| As a society, our first task must be to care for our children -- to shield them from harm and give them the tools they need not only to pursue their dreams, but to help build this country. That is how we will be judged. And in the wake of the tragedy in Newtown, it´s clear we have a long way to go. That´s why, last month, I asked Vice President Biden to lead an effort to come up with concrete steps we can take right now to keep our kids safe, help prevent mass shootings,

Hey nitwit: 1) The previous assault weapons ban was shown to have zero effect on crime rates. 2) Violent crime rates in the US have halved over the last 20 years coinciding with nationwide easing of gun restrictions and concealed carry rights.
Stop the distractions, and focus on the economy.
Signed, Joe America

FTA: keeping an irresponsible, law-breaking few from doing harm.
If you recognize that those doing harm are law-breakers, you recognize that no law is going to stop the killing.

Barky is not interested in protecting your kids. If he was his proposals would be completely different, as: Guarding your children as his already are. Locking up lunatics. Making MHP´s more responsible for reporting lunatics. (Doctors have the authority and responsibility to take away your driving privileges. There is a parallel here) Making law enforcement (like sheriff Dupnik the Dipstick in tucson) responsible for enforcing existing laws. Dismantle the gun-running holder DoJ. What he is interested in is disarming the general population, like his (and valjar´s) mentor and hero, chairman mao.

The first task of a society is not to protect its children. It is to protect itself from all enemies foreign and domestic. Barack Obama is an enemy of American society. He is a far greater danger to America and America´s children than the rare, isolated spree killer. Barack Obama does not respect or like America. He has promised to "fundamentally transform the United States of America."
If we are going to begin universal background checks on gun buyers, it is certainly time -past time- to do a background check on the individual calling himself Barack Obama. It is simply amazing that a man about whom Americans know practically nothing that has been documented continues to occupy the presidency of the United States. If the Republic survives, as it probably will, future historians will look back, scratch their heads, and devote their careers to attempting to answer the question of how such a thing could have happened. Did the American people simply go mad for a period of 8 years? How could they have done such a thing to themselves? Didn´t they realize that the presidency is too important to entrust to a mysterious stranger who doesn´t share American values? Where was the watchdog press, the famous Fourth Estate, in the nation´s hour of need?

About the children, huh....
Young as they are, those with baby brothers and sisters at home, would be absolutely traumatized to know that as a senator Obama championed partial birth abortion, the brutal slaughter of babies who make it through abortion.
“President Obama voted against the Born Alive Infant Protection Act four times, horrifyingly voting against protecting babies who survived abortion and voting in favor of leaving them to die."
So murdering children through abortions is ok, according to the empty suit.

Why didn´t he save taxpayers some money and just ask Malia what she thought about Sandy Hook? /s Incompetents always act this way when their fecklessness is on parade - they show great concern for things that they have no power over to pretend that they are vital. Meanwhile, Iran continues its nuclear quest, virtually unabated; China steals our military know-how and is building a large salt water navy; our economy remains stagnant; unemployment leaves a demoralized and frightened citizenry and the very children he met with yesterday are being robbed of their futures.

Yep. It is past time. The killer of school-age children MUST be abolished. It is time to ban school buses, and ban them NOW. We cannot sit idly by and watch group after group slaughtered by this device which has no conscience.
As to senseless slaughter: just how many individuals have been killed in Chicago since Zero took office? And what kind of gun laws does Chicago have?
What a monstrous perversion we have here. The nation is mobilized for the purpose of what?
Protecting the federal government, that´s what!

The arrogance and ignorance of 0bama is appalling. He sends his girls to an expensive private school that has several armed guards with real guns and real bullets. 0bama just changed the law for him to have secret service protection for the rest of his life. Before he changed this law, he and Mooch would only have security for ten years after out of office. And you know these secret service all have real guns with real bullets. Yet 0bama is such a hypocrite that he wants NO guns in the schools of we commoners. No, we should not have guns, just 0bama and his girls. What is wrong with these horrid and wretched people?

Left-wing magazine Mother Jones made news this week with a report based on a secret recording of a Feb. 2 meeting of Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell with campaign strategists. Federal and state law prohibits publication of information acquired through secret recording, but a 2001 Supreme Court ruling gives publishers like Mother Jones a get-out-of-jail-free card. But whoever taped the private conversation can’t wiggle off the hook so easily. Whoever bugged the meeting room or secretly placed a recording device will be in serious legal trouble — unless he or she was one of the strategists.

A Michigan high school canceled a speech by former Sen. Rick Santorum after teachers became outraged over his opposition to gay marriage and threatened to stage protests and a possible work stoppage. Santorum had been invited to deliver a upcoming speech on leadership by the Young Americans for Freedom chapter at Gross Pointe South High School. But the speech was canceled on Monday after the school district’s superintendent heard from angry teachers. “It’s a sad day when liberal educators are allowed to influence young minds – extending free speech rights only to those who share their liberal views,” Santorum said

Obama said America needs to start enrolling 4-year-olds to make sure the children are “better prepared for the demands of the global economy” and to help parents save on "child-care costs." After saying the United States needs to “equip our citizens with the skills and training” to fill jobs in manufacturing, energy and infrastructure, Obama said, “And that has to start at the earliest possible age.”

"I think the president has shown he is willing to demagogue an issue and that it is ultimately going to backfire," Cruz said in an interview on Laura Ingraham´s radio show. Cruz´s comments come as Congress debates passing a set of gun control measures meant to reduce gun violence and prevent shooting massacres similar to the one at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown, Connecticut.

During Barack Obama´s presidency there have been 32 background checks for gun purchases every minute. Since February of 2009, the first full month of Obama´s presidency, there have been 70,291,049 background checks for gun purchases, according to data released by the FBI. Using February 1, 2009 as our starting date, and March 31, 2013 as our end date, (the latest data from the FBI) Obama has been president for 1,520 days. That equates to 36,480 hours, or 2,188,800 minutes. Divide the 70,291,049 background checks by 2,188,800 minutes and you get approximately 32 checks for gun purchases every minute!

As he rolls out his fiscal 2014 budget on Wednesday, a new survey finds that Americans haven’t felt this confident about President Obama’s handling of the economy since his first year in office. The Gallup poll, which sampled more than 1,000 Americans, found that 57 percent say they have a “great deal or a fair amount of confidence” in Mr. Obama to do the right thing on the economy. That’s up from just 50 percent last year and hasn’t been this high since it hit 71 percent in 2008. Trust in congressional Republicans, on the other hand, remains low.

Is she lying about her delivery date? Is she lying about her pregnancy? Why did she wear that dress that made people compare her to an orca whale? All of these are very valid questions, but bring to light another issue: Isn’t there some one else who’s also pregnant right now? Some one who is substantially more important than Kim Kardashian?

Don’t hide behind a procedural action to prevent a vote. That’s the wrong thing to do, and that’s how the president clearly feels.”

The White House celebration of Memphis Soul music in the East Room--which included special guest appearances by Queen Latifah and Justin Timberlake--is likely to rile Obama´s Republican foes.

Although the first votes on gun -control legislation have yet to be cast, by some measures the National Rifle Association has already won. Obama’s ambitious plans to ban assault weapons and limit magazine capacities are off the table, while the NRA suggested it could support the most likely outcome -- expanded background checks -- as recently as 1999. The NRA claims that the president’s efforts have triggered a fundraising surge and boosted its membership from 4 million to nearly 5 million.

"There was some hope that once the Supreme Court ruled in July, and then once an election occurred there would be a sense that, ´This is the law of the land, let´s get on board, let´s make this work.´"
