Would I be surprised if there were spambots spouting Obama's gun control message, but I highly doubt Obama himself signed off on them. The article is very misleading, acting as though the President himself is doing this.

At any rate, I would label this article a firm MEH

Yeah ... I just saw that about an hour ago. Pretty bad but not surprising.
Maybe the most disturbung thing is that we're at the stage where this kind of deception rates only a "MEH" by some.
 
The article has no proof that Obama has any hand in this, yet it is titled in a way to make people believe he is. I expected some proof, yet got none. Hence, the MEH.
