And I know that's going to happen.

Yup, just checked. 'Enemies of Second Amendment Will Exploit Connecticut Shooting.' So predictable, since they are John Bircher Society (Koch) followers. No, I won't post the link.

This country is sick with its focus on dead things and not living beings. Not that faux 'pro-life' mantra the right tries to sanctify the rest of their anti-human agenda with to the public.

We need to focus on living and letting live. Eveyone will, as Obama said, be holding their children a bit closer tonight. If only people would focus on the blessing they have, this would be a saner world.

these brethren are seriously fucked up. We must fight them, but we must not hate them, or we will become them.

I replied to two infuriating comments just now, and I suspect more of the same would be posted.

I am very proud that I voted for this man

The president was unafraid to be seen feeling what we all feel today and I salute him for it.

I remember the pride I felt both times going to my voting place and filling the circle next to his name, and I feel it now seeing him represent my own feelings. He is an eloquent speaker, a kind father, and the kind of person I want to see leading our country.

I'm glad to have him as my president.
I know what ever action he ends up pushing on this will have a proper mix of logic that he's known for, and the emotion of a loving father. Somehow I think security around his girls went up a notch or two.

I can't help but think of all on this planet suffering from greed and violence from any source no matter what the claim used for justifying it.

all day. I wish I could stop the crying but I feel so sorry for the families who lost loved ones. This is unbelievable. Something has to be done.

He didn't mince words.

And stop this from ever happening again?

I don't understand what you mean, but I'm very proud of this president!!

I have long been sick of this protect your freedoms crap. These children and people have totally lost any ability to experience "freedom".

Yes, the "freedom" to be murdered in a movie, a shopping mall or a kindergarten.

Got me choked up here too...

This is simply heartbreaking. Those poor children (babies actually).

The Presidents grief is deeply moving.

I agree

Republicans need to understand that quality instead of making it a slur.

I'm not a dad myself, but I would be worried too. It is so clear his daughters are precious to him and Michelle. A powerful moment.

like all of ours.

when I heard the coverage. As the grandfather of elementary aged grand kids, I had a hard time keeping it together.

For me he evokes Bobby's great Humanity.

it is the "ACTION". He must lead now, I agree with Bloomberg and others who have called for a national debate on the right to bear arms.

I can't imagine W (or God forbid, RMoney) shedding a tear in public over this tragedy. I truly hope something positive comes from this horrible event, but not getting my hopes up. Randi said on her show yesterday that these pigs in Congress took no action on guns after one of their one, Gabby Giffords, was shot, so don't expect anything from the majority of these bough-and-paid-for pieces of human garbage.

Says the President cried because he's so stressed about being President and having to deal with so many things. Jerk Off

got us one great president. god to think how scared the last 100 days of GWB gave me.

could not get through without tears. Sad day, sad nation, sad world.

the missiles dropping from drones he authorized.
Where are his tears for those children?
Where are yours?

he shed tears when he gave the green light for the two Johns to roll the big bus over Suzie Rice? "This is a mans world....but it wouldn't be nothing, nothing, nothing without a woman or a girl."
