Obama blasts 'imaginary fiction' of taking away guns
CNN ^ | 1/7/2016

Posted on 01/07/2016 7:02:41 PM PST by Lazamataz

President Barack Obama rejected the "imaginary fiction" that he wanted to take away the guns of law-abiding Americans during a town hall meeting on his gun policies aired on CNN Thursday night. "The way it is described, is that we are trying to take away everybody's guns," Obama said, charging that his opponents had twisted his plans on gun safety measures.

"Our position is consistently mischaracterized," Obama said. "If you listen to the rhetoric, it is so over-the-top, it is so overheated."

"I have no intention of taking away everyone's guns.

Translation: The military and the police can still have guns.

Any time he mocks something like this, it’s because it’s really true.

You just have to play the “George Costanza opposite game” with Obama (or any other government official, for that matter).

Denial = Affirmation

He didn’t say he won’t take your (or my) guns.

“The way it is described, is that we are trying to take away everybody’s guns,” Obama said...

He just won’t take everybody’s.

Right. And you were never going to take away our doctors. Or flood the streets with criminal aliens. All those crazy nutjobs out there with their wacky conspiracies.

For the sake of argument, lets take him at his word. That would mean he true opponents in convincing us of his truthfullness is not the NRA, but his fellow Democrat politicos who sit in governors mansions in Blue States, can you say Andrew Cuomo, who do try to take away our guns. For me, I see what they have done from DC to Boston, thus I cannot take him at his word. When I see “shall issue” in NJ, and can bring my AR 15 back to the range in NY I cannot go to anymore, then maybe we can talk.

“Imaginary Fiction” is a double negative. I’m guessing he knew exactly that and that is why the moron said it.

Check out the well known 'Conspiracy' website 'whitehouse.gov' and the fevered words of one Barack Hussein praising Gun Confiscation in Australia:

Remarks by the President in Q&A with David Karp, CEO of Tumblr
June 10, 2014
State Dining Room
[..]
MR. KARP: Brilliant. This one was sent in a few days ago: "Mr. President, my name is Nick Dineen, and I attend school at the University of California-Santa Barbara.

..Today, another man has shot and killed at least one person and injured three others at a private Christian school in Seattle. What are you going to do? What can we all do?"

THE PRESIDENT:
"A couple of decades ago, Australia had a mass shooting similar to Columbine or Newtown. And Australia just said, well, that's it - we're not seeing that again. And basically imposed very severe, tough gun laws. And they haven't had a mass shooting since."
https://www.whitehouse.gov/the-press-office/2014/06/10/remarks-president-qa-david-karp-ceo-tumbl

Statement by the President on the Shootings at Umpqua Community College, Roseburg, Oregon.
October 01, 2015
6:22 P.M. EDT
THE PRESIDENT: There's been another mass shooting in America - this time, in a community college in Oregon.
[...]
We know that other countries, in response to one mass shooting, have been able to craft laws that almost eliminate mass shootings. Friends of ours, allies of ours - Great Britain, Australia, countries like ours. So we know there are ways to prevent it.

Well, he didn’t lie on this one.
“The way it is described, is that we are trying to take away everybody’s guns,” Obama said, charging that his opponents had twisted his plans on gun safety measures.

He will let two people keep their guns, therefore he did not lie. He didn’t take away everybody’s guns!

Oh, so, if I like my guns, I can keep my guns!

Wait, didn't I hear something like this before?

Well, I do sort of wish he'd go to Syria or Iraq and tell the folks there to stop cling to their guns and religion....

Every time his lips move, we figure lies are coming out. This has proven correct at least 99.44% of the time.

“The government that jails ranchers as terrorists for burning some grassland would not hesitate to fabricate reasons to take your guns”

Post of the day!

That should be a bumper sticker.
