Obama To Deliver Statement At 3:15 PM - Webcast
The Newtown, CT elementary school killing has already eclipsed Columbine in terms of sheer tragedy and loss of life, and may end up being of the most brutal slayings of innocent life, in US history. As expected, Obama is about to make a statement, most likely on today's tragic events.

oh boy I can hardly wait.
looks like the markets aren't though.
..oh boy, not even starting the first sentence and I can feel it coming: "we need better gun control". Egads.
He is pretending to wipe away tears.
I wonder if he cries after his drones bomb children and women in Pakistan.
If so he must never stop crying.
He's generally a good actor, but this was an epic fail. The guy shamelessly pretended to have tears; a big fucking cocktail of LOLOL/WTF/OMG. What a douche.
he should know when to just STFU
If only you would take your own advice.
It might soothe people more if he just tendered his resignation...
~~~
Oh wait... Next in line would be Biden & after that would be an Oompa Loompa... Face it folks ~ We're fucked...
Behold what is to follow, legislatively, as totally predictable (even though the shooter was, based on the latest reports, using firearms that weren't lawfully his & was "developmentally disabled"):
--Rahm Emanuel, "Chicago Guy"
"and may end up being of the most brutal slayings of innocent life, in US history."
Sorry Tyler, fail. Did you happen to get a 9/11 body count?
The adjective most was modifying the adjective brutal, which is a qualitative, not quantitative, assessment.
Interesting why they haven't banned air planes.
Interesting why we haven't banned government. Goverments have killed, by most estimates, somewhere north of 150 million people under their jurisdiction. Not counting war.
Nope. Those are brown people.
Don't forget "Fast and Furious". How many Mexicans died again???
@ Mr. Lennon Hendrix,
Absolutely!!!
Children are slaughtered everyday in Syria, Iraq, Afghanistan, Pakistan, etc. by our beloving Nobel Peace Prize Lead Government and not one of the socalled bleeding heart "liberal or conservative" MSM sheds a tear.
The MSM phony act as well as this Certified War CRIMINAL fools no one.
Didn't [yet] capitalize on the tragedy by calling for stricter gun laws. My guess is that he won't wait long though. He is, after all, crafting legislation "under the radar."
This week I'm ordering half a dozen pmags and half a dozen cirle 10 mags....
just put in an ammo/high cap mag order a few minutes ago
Same here. Normally I don't give in to the panic buy urges, but this time it IS different. Putting these poor kids in the debate means emotion will rule. Combine that with the "mandate" meme, and this guy has a green light to crush liberty as he pleases.
@ SeverinSlade,
Spot on my brother!!!
A sad day in Connecticut indeed..No matter how you look at it, the world is getting worse anyways with violence. Remember guns don’t kill people, people kill people. Although this sadness has occurred and people died, if we outlaw guns, the only ones with guns are going to be the outlaws and, The Criminal Federal Goverment Globalist NWO Minions. Today the shooters were the outlaws.
Yes....keep repeating it over and over sheeple. It will keep you soothed as we implement the next stage of your "protection".....
@ kliguy38,
The PsyOp runs deep. Remember this:
"What we need to do is change the way in which people think about guns, especially young people, and make it something that’s not cool, that it’s not acceptable, it’s not hip to carry a gun anymore, in the way in which we changed our attitudes about cigarettes.”
“We have to be repetitive about this,” he said. “We need to do this every day of the week, and just really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way.”
-Criminal Eric Holder.
Eric Holder: "We need to brainwash people" https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Sa49iocFTSEDespite what you guys think he's not going to take your guns away. He's too centrist and quite frankly too cowardly to even attempt it.
But mark my words, greater controls are coming. Get your guns and ammo, and protect them.
Please remember where he got his beginnings.....Chicago...where only the police and criminals are allowed guns.
Oh, that statement was redundant, wasn't it?
40 shot would be a good weekend for Chicago these days....
normal weekend
cause for holiday, antional celebrations (say, New Years, etc.) double it here on out....
BULLSHIT. Everything that Obama said about guns before he was elected President had a single, unifying theme: guns should not be in the hands of regular citizens.
So now that he's POTUS, he's changed his mind? No, up until a few weeks ago, Obama avoided addressing guns because he knew that it was political suicide. Now that he's untouchable, you can bet your last dollar that he is going to "dance in the blood of the victims" (as Mike Vanderboegh so eloquently puts it) and use this incident to advance one of his most cherished political goals: disarming americans.
AFter all, this is the sick, twisted fuck who brought you Fast and Furious, and used Executive Privilege to dead-end the investigation into that despicable operation.
approved the creation of, maintains and orders extra judicial killings of American citizens (but wants muzzie terrs to get trials...)
orders constant drone killings of innocents aka too fucking bad, dude
expanding special ops aggressively
Instead of connecting the dots to the point of insanity, maybe your disgusting, inhuman ass should present some evidence before he runs his mouth. He makes 4 assertions about this speech with little/no evidence: 1. They're coming for your guns 2. Tears are fake (when in general he may just be wiping his eyes to prevent tears) 3. Entire thing is a mind control experiment (come on man we're talking about 5-10 year? old kids) 4. They are using it for political purposes. No evidence. Of course RFK assassin mentioned.
YOU ARE? MENTALLY INSANE. You are making everything out to seem like some conspiracy when it's not. Please shut the fuck up.
Questionman,
I would normally think someone obtuse who failed to see a level of hypocrisy, given that Obama's drone attacks have killed 10 times as many Pakistani children as died in Connecticut.
But, judging by your ad hominem rant, there may, in your case, be another explanation.
Seems to me that the comment was bat shit crazy. Where is your evidence Obama plans to take your guns away? On a side note, I will point out that even if that teacher was packing, the killers body armor would have made concealed carry moot. On the otherhand, if you would have taken his gun away, he may have just turned himself into a human bomb. These things are like forces of nature, like earthquakes.
All your guns are belong to us!
.........From my cold, dead, fat, french fry greased fingers......
Some of the script for this announcement was taken from old Bush announcements. The only thing new is the tears.
Mr. 666's
"tears" (odummer's "tears") are as fake as those he "shed" in front of his unions buddies right after the election...
ryan lanza
= is an odummer-voting looking weed smoking LIE-beral....i'm 100% sure of it
There is a big world out there if you just took off your blinders and looked for it.

Worst School attack in US happened in 1927.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bath_School_disaster
...and nobody there was killed with a firearm.
Wow! (44 of which 38 were students)
And I thought the worst massacre back then was this...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Saint_Valentine%27s_Day_Massacre
Maybe the Waco Branch Davidian police assault deserves mention,
as well as Sand Creek.

The worlds greatest actor.
Hell I almost believed the palpatine drone master was sincere for a moment, almost for a moment..
not going to be long now, ban on all guns in amerika
with exceptions of union members, large donors and bundlers, etc., etc., etc
Maybe he will come out and say that because we have lied to everyone about the current depression we are in, that maybe people don't know how to handle their lives going to shit all the while hearing how good things are, and that he is sorry?
Politicians tossing in their "I feel your pain" BS is too much.
Just shut the hell up already.

I see trees of green, red roses too
I see them bloom for me and you
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
I see skies of blue and clouds of white
The bright blessed day, the dark sacred night
And I think to myself what a wonderful world.
The colors of the rainbow so pretty in the sky
Are also on the faces of people going by
I see friends shaking hands saying how do you do
They're really saying I love you.
I hear babies cry, I watch them grow
They'll learn much more than I'll never know
And I think to myself what a wonderful world
Yes I think to myself what a wonderful world.
Excellent and powerful.
As the country declines with financial, moral and social decay we can expect to see a great deal of violence, this shooting shouldn't surprise anyone that has been paying attention.
That was my though exactly. As society falls, you will see more of this.
This is not surprising in the least bit.
People tend to get angry when they are lied to over and over again on a daily basis.
pods
What is surprising is that this type of shit doesn't happen every day...........
It will though. Give it another couple years.
About the time that schools start to allow parents to stand in the parking lot with automatic rifles, like they do in Israel.
Unfortunately.
May God help us all, for we are incapable by ourselves.
To be perfectly honest, I wasn't in the least bit surprised to hear about this shooting.
Heck, I was more surprised with myself for not being surprised!
Not to mention the shooter was in his 20s, thus probably been taking lithium for about 10 years. Gotta love them psychtropics.
Maybe this is the speech where he admitts that his constant lies and immorality, televised 24x7, are a major contributor of society's decay. I can dream, can't I?
Yes you can Dream.
I swear on my Nobel prize that all the children we kill in drone strikes are terrorists. Besides, we have only killed 200 of them.
Praise the lord and summon the drones.
This is a communty's terrible tragedy without a doubt but why does the President have to make statements in the immediate emotionally charged aftermath?
Because Obama is a ratfuck, scumbag, cum-guzzling, dick catching, malicious narcissist camera whore who will use other peoples' tragedy for his personal gains?
Edit: Dear deluded Democrat doing the downcheck to me ... FUCK YOU.
No. You are a hateful racist piece of shit. a racist, bigoted, homopobic, extremist asshole!
But claiming that President Obama was " faking crying" is reprehensible and false. You disagree with his policies with lies But to say and believe that Obama shed a "fake tear" for some type of political agenda when 20 toddlers were murdered a few hours earlier makes me right. Shameful
Fuck you and the horse you rode in under you sack of shit. Racist? LOL. Is that the best you got?
Being called a racist these days means shit. But since u think u know me amd my racism.....
Bu cac dao va chau de
Yub tvaya mat zhopa.
Pok gai .. le hi mi mi ... ju hai.
Chinga le madre pendejo.
Those are the languages my friends speak with me. So fuck you amd your pathetic insults you miserable ideological fucktard.
I do not care what an indoneasian third world butt boy has to say, waste of time..as honest as his school records oh wait.
No. You are a hateful racist piece of shit. a racist, bigoted, homopobic, extremist asshole!
But claiming that President Obama was " faking crying" is reprehensible and false. You disagree with his policies with lies But to say and believe that Obama shed a "fake tear" for some type of political agenda when 20 toddlers were murdered a few hours earlier makes me right. Shameful
thats his objective, throw another spark on the rage of the people to support his agenda.
Wonder if Odumbo sheds tears for all the people Hilary and him have killed in foreign lands
and how about the Americans who he let die in Benghazi ? We haven't forgotten about Benghazi , right ?
the most brutal slayings of innocent life in US history?
Oh please .... how about Hiroshima, just for openers ....
BO will use this as "ammo" to keep spending!
odummer SHEDS "TEARS"
the SAME tears he shed for Sandy's victims (staten island)
one staten island guy was saying that fema told him and others MULTIPLE TIMES: DENIED !!!!!
on the other hand...what happened today is no joke...specially if you are a parent of a toddler (me)
QEorganizer ganga-rapist-style DENIED staten island bc NO MONEY...all was spent on QEs for the 1%...he also doesn't want to bring out trailers for them...bc it will look too much like katrina...so staten SUFFERS !!
odummer = freaking idiot !!
he's stupid and can't act...if he knew, he would be wiping away the medial aspect of his eye (towards the nose), not the lateral side...soooo STUPID...specially when looking down, gravity pulls down!!! NOT UP...you freaking CON artist idiot !!
i know, i know they don't teach Physics to LIE-berals....bunch of physics envious idiots !! maybe he will get it right next time...his croonies read ZH and maybe he will get the memo...= i still won't buy jack, won't buy any of his marketing bs
I noticed that immediately. How them tears gonna go up your face fuckstick?
You really ARE an uncaring racist piece of shit!
OH please John-you don't think a Republican would have reacted the same. ANY FATHER WOULD HAVE. I take what Obama says to heart about those kids because that's at least one thing we know he is speaking true about. How could you not? Especially being a parent. But I'm not really surprised by the garbage mocking Obama! Your inconsiderate if you feel the need to bash the president during this time. Why don't you just feel sorry and keep your other stupid thoughts to yourself...C'mon , get your head out of your ass man. Barry wouldn't know the truth if it came up and smacked him in the head .
The last person we need to hear from is Obama on this. Newtown had a sort of Norman Rockwell feel to it with the flagpole downtown. Not anymore.
violence begets violence- we will reap what we have sown worldwide just as the sins of the father are revisited upon the son. that fucking hypocrite Obama makes me want to puke.
To commentators with ugly, angry, slur comments about Obama... Thank you!
You are among the reasons normal people stay away from GOP and Tea Party...You racists truly ARE hateful people!
I mean really 20 kids under 9 years old? get slaughtered and if anyone do not get emotional about it is well to me as sick as the ass-hole who shot them. that makes Obama a narcisisst that you black-hating racist falsely call him?
The comments on here about this are almost as sick as what this lunatic did. From these comments it's easy to see where he came from.
President Obama cares about people. You may disagree with him on certain issues, but he's not a bad person.
"Questionman"
"President Obama cares about people. You may disagree with him on certain issues, but he's not a bad person."
You are a fucking retard, plain and simple. I cannot even imagine why you are on this site.... did someone on facebook tell you? If you could read it would be rather simple to come to the conclusion that on this site we DO NOT believe in the statist bullshit from either the Red or Blue Teams.
Got it? Now fuck off.
Go fuck yourself, you ignorant asshole!
You piece of shit. You can not wait to politicize this tragedy for your own use. You should be ashamed. I don't care what you think about the president. This is not what about what? you think. This is not a platform for you to advance your agenda. This is about the senseless death of 18 innocent children. Where is your soul? Your handguns will not protect you from drones.
GO FUCK YOURSELF!
let's see... in November, 93% of black voters voted for the black man. And only around 70% of white voters voted for the white man. So.... who is racist ? ?
Send MONEY, GUNS AND LAWYERS!
The President doesn't get to make decisions about our rights...
not YET .....
"We are going to have to come together and take more action prevent more tragedies this, regardless of the politics" .............And there you have it.,you know where this shameless scum is headed with this. He could have at least waited until after the funerals before politicizing it.
You really ARE a ignorant racist piece of shit!
Where the hell do you get off using what happened today to try and push your beliefs on others. You complain and say that Obama is fake crying. I am sure he is not standing there thinking that what happened today was a great thing. You stupid hypocrite are you crying? no all you can think about is pushing your agenda. Stop using such a horrible tragedy to your advantage. This is? NOT about gun laws this is about 20 little children being killed.
ya know, you just might come across as a LITTLE bit credible if you first learned to spell and construct a complete sentence. A lesson or two in 3rd-grade grammar would also help !
Sociopaths looking for a way to hide their sociopathy: wipe fake tears in front of cameras, quick!
911 first responders still have not received any payments for their health. the government told them they, did not need respirators the air was a-ok.They tried to save lives.Our government takes lives with joy everyday.Drones,military,police state,spy,overthrow other governments,assasination of whistleblowers or anyone that does not lick their boots on and on.
11 years on many are dying and many more will.
Yes Obama cares about these kids ,teachers and the people of the once great nation of the United states of America.
Right.........(rolling eyes that are not wide shut)
My condolences to the victims in this tragedy.
I have never seen a gun pull the trigger by itself. I have seen politicians spewing lies on their own, day after day year after year.
It would be interesting to find out how many of these 20 somethings involved in these shootings were put on ritalin or an antidepressant as a kid.
I contacted Big Pharma with your concerns...they said there was nothing to worry about...they said correlation is not causation...they said there is no empirical evidence to support such a claim...they said they'd sue if you brought it up again...
SOP, after every tragedy the dick-sucking major media all run to el Presidente - what the fuck do I care what he says or thinks - I will not be watching CNN as those anchors are so excited over this that they're probably wacking off or fingering themselves behind the podium...
I was at work. Did he mention "balanced" or "folks like me can afford to pay more" or "it's the right thing"?
Horrible tragedy.
Whatbig pharmaceutical chicken feed was this guy on? What idiot policies set the stage for this tragedy? What dumbfuck wasn't supervising this guy?
