The Presidents Devotional: What Obama Did In Secret In Newtown (EXCERPT)

[mobeau69]

The families came in and gathered together, room by room. Many struggled to offer a weak smile when we whispered, “The president will be here soon.” A few were visibly angry—so understandable that it barely needs to be said—and were looking for someone, anyone, to blame. Mostly they sat in silence.

I went downstairs to greet President Obama when he arrived, and I provided an overview of the situation. “Two families per classroom . . . The first is . . . and their child was . . . The second is . . . and their child was . . . We’ll tell you the rest as you go.”

The president took a deep breath and steeled himself, and went into the first classroom. And what happened next I’ll never forget.

2. After hearing what the moron said to La David Johnson's mom today this came to mind.

I'll never understand how we went from such a strong and good leader to what we are enduring now.
