AURORA, Colo. – President Barack Obama dashed to Colorado on Sunday to meet with families of those gunned down in a movie theater and to hear from state and local officials about the shooting that left 12 people dead and dozens more injured.

Air Force One touched down at Buckley Air Force Base in Aurora late Sunday afternoon for the president's hastily arranged 2 1/2-hour visit, which includes a private meeting with the victims' loved ones and perhaps a public comment about the shooting early Friday morning at a busy multiplex.

He never met with the families of the Ft Hood victims..or how about the massacre that happened here in LA(Seal Beach) at the hair salon..6 people were massacred, Obama never showed up..Obama also never showed up in Chicago where every week 13+ people are murdered. I dont mind Obama meeting with the families of victims but I find it very interesting that he is very selective about where he goes

President Barack Obama dashed to Colorado...

When your poll numbers are in toilet, what can it hurt?

Are they giving out T-shirts again this time?

The Ft. Hood families had to wait while 0bama was busy deciding the incident was ‘work place violence’. Anyway, no stadium speech turned campaign event in Colorado? Shocking!

Probably there to say: “You know, in lieu of flowers for the upcoming services, how about donating to my campaign? I will see that guns will only be in the hands of .......”

I know it sounds sick, but I would not put it past them.

Nothing like applying for votes over the bodies of the dead.

There were about a dozen people murdered in Chicago a few weekends ago but no Osama Obama visit.But then Illinois isn't a tossup state.

It’s The President’s JOB to do things like this.
I don’t like the guy, either, but I don’t think he’s gonna grandstand or make a political stance. I think he’s learned from the Giffords shooting and maybe his advisors have shown him Reagan’s Challenger speech.

Nope,can't agree with that in a million years.Hurricanes...yes.Earthquakes,yes.But not this.If he was in his second term right now he'd be on the golf course instead of in Colorado.And we all know it.
