In the midst of tragedy...

Seems El Presidente definitely wants to make sure he doesn't forget to placate his voter base.

Here's the statement from the White House regarding today's shocking shootings at Virginia Tech:

"A White House spokesman said President Bush was horrified by the rampage and offered his prayers to the victims and the people of Virginia. "The president believes that there is a right for people to bear arms, but that all laws must be followed," spokeswoman Dana Perino said."

The President believes that there is a right for people to bear arms???? What the hell does that have to do with being horrified by the rampage and offering his prayers to the victims????

Guess he just wanted to make sure the NRA didn't get any sort of crazy idea that he might be thinking of taking away their guns.

UNBELIEVABLE!
