Obama sounds like a community organizer when he says such nonsense. The POTUS should rise above the fray, not stir the pot.

Obama, a student of Saul Alinsky tactics, is following the rules for radicals.

Right.........."fair and balanced."

Did you learn about this on Fox News as well/

"Recess appointments during the George W. Bush administration"

Maybe you and Obama should study up on what compromise is. In case you won't look the word up maybe I can tell you that it has always been how things got done in our government up to the election of Obama. His feelings about compromise are that "it is my way or the highway". In compromise there is give and take and he really doesn't understand that, at all. We have always had weaker than needed laws because of the need for compromise.

Study up on the 3/5 Compromise and why it was done to get the Constitution passed and then ratified. Maybe you could understand the word, compromise, better if you studied history about that compromise.

What do you think compromise is? Obama's way or the highway? Does that work for you?

One of those promises to get votes that he forgot the day he got elected the first time.

It's being appealed. It would not surprise me to see this ruling overturned.

It most likely will be appealed to the SCOTUS but it has not been appealed. Not really the point though.

Obama suggests Republicans unwilling to compromise in gun control debate | Fox News
Obama always suggests that Republicans are unwilling to compromise. Unless you agree with what he wants you're an obstructionist. He's been beating that drum for literally years. It has taken on a "so what else is new" quality. He really should quit whining and do his job. If I brought as many excuses for why I wasn't able to get things done at my job as he does, I'd be fired.

Can you list the bills the House passed that were vetoed by Obama?

What is the point here? The House doesn't pass bills and send them to the president. Maybe you have a valid point somewhere, but I'm not seeing it.
