By the way Obama released a comment saying he agrees with the courts decision.
Really? That surprises me.
I can’t wait to hear Daley’s reaction in Chicago. I’m sure the words, “deeply disappointed” will be in there are few times. heheheheheee
Amazing didn’t Obama announce yesterday that he disagreed with the courts ruling on the death penalty for child rapist??
Obama just doesn't vote that way.
Sen. Obama, in my neck of the woods that makes you a liar.
Odd. Let’s see if the MSM asks how Obama can agree with a decision that stands in direct opposition to his legislative history and stated positions. A guy who wanted to go so far as to ban plinkers agrees with the SC’s decision? Right....
“By the way Obama released a comment saying he agrees with the courts decision.”
Funny, that doesn’t match his voting record. http://gunowners.org/pres08/obama.htm

“Obama released a comment saying he agrees with the courts decision.”
I call BS. Obama would disarm you in a minute if he thought it was to his political advantage.
That’s interesting. I just caught the end of it, but one of the reporters on Fox News just stated that Obama stated at one of the debates in February (perhaps not IN the debate itself, but to a local reporter attending the event) that he SUPPORTED the DC gun ban.
It’ll be very, VERY interesting to see if that can be proven as fact.
Of course, not only does he say he’ll appoint justices who will interpret the constitution, like those who voted against this decision and in the majority of the death penalty case yesterday that OBama disagreed with,
But Obama also voted AGAINST the judges who he supposedly agrees with on those two cases. So the judges he rejected rule the way they should (even according to Obama), while the judges he admires and would clone on the bench rule the wrong way (even according to Obama).
Pretty bad President, can’t even support judges who he agrees rule correctly.
“Obama agrees with the decision?” -
yet would never nominate a justice who would vote for it.
Obama SIDESTEPPED the question at that creepy presser with the anal-retentively starched flags in the background. I predicted before the ruling that he's support whatever decision was made, then claim it was the same position he's had all along.
