As Twitchy reported, Sen. Dianne Feinstein’s proposed assault weapons ban is barely clinging to life support, thanks to Harry Reid.

Oh, and there’s this:

Imagine. That. RT @reuters Harry Reid: fewer than 40 senators support Obama-backed assault weapon ban legislation #breaking

Evidently, though, the president’s “independent” OFA stooges missed the memos. This afternoon, the @BarackObama Twitter account is still pimping the ban:

It’s time for Congress to take common-sense steps to reduce gun violence. #TimeToAct, twitter.com/BarackObama/st…

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 19, 2013

It even busted out the same Gabby Giffords photo it used last month to push the assault weapons ban:

RT if you agree: All victims of gun violence deserve a vote—and Congress needs to act now. #TimeToAct, twitter.com/BarackObama/st…

— Barack Obama (@BarackObama) March 19, 2013

Demand all the votes you want, pal. But, when the Senate Democrats offer up their gun control bill, Feinstein’s ban won’t be a part of it. D’oh!

@barackobama ya might wanna call @senatorreid . Because he’s the one who put your ban on the back burner bud. #alliterationgonewild #tcot

Might want to talk to Reid, dude RT @barackobama: RT if you agree: All victims of gun violence deserve a vote—and Congress needs to act now.

Maybe the tools at @barackobama hope the lemming won’t notice the assault weapons ban was dropped?

The kids from OFA running @barackobama‘s account are either ignorant abt Reid BLOCKING assault weapon ban or banking on ignorant flock #p2

Can’t it be both?
