MORNING EXAMINER: Why Obama will lose on guns.

Since the current gun control proposals would do nothing to stop mass shootings, even if Obama’s gun control bill became law, more are bound to happen. And the deaths in those events will be no more or less tragic than the deaths at Columbine, Aurora, or Sandy Hook. The emotional appeal for “more” gun control will be the exact same. Anti-gun activists would just use those future tragedies to justify further gun restrictions. The logic of doing “just one thing” so a father does not have “to bury his child” simply has no end.

Note that this is a consistent argument with every liberal policy failure of the past. Schools are bad; we haven't spent enough. People continue to smoke; we haven't taxed them enough. People are still getting killed in automobile accidents; we haven't mandated enough safety equipment. Americans are getting fatter; we must restrict calories and mandate gym memberships.

You get the picture.
