CBS Chief Washington Correspondent and anchor of Face the Nation, Bob Schieffer, applauded President Barack Obama’s move Wednesday to sign executive orders attempting to address gun violence in America. Schieffer said that Obama’s speech announcing the orders was “one of the best speeches I’ve heard him deliver.” He went on to say that the nation was at a crossroads because the massacre at Newtown was the most traumatic experience Americans had faced since September 11, 2001. Taking on America’s pro-gun interests is accomplishable, he added, because it is a less formidable task than passing civil rights legislation or defeating Nazi Germany in World War II.
