White House calls NRA video repugnant, cowardly

WASHINGTON (AP) — The White House says a National Rifle Association video referencing President Barack Obama's daughters is "repugnant and cowardly."

Obama spokesman Jay Carney says most Americans agree that a president's children should not be used as "pawns in a political fight." Carney was referring to an online video from the pro-gun lobby. The video calls Obama an "elitist hypocrite" for having armed Secret Service agents protect his daughters at school while not committing to installing armed guards in all schools.

The NRA released the video ahead of Obama's announcement Wednesday of proposals for curbing the nation's gun violence. The president is calling on Congress to enact universal background checks and ban assault weapons and high-capacity ammunition magazines — all measures the NRA opposes.

The gun lobby has instead called for armed guards in schools.

Obama spokesman Jay Carney says most Americans agree that a president’s children should not be used as “pawns in a political fight.”

Just other people’s but only when its for gun control.

How these lying hypocrits can keep from laughing when the drones in the media totally accept this kind of drivel is beyond me.

Obama’s children deserve to be protected by armed guards , but the Sandy Hook kids do not deserve such protection?

Elitest fascists in the White House? You bet.

I hope the NRA developes a national program for the training and provision of armed gurads for schools across America.

But....but....but didn’t Obama and Biden surround themselves with child pawns before announcing the 23 presidential executive orders on gun control?

Most Americans do not agree with Carney at all. Not in the least.

The White House says a National Rifle Association video referencing President Barack Obama's daughters is "repugnant and cowardly."

But failed to answer why his children can be protected with armed security while ours cannot.

Using human shields to further your racist and bigoted agenda is far, far worse, Obama.

You read those letters and you see that some of them were written by their parents.

“You are cowardly” Barry said bravely as he stood behind a line of gun barrels as thick as spines on a hedgehog.

The only coward here is the Kenyan. He and his children are surrounded by Secret Service - their magazines carry more than 6 rounds I would bet - while the rest of us aren’t worth even protecting ourselves in his ego mind.

Obama and his ilk are the ones who are repugnant and cowardly. He is not only the Hypocrite-in-Chief, he doesn’t have the spine to even try to justify why his kids get taxpayer-funded guards and ours are somehow not worthy.
