COMMENTS:
* I think I despise and disrespect "conservatives" (aka right wing nutters) more every day. There is no insult against the President they won't join in on. There is no nasty motivation they won't accuse him of. I can understand having policy differences, but this level of unrelenting hate is beyond acceptable.
* Americans !! When will you come together and live like Human beings instead of hating and killing each other. President Obama is not the one dividing the USA, it`s you the haters and corrupt politicians.
* As a father, thinking of those kids murdered at Newtown brings tears to my eyes. It has nothing to do with Con or Dem but more to do with your humanity. Are our guns so important to us we will continue to live with kids getting killed at elementary schools? Do enhanced checks and closing loopholes to get guns threaten us so much that we will tolerate another Newtown? I mean at what point does it get to where enough is enough.
* apparently it does have something to do with con or dem. con leaders mock the idea of even crying for murdered kids. those who do not should reconsider where they stand.
* Let them mock him...Consider the source, those talking heads will do and say anything for a paycheck. Obama I wept with you, you are a man with a heart.
* Apparently, conservatives lack sympathy for those who suffer.
* ... the truth is, they just don't care about dead kids as much as they do playing with ammo. The president cares, and they can't even understand why.
* The GOP only like politicians who weep for the "Right" reason. People like John Boehner, who could weep at the drop of a hat, going on to the floor of the House of Represenatives, Boehner wept for the passage of TARP and the bail out of Wall Street, but you never saw him weep for the plight of working families or the victims of injustice. Conservatives will admire a politician who weeps about money, but they have no patience for anyone who weeps for the poor, the powerless or the murder of children.

Conservatives Mock Obama For Crying About Newtown School Shooting
“It’s not really believable," said Fox News host Andrea Tantaros.
By Igor Bobic, January 5, 2016
President Barack Obama issued another impassioned plea on Tuesday for Congress to take action to curb gun violence, shedding tears as he recalled the 2012 Newtown school massacre.
"Every time I think about those kids, it gets me mad," the president said as he unveiled his executive actions on gun control.
It was an emotional moment. At other times during his presidency, Obama has teared up about the 20 children at Sandy Hook Elementary School who died at the hands of a gunman. The nation averaged more than one mass shooting a day in 2015, according to some counts.
After the president's speech, however, prominent conservatives mocked Obama for displaying his emotions about the tragedy and suggested they weren't authentic.

“It’s not really believable. And the award goes to… we are in awards season," Tantaros said.

Co-host Meghan McCain -- daughter of Sen. John McCain (R-Ariz.), whom Obama cited in his speech as supporting expanded background checks for gun purchases -- echoed that sentiment.
“It just didn’t seem horribly authentic. And maybe it is; I don’t know him at all,” McCain said. “Go to your hometown of Chicago instead of talking about God-fearing Americans when ISIS is coming to their hometown."
