16. What is wrong with my comments?

Here we go again.

Same thing happened in 2008.

Gun manufacturers secretly donating to Obama.

I am being sarcastic and cynical. I am pointing out that Obama being re-elected is good for their business.

"Obama the gun grabber" who hasn't grabbed any guns.

I am pointing out that the NRA uses Obama as a boogey man, even though he hasn't pushed for any gun control legislation. They will continue to use him in their fund raising letters. For them, a strong pro-gun president would be a financial disaster as they wouldn't have an enemy to point at, although Obama hasn't been much of an enemy these last four years.

In what way are those offensive?
