Barack Obama, the lead Presidential Democratic Party candidate, is for banning all guns in America. He is considered by those who have dealt with him as a bit more than just a little self-righteous.
At a recent rural elementary school assembly in East Texas,he asked the audience for total quietness. Then, in the silence, he started
to slowly clap his hands once every few seconds, holding the audience in total silence.
Then he said into the microphone, "Children, every
time I clap my hands together, a child in America dies from gun violence."
Then, little Richard Earl, with a proud East Texas drawl, pierced the quiet and said: "Well, dumb-ass, stop clapping!"
