Most of the Republicans in Congress are Beltway Republicans (as opposed to conservative or Tea Party Republicans) and they don't have the backbone or stomach to go on the offensive against Obama. They should be giving updates on a regular basis on the Benghazi investigation and the Fast and Furious investigation and calling on the administration's lack of cooperation in these matters. Obama's over the top abuse of executive orders, especially in constitutional matters should be enough grounds to start impeachment proceedings, even if this would be a tough case. At least it puts Obama on the defensive.
As for gun restictions, I'm sure interested to see how that would play out in the south and the midwest. How are they going to enforce any new restrictive laws? Confiscation? Over our cold....well, you get the idea.
