Chris Christie turns his wrath on NRA for ad involving Obama daughters



The NRA pulled no punches in its new ad attacking President Obama for attempting to impose stricter gun control measures, calling Obama an "elitist hypocrite" because his daughters attend a school with armed guards. The White House pushed back against the ad, and on Thursday, POTUS' most unlikely political BFF, New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie — never shy about speaking his mind — came out in support of his pal. Christie didn't pull any punches either, pointing out that being the daughters of a president means a security detail is a requirement. Christie slammed the NRA for politicizing children to advance an argument, calling it "reprehensible."

Chris Christie slams NRA’s Obama daughters ad

http://www.politico.com/story/2013/01/chris-christie-slams-nra-obama-daughters-ad-86365.html

New Jersey Gov. Chris Christie blasted the National Rifle Association for an ad that pointed out President Barack Obama’s daughters have armed protection, calling it “reprehensible” and saying elected officials’ kids should be off-limits.

“I think any of us who are public figures, you see that kind of ad and you cringe,” he said during a news conference at which he announced a task force on guns and mental health.

Christie, a potential 2016 presidential contender, is the most prominent Republican to voice displeasure with the ad.

The spot calls Obama an “elitist hypocrite” for being skeptical of having armed guards at schools even though his daughters get Secret Service protection.

“Are the presidents’ kids more important than yours?” the narrator asks in the ad.

Christie’s hackles went up when he heard that.

“I’m a father who is a public figure, who has four children and my children had no choice realistically in what I decided to do with my career and what effect that has had on their lives,” Christie said, according to a NorthJersey.com blog post.

“Don’t be dragging people’s children into this,” he said. “It’s wrong and I think it demeans them and it makes them less of a valid trusted source of information on the real issues that confront this debate.”

Does the NRA's New Obama Ad Finally Go Too Far?



After skirting the lines of decency for years, gun lobby pulls the president's daughters into the debate.





Has the NRA finally gone too far?

The National Rifle Association has been skirting the lines of decency for years, but the gun-rights group stoops to a new low with a Web ad calling President Obama an "elitist hypocrite." The ad criticizes Obama for giving his daughters Secret Service protection while expressing skepticism about installing armed guards in schools.

The ad is indisputably misleading, and is arguably a dangerous appeal to the base instincts of gun-rights activists.



In a the 35-second video, a deep-voice narrator asks, "Are the president's kids more important than yours? Then why is he skeptical about putting armed guards in our schools when his kids are protected by armed guards at their school?"

The fact is, Obama is not opposed to armed guards in schools. Indeed, many of the nation's schools already hire security. This is what Obama is skeptical of: the NRA's position that putting more guns in schools is the only way to prevent mass shootings.

The president wants to ban assault rifles, require background checks, and ban high-capacity ammunition. He does not want to confiscate guns, despite the NRA's unsubstantiated warnings to the contrary.




Christie: NRA is ‘reprehensible’ for targeting Obama’s daughters

It's comparing apples & oranges, and fails to emote "elitism" as would pointing out the many Concealed Carry Permits carried by ANTI-Second Amendment legislators/politicians.

 I think pointing out the unfairness and folly of taking prized and expensively purchased guns from tens of millions of innocent, law abiding Americans simply because of a tiny handful of certifiable psychotics is a better, more reasonably grounded argument.

He hid behind them like the pussy he it !

Into it yet his own are off limits . It's not just him or Dems either . Are the nobility in DC kids more important than everybody else . That was the point of the ad. Rosey fatty trashing guns while waking around with armed body guards. Sickening Hypocrits !

The 2nd amendment is crystal clear. Protect against militia.  If the militia wants to come for your ass they'll blow you up from Florida or New York and you'll never know what hit you.

Kids were killed in Ct. and that's why he had kids at his press conference.  Again 6 year old reading for Gate Gatsby.

And CentCom is Middle East but you wouldn't know that either because you're full of shit and been a coward you're entire life.

Nice hack job on the 2nd amendment . It was put in place to keep tyrants like YoBoy in check.

At least you didn't echo that piece of shit who told black school children that Whitey put it in to keep them down.

Let me up !

If Obama wanted to drone your ass all the combat guns in the world wouldn't save you.

So using guns with multiround magazines that are meant for combat and combat only would be completely ineffective.  That amendment was written in 1791 and Heller made clear that any gun control measures are legal and well clear of Amendment 2.  And what's great is the ignorant chickenshits like Alias Gate Sucker have 4 more fucking years to bitch and moan and not a thing they can do about it because they can't win an election until long after Alias Bitch Gate Sucker is dead and in the ground.
