It was referenced more to illustrate that the Obama (capitalized) admin tried to use it as a tool to make guns look evil, and to further an anti-gun agenda. Its generally accepted that Holder and his assigns refused to remove or track weapons that they knew were coming back across the border. This didn't happen under the Bush (capitalized) admin. It was begun under them, but as a different program. "As a person who leans more liberal regarding social and personal freedom issues, I blame Obama more for his in-actions than for his actions. He could've worked to crank back the patriot act, he could've worked to get Gitmo closed and dismantled, but maybe he was busy trying to get the crumbled financial sector back into functioning order... I'm not a fan of his actions in libya... but that is the only thing he "did" that I can think to critique him for, rather than what he "didn't do" " Which illustrates my point, I think. Libs are angry at him for dragging his feet, especially when he controlled both Houses early-on. They're angry at him for not taking full advantage of all of that power, and not advancing their agenda like he promised-to during the campaign. End the wars, close Gitmo, unemployment not going below 8%. Getting the crumbled financial sector back into functioning order by blaming the Wall Streeters on one hand, but taking their contributions with the other. By not forcing GE to pay any taxes on its billions in profits. By giving GM and Chrysler tons of OUR money which they'll never have to pay back. By handing out millions to "green technologies" which failed in short order (and the CEO's will not be held accountable nor investigated). Happens on both sides of the ideological coin. But conservatives don't make movies and write books about killing Obama.
