President Barack Obama will travel to Newtown, Conn., on Sunday to meet with families of those killed in the shooting rampage at Sandy Hook Elementary School and thank emergency workers who responded to the tragedy, the White House said Saturday.

"The President will also speak at an interfaith vigil for families of the victims as well as families" at 7 p.m., press secretary Jay Carney said in a statement.

On Friday, an emotional Obama vowed to "take meaningful action, regardless of the politics," to prevent future tragedies like the shooting massacre, which killed 26 people at the school, 20 of them children.

Tomorrow, today,(it’s 3am sunday) is going to
be an interesting day.
If he was really caring he would meet the families
in private and not make a photo op out of it.

Obama+funeral Protesters=mess of gigantic proportions.

Time for the Kenyan to do some of his specialty photo op hugs.

I have a technical question. Since this is a funereal occasion (expect some of the funerals will be held Sunday) .... will Barky forgo his frisky-jog down the Air Force One steps and the healthy-canter over to the massed microphones, or will he just do a penseroso half-frisky half-jog down the stairs, followed by a mournfully deliberate stride to the mikes? I assume his marks won't change ....

<aside> The all-time classic was when Rush's associate caught Slick Willie coming away from Ron Brown's funerals in a good mood, when Slick spotted the cameras and did a quick-change, while the unlucky staffer walking with him didn't catch the cue and kept on smiling and joking. Classic, classic political-theater TV. An American document .... </aside>

Just drop a note to Sidebar Moderator and ask to have the redundant posts removed. You really have to watch it and not let your finger dwell on the "post" button, even if -- especially if -- response "seems" to be slow. It bites lots of people.

Whorealdo would dearly love to be Obama’s girlfriend.

Desperate, forlorn hope. Obama is a bottom.

If we found out tomorrow that the dead punk was a left wing liberal who killed his mom because she was a right wing conservative, would this story instantly disappear?

Oooh! Very good question ....

Love to know what the punk thought about Michael Moore and Bill Maher, the intellectual titans of our age.

Our president is GARBAGE. Where was he when Islamic madmen were breaking into our embassy?

He's still trying to use "Fast and Furious" to push his gun control agenda.

He doesn't care about these people - and everyone paying attention knows it. First of all, those kids don't look like him (like Trayvon Martin did).

.... before the big HI vacation

Thought he called that off because of public pressure (with the "fiscal cliff" looming, and all) .... ?

Obama will likely announce a massive buy back and rewards for information of gun hoarders nationwide.

yes he will see this event as the green light to launch his communist crusade upon America.

He will call it the Firearms Freedom and Protection Act, Boner will support it, and the media will hail Obama as a consensus building moderate.

There will be a hot line to anonymously turn in your neighbor, resulting in a flash-bang being thrown through your window and your dog being shot.

He won't be coming to Chicago...probably afraid one of his paid for voters will accidently miss their target and hit him.

Putting his limp-wristed hand up to his forehead, he faints. I would prefer that he farts instead.

He should cancel the Hawaiian vacation to show his solidarity with the CT community.

Faux News says we’re now “UNITED in Grief”, so watch for the “Uniter” meme from Whoraldo and Big Media, too.

Obama has to insert himself in this tragedy. Ofcourse he didn't say jack about the Union violence.

I'll be catching up on my dvr'd shows rather than listen to Obama use this tragedy to grab guns

take meaningful action, regardless of the politics," to prevent future tragedies like the shooting massacre

closing Gitmo,lowering the sea levels,keeping unemployment under 7%,cutting the deficit by half in 4 years,stealing 100 billion on shovel ready jobs that never was, and getting a laugh about it,gun dealing with cartels,killing an Ambassador and three other Americans and lie about it before the world (UN speech),shredding the Constitution, forcing Odungocare on 73% of Americans who oppose it, AND stealing an election....we've seen this clown act before, and today, as he performs his pathetic I really care act, before fleeing the nation on another vacation while making sure no agreement is reached on the economy. Does anyone doubt he'll get political while speaking to a mourning nation today?, will Totus be in attendance?....you betcha. Regardless of politics is code for regardless of the Constitution

I will be proven right, people will simply hide their guns, one way or another. Such suff will never happen.
