We weren’t the only observers who thought that the National Rifle Association jumped the shark when CEO Wayne LaPierre laid out his absurd plan to place armed guards in every school. If you thought the NRA couldn’t get more absurd, well, check out their new ad via CNN

The National Rifle Association released a new television commercial Tuesday night charging President Barack Obama of hypocrisy for being “skeptical” about placing armed guards at schools, while his own two daughters are protected by the U.S. Secret Service.

“Are the president’s kids more important than yours?” a narrator says in the 30 second ad. “Then why is he skeptical about putting armed security in our schools, when his kids are protected by armed guards at their school.”
