WH warns Paul/Cruz

[Forever_frost]

You’ve been warned.

Via Politico:

White House press secretary Jay Carney suggested Tuesday that GOP Sens. Ted Cruz, Mike Lee and Rand Paul are out of step with the public on gun-control measures.

The three lawmakers have threatened to filibuster “any legislation that will serve as a vehicle for any additional gun restrictions.”

Carney said he hasn’t spoken with President Obama about the threat, but the White House position is clear.

“Filibusters of efforts to move forward with common-sense measures to reduce gun violence would be unfortunate,” he said. “We have worked with Congress, with the Senate, to try to advance the elements of the president’s plan that require legislative action and these again are common-sense measures.

Fuck the WH.

I think it is time Americans start warning the White House on various topics and situations. And I don't mean the "0bama strongly-worded letter" type of warning.

That's a great sign. All that means is that they are shaking things up.

Yep

If the WH continues to destroy America and some nutjob attacks it, then how unfortunate that would be.

What? I think they are the few who are actually in touch with the public. Fuck the WH, they've been out of touch for years.

Son of a bitch, I think my vote for Cruz is the first vote I've ever made that really mattered. Go get em Ted!

I agree and it appears they are shaking enough the wh is getting nervous.

Vindication. This is what happens when you start making an impact. The hilarious thing is it will only encourage them. Which is an awesome byproduct. Sick 'em boys.

I guess I've only recently noticed them calling for "common sense" gun control laws. Smart, really. I mean, if you don't agree with "common sense" gun control, you must be an unstable gun nut.

Besides, what the fuck is the white house going to do, give them a stern talking to? That's WHY we have three branches of government, so that the legislative branch can tell the executive branch to get bent.
