws.
Yup, and the liberal elite are starting with their disinformation campaign:

Good thing we live in a Constitutional Republic!
Doesn't matter, I don't need a piece of paper to tell me what I can and can't do.
I think they may push for enhanced federal regulations regarding mental health background checks with firearms purchases which considering the failure of the mental health system in the nation is a fair nod at the dreaded 'reasonable restrictions' talking point; past that I don't see the Democrats being that stupid.

We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness. — That to secure these rights, Governments are instituted among Men, deriving their just powers from the consent of the governed, — That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness. Prudence, indeed, will dictate that Governments long established should not be changed for light and transient causes; and accordingly all experience hath shewn that mankind are more disposed to suffer, while evils are sufferable than to right themselves by abolishing the forms to which they are accustomed. But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.

Now THAT'S a scary thought...
It is no coincidence that Obama would push this after the new Congress was sworn in. He's safe to push for all the things his uber lefty base wants and then can blame their failure on the evil rethuglicans in the House. It doesn't hurt when people like Dick Cheney are on your side either. Bipartisan and all that.

Tuesday night after the speech, Obama adviser David Plouffe said to NBC News that the president would not let the moment after the Arizona shootings pass without pushing for some change in the law, to prevent another similar incident.
First, it overlooks a critical distinction. The Minutemen were not going to war with their own government. They were going to war with British forces. Yes, of course, the American colonies were part of the British Empire. But Americans increasingly had come to see British forces as a foreign army of occupation.
we cannot see our own government as an enemy.

He'll be getting help from more than one RINO in the Senate, God forbid it makes it that far.
