The NAACPs’ and race baiters’ favourite word is repugnant. Obama is taking a page out of his NAACP lessons. Like racist, repugnant is one of the key vocabulary words used by the rhetoric spinners.

“You are cowardly” he said bravely standing behind a line of gun barrels as thick as spines on a hedgehog.

But it’s okay for Dear Leader to hide behind children.

A person surrounded by armed guards 24/7 is in no position to call anyone “cowardly”.

FoxNews Bret Baier’s All Star panel, Charles Krauthammer, Juan Williams, and Steve Hayes, all called the NRA ad a mistake, vile and repugnant.

I guess they all believe that the elite should have armed protection for their children, but not for ours.

Krauthammer even went so far as to say, of course the President's children should be protected because of who the President is and out kids don't need that type of protection.

What about kids of policemen, judges, FBI, ATF, correctional officers, etc? Their children may be targets because of who their parents are. Don't they deserve armed protection too?

The NRA did not call for taking away the right of the President to protect his children, but to give our kids the same right and not to make them sitting ducks in a gun free zone.

According to Krauthammer then, I guess the kids at Sandy Hook didn’t count. It’s okay for these kids to be sitting ducks as long as they weren’t kids of the elite.
