Apparently No One Texted Chelsea The Talking Points

Apparently, Chelsea Clinton didn't get the message that her mom -- Sen. Hillary Clinton -- is now a big-time Second Amendment supporter.

At a rally in Billings, Montana a few days ago, the former first daughter told supporters that the country needs to do more with gun control laws.

"During a question and answer session before seniors and other supporters at the Yellowstone County Council on Aging Office Friday morning, Chelsea said, "We also need to do more with gun control. And my mom supports- naturally what she supported in New York. Which is: we have different gun control laws in New York City than we do in upstate New York."

"The younger Clinton made her remarks in a response to a question from Yellowstone County Commissioner Bill Kennedy (D), who asked her what efforts
could be made to get more cops on the street. Kennedy introduced Democratic
Presidential candidate Hillary Clinton before her speech in Billings on Tuesday night, where he said that Senator Clinton would protect Montanans Second Amendment rights."


Hmmm . . .

Now tell me, because I am really trying to understand this . . . what does "doing more with gun control laws" have to do with helping put more cops on the street? Anyone?

I'm assuming Chelsea carries a Blackberry, so she is likely subject to "up-to-the-second" texts from Team Clinton Headquarters regarding talking point strategies. Too bad no one told her her mom loves gun owners -- well, at least as long as she needs their votes.
