| On NBC´s Meet The Press over the weekend, David Gregory was quite confrontational with the Vice President of the National Rifle Association over the organization´s idea of putting armed security guards in every school in America. But even as Gregory mocked the NRA for the idea, he seems to see nothing wrong with sending his own kids to a school that has armed security guards each school day. Introducing the NRA´s security guard proposal, Gregory confronted NRA VP Wayne LaPierre saying, "You blamed Hollywood and the gaming industry. But never once did you concede

Wow, couldn´t see that coming. I assumed David´s kids all went to DC public schools and were above average.......Yuck, yuck. My New Years wish is to knock the smirk right off his face.

So, why are armed guards good for the President, Mayor Emanuel, and NBC’s David Gregory, but not the rest of us?
Because they are special snowflakes. /s

It would be a good article to publish the names of the "Elites" in our society who send their kids to schools with armed security guarding them- I could put that listing together myself just on conjecture- but, that would not be very journo.

The condescending, rude and insulting Mr. Gregory is a prime example of why NBC Universal Media, LLC is now considered, by multitudes across the fruited plain, as an official enemy of "truth, justice and the American Way."

The ruling class does not have to follow the same rules as the great unwashed. So when we are trying to survive the mess this administration will be heaping on us they will go about their merry way because they are exempt.

It pays to read what Mr. LaPierre really said in his press conference. He called for police in schools, the armed guards are until that could be done.
The media will never accurately report what´s said if it doesn´t fit their biases.

Not only does the French speaking David Gregory send his kids to a private, guarded school, but HE has security every step of the way at his Network---try to walk into THAT building without various checks by guys with guns. Like so many of the high and mighty, or even the low (Roseanne Barr), THESE PEOPLE lived in a bubble and are clueless. Disgusting....and he believes every word he says, by the way.

The NRA needs to come out and use reverse psychology on the left. Announce that all schools that currently use armed guard should disarm immediately and watch the left go nuts.

What is surprising about a liberal demanding that others do as he says, not as he does. In every area of life, from schools for their children, to their own private residences, to their armed guards and personal firearms, to the vehicles they drive, to their private fortunes and (lack of) charitable contributions, to their condemnation of everyone else as being “racist”, sexist and homophobic etc., to their never ending accusation that everyone but themselves is a “hypocrite”, Liberals are a transparent as the emperor with no clothing.

You will do as I say because I am part of the state controlled media we talk out of both sides of out mouths. We say one thing with one breath and in another breath say something else. The stupid people of America prolly were glued to their idiot boxes agreeing with that poor excuse of a human being and were never told about this special person sending his child to a school with armed guards. It´s like the state controlled media does NOT care about the public schools protecting their students. His selfish concerns are about his children and no one else. Hey stupid American´s keep supporting n.b.c. and the rest of the state controlled media!! What a bunch of looooooossssseerrrrssss you stupid American´s are!!! Don´t like being called "stupid American´s" then STOP listening to the god forsaken state controlled media and don´t let them make fun of you for wanting to protecting your children and then turn around and keep it a secret that their children attend a school with armed guards while yours are in schools with no armed guards and are standing in harms way!! HYPOCRATES!!!

They don´t just have one security guard at the high end private school in D.C., but reportedly have eleven security guards plus a secret service detail there.
Just another instance of a liberal mouthpiece pushing what amounts to a double standard to a very low information population.

Too bad that the NRA did not do their homework, as if they did they could have literally blown Gregory away on national TV for everyone to see.
Once Gregory had mocked the NRA school security guard idea, LaPierre could have come back with the following facts, Gregory´s kids attend a high end private school in D.C., where the tuition is $33,000.00 per student per year, and that the school has up to eleven police officers who work at that school as security guards, armed no doubt, along with the fact that there is also a US Secret Service detail at that school as Obama´s two daughters also attend that school. Obviously Gregory, a liberal mouthpiece was pushing a big time double standard, and the NRA could have brought that fact to the nations attention.

That seems to be the typical mindset of so many on the left..."Do as I say, not as I do." It´s laughable and ridiculous. All these high and mighty people have the means to see they are well protected - whether in Hollywood or DC. We mere mortals have to rely on our various law enforcement agencies to come to our rescue when we are threatened. I guess we really aren´t important enough to possess the means to be able to protect ourselves in our own homes. What arrogant people they are.

You know like when that Marine stood up and asked some liberal, lifer politician a question and the pol said that he actually had the right to school his kids. THANK YOU, the Marine spat back at him. I sure would love to see the punks in the anchor seat, mouth off to the wrong guy who would rightly jump down their throats. He would get a stand up cheer from Americans who used to work for a living.

An IRS supervisor working in Washington told congressional investigators that she personally reviewed applications from groups for tax-exempt status, in testimony that appears to show the agency’s scrutiny of conservative groups extended beyond the confines of the office in Cincinnati. Holly Paz, who was a supervisor in the Internal Revenue Service’s tax-exempt status division, indicated during an interview with congressional investigators that she did review such applications, but indicated that she believed “tea party” meant political advocacy in general — not necessarily conservative groups.

The Supreme Court ruled today in Arizona v. Inter Tribal Council that federal law does not allow states the option of requiring voters to prove they are American citizens when they register to vote. The National Voter Registration Act of 1993 (NVRA, or “Motor Voter”) creates a standardized national system for registering to vote in federal elections. It allows for registration three ways: (1) in person, (2) when you get your driver’s license, or (3) by mail. The Election Assistance Commission (EAC, created by a later federal law in 2002)

WASHINGTON — The National Security Agency sweeps up data on millions of cellphones and Internet communications under secret court orders. But as it mounts a rigorous defense of its surveillance, the agency has disclosed new details that portray its efforts as tightly controlled and limited in scope, while successful in thwarting potential plots. On Sunday, officials said that though the NSA is authorized to collect "geolocational" information that can pinpoint the location of callers, it chooses not to.

t looked bad last week, but it looks much, much worse now. The federal government has been spying and lying. The only comfort is that, apparently, it´s been largely incompetent at both: Nobody believes the lies, and the spying wasn´t even able to catch the Tsarnaev brothers. Not long ago, the Director of National Intelligence assured us that the federal government does not "wittingly" spy on Americans. That has turned out to be a lie.

Perhaps a suddenly firearm-friendly President Obama can put in a good word for Jared Marcum. In April, Marcum, an eighth-grader at Logan Middle School in Logan, W. Va., was arrested when he refused to take off his NRA t-shirt. The New York Daily News reports: The clothing kerfuffle began when Marcum wore a shirt bearing the NRA’s logo and a hunting rifle. As he stood in line in the cafeteria, a teacher ordered him to either change shirts or turn it inside out. Marcum declined and was sent to the office, where an officer

Syria is turning out to be a sort of Spanish Civil War of our age, with Hezbollah and Iran playing the role of fascist Italy and Germany, and the Islamic nations and jihadists that of Stalin’s Russia, as the moderates disappear and the messy conflict becomes a proxy war for greater powers, with worse to come. There were always problems for the Obama administration intervening in Syria besides the usual bad/worse choices in the Middle East between authoritarianism and Islamic extremism and the president’s own preference for sonorous sermons rather than rapid action

Amid a steady rise of backlash, Edward Snowden, the 29-year-old former National Security Agency contractor who was the source of a spring of leaks about the agency´s surveillance methods, conducted a live chat on The Guardian´s website Monday morning. Judging from some of the pointed questions he´s been asked and the reaction to newly leaked revelations over the past few days, it´s clear that much of the sympathy and support Snowden had built up for his early exposures is eroding. Many Americans supported his decision to leak information about a pair of National Security Agency surveillance programs, which, he detailed, gathered information

Five months into his second term, allies and enemies are as confounded as ever about who President Obama really is. Is he the dyed-in-the-wool liberal that his biggest supporters and critics suggest? Or is he a pragmatic, even cynical, politician who cares more for his popularity than taking risks for his ideological goals or living up to his rhetoric? Even in the short period since his reelection, Obama has provided evidence to support conflicting interpretations. His efforts to pass immigration reform, the unsuccessful push for stricter gun controls and tax hikes on high earners buttress the case for Obama-as-ideologue.

Politico’s Playbook has an excerpt from a new Ryan Lizza piece from the New Yorker that is not yet online. It contains a passage on the back-and-forth between labor and the Chamber that has a quote from a Rubio staffer that is going to raise eyebrows, to say the least: “There are American workers who, for lack of a better term, can’t cut it. There shouldn’t be a presumption that every American worker is a star performer. There are people who just can’t get it, can’t do it, don’t want to do it. And so you can’t obviously discuss that publicly.” Here is the entire context:

Iran is preparing to send 4,000 troops in to Syria to support Syrian President Bashar al-Assad in the wake of America´s announcement it will be providing ´military aid´ to the country´s Muslim rebels. President Barack Obama made the pledge earlier this week after the U.S. claimed it found ´conclusive evidence´ Assad´s regime has used chemical weapons against the rebel forces--which includes the most extreme Sunni Islamists--and has called for Britain and France to back the move. While Britain hasn´t made a guarantee either way as yet, more than 350 Royal Marines are being sent to Jordan

During his interview with ABC’s Jonathan Karl this morning, Rubio didn’t even seem to understand what that meant. “Are you being played by the Democrats?” asked Karl. “Is Chuck Schumer playing you?” “I don’t — I quite frankly, I don’t even know what that means,” Rubio replied. “Is he using you?” Karl continued. “Is he using you to try to accomplish something that the Democrats want and is not — not a conservative bill?” Rubio responded that immigration reform was a bi-partisan issue that “all Americans
