Shameless. Utterly shameless. What a master manipulator. How stupid he must think we are.

I can hardly wait to see what demographic they choose for this TOTS R US backdrop.

Four more years of this clown. But you know what? Most Americans are so brain-addled these days, he knows exactly what he´s doing.

Since when is government policy formulated based upon letters from small children?? It´s a sad day for America

I have four granddaughters, ages 10 to 22. I don´t think it would ever have occurred to any of them to write to the president about guns. They might have written about any number of other subjects, but guns????

Does this remind anyone of Jimmy Carter´s supposed bedtime conversation with a very young Amy about "nuclear proliferation"?

Just when you think the agitator-in-chief cannot possibly get any more insultingly cynical, he springs the old "for the children ploy". Shades of Saddam Hussein asking one of HIS human-shield-children if he had "enough milk". Like Hussein, the pathetic ´dear leader of the left´ has NO shame. What a terrible time in the history of this country as we painfully see once again that Elections really DO have consequences.

Why not? We are already being led by children.

Well, those children will never have the RIGHTS the Founding Fathers intended them to have.
Who said "Those who would trade liberty for security will have neither" ?

Get use to it - 4 more years of the most narcissistic human being in America doing whatever he can to ´create his legacy´...

So, wonder if Obama turned those letters over to the cops - as was done by one high school who told the students to write ´anti-violence pledges´ - which were then handed over to police for potential ´crime solving´ via handwriting samples?

Nothing like using a ´tragedy´ to convince the kids to hand over evidence w/o a warrant, eh?

Noted elsewhere today - the White House has just ´doubled´ the required signatures on petitions filed with ´em - before an answer is required. Guess they think a petition for Impeachment couldn´t top that number?

As if...

Just when you think it can´t get any worse. Ø is shameless and, sadly, the sheeple have no clue. If a Republican president pulled this kind of stunt, the MSM would be going berserk.

What would Obama do if the subject was National Dental Care? Hold up a human head with bad teeth? Bad taste is bad taste.

Is this how it works? Perhaps we can get children to write letters about cutting government spending, which currently puts them in debt to the tune of about $50K/person from the moment they are born.

Don´t jihadist suicide bombers surround themselves with children, too?

Where in the HELL is the Republican leadership? They need to be out in force calling him out for this blatant, shameless explotation.

Maybe Obama will finally be seen as having ´jumped the shark´.

Little children are being exploited. By the president of the United States.

They do not understand the Constitution. They do not understand mental illness. They do not understand anything that goes into this complicated issue.

Their emotions are being manipulated and used to further an agenda.

This is despicable.

´Never let a perceived crisis go unexploited´.

Of all the hoked up, phony baloney, fifth rate con jobs politicians have pulled over the years this one takes the cake. This man has no shame and the people to aid and assist him in this kind of mind screw should be driven out of positions of authority.

I have no doubt that Sandy Hook was Obama´s "REICHSTAG FIRE" event.

Who cares what little kids think? I bet I can get a million letters saying they don´t want to go to school. Or maybe they should get ice cream for every meal.

It´s my guess that these letters were the written as classroom projects instigated by the kids´ teachers.

Commenters are ignoring fact that surely 60% or more of these children voted for Obama in 2012. They were not aware that the local Obama for America office used their names, but those votes still counted in the hundreds of voting precincts that went 100% for Obama.

So if they can vote without knowing, they can stand around Obama without knowing the Consitutiion.

Seriously, Obama use of children is an eerie update of Michael Jackson. Weird that the WH would do a reprise of the Neverland Ranch.

Yes, after the Union Thug teachers told them to write specific stuff...what a sham!

Nothing new for liberals. Public schools have been using kids for political purposes for decades. Vietnam War comes to mind. And parents went along with it.

Who? Mexican Kids?

You know those letters are fake.
Any real reporter would be questioning this.

Two of the three letters come from areas where guns are HIGHLY regulated....

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gun_laws_in_the_District_of_Columbia

I have no doubt that there are enough commited liberal useful idiots that would gladly involve their children in a letter writing campaign. I don´t think that would be very difficult for accomplished "organizers."

Yes, our country is run by children. Why shouldn´t they write the laws too?

Now he takes advice from six year olds?

Sharing the same mentality so it´s logical...in his mind.

Crisis actors again?

Disgusting.

The WH should be required to receive 100,000 verified letters before it can respond to them.

An understanding of current social issues are a part of many states´ education standards. So, letters about gun control from children don´t surprise me at all. The social studies lesson was extended to a writing/language lesson and with the inauguration coming up, the President is already the focus of many classrooms. Wonder how many teachers will earn some extra merit pay if one of their student´s letters was chosen.

Are these the same kids that were singing songs of worship about Obama? He´s gonna change it, and rearrange it, Obama´s gonna change the world. Hallelujah, praise be to Obama.

What "uncoached" 8 year old routinely uses the word recommend? Next, we alredy have laws saying we cannot own machine guns, enforce the laws we have. Also, if you wnt to really STOP the violence, get the guns out of the criminals who are NOT suppose to have them and commit 99.9% of the gun crime. Why do they have no answer when we ask them about taking guns out of the hands of criminals??? These letters sound like they were written by parents or teachers and they used the child´s name to do it. How about if we get conservative parents to get THEIR kids to write letter so obama will not infringe on our constitutional rights???? Will they post those letters???

The WH staff must have worked all night to scribble these.

orwell would have been so proud / s off
this indoctrination we are seeing in our schools systems could have and should have been stopped long ago. I worked with my children every day to teach them the truth about this nation, not the garbage being spewed by teachers and new history books. It is amazing what you can find in the library in the old stacks and back rooms, history books written with in years of the events happening and compare them to what is written to day about the same event. If I had told whoppers like that I wouldn´t be able to sit down for a week.
just saying

What about letters of concern from the aborted?

Mmm, mmm, mmm, Barack Hussein Obama.
