A moose once bit my sister
Barack Pulu Si Bagumba* Obama mocks hunters:
Palin’s bio is “compelling,” Obama said.
The crowd booed. “No, it’s an interesting story.” More boos. “No, no, it is. I mean that sincerely. Mother, governor, moose shooter.”
* bonus points if you get that one without googling.

Gilligan’s secret words to the headhunters. Unfortunately, he’d been dead so long, he forgot.

It was the tone, delivery, and context. It was definitely mocking.
Also, calling someone who is engaging in the act of hunting a “shooter” instead of a “hunter” is derogatory. Obama’s intent was likely to draw a parallel to “school shooter” and to pander towards the anti-hunting crowd who believes hunting is murder. It also implies that they violated fair chase laws and hunting ethics, though likely that part wasn’t part of Obama’s intent – that would require that he actually knew anything about hunting or gun owners.

Why are his kids entitled to be protected by armed quards while they are in school and no one elses kids are?

Bwahahahah Oh, that’s rich. Or, maybe Obama just isn’t as in tune with the hyper-sensitive hunters as he should be.
I’m sure she stalked and killed her prey with precision and the utmost highest code of carnivorous ethics.

Umm, who said they aren’t? There are plenty of schools with armed security guards. It just so happens that congress passed a law which allowed candidates and their families secret service protection after Bobby Kennedy was shot and killed in the 1968 Democratic Primary.

yeah, but his kids weren’t shot at school. Also there is a huge difference between an armed security guard at a school and a team of bodyguards with responsibility for just one child. Nice try, if one overlooks the deceit.

um..McCain’s family as well as the families of Biden and Palin are both entitled to this protection too. As is the George W. Bush family and the families of past Presidents like Clinton, Bush Sr., etc.

Yeah, but Biden and Obama are trying to take away my firearms and free exercise thereof, denying me the right which they both freely engage in.
The best obama can do to attract hunters and shooters is just to shutup and let the liberal media continue to work for them. Now if they could only silence those gun bloggers. Hmm….
