Obama angered more over gun control defeat than Boston bombing

It's quite telling when a President of the United States appears more physically emotional and angry over the defeat of an anti-gun bill yesterday, a key piece of legislation that was to mark the beginnings of his second term agenda, than the bombing of innocent Americans on Monday. Who's playing politics, sir? Who's using emotionalism and lies to advance their agenda? Here, just compare the two...

Address on Boston Marathon bombing:

Couldn't bring himself to calling it terrorism until the next day.

Tantrum over gun control bill's defeat:


You're shameful, Mr. President.

Unfortunately, this won't be the last attempted seizure of liberties that we'll have to resist over the remaining four years of this president's term.

ADDENDUM: He's also angrier over this than Benghazi, as Rush points out. Rush explains that he's actually so ticked because it went down in flames in the Democratic-controlled Senate, rather than the Republican-led House. This was supposed to be a House defeat that he could use against Republicans in the 2014 midterms...
