Danbury Mayor Mark Boughton Tweeted the helicopters people heard over Danbury today were an advance team setting up for a possible presidential visit early next week. "We don´t know when at this point," Boughton said. The helicopters visited Danbury Municipal Airport and other locations in the city. The mayor didn´t know if the helicopters visited Newtown yet. "Those helicopters you hear are the Presidential advance team. No details on what day the President is coming," was one of the mayor's Tweets.

I was wondering how long it would take for Zero´s photo op. Can´t he let them mourn in peace?

One more photo-op to add to his scrapbook (and scrapbook IS the operative word) Gee, I hope all that posing and speechifying doesn´t make him late for his Hawaii vacation..What a guy! What sacrifice!

Very poor taste. Better for Obama to attend a memorial in Washington.
Besides, my guess is that the town is populated by one percenters.

That is the last thing those people need. They need space, family and time to start the healing process, which in this case will be most difficult. For him to go and turn this into the theater of the absurd will only make this worse.

Enough of this whole spectacle! Yes, it is a tragedy for those involved. But terrible things happen every day. On a scale of national importance, it is nowhere near as important as the deaths in Benghazi, which got virtually zero attention from the media.

Somebody who knows some geography needs to calculate how many miles that is from Staten Island as the crow or helicopter flies. You don´t want him to come into contact with any of the people from Sandy that he promised to help.

Disgusting, repulsive, hideous, repugnant, vile...sickening.

One insane person commits a terrible, evil crime. With all due respect, this is NOT a national tragedy. Stop the exploitation, please. We the People are not responsible for this. The only people this involves and to which it is a TRUE tragedy are the ones who lost loved ones and/or friends and the family of the shooter. If one doesn´t know those involved or the victims, it is sick to enmesh oneself and act as if one personally lost someone. Empathy, certainly, but enmeshment, no. We have got to stop this "all in" mentality.

This one shooter is not indicative of the people of Connecticut nor the United States. We are not responsible for him and what he did, period. He was ill. It is very upsetting to see how easily some of my countrymen can be manipulated. And yes, with all this said, I wish those involved some grace and peace, if that is even possible in this horrific situation.

The President will need to schedule a photo-op
in Chicago EVERY week of the year. Exactly what purpose does it serve the victim´s families to have him visit? With Obama, it´s all for show and for politics.

He may use the opportunity to propose new assault weapon sales ban as well as outlaw existing assault weapons. To paraphrase Rahm Emmanuel, never let a tragedy go to waste.

Oh, WTH. Land the damn helicopter on the school playground and do it up right. Wowser, what a photo op that would be. Who will hold up the cut onion just before he prances down the stair? Mooch?

What´s Obama going to say about that?

The Media, the media,the emotionally guilty media. Fox has been the worst. Friday, I thought Meghan was very good in her reporting, but 24/7 has been very wearing on all viewers who have lost loved ones recently.

Is the media now espousing religion,prayer?

Why must the Producers of the Cables all feel compelled to intrude upon the grief of a small town whose citizens are suffering so?

At first , I was going to say that not even Obama would be so craven and insensitive as to intrude on the unspeakable grief of the families for political gain.
But, then I came to my senses.
Only Obama would be so craven and insensitive that he would dance on little coffins for political gain.
Maybe he doesn´t know that the election is over ?
He doesn´t have to campaign 24 /7.
Or is this his filthy way of trying to pressure Boehner ?
BTW- I broke down and watched Barry yesterday.
He did not cry or emote-in fact, he was bloodless.
He rubbed his eye and
the media described that as crying.

Just announced, Obama will attend a memorial there tomorrow. SHAME !
May the mourners turn their backs on him.

This goes beyond cruel. These families haven´t had a chance to comprehend what´s happened. I´m sure most of the parents are still expecting to see their child come tumbling down the stairs. Then a tidal wave of grief. He´s turning what should be a solemn moment into a spectacle. This is pure evil.

It´s hard to find that perfect backdrop like a historic New England church or a statue of Abraham Lincoln when you are playing the role of a saint. Maybe Hollywood can help with special effects and make up. They have been so supportive in the past. Lights, back lit halos, artificial tears. They can do it all.

Did he send out emails asking families who lost children if they wanted the chance to a meet & greet with the Won? It wouldn´t surprise me if he did.

I´m assuming you forgot to include the cost of that Meet & Greet #34. Cause I´m sure there is a price.

Parents of the slain are inconsolable as it is; now they have to put up with the idjet so he can again put up his middle finger to his eye.

The Obama administration is engaged in a broad push to make more home loans available to people with weaker credit, an effort that officials say will help power the economic recovery but that skeptics say could open the door to the risky lending that caused the housing crash in the first place. President Obama’s economic advisers and outside experts say the nation’s much-celebrated housing rebound is leaving too many people behind, including young people looking to buy their first homes and individuals with credit records weakened by the recession.

PALM CITY, Fla. – President Obama on Sunday displayed the freedom that comes with not having another election ahead of him, golfing with Tiger Woods in an enclave of privilege here along Florida’s blustery Atlantic coast. Since his reelection in November, Obama has been talking about the perils facing America’s middle class, highlighted in his State of the Union address last week. On Friday he visited a public high school in his hometown of Chicago, where he spoke in personal terms about the need to reduce gun violence and create jobs in the country’s troubled urban areas.

Obama summons congressional
leaders for ‘fiscal cliff’ talks

President Obama summoned congressional leaders to a Friday summit at the White House in a last-ditch effort to protect taxpayers, unemployed workers and the fragile U.S. recovery from severe austerity measures set to hit in just four days. Also Thursday, House Speaker John A. Boehner (R-Ohio) announced that he would call the House back into session this weekend. And in perhaps the most significant development, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) for the first time was engaged directly in talks with the White House. He signaled an interest in cutting a deal.

With financial negotiations all but halted, President Obama was headed out of Washington on Friday evening for his annual winter vacation in Hawaii. Obama is likely to have a short trip this year; aides said he is scheduled to return Wednesday, a day after Christmas, to resume discussions with congressional leaders on how to avert the fiscal cliff. “Merry Christmas – because we didn’t get this done, I’ll see you next week,” Obama said after telling reporters he still had hope of striking a deal to prevent taxes from rising on the middle class next year.

The public got its first look Thursday at Lois Lerner, who has gone from faceless IRS bureaucrat to the face that launched what feels like 1,000 congressional hearings and conspiracy theories. But it was only a brief sighting since she didn´t stay long at a House hearing to further probe her role in how some IRS workers came to target conservative groups seeking tax-exempt status. (Snip)She did make a short statement to declare her innocence, however. Lerner´s motivation was more transparent than much of what the IRS has done in connection with this controversy. She was determined to

When you get right down to it, the political targeting and stalling of tax-exempt applications by the IRS was an effort to defund the Tea Party. Rick Santelli, one of the Tea Party founders and my CNBC colleague, was the first to make this point. I’ve taken it a step further: The IRS was taking the Tea Party out of play for the 2012 election, as it looked to avoid a repeat of 2010 and another Tea Party landslide.There are a lot of numbers out there.

Eva Longoria is backing up her beauty with a whole lot of brain. The actress graduated with a master´s degree Wednesday. Longoria, 38, took home a real degree (not an honorary one) in Chicano studies from Cal State Northridge, where she physically attended classes for three years, according to TMZ. "Big day today!!! Very excited to graduate for my master´s degree in Chicano studies! You´re never too old or too busy to continue your education!" the actress wrote on her Who Say site Wednesday, sharing loads of pics of her big day, posing with her family, cohorts and diploma.

President Obama on Thursday nominated Victoria Nuland, a State Department official involved in the editing of the administration´s talking points on Benghazi, to be the next assistant secretary of state for European and Eurasian affairs. Nuland, a career foreign service officer who was until recently State´s top spokesperson, had long been expected to be nominated the post to replace Philip Gordon, who Obama picked to serve as Middle East coordinator for the National Security Council. Nuland´s nomination -- which requires Senate confirmation -- could come under scrutiny from Republicans who see her as playing a central role in shaping

Conservative radio host Mark Levin is very skeptical of the idea that President Obama had absolutely no idea about the IRS tea party targeting before the story broke in the news mere weeks ago. Levin declared adamantly that it is a “flat-out, bald-faced lie” that Obama didn’t know beforehand, citing prior reports by a few conservative news outlets picking up on the news well before the 2012 presidential election. Levin said, “I don’t believe for two seconds that Obama wasn’t aware of this.”

Anthony Weiner’s New York mayoral candidacy was only made more improbable today after he revealed that he visited a Houston psychiatric facility following his resignation from Congress in 2011. Haunted by scandal surrounding his sexually explicit online communications with women, the Democratic former congressman sought treatment for his compulsive behavior from mental health professionals at the Gabbard Center. According to its website, the facility provides “3-day outpatient psychiatric evaluation,” particularly to “professionals who are in personal or professional crises.” While Weiner did not disclose
