rolls back a mid-1990s law that imposed a 10-year limit on Secret Service protection for former presidents.

Do you blame him?

I mean if you were in his shoes, and you could, wouldn't you?

Correct.
The irony of Obama seeking to surround himself with armed men for the rest of his life while simultaneously working to disarm the American people via a gun control agenda that is likely to be enforced via executive decree represents the height of hypocrisy.

But it’s not the first time that Obama has lauded the notion of responsible Americans using firearms to protect himself and his family while concurrently eviscerating that very same right for the American people.

During an ABC Nightline interview broadcast on December 26 yet recorded before the Sandy Hook shooting, Obama said one of the benefits of his re-election was the ability “to have men with guns around at all times,” in order to protect his daughters.

In addition, the school attended by Obama’s daughters in Washington D.C. has no less than 11 armed security guards on duty at all times, yet the idea of arming teachers and school officials to prevent school massacres has been dismissed by gun control advocates who want school campuses to remain “gun free zones” where victims are disarmed and shooters are free to carry out their rampage unimpeded.

He needs to ask himself why he feels the need for such protection.

Well, surely he'll still respect the gun free zone known as Chicago. Or risk facing the ire of Rahm!

This was a good move by Obama. Also covers George Bush. Due to the fact that they were commander in chief during two wars, they will need this protection for life.

Sorry guys, I got to call um as I see um.

It shows by his actions he believes
more guns = more safety

no matter what his lips say; he obviously agrees with the NRA :biggrinjester: "rlol"

Facts is Facts; truth is truth and Stats show more guns in good peoples' hands = more safety

I agree that it is two things:

Ironic and elitist.

Obama signed the measure yesterday, and I'm sure he tried to do it with as little fanfare as possible. And, frankly, I'm somewhat amazed the MSM even published the story.

:iagree:

I agree with the decision. We do not need former presidents assassinated. Now the irony of it is very very sweet.

If gun free zones are good enough for us, they are good enough for Obama and George W Bush.
