Tonight's address from the Oval Office to the American people was yet another missed opportunity to lead --no substantive proposals and no specifics on what actions he plans to take. I was disappointed that a significant part of the President's speech was used to stump for gun control and lecture Americans on the importance of showing compassion and tolerance to Muslims. First, terrorists, and others bent on killing, do not follow our laws - period. Curbing the rights of law-abiding Americans to keep and bear arms with meaningless, feel good legislation is both nave and dangerous. Second, the attacks on September 11th, at the Boston Marathon, and last week in California are a product of Islamic terrorism, not American insensitivity to our fellow citizens. Mr. President, enough is enough - it's time to lead. | 1 | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z | 2026-03-30T12:14:52Z |
