    They're just selling magazines.

    And, it seems they give it to presidents of the US with surprising regularity. Even Carter got one.

    Yeah, especially during an election year.

    I wonder if they considered Bernanke.

    I think comparing the President of the United States and leader of the free world to a N. Korean dictator proves you love America, especially when you claim that the N. Korean dictator is better.

    Doctor Tal, and basso are really having a tough time adjusting.

    I don't understand why suddenly, just because Obama won reelection, we're supposed to forget all the things we voted against him for.

    Not surprising at all. This makes 8 of the last twelve Presidential election winners who have been named Time Man of the Year when they won.

    And on top of that, Clinton was named in 1998 and Reagan in 1983.

    I like Obama very much. With his constitutional background he moved deliberately neutral on going against gun rights because he recognizes the slippery slope. If we infringe/ban this, then we can do the same for that based on precedent...and I loved his calculated response to the idiot reporter who asked where he was on this for the last few years...did anyone else catch it...? Very good comeback...but listening to Obama, you can tell that he tries to be fair...I won't blame him at all for further legislation after the public perception and fear ( although not truly warranted) i'm personally all good. Heck, I just bought a mark 12 mod 0 ar15 yesterday to add to the collection,...I have nearly 100 full capacity mags...personally, I have everything I want now and more regarding firearms.

    I just appreciate his stance to be deliberate about action. Something he could have done anytime in the four years prior but wanted to be proper. Thanks Obama. I'd rather have the other guy in your place, but it is difficult to root against you because of how you come across...
