Obama´s use of wide-eyed children

shows just how infantile the anti-gun
campaign has become

Telegraph [UK], by Brendan O´Neill

There was something nauseating about the way Barack Obama surrounded himself with children as he unveiled his gun control plans. It looked like emotional blackmail. "Look these innocent babes in the face and tell them guns are good" – that was the implicit message of this cynical, innocence-exploiting press conference, which brought to mind one of the late Wacko Jacko´s weird child-centred peace concerts more than it did a serious Lincoln-style presidential address. What Obama and his advisers appear to have overlooked is that it doesn´t matter one jot what children think of guns, or anything else

"Look these innocent babes in the face and tell them guns are good"

When someone uses a shield, human or otherwise, they should not look surprised when someone actually Strike at it. I told a lady in my office yesterday that I would run down those cute, tow-headed little tykes with a 4x4 if it was necessary to protect the 2nd Amendment...NOTHING is more important than the 2nd Amendment, not those kids, nothing, because nothing else can take place without it. She agreed.

There...I said it. People are getting tired and fed up with constantly being ground at by Progressive attacks. Soon the war of words is going to be replaced with something else.

One wonders why Obama didn´t choose children who survived after-birth "abortions". No, actually, one doesn´t wonder that.

Obamao, the abortion baby killer.
Obamao. the alla akbar killer.
Obamao, the send our kids to war killer.
Only way to protect kids from these planned events is to make schools safe, like office buildings, movie studios, large industrial sites, any shooting range, even many neighborhoods. And what measures does one take in these relatively safe environments?
So damn simple, armed guards, also really helpful, citizens carrying concealed weapons
Remember when certain airlines had concealed to carry guys on board. You did not know who had a gun. The licensed to carry guy could not be detected. Schools can do that with any teacher who wants to qualify to carry. What could be safer?
AND, the funds for each school security need not ever come from the bloated in debt Fed, the money can come from each local education board simply by firing their lazy no good Bored of Education "executive" non teachers in their luxurious buildings downtown....that´s where there´s plenty of wasted money and bloated pensions to grab.

He knows his dim-witted audience. He knows the 65 million people that voted for him do not know human history, and have no clue what former leaders have used props like children.

Ask yourself why now? Heading into his 2nd term why would he go after the guns citizens would use to protect themselves from government goons? We don´t need to look any further than Venezuela for an answer. It is imperative to either confiscate these rifles or ban ammo for them. I´m expecting the latter.

Obama is so pathetic when he attempts to show any emotion around people. He just can´t do it. He is terribly ill at ease and awkward. He only comes alive and is true to himself when he is being his arrogant argumentative condescending self. This is the real Obama. He uses anything in an attempt to pluck at people´s easily duped heart strings. He should be ridiculed for bringing those children up on the stage with him. HE is the one who looked small. He needs to be a man and make his case and not use children to bolster his arguments.

Here´s a good part: "This is probably the first time in history (and let´s hope it´s the last) that a 200-year-old constitution fought for tooth-and-catapult might be rewritten on the basis of what a precocious eight-year-old felt as she watched the evening news.

Modus: Turn the US upsdide down: let foreigners vote in our elections; let the UN tell us what to do; pay for expensive projects in other countries that don´t benefit Americans; let children change the Constitution, etc.

Someone should draw a cartoon of Obama driving a stolen ice cream van, hokey music playing, driving it through a school zone, hanging out the window with his tongue out offering brown cows, nutty buddies and fudge sickles to any kid who will be a prop in his little charade. It´s almost guaranteed the White House enticed those kids to come turn out somehow ie in exchange for an ice cream party or some other goody. Joe Camel got banned for influencing children but not this charlatan.

Obama shows his communist side everyday in the sense of NOT negotiating on anything and never taking no for answer. Kim Jong Il was exactly the same. Bamster is a robot on a mission, much like the never-give-up liquid metal cop from Terminator.

The use of children for politicat purposes reminds me of someone else, back in the 1930´s, that did the same thing. Is that what is in our not to distant future?

As for the 2nd Amendment, I wouldn´t be the bit surprised that there will be some "progressive" start harping about how the 2nd allows for citizens to own firearms, but doesn´t mention the ammunition for it. So, it would be just hunk dory for the government to outlaw the manufacture of ammunition that is not specifically for the military and/or governmnet agencies.

Obama and Stalin both used children as props in their photos. Joe Stalin always had that sweet look and we know what Stalin did. Soviet propaganda was so effective that when Stalin died in 1953 women wept for days and several mothers committed suicide.
Senator Obama voted four times against providing emergency medical aid for babies who survived abortions and that makes him an abortionist.
Obama using children as props in his gun control photo shoot makes me want to laugh.

As far as obama´s plan for taking up guns:he wants a flashy,non-working success to signal to His Morons tht -Wow lookee what I am doing-I am targttingthe Rights sacred cows. No matter if it is all b.s., the Morons appreciate the bling.
As far as the rest of us, he wants someone to take a swing on him or shoot at him. He is riding us.
Axel and Jarett and the rest of the directing Junta know the Obamacare thing is collapsing and will need a dodge to get it on track. An attack would do it.

I was commenting for several years that it will be fascism. On the other hand lenin/stalin/hitler/mao/pol_pot and african cannibals are not that much different, no matter who is owning the industry.
But, all of them LOVE(-d) being photographed with children. You can find online many posters of hitler, stalin, mao (you can continue this list) with kids in their hands and smiles on their ugly mugs (although they were photoshopped to look handsome.

Shame on Mommie and Daddie for using their kiddies as dictation equipment to advance their own antigun agenda. As far as I know an "assault rifle" is a gun that can fire in semi automatic mode as well as full automatic mode. To my knowledge you can not buy a full auto gun anywhere. Just because they "look" like a military full auto assault weapon does not make the a true asault weapon. You can take a VW chasis and put a Corvette body on it. That does not make it a real Corvette does it. Plus from what I heard, the assault weapon looking gun the shooter used to kill kids and adults actually jammed and almost all of the school kids and adults killed were killed with a shotgun. Let´s start talking about stiffer and longer minimum mandatory prison sentences for using a gun in any crime. How about say 50 years minimum prison for using a gun? Deterrence is the first place I would start the discussion on. How about the emphasis be on criminal control laws? Guns are inanimate objects, human beings pull the trigger.

During the 2008 presidential campaign, gun rights author and scholar John Lott recounted meeting Barack Obama for the first time while he was a lecturer at University of Chicago.

When the two met, Lott’s reputation on guns preceded him, and Lott claims Obama said, “I don’t believe people should be able to own guns.”

Read that again, and let it soak in; Barack Obama reportedly said, “I don’t think people should be able to own guns.” In my correspondence with Lott, he stood by his story.

And there’s little reason to doubt Lott’s account, especially when you take Obama’s history of anti-gun legislation into account.

Consider these examples:

1. In a 1998 questionnaire for the Illinois state legislature, Obama said he wanted to “ban the sale or transfer of all sorts of semi-automatic weapons.”

2. From 1998-2001 Obama was on the board of the Joyce Foundation, the “major funder for gun-control research” at that time.

3. Obama opposes concealed carry and always has (every state but Illinois disagrees with him).

4. Obama only sees two “legitimate” purposes for guns: “hunting and target shooting.” This means using guns for self defense is not legitimate. And this goes a long way in explaining Obama’s past support of laws banning the use of guns for self-defense in Illinois, even in one’s own home.

But all these things and more are simply symptoms of a bigger issue—namely, that Obama doesn’t think people should be able to own guns in the first place.

Lott believes Obama’s lip service to the Second Amendment is simply part of an overarching Democrat strategy set forth by pollster Mark Penn, which instructs Dems to say they support the Second Amendment in order get elected and then to do everything they can to chip away at it via legislation and regulation once they’re in office.

Democrats always exploit children when in danger of losing an argument, and there are plenty of willing lady parts willing to make their children serve The Party. Did anyone else notice the spelling on those anti gun letters? Or the way they exactly melded their points with Obie´s? Or the painstakingly ACCURATE memorization of said letters during the Obamagasm Fest? Have no doubt, the individuals that call themselves their "mothers" tossed those kids cynically to service The Party.

It happens now and then. You hear a story so sad, so beautiful, so filled with loss and pain and grief and love, that it makes you cry. Really cry. Two years ago, I was making a grocery run for my family on Memorial Day when a story came on the local NPR station in Oxford, Miss. It was about a father whose son had been killed in action in northwest Afghanistan. The father was Paul Monti; his son was Sergeant Jared Monti. Jared died in Afghanistan trying to save the life of one of his men.

The recent attack on a British soldier by assassins wielding meat cleavers while bystanders looked on raises the question: “Why didn’t anyone try to help the victim?” Because British citizens are prohibited from carrying objects that could be used as “offensive weapons.” While it is well known that Brits cannot carry guns, a lesser known law prohibits any subject of the Queen from carrying a knife of consequence, pepper spray or a stun gun.According to the United Kingdom government website, the online storehouse of British government regulations, it is illegal to:

What would help a lot right now, as the chilling reality of savagery engulfs us, would be a cultural green light to begin calling evil what it is, to begin calling it by its name, to stop dancing around demographics because of the fear someone, somewhere will take offense. There is always someone, somewhere looking for a reason to be offended. Jesse Jackson has fashioned a lucrative career out of being perpetually peeved. It works if you know how to play the game.

The White House on Friday didn’t respond to a report that Attorney General Eric Holder authorized the seizure a Fox News reporter’s phone and email records — and with no daily press briefing scheduled Friday that could mean silence from the administration through the Memorial Day weekend. NBC News reported Thursday that Holder approved the search of Fox News reporter James Rosen’s private emails and phone records in a probe of leaked government information. That revelation came just as the president ordered Holder to review Justice Department guidelines for investigating reporters. White House officials have not yet responded

President Obama’s speech at the National Defense University calling for an end to the war on terror forces the question of who gets to declare peace. The Left wing in our political debate has been agitating for some time to repeal the authorization to use military force that the Congress passed after 9/11. The President boarded the bandwagon yesterday. He vowed he would sign no laws designed to expand the mandate and declared outright that he looks forward “to engaging Congress and the American people in efforts to refine, and ultimately repeal” the congressional mandate to use force.

There is no equal

Ambassador Thomas R. Pickering personifies the State Department mentality that so many conservatives find objectionable. He authored a Global Zero report arguing for unilateral disarmament and then runs to his co-author Chuck Hagel’s defense, saying it doesn’t say what it plainly does. He gets selected for a critical State Department review of Benghazi, doesn’t interview the secretary or high-level advisers, and writes a report identifying no one in particular. He famously replied that it was fine to leave out higher-ups because “because in fact we knew where the responsibility rested.” In a milieu where double-talk, evasion

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.”

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

What´s so interesting about 60 tea partiers protesting the IRS in San Jose, California on Tuesday, May 21st? The fact that this bit of information was conveyed to the protesters by a Department of Homeland Security officer who was also in attendance. What was a DHS agent doing at the San Jose Tea Party protest? (snip) they weren´t just spying on us in San Jose and monitoring us in San Francisco, they were watching us throughout the entire state

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

On “Fox News Sunday” last weekend, White House aide Dan Pfeiffer was asked about President Barack Obama’s whereabouts the night of the Sept. 11 attack in Benghazi. This was the night when we lost our first ambassador in 30 years, and when three other Americans were killed in an attack that lasted all night long at multiple locations within the eastern Libyan city. Since the president is commander in chief, one would think where he was and what he did during such an event would be of obvious public concern.

Mark Levin: "RINO" Issa Didn´t
Investigate IRS Before Because
He "Despises The Tea Party"

MARK LEVIN: So why didn´t Chairman Issa hold an investigative hearing a year ago? Why didn´t Chairman Camp, all Republicans, hold an investigative hearing a year ago, and all the other tripping over themselves right now? I´ll tell you why. Because the establishment Republicans, the RINO Republicans, despise the Tea Party. They despise the conservative movement. We exist to be managed, to be shuttled to the polling place, to vote for their candidates. The Karl Roves of the world, and all the rest of them. They fight us in the primaries, they fight us at the grassroots.
