Make the sunshine and well definitely put you on the top of our christmas list. See you a little bit later. Lets talk about the redskins right now. The state of the skins, looking much brighter these days. Five wins in a row, but, you know, we still got work to do. Its far from over as far as getting into the playoffs. Coming up next, the Philadelphia Eagles and weve got dave ross who is going to break it down. A big game day, Epic Proportions two days before christmas and were talking playoffs. I know can you imagine . Playoffs its been a long time, since 2007. We think rgiii is going to play today. He has been cleared to play in this matchup, so why wouldnt he play . We expect him to be there. Last time these two teams played, rgiii was pretty good, only 14 of 15 with 4 touchdown passes, with a 61yarder here to santana moss. Redskins dominated 316. Nick foles has come away since then, only won one game grant as a team this year. Nowhere to go but up yeah, rocky start. Seems like this win, they are not taking these guys lightly. I dont think anyones trying to take a big picture look at it right now. We can do that after the season when were all happy. But, you know, right now, i think everyones focused on one game at a time. Thats the attitude you have to have. No ones in the locker room jumping around, excited that were on a win streak and were controlling our own destiny. Everyones still focused on what we have to do and everyones still feeling sore from the game, so thats a good thing. Busy day of football starts at 11 30 with pregame, fox nfl at noon, then of course the game, 1 00 at philadelphia. Following that one, well have giants and ravens at 4 25. Throw away the remote and keep it on fox 5 all day long. Right, because you got other stuff coming up as well. Kevin and rock coming in studio from 106. 7 the fan, all things redskins,. The whole nine yards. Thanks, dave. See you later. Moving to the news now, the last of the Connecticut School shooting victims was laid to rest this weekend. Services were held for 7yearold josephine gay. She was born in columbia, maryland. 6yearold ana grace marquezgreene was also remembered. And 6yearold Emilie Parker was buried in utah. Donations are still pouring in from around the world. All the children of newtown were invited to choose from thousands of toys. The united way of western connecticut says the official fund reached 2. 6 million this morning. Also this morning the only thing that stops a bad guy with a gun is a good guy with a gun. Both support and outrage continue to swirl across the country, two days after the nra released its statement on the School Shooting and gun control debate. Regardless of which side of the debate youre on, the end goal is to end gun violence. Now, this weekend in Columbia Heights, a crowd gathered for a vigil aimed at doing just that. Fox 5s Lauren Dimarco was there and has this report. Reporter the vigil in Columbia Heights and march to a nearby church were held in honor of the 20 children and six School Staff Members killed in newtown, connecticut last week. Local School Teacher trish collard and her husband tim were among those who gathered to call more attention to gun violence. Sometimes tragic things can lead to some momentus things. Reporter president obama appointed Vice President joe biden to head the Administration Response to the shooting, calling for swift action and a ban on the sale of assault weapon and high capacity ammunition magazines. But the demonstrators are gathering in part as response to this statement from the nra. With all the money in the federal budget, cant we afford to put a Police Officer in every Single School . To me, simply adding more guns is not the right answer. Were seeing murderers and murdersuicides, Mass Shootings on all different levels. To think that somebody as big as a National Rifle association thinks we should add more guns to that equation, to arm our teachers, to send to our Public School system is completely preposterous. Reporter eddie winegarden is a director for the project against gun violence. Hes also a victim. His mother was shot and killed by her husband in front of him, when he was just two years old. He supports an allout gun ban. Australia led a great example, where they actually purchased back weapons and gave fair dollar amount to the people that had them as they initiated their ban. I think thats something that could take place in this country. Reporter others here believe there should be a way to cut down on the violence while still protecting the second amendment. I think this is not going to be one of those things where were looking at too bad, then two months later, nobody thinks about it. I think people finally are realizing that there has to be some steps that are taken that dont interfere with the right to bear arms. That was fox 5s lauren i did dimarco. There have been more than 100 shooting deaths in the United States in the week since the tragedy in newtown. Dc police are still on the hunt for a killer. Two people were killed in northeast around 2 00 yesterday morning. One of them was found in a car, the other lying in the middle of the road. 44yearold Raymond Harris died from his injuries.

Police are offering a 25,000 reward for more information that would lead to an arrest in this case. Just over eight days until we reach the socalled fiscal cliff, the president and lawmakers have left dc for the holiday break without a deal in place. President obama maintains he hes met republicans halfway in negotiations, but thats still not good enough for republicans, which means the future for tax cuts is still uncertain. Heres the latest. Reporter dc may be shutting down for christmas, but the clock hasnt stopped running and the fiscal cliff is closer than ever. No deal was reached this week to keep taxes from going up for everyone at the end of the year. House Speaker John Boehner says hes hopeful a deal can be reached, but in his weekly address, he continued hammering away at president obama. This was the year the size of our debt, all 16 trillion of it, surpassed the size of our entire economy. Its a grim milestone, one of many well have to bear if we dont come to grips with it. The president s solution of raising tax rates would still leave red ink for as far as the i can see. Reporter president obama landed in ha for the christmas break. On friday, the president said he believes its still possible to avoid the fiscal cliff, but also acknowledging the political reality by pushing a scaledback plan for cutting taxes on the middle class. Even though democrats and republicans are arguing about whether those rates should go up for the wealthiest individuals, all of us, every single one of us, agrees that tax rates shouldnt go up for the other 98 of americans, which includes 97 of small businesses. Reporter the president wants that middle class tax cut and he wants to preserve Unemployment Benefits that are set to expire at the end of the year. In washington, steve sintani, fox news.
