How about an empty podium to represent the loss of real leadership in the Country for the past 8 Fuc*ing years.

FUBO

And a third for Clint Eastwood’s stage buddy representing Zer0!!

[terycarl]

In his tear jerking speech he mentioned that those victims were denied their Constitutional “right to life” and he just vetoed a bill denying funding for planned butcherhood.

Isn't it the President's guest box, with the First Lady as his guest?

[Renegade]

The Brown Clown has lost his mind!

[rockrr]

Then let’s make this a true honor and leave all the seats empty?

[Rainier1789]

How many of those victims would still be alive if Empty Suit’s new regulations had been followed? Yep. An empty chair.

More restrictions on the law-abiding which have no effect on crime.

[Zakeet]

How about an empty balcony to honor the victims butchered in baby-killing abortion centers!

[doug from upland]

How about an empty podium.

[SGCOS]

of course there will be 4 empty chairs for the murdered in Benghazi..

As Al Capone says to Elliot Ness in the movie Untouchables: You got nothing, nothing.

IOW, he has nothing else to say: foreign policy in shambles, check, economy in shambles, check, Obamacare in shambles, check on and on. Only thing he has left to drone on about is gun control.

I wish once he is done, the house sergeant at arms locks the door and the SC direct he be taken into custody as an enemy of the state.

What about the millions of time per year that citizens use a firearm to save themselves or their families from the criminal element?

How about an empty seat for the 3,000 babies killed per day by abortion?

[Dogbert41]

Let's not look at what Obama and the Dems with the media cover up has done to Christianity in the Middle East and North Africa!

[neocon1984]

The focus on gun control is not about gun control or executive orders. It’s about distracting people from the fact that Americans are dying from leftist political correctness at the hands of Jihadis.

[jimbug]

Well, considering we have had an empty seat behind the desk in the Oval Office for these 7 years, no big deal.

[spintreebob]

Paul Ryan controls the seating in the House. He should place empty chairs on the stage to represent babies wantonly killed.

And protectors of embassies who are not supported in doing their job.

Then there should be a chair with an empty suit.....

[CodeToad]

Someone needs to label that chair “Chicago Dead”.

[jazusamo]

That’d be a hoot, if only Ryan had the guts to put an empty suit in a chair onstage.
