White House: Obama’s Trip To Oregon Will ‘Not be About Politics’

President Obama promises to politicize mass shootings as a way to demand more gun control. But the White House says that’s not what he’ll be doing as he visits the victims of the college shooting in Oregon on Friday.

According to the White House, Obama will be traveling to meet and console the victims and no public remarks are expected.

“I think in this instance, on Friday morning, the trip would not be about politics, but that trip would be about merely consoling the families who were so profoundly affected by that tragedy.”

Earnest added that the visit was convenient for the president, since he would already be on the West Coast for a series of fundraisers and events in California, but that it was unlikely that he would make public remarks.

The Families don't want 0bama there!

I'd like to see the crowd, on national TV, do a mass turning their backs on him.

It would be a beautiful sight.

It’s simply not possible for Earnest to speak without lying.

Southern Oregon is not 0bama country.

There will be as many conservative protesters as bused-in 0bambi supporters.

Do you think that will stop him from coming? The leftists in all branches of city, county and state in Oregon government will welcome him with open arms.

I hope they give him hell. Nothing can put a smile on the face like seeing BHO booed in a deep blue state he carried twice.

Open Carry is fairly normal in Southern Oregon.

I recommend everyone show up while exercising that G-d given right.

I would prefer to see 0bama barred from entering the church or the funeral home where the funeral is taking place. Funerals are private affairs. If it were a funeral for my family member and would slam the door shut in 0bama’s face.

Folks in Oregon should start making hundreds of signs, "Stop trying to disarm us".

Or, "How many guns does your Secret Service have?"

That’s a nice day trip.

You can fly fish the Umpqua and mountain lakes while you’re there. Maybe shoot something ... among the game species.

What could possibly be “consoling” about having a lying, arrogant, narcissistic jackass visit?
