A few days ago, U.S. Sen. Bob Corker traveled to Nashville to speak at the annual National Rifle Association conference. Other prominent Republicans were there, too. And Jeff Foxworthy.

That’s a shame.

The NRA forgot to invite the one politician who belongs there the most.

Obama.

He’s the most gun-happy president of the last 70 years.
