Barack Obama claims Adam Lanza used a fully automatic weapon at Sandy Hook

We learned yesterday that Barack Obama is using a 20 year old survey of 250 people to make the unsubstantiated claim that 40% of all guns are purchased without background checks in an attempt to manipulate the narrative to draw support for universal background checks.

With his credibility on this issue now in serious doubt Barack Obama showed us again today that he is willing to bend the truth in order to advance his agenda. Here is what Barack Obama told Democrat donors about the Sandy Hook massacre:

Now, over the next couple of months, we’ve got a couple of issues: gun control. (Applause.) I just came from Denver, where the issue of gun violence is something that has haunted families for way too long, and it is possible for us to create common-sense gun safety measures that respect the traditions of gun ownership in this country and hunters and sportsmen, but also make sure that we don’t have another 20 children in a classroom gunned down by a semiautomatic weapon – by a fully automatic weapon in that case, sadly.



Well that is an interesting slip of the tongue, don’t you think? But was it a slip of the tongue or was is a deliberate lie by the president designed to forward his agenda? If he misspoke and then corrected himself, why did his correction include the false information while his first statement contained the official story we have been told about Sandy Hook?

I say the official story because the story we are being told now is not the same story we were told at first:

And when you look at the Fast and Furious and Benghazi cover-ups the Obama regime has a fleeting relationship with the truth and a strong history of not being completely honest with the American people.
