FoxNews Bret Baiers 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.

I am very shocked that you fell for this. It’s not just about the President’s kids - there are millions of liberals who have kids in protected schools...and thousands of liberals who have private armed guards - and all of them are in support of this...and just the HELL with anyone who thinks all of their kids are more important than any other citizens. You really fell off the wagon on this one pal....
The NRA ad was not comparing risks but comparing value. Obama sends his kids to a school that would have armed guards even if his kids didn’t go there. The armed guards are there to protect the kids of regular rich people along with the children of Obama and all the other super elites.
If you think Obama’s kids deserve better protection from terrorists or crazy people than your own kids, then you shouldn’t be a parent.
We have armed guards protecting banks and jewelry stores, but Obama and the libs want OUR kids to be unprotected in so called gun free zones while they send their children to armed fortresses.
Their kids are not more valuable than mine. If gund are protecting their children, then guns should be there to protect mine.
Except that the school where Obama's kids go had armed resource officers before the O'Kids enrolled at the school and it will have armed security at the school long after they leave. The point of the ad is to remind the public that when the NRA suggested a few weeks ago that our schools should employ armed personnel -- just like they do at the rich, private schools where the limousine liberals send their kids -- Obama and his peeps attacked the NRA and its members as dangerous and stupid.
“They might as well have gotten their marching orders from the White House tonight.”
Rupert Murdoch is pleased I am sure (considering his gun grabbing ideology).
I am thinking they will be purging Hannity soon because of his adamant support of the Second Amendment. His show is the only one I watch on Fox now (unless Beckel or Williams is on it and then I turn off Fox). Hannity’s radio show today was excellent.
this is why the elitist on our side have to go ocne and for all, they fought Newt, they fought Sarah and they fight anyone who fights the left because they think we should act civil, be nice, try and get along.
Well north east , DC elitists, that time has gone to hell with you and the socialists.
Every frigging time our side starts to take the left on these idiots and the likes of Peggy Noonan come on and put our side down whilst the socialists laugh their little pee wees off
So true Bulba-
Obama chose to be President which comes with inherent risks and yes-his kids need protection-and they will NOT be targeted because everyone knows they are protected...
But these children just went to school with homework and lunches-expecting to yawn thru math and play with their friends at recess-just simply, it doesn’t matter who their parents are or what they do, they ALL have targets on their backs because they are not protected- by anyone with a weapon who can return fire...
A teacher shielded 6 children using her body to protect them; she was killed as were the 6 she was trying to save-but if she could have protected them with a gun, things may have been different....
it is so stunningly simple that the elitists cannot fathom it.
Amen!
Welcome to FR. Thanks for your contributions.
Someone needs to point out to these knuckleheads that one of the key ideas of Americanism was that we did not bow to kings, that the citizen was the equal of his representatives all the way up to and including the President.
Having special laws for the governmental elite is a dangerous precedent and a vast step backwards for the idea of America.

The Obamamites love trotting out the kids when they think it will score points. Then when someone calls them on it, they act appalled, outraged, high dudgeon, et cetera and so forth and so on.
The MSM then carries their water, the GOP-e’rs recant, confess, `mea culpa!’ (sob), profound apologies, Boner has a good cry—rinse, repeat.
The GOP-e is the left’s straightman, the Generals to their Globetrotters vaudeville act. Next time they need help, I’ll gladly hit them with a stream from a seltzer bottle.
my kids are just as important as his and deserve to have the same rights.
He;s not king, his fmaily are not and a childs life is equal, after all that is what the elft likes, we’re all equal.
My kids deserve the same protection as anyone elses, they are not better than my kids, and just because daddy never has done a proper job, and used fraud and a corrupt Chicago machine to help him get where he is now does not mean my kids are any less.
Obama and his elitist pals are hypocrites , plain and sime and the drones which follow him are the dumbest idiots this country has seen.
Fed up of the turds on our side putting our side down when they go on the attack and take the left on, those turds need to shut the hell up and let us take obama on for once not come to the help of the left unless they have an agenda
The elite are fairly consistent. I remember Juan a couple of weeks ago talking to Sean Hannity. When Sean mentioned he had a CCP, Juan immediately stated that he understood why a man with Sean’s public persona would need to have arms.
Kinda like in the 90’s when one of Ted Kennedy’s body guards was thrown off a plane for carrying a weapon, the libs all chimed in that any one of Teddy’s persona should have armed body guards but no one else should have.
IOW, If you’re an elite, then you can be protected but if you’re just a commoner, then you don’t count
exactly
our kids are no less than his kids and they deserve the same rights as his
these turds like to think of themselves as our leaders for some reason, well here is news for them.
THEY ARE NOT, they;re the useless elitist fools which has been stopping conservatives for over a decade going after the left.
why anyone listens to these elitist croaks is beyond me
The ad was brilliant. The elitists on the panel saw their own hypocrisy pointed out, and they squealed like pigs. Baier, Krauthammer and the rest are NOT your friends. They believe they are better than you, and they believe their children are more important than yours.
Someone should tell Hannity that a clip is not the same as a magazine.
damn right and same here, my kids are just as imporant as his.
Hannity criticized the ad on the radio today...said he wouldn’t have done the ad...the mask slips a bit again...
So Obama's kids are more at risk, so he has a right to defend his kids but we don't?
Look genius.
Obama can defend his kids with guns and so should we.
Your response is "stupid".
