An emotional Obama: 'They had their entire lives ahead of them'
NBC ^ | 12/14/12 | Michael O'Brien

Posted on 12/14/2012 1:10:50 PM PST by Nachum

An emotional President Barack Obama led the nation in mourning the victims of an elementary school massacre on Friday, speaking from the White House following the shooting in Newtown, Conn.

The president not only pledged to assist investigations into the shooting, but also became openly emotional upon reflecting upon the many school children killed or injured in today's mass shooting.

"The majority of those who died today were children -- beautiful little kids between the ages of 5 and 10-years-old," he said, pausing to wipe away a tear. "They had their entire lives ahead of them -- birthdays, graduations, weddings, kids of their own."

Manipulative, deceit-filled bastard boy ... he had no qualms to allow just born infants be neglected to death when he was seeking higher power in IL. I’d say those little ones he help exterminate back then, opposing doctor care for just born infants who had survived abortion attempt, had ten more years ahead of them had he not help slaughter them! This bastard boy is evil right to his filthy soul.

He is actually a fairly talented actor. He should consider a career on the stage and in movies after he leaves the White House. I understand that a lot of successful actors have Narcissistic Personality Disorder, so this should be a perfect fit.

Remember Bill Clinton at Ron Brown’s funeral? Obama will never be a better actor that Slick. At least Obama wasn’t laughing until he saw a camera.

"They had their entire lives ahead of them -- birthdays, graduations, weddings, kids of their own."

So did every aborted baby.

Effing Psychopomp.

Preying on the emotions of Americans.

Obama is an effing parasite.

Think about it thhuis way, the school and the Connecticut eductation system in a paroxysm of anti gun political correctness, failed to have armed teachers at the school
who were militia minded, and so the school failed to protect
the lives of the 27 individuals who were killed.

GET WITH IT, or bleat like sheep and die, Connecticut.
You have a president who would rather you be bleating sheep.It is his job to make sure you are.

most of these evil demons kill themselves(like this guy), so that wouldn’t help here.

besides, it’s more like a ‘life without parole’ sentence the way it’s done now days.

public stoning would be better.

I have said from the beginning that he practices Denzel Washington’s smile. It’s too perfect.

The comments at NBC are revealing. The histerical calls for banning gun ownership is ramping up. This is just a beginning.

The blood of these innocent kids is on Obama’s hands and everyone who voted for him. The slaughter of the innocent in the womb is a galling monstrous hypocrisy that is now being atoned for. Any move on his part to strip the 2nd Amendment will probably lead to severe domestic conflict. There is no remotely reasonable thing that this fraudulently elected Muslim Brotherhood mole does that I can accept. May God damn him and utterly curse his presidency!!

I just watched an old documentary about Diane Zamora’s trial. She boo-hooed on the witness stand, her lips quivering, but not one real tear. obama wipes a tear like Clinton did.

I disagree with Hussein bashing right now. I watched his statement twice today and he cared that 20 little kids died. He may use it for his purposes later, but today he imagines 20 little dead kids lying in a row.

I’ll bash him when he starts tryng to get rid of guns again, but he cared 20 little kids died.

If Barry the Communist Kenyan Usurper dies mired in his sins, God will surely deal out justice.

Meanwhile, may God in his Infinite Wisdom lead Barack Hussein Soetoro 0dinga Whateve 0bama, and all his demented followers, to repentance and conversion.

Just watched the video on my smartphone. Wasn’t able to view it here. Crocodile tears at best. He appeared to me to be more giddy at the prospect of more gun grabbing legislation than empathetic for the loss of life.

I watched Obama very closely during his remarks. He was wiping the top of his eyelid, not below the eye as you would expect when trying to wipe a tear away. There were no tears. He keep blinking trying to gin up some tears, but it didn’t work. There was no emotion. It was an act. Even before his remarks. I sent my Congressmen an email telling them what to expect: the bodies are still warm and Obama is politicizing this event to reinstate an assault weapons ban.
