is... wishing Americans would wake up before it is too late.

My gosh, the SOB couldn't come up with a plan to regognize and intervene in his own son's plans ... and he's going to help come up with a national strategy? ROFLMAO
that's worse than Obama's 'tax dodging' Treasury Secretary.
White House Prepares to Use Executive Action Against Guns
posted on January 7, 2013
(Note: Take this for what it is worth. I have not done any checking it out, or tried to do any verification - GP)
It took a while for the cracker jack journalists in the mainstream media to figure it out, but the Washington Post finally ran a story about how President Obama is considering a “comprehensive approach” to gun control, rather than just reinstating the former federal assault rifle law.
Of course, they buried the lede, as journalists used to say, which is contained about seven paragraphs down, after the jump (emphasis mine):
“In addition to potential legislative proposals, Biden’s group has expanded its focus to include measures that would not need congressional approval and could be quickly implemented by executive action, according to interest-group leaders who have discussed options with Biden and key Cabinet secretaries. Possibilities include changes to federal mental-health programs and modernization of gun-tracking efforts by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.”
Given Obama’s love of executive orders, it isn’t really a surprise that he would want to be able to track citizens’ guns or declare people insane with a stroke of the pen. Remember, this is the administration that as one of its first acts issued a report labeling military veterans, conservatives and tea party groups as potential terrorists.
It’s also not much of a surprise that the mainstream media would bury this latest power grab by the Man Who Would Be King. They’ve ignored or buried most of the president’s unconstitutional actions, when they weren’t openly cheering him on.
The Post story comes right out and explains some of the cynical tactics Obama may use to gain support for his gun grab, such as persuading Wal-Mart that supporting restrictions on gun shows will garner new customers at its stores that carry guns. It’s the “useful idiot” tactic right upfront, in the open, in black and white.
The White House doesn’t even bother to do these things in secret any more. I’ve all but given up hope that American liberals will remember where they misplaced their brains and realize what’s going on with this Administration. People who pay attention, though, should consider this a warning, and hopefully this information might filter up to the executives of Wal-Mart and other companies Obama may hope to enlist as dupes.
According to the Post, the White House is also talking to religious leaders, mental health professionals and hunters in an effort to isolate and neutralize the NRA.
Since the Administration is politicizing the Sandy Hook killings to legitimize its disdain for the Second Amendment and the rest of the Constitution, time is a critical factor, as the Post’s sources note.
Sheriff Richard Stanek, who attended a White House meeting on gun control, told the Post, “The vice president indicated that there was a very short timeline for him to get back to the president with his recommendations because the American public has a short memory.”
Conservatives need to brace themselves for a political blitzkrieg aimed at taking away not only gun rights, but likely free speech, privacy, private property and a few other rights that the Left doesn’t want us to have. The next month will almost certainly have lasting implications for the future of our country.

Yes sir,he certainly is ...
I see they decided to 'postpone' it, after the hearing room filled up with pro-2nd Amendment folks. But they'll keep trying.
Welcome to BARMS jt6455. We have a lot of good folks here, who have a lot of great ideas ... and they're all pro-Constitution.
Drop by anytime. Your input is always welcome.
ROFLMAO - Absolutely correct!
Yep, I sometimes overestimate the mentality of the liberal herds ... and give them credit as being able to think, and reason.
I know I shouldn't but ...
Thank you ...
Oh yes ... it narrows their potential target list down considerably!
If these reporters were half as smart as they think they are .. they wouldn't be working for a jack leg liberal newspaper in the burbs ..
Yep, I think they've counted their chickens too soon.
Amen ...
Indeed ... to support and defend the Constitution of the United States.
Guess we'll both be out there doing what we have to do because, like you, no one has relieved me of any oath.
I may be old, and you may be older .. but I don't think there are too many out there who would want to come close to any fox hole we were occupying! LOL
Try to have a good New Year. I sure am going to try!
I agree wholeheartedly.
Big Time!
I just don't know how many of us there truly is these days.
Not through constitutional methods ... that will be history by then .. and not too far in the future either, IMO.
I can only speak for myself. I hope you are correct.
My oath upon entering the Army did not carry an expiration date to my knowledge.
Amen - Clean the bill up, and take off all the unrelated junk.
That is what helped put us in this mess to start with - all the unpassable, unrelated spending tacked on the bills that should be passed.
They're all set to ram this down our throats, in spite of the Constitution, Supreme Court decisions, or whatever .... and the stupid liberals will be all for it.
I think I might be starting to better understand how the Jews felt in Germany, when Hitler was preparing them for the Holocaust.
Whatever is politically expedient at the time ... and Reid's constituents are pro-gun.
That might well be the best solution.
I truly think, at last, that people are getting fed up.
Already have ... one dozen of the most expensive red roses money can buy!
NOT!
Oh my, that is more frightening than Hillary ... but certainly not beyond the realm of possibility, by a long shot.
Makes me gag to even consider it ...
Yep .... Imagine that~!
I know, but I haven't heard him saying a word about enacting more 'gun control', or bans.
I certainly agree ... the media is nothing but sharks, anymore.
They'll keep on lying and exaggerating and whining until they get their way, or at least part of it.
Sort of funny ... since she and Bill were reported as being in Dom Rep yesterday, with plans to attend New Years' celebrations there .....
So, if she suddenly developed this clot requiring emergency hospitalization ......... why would she fly all the way back to New York to get it?
My theory is once she found out the press had busted her out for being in Dom Rep, she immediately flew back to New York and there 'suffered' this 'clot' requiring hospitalization.
There is nothing beneath this woman.
Well I read the synopsis.
She needs to be shipped back to Kalifornia with a new coat of tar and feathers.
These heartless SOBs were politicizing that scshool killing before the poor kids' bodies were cool, salivating over the thought they had finally found the incident that would enable them to come a-grabbing for America's guns.
It's going to be touch and go for sure.
Reid I think values his politicial career more than to throw it away in one grand finale like that.
But, on the other hand .... I too am very concerned.
Well, it's making headway.
Sounds good to me!
Our best hope now is that Crazy Harry Reid will want to maintain his positive ("A") rating with the NRA, and will prevent this from ever coming to a vote, at best, or at least insuring it fails...
Very entertaining!
thanks PW!
It's a sure thing the media wasn't circulating it very widely!
Sorry about the truck .. I know the feeling! Especially bad at Christmas time!
Seen the prices of stuff on Gunbroker? .223 ammo going at $1.00 a round .... AR's that were bringing $750 last week now bringing in $1200 or more ...
30 round mags priced at up to $35 - $ 40 each .. EACH! They were $12.99 last week!
The prices on Gunbroker have skyrocketed .. Ammo is there but you'll pay huge prices for it - about double compared to a week ago, in many cases. Same with Hi-cap mags .. I see some mags, that were selling for $15 a week ago, are now priced at $40 or $50 each. Price scalpers are going nuts.
Nice afternoon - peaked around 63 .. A couple of my neighbors and I went out shoooting. A real fun afternoon.
Gather in the emergenc food and supplies .. I think the show is headed your way!
Did you check out the entire lineup? Seems the media picked about the most unflatering phiotos they could find of many of the folks there. Some surprises (to me anyway) though.
I imagine Lohan is pro-Chavez today ... certainly she can't be considered one of the most stable folks in the country.
Agree ... the so-called 'news' sucks. I watch my local station news nightly at 6:00 ... sometimes ... but that's about it!
Warmer today ... just over 53 degrees right now. Going shooting this afternoon if the rail will stay away long enough! Then tonight ... probably snow flurries, and tomorrow the high is 33 or something equally hideous.
The Congo ruined me as far as cold weather!
Be safe!
