Sen. Pat Toomey (R-Pa.) revealed that some members of his party opposed expanding background checks for gun sales recently because they didn't want to "be seen helping the president."

Two weeks ago, only three Republican senators voted for the bipartisan background checks amendment sponsored by Toomey and Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.), despite overwhelming popular support for such a measure.

"In the end it didn’t pass because we're so politicized. There were some on my side who did not want to be seen helping the president do something he wanted to get done, just because the president wanted to do it,” Toomey admitted on Tuesday in an interview with Digital First Media editors in the offices of the Times Herald newspaper in Norristown, Pa.

2. oh no, haven't you heard? M$M says the lack of progress on anything is due to a lack of leadership

from Obama....

Charlie Rose in particular, is constantly prattling this GOP Big Lie. I think Rose should get the Josef Goebbels, slime ball award for tirelessly repeating the Big Lies of GOP degenerates. Charlie is wearing out the knees of his suits performing oral tricks and groveling for the GOP. Well, I guess he's found his calling.
