Obama: ‘I’m Not Perfect’; Mocks Clinton Support for Gun Rights
Barack Obama lashed out Sunday at Democratic rival Hillary Clinton, mocking her sudden vocal support for gun rights, and saying he better understands the concerns of working class people.
Gracious sakes! If all else fails, attack? Seems to be the norm, doesn’t it.
The Illinois senator has spent three days on the defensive after comments he made at a San Francisco fundraiser suggesting working class people are bitter about their economic circumstances and “cling to guns and religion” as a result. Clinton has pounded him for the remarks, calling him “elitist and divisive.”
Well? It’s not just the Shrilldebeast who is point it out, a whole lot of us common folk have noticed. Of course, if ya want my opinion, (and even if ya don’t I’m going to give it to you anyway because this is my blog) neither one of them know what the REAL world is all about.
“Now I am the first to admit that some of the words I chose I chose badly, because as my wife reminds me, I’m not perfect. She reminds me of this frequently, and events often remind me as well,” Obama said, reiterating his regret for his choice of words.
Oh trust me B., if she wasn’t, peons like me sure would! 
“So I’m not a perfect man and the words I chose, I chose badly. They were subject to misinterpretation, they were subject to be twisted, and I regret that. I regret that deeply. But. But. But. When people suggest that somehow I was demeaning religion. When I know that I’m a man of deep faith, somebody who in my own life has held on to faith, held onto my confidence in God during times of trial and tribulation, then it sounds like there’s some politics being played.
Demeaning religion? No, just everyone who professes a REAL faith in G-d, not to mention those who believe in the right to protect themselves and their families.
“When people suggest I was somehow being elitist and demeaning hunters when I have repeatedly talked about the tradition that people pass on from generation to generation, hunters and sportsmen, and how I have consistently spoken about my respect for the Second Amendment. When people try to suggest that I was demeaning those traditions, then it sounds like there’s some politics being played. And what really burns me up is when people suggest that me saying that folks are mad, they are angry, they are bitter after 25, 30 years of seeing jobs shipped out, pensions not fulfilled, health care lost. The notion that people are surprised, and are suggesting that I’m out of touch because I spoke honestly about people’s frustrations, that tells me there’s some politics going on,” he said.
Uh….respect for the 2nd Amendment? Wanna rephrase that?
He then turned the tables on Clinton — noting that she accepted campaign contributions from drug and insurance company lobbyists and mocking, among other things, her sudden fealty to the rights of gun owners.
“She is running around talking about how this is an insult to sportsmen, how she values the Second Amendment. She’s talking like she’s Annie Oakley,” Obama told an audience at a union hall here, invoking the famed female sharpshooter immortalized in the musical “Anne Get Your Gun.”
Welp,here’s a real shocker for both of you….not all gun owners are hunters! If either one of those people get into the White House, we’ll be losing a lot more freedoms than the left has blamed on the Bush administration.
Barack Yomama Obamalamadingdong gets in office, we’re going to need all the guns we can get our hands on… And that is not some neo-con bullshit, it’s a hard fact…
We will be forced to defend this nation and our Constitution… Bank on it…
The Second Amendment ‘The one right that protects all the others’ and there is NO doubt in my mind that we WILL be defending it too…
I’m looking at a couple more to add to my small collection.
