bama, wiping tears, makes new push to tighten gun rules (What a rotten phony!)
MSN/Reuters ^ | 1/5/2016 | Roberta Rampton and Ayesha Rascoe

WASHINGTON, Jan 5 (Reuters) - Wiping back tears as he remembered children killed in a mass shooting, President Barack Obama on Tuesday ordered stricter gun rules that he can impose without Congress and urged American voters to reject pro-gun candidates.

Obama made it clear he does not expect gun laws to change during his remaining year in office, but pledged to do what he can to make gun control a theme in the months leading up to the November election to replace him.

In a powerful address in the White House, surrounded by family members of people killed in shootings, Obama's voice rose to a yell as he said the constitutional rights of Americans to bear arms needed to be balanced by the right to worship, gather peacefully and live their lives.

Obama has often said his toughest time in office was grappling with the December 2012 massacre of 20 children and six adults at an elementary school in Newtown, Connecticut.

"Every time I think about those kids, it gets me mad," Obama said, tears rolling down his cheek.

"That changed me, that day," he said, after being introduced by Mark Barden, whose 7-year-old son was killed in the shooting. "My hope earnestly has been that it would change the country."

REPUBLICANS VOW TO FIGHT

Republican leaders were quick to denounce Obama's gun changes, with most Republican candidates for the 2016 presidential race promising to reverse his actions if they win the White House.

Democratic candidates praised the moves.

Please do. Let America know which party doesn't respect the Second Amendment. As well as the entire Constitution.

I’m wondering if His Arrogance’s new executive orders will require the Dept. of Just US and State to obtain firearm dealers licenses to run guns to Meh-e-coh and ISIS?

Isn’t this Mark Barden character the one that had the phony weeping event in Sandy Hook....and linked to a photoshop scandal with his son’s image? Also one of the parents suing Newtown claiming the town was negligent on day of shooting?

‘And I can’t remember a single time be shed a public tear when speaking of victims of Islamic terrorists or when talking in public about our military members who were wounded or killed since be has been Commander in Chief.
Liberal tears are very selective.” Yes! I wish that free republic had the ‘like’ button also. I like what you said.

Tears? Where were the tears after Ft. Hood, Chattanooga, Benghazi, San Bernadino?

I would call him a pathetic POS but that would slander turds.

Where were his tears over Fast and Furious? Where were his tears over the sale and brutal harvesting of infant body parts? Where were his tears over all the US citizens killed by catch-and-release border crossers? Where were his tears over Benghazi?

Obama leaves his brother to live in a hut and in squalor out of vindictiveness — his brother doesn’t agree with his politics, that is the reason why.

Where were his tears over San Bernadino? Did he cry when the Twin Towers fell? Or did he gloat along with his Reverend Wright? Where were his tears over the Paris killings? Where were his tears over Fast and Furious? I thought he ‘cares’ about Mexicans, but not one public tear shed over Fast and Furious. Where were his tears over the sale and brutal harvesting of infant body parts? Where were his tears over all the US citizens killed by catch-and-release border crossers? Where were his tears over Benghazi? — His watch.

I would cry if I screwed up that badly. This man cares about us?

Hopefully he’ll end up in a strait jacket receiving absolutely NO compensation for anything after his wild ride as president of a nation now reduced to pitiful status.

They weren’t tears of sadness, they were tears of joy. He just ran the Constitution through the shredder again and he knows that nobody in congress will lift a finger to stop him. They will fund this crap for him and then in a month they will pass a bill to stop it knowing damned go and well that he will veto it. Then come election time the rinos will come to the voters and say “we tried to stop him”!
