How can you argue that additional gun control legislation is not on Obamas agenda when he says quite clearly that it is on the whitehouse.gov website?

I can understand and agree with the argument that he has bigger fish to fry and it won't be at the top of his to do list, and I also agree that many senators/congressmen will be loath to support anti-gun legislation due to the fallout from the '94 ban. However, it IS on his agenda (and the democratic parties agenda) and therefore could possibly end up in a bill whenever the opportunity presents itself.
