This from Yahoo! News:

Administration officials who previewed Obama's proposals on a conference call with reporters fleshed out some important details (on condition that they not be named)—and left some important questions unanswered:

- They wouldn’t say whether any of the steps the president is recommending would have prevented the massacre at Sandy Hook and other recent mass shootings. One senior official on the call did say, "There’s no question that both the actions that he’s taking and the legislation that he’s proposing will save lives.”

- They did not provide an estimate of how many lives would be saved annually if the president got everything he wanted, saying the social science on gun deaths is not precise enough to do so.

- Obama isn’t sending “specific legislative language” to Congress, the officials said, instead he's following his usual blueprint of laying out principles and then letting lawmakers craft a bill.

- The proposals to limit the manufacture of new assault weapons and ammunition clips with more than 10 bullets would not affect those already on the market.

- How did they settle on 10 bullets (and not seven, or 15)? One official said that number was taken from the 1994 assault weapons ban that Obama hopes to renew and strengthen.

- Was the so-called "Fast and Furious" gun trafficking scandal a factor in shaping the president's proposals? "It was not," said one official.

Don't get me wrong, I like it. I'm just not going to give people credit for it when they failed to do anything for so long.

It is a start. And in the end this is really all the President can do. Congress needs to pass laws, he can only sign or veto them. Because regardless of all the rhetoric to the contrary, this country does not have a king.

Who are you talking about here? Another lazy post. First people are racist if they disagree with the president, now if you disagree you are an Obama hater, or even if you agree but think that he had 4 years prior where he did nothing takes away his ability to be the knight in shining armor, now you are an Obama hater.

In reality, it;s the fallen children, the fallen school teachers, and the ones left behind affected the most by the recent tragedy that should get all the credit for helping Americans come to their senses. Well, at least some Americans.

No we won't. My only hope is that 4 years of Carter lead to Reagan. 8 years of Obama should lead to god.

And your party will never nominate another Reagan. Not in the near future at least. Although the Ron Paul cultists may argue that nominating Rand would be akin to nominating the son of god.

You can now download software that will print 3-D 30 round clips for assault rifles. So much for a ban.

Ahhh, technology .....

one of the most disturbing things that I read awhile back was the availability of guns through the internet and gun shows and their lack of background check. the new proposals from Obama require background checks for all gun buyers in an attempt to close the so-called "gun-show loophole" that allows people to buy guns at trade shows and over the Internet without submitting to background checks. It might reduce the number of weapons bought quickly and with ease..

Yup. What scares me is over the last few weeks, several news outlets both national and local have been reporting that the lines to purchase guns at gun shows are blocks long with several thousand people. In some cases, people are taking multiple dollies for the amount of weapons and ammo that they are purchasing. Scary!!

(As for your first point, that was my point. 8 years of this may change that - and for the record - it's not my party. I am a fiscal conservative, social moderate to liberal. I don't have a party, and the son of god doesn't rep me either. )

I don't see why anyone who is worth listening to wouldn't support this.... I hope Congress acts responsibly here. Maybe they see it as something that will ensure the Rs a win next election (doubt it), and pass it.

Thankfully the President is not King.

This won't go anywhere, nor should it.

It probably will.
