It was just him scoring political points by using the children to get an emotional response from the public.
Called politics.
I do not see it as inappropriate. No one is harmed.
If you think that then the harm to the dignity of the presidency must be meaningless to you.
If you think that you must be ignorant of history.
no it was nothing like that
That dignity evaporated the day John Adams was sworn in.Ah yes, I guess I'm forgetting about all those photo-ops with kids staged by George Washington to gin up sentimentalist support for his gun ban. :roll:
Clearly you are the ignorant one, ignorant of the fact that the office of US president once had dignity.
Having kids at a press conference, or using them as political props, is done by every politician. Trying to make them evil fascists for doing so is plum stupid.
All sides do it, radcons, libs, socialists, blah, blah, blah.Where were the kids when signing the Patriot Act. Sure there are times kids are used as props... but it is socialists who use kids when working to strip our rights.
Big difference.
All sides do it, radcons, libs, socialists, blah, blah, blah.
Free speech.
Free speech?
Socialists use children like... Socialists when trying to erase our rights.
Obama has been quite the dick about using his children in political discussion, and frankly, if I were in the press I would have pressed/hounded his kids for answers... if he wants to bring them into the political debate, then they are fair game.
It was his choice to do it... and only by going to the source may this Socialist learn.
I think those four kids need be asked a few questions too. Let's hear what these props have to say about the assault on our rights. At a bare minimum their parents should be sought out for some Q&A's. First question: Why did you let your son/daughter be used as a prop? Do they have any idea what this is about? Oh, they do... then you wouldn't mind if we ask a few questions of your son/daughter would you?
