Senator Obama recently gave us a disturbing foretaste of the contradictory doublespeak we could expect under an Obama presidency.
Last week, a deeply disturbed young man went on a criminal rampage at Northern Illinois University, murdering several innocent people before taking his own life.
Mr. Obama spoke out last Friday about the tragic event, and exposed the crucial disconnect between his rhetoric and his politics.
Speaking of his determination to do "whatever it takes" to end gun violence, Mr. Obama acknowledged that the Second Amendment secures an citizen's right to keep and bear arms.
Noting that some argue that the Second Amendment only grants state governments the power to arm National Guard units, Mr. Obama said he rejected that view in favor of the widely held belief that the Second Amendment...

A right that the government can completely take away at any time is no right at all.
To say that the Second Amendment means you can own guns, but that the city where you live can ban all gun ownership, means you have no Second Amendment rights at all.
Last week I wrote that I have never in my lifetime seen a major presidential candidate whose rhetoric is so far removed from his policy record. Little did I know that he would give me a perfect illustration of that point the very next day. This is what Americans can expect from a President Obama. He'll wax eloquent about your rights, but then say government can take away whatever part of them — or all of them — that it wants.
It's a disturbing pattern that's starting to emerge in Mr. Obama when he announces a principle or a goal, but then endorses policies that are the exact opposite. It's political doublespeak. It's Orwellian. In fact, it's Clintonian...

They’ll cheer him on in getting guns off the streets. Yours and your friends, FReepers, patriots, and whatever my first and second will be.
This is a politician that is doing very well in hiding his true agenda and direction he wants to take this country. If you want to see his some of real ideas or America and concepts he is suppressing you just have to hear his wife speaking.

That video is VERY DISTURBING. Gave me a sick feeling.
There was substance with Hitler, and he needed no teleprompter. Obama is more Chauncy Gardner than Hitler.
“Alles muss anders sein”
Amen to that!
Me too...it’s like a “great disturbance” ... but in the pit of my stomach. It just goes to show that the dumbing down of America, primarily through the public education system, is has had a profound effect—and now is so clearly obvious. It’s like a dark, very dark supernatural hold is on this country. How else to explain what is happening before our very eyes. God help us...and the future of this country.

Someone should ask BO about the NIU killer’s ties to Islamofascism. He evidently is a big fan of HAMAS having done research and studied them. NIU has conveniently removed all referecne to this killer on their website!
You go to be kidding, did you forget the sarc?
Obama is not more honest he just less revealing than Billory.

But, wait a minute. May he was implying that if others had carried their guns to class, no one, except the perp, may have been killed. Can you validate that? Do you have his full speech on that subject?
