Just hours after the mass shooting at Umpqua Community College in Rosenberg, Oregon last week, President Obama stepped to the microphones at the White House to deliberately politicize the tragedy in the name of gun control.
“Somebody, somewhere will comment and say, Obama politicized this issue. Well, this is something we should politicize,” he said, admittedly without all of the facts surrounding the situation. "We should be changing these [gun control] laws."
Now the community affected by the shooting is saying no thanks to an official Obama visit, which is scheduled for later this week. Why? They don't want Obama standing on the graves of their dead for political reasons.
President Barack Obama will travel to Oregon this week to visit privately with families of the victims of last week's shooting at a community college.
However the trip has angered locals in Roseburg who say Obama is 'not welcome' in the town because the visit will be nothing but a 'grandstand for political purposes'.
Lee Stranahan has the video:
No word yet on who exactly President Obama plans to visit while he's in town or how long he'll stay.
I think Douglas County voted for Mitt far more than Obama.
Douglas County Oregon voted 65/35 for Romney
0bama will think that they just do not understand him, and that if he goes, he can try to help them to understand. They are just confused, in his mind.
David Jaques speaks for his newspaper’s readership.
Most of Oregon is conservative but the high population areas like Portland is teaming with the vile libs like a virus in a petri dish.
Having an antichrist attending a loved one’s funeral doesn’t seem like a good idea.
You said it.
That is what I heard
Mostly correct. They are not “like a virus”.
They are a virus. It feeds on it’s victim/host until dead and then moves on to the next source of free stuff.
*rme*
What a silly statement. Have you forgotten those red / blue maps? Go look up Oregon's. Outside Portland / Eugene it's all red.
He is not coming as it was a half white/half black muslim who shot christians.
If you would like more information about what's happening in Oregon, please FReepmail me.
I lost my Oregon list when my computer crashed last year, so please send me your name by FReepmail if you want to be on this list.
It’s not just hearsay!!!!
Why not set up a blockade with signs that say “YOU. SHALL. NOT. PASS ! “
I gather that our Executive Anus will fly in.
Dunno how big the Roseburg airport is but it would be a shame if citizens drove out on the runway, parked their cars all in a row across it, and stepped inside the terminal for a Starbucks. (cough)
