Rules for thee, but not for me

Shortly after the DC attorney General announces they won't prosecute David Gregory for his clear violation of DC gun laws, we get this gem.

Spokesman Jay Carney read a statement, saying, "Most Americans agree that a president's children should not be used as pawns in a political fight. But to go so far as to make the safety of the President's children the subject of an attack ad is repugnant and cowardly." (Relating to the NRA's as against the administration's dismissing he idea of armed guards in public schools.)

Later, during the President's statement on new gun control measures, "President Obama spoke standing near to four [pawns, um, I mean,] children who had written him letters...about gun violence. 'These our our kids. This is what they are thinking about."

Ridiculous.
