The mass shooting that took place in Charleston, South Carolina Wednesday night is tragic beyond belief and the nation mourns for the victims and their families. While President Obama shared his grief in a press conference this afternoon, he also couldn’t resist turning the statement into a call for gun control.
And then, quite predictably, he was off to fundraise and play golf.

If this sounds familiar it’s because it is. The president also went to fundraise the day after the Benghazi attack that left four Americans dead, including a sitting ambassador; he hit the links minutes after a somber address about American journalist James Foley’s beheading by ISIS; and went fundraising after giving a brief statement about the Fort Hood mass shooting. We could go on and on and on.
Optics matter, and Obama still hasn’t learned that, or just doesn’t care.
It’s like the Marx Brothers, Keystone Kops and Abbott&Costello are running things.. All at the same time.
Ghoul.
He got tired of people bitching about his going to play golf after massacres.
Ya can’t blame him for gettin’ back a da white folk and rakin in as much money as he can while pres’dent since he lived in da hood and his amcestors were slaves...oh wait....
He is contemptible.
He looks like he’s got AIDS.
He's just a very, uh, "slim" fellow...
A tear dripping from one eye for poor black people, and a twinkle and a wink from the other eye to the rich white folks he’s hanging around with tonight.
I’m surprised he didn’t give his statement from a golf cart.

Frankly Scarlett, I have a lot more respect for the aforementioned comics than I ever did for the first jackass.
...and I would dang sure trust my money and my country to the Three Stooges, the Marx Brothers, the Keystone Cops, and Abbot and Costello long before the first jackass.
I think apologies are due the long passed comedy teams.
Well he got over it real quick..just stand in front of the TV, say a few words about his hatred of guns and off to fund raise. Didn’t he supposedly know the pastor that was murdered? Gee shows much he cares about his “Friends” he cares about no one but himself and making more money for the Commie party
Don’t be no dissin on b’rack. He be down for da money and sh1t.
Maybe dis is where da stash com from?
Obama is so fake.
He couldn’t even squeeze out a tear for the nine victims.
He’s already here in LA, causing traffic delays, what else is knew..gee you would think he would at least pretend to care about these people..imagine for a second if a Republican had done this. Even Jeb Bush had enough common sense to cancel his scheduled trip to SC
