He’s got a pen. He’s got a phone. He refuses to use either of them to reach across the aisle. Instead, he demands that things be done his way, and his way only. Establishment Republicans would love to pass amnesty, er, a pathway to citizenship, but there is no trust that Obama will do anything […]

It’s apparently Monday Poll day at Politico. They have one saying that most people favor legislation that tightens background checks for gun purchases. That’s rather common sense.
