I hope this isn't a repost. If so I apologize .


I know this is long, but read what has happened to us RIGHT NOW not proposed for the future. I know that the press has reported the Democrats withdrew the ASW ban for a bill pending, but do we know the rest of the story....................

Here is a list of 23 Executive Orders our president has signed to take effect IMMEDIATELY after March 16th by his much abused power to issue executive orders. Here is the source if you want to fact check this: http://www.theatlanticwire.com/politics/2013/01/obama-executive-actions-gun-list/61075/

"After a brief press conference with Vice-President Biden at the White House on Wednesday, President Obama bucked the conventional wisdom and signed into law several executive actions intended to reduce gun violence in the United States. As we've noted, Obama can't avoid major legislative battles with these measures, but some are sure to have immediate impact. Here's the full list, followed by instant reactions and some more presidential memos from the White House today:

Gun Violence Reduction Executive Actions

Today (3/16/2013), the President is announcing that he and the Administration will:

1. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal agencies to make relevant data available to the federal background check system.

2. Address unnecessary legal barriers, particularly relating to the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act, that may prevent states from making information available to the background check system.

3. Improve incentives for states to share information with the background check system.

4. Direct the Attorney General to review categories of individuals prohibited from having a gun to make sure dangerous people are not slipping through the cracks.

5. Propose rulemaking to give law enforcement the ability to run a full background check on an individual before returning a seized gun.

6. Publish a letter from ATF to federally licensed gun dealers providing guidance on how to run background checks for private sellers.

7. Launch a national safe and responsible gun ownership campaign.

8. Review safety standards for gun locks and gun safes (Consumer Product Safety Commission).

9. Issue a Presidential Memorandum to require federal law enforcement to trace guns recovered in criminal investigations.

10. Release a DOJ report analyzing information on lost and stolen guns and make it widely available to law enforcement.

11. Nominate an ATF director.

12. Provide law enforcement, first responders, and school officials with proper training for active shooter situations.

13. Maximize enforcement efforts to prevent gun violence and prosecute gun crime.

14. Issue a Presidential Memorandum directing the Centers for Disease Control to research the causes and prevention of gun violence.

15. Direct the Attorney General to issue a report on the availability and most effective use of new gun safety technologies and challenge the private sector to develop innovative technologies.

16. Clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.

17. Release a letter to health care providers clarifying that no federal law prohibits them from reporting threats of violence to law enforcement authorities.

18. Provide incentives for schools to hire school resource officers.

19. Develop model emergency response plans for schools, houses of worship and institutions of higher education.

20. Release a letter to state health officials clarifying the scope of mental health services that Medicaid plans must cover.

21. Finalize regulations clarifying essential health benefits and parity requirements within ACA exchanges.

22. Commit to finalizing mental health parity regulations.

23. Launch a national dialogue led by Secretaries Sebelius and Duncan on mental health.

Many gun advocates are already upset with provisions No. 16 and 17, so here's some more clarification on Obamacare and these executive actions. And with the NRA and its new ad campaign — along with local law enforcement — set to being a wave of public reaction (the NRA's response Wednesday afternoon drew heated responses and a video, plus teachers chiming in), here is the full release explaining each directive:

From another Rant...but I think is relevant:

 

Obama is the steam behind the Liberal train. They feel invincible because of him and the past 2 wins against the odds. He came out of nowhere, was black and won because of the novelty, the black and minority vote as well as the white "I want to make history" stupid voters that looked like a red shirt at a Mormons meeting in Washington during the 2008 Inauguration. He won the second term for much the same reason, even though he had done nothing for the country in ANY capacity, (Other than hang the Albatross "Obamacare" around our necks)  nor for those that voted for him (too blind to see the 15% black unemployment, Besides, the preacher said to vote for him) AGAIN. Couple this with the stupid conservative voters that stayed home because they "didn't like Romney" voter.  I mean hell, vote Obama OUT and regroup in 2016!!!!  NO...we had to sit on our asses and let the liberals win again!  Thus, we now have the "invincible" feeling the left is enjoying that I first mentioned. If the Liberal baby kill'n; freedom hating bunch of dweebs (and everything else ThePunisher said) had NOT won the second term, we would NOT be in this battle over the 2nd amendment.  Plain and simple.  The Liberal DWEEBS feel that they have 2014 in the bag because of Obama and the confidence they feel because of him!!  That's why they don't give a rat's shiny red butt  what anyone thinks, they can run whatever they want up the flagpole and it will fly.

 

 

 

LISTEN TO ME........IF EVERYBODY DON'T GET OFF THEIR BUTTS AND VOTE IN THE MID TERMS AGAINST THIS BUNCH OF IDIOTS....IT-IS-OVER-PEOPLE!!!!!!!

 

 

 

Has the Right got their act together?   NO!!!  But with Paul, Cruz and Rubio kick'n but right now, I'm hoping they will shake up the party and WAKE THE OTHERS UP!!! We DON'T need McCain (Thank you for your service , but it's time to go) Graham Lindsey (just go!!) and others like them need to EXIT.....The rest should take up sides with the younger guys or exit the door. The old party will not win.

Excuse me if wrong ... but aren't these the same ones from earlier in the year. The article you link to is dated January 16, 2013? Is this something new and I've mis-read?

It takes a while for news to spread. 

[hipower]

Yes, you're right, npgunner. These are the 23 EO's from the Jan. 16, 2013 "I'm Great. Look at  what I'm doing for you pep rally". Uh.. I mean the Jan. 16 press conference. But they are just as much notable now as then in that we need to be constantly reminded of the threat O and Joe, along with all the others, pose for us and the 2ND Amendment.

[npgunner]

Ok. Just wanted to make sure I didn't need to pop an extra blood pressure pill over something new ... I'll just revert back to the standard "Obama is President" dose I've been on since November

[Randall53]

But...November could tie his hands until the 2016 elections......something to think about.

Smoke signals...go figure.

I'm afraid most of the liberal states do not agree with our views or stances on politics.  Republicans will end up caving on most of the difficult choices that are going to come up in the next couple of years.  One of them is the illegal immigration issue.  We need a true conservative to step up and lead, maybe Ted Cruz can get 'er done.

I addition to the other 4000 he already signed.

He needs to go. He is a dictator, Not a President.

[kieefer]

Highlight of the day;

 

Nearly half of the crowd at Saturday’s Elite 8 game between Syracuse and Marquette at the Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. booed President Barack Obama when he was shown on the big screen with just over ten minutes to play in the first half. After the boos erupted, a contingency of Obama supporters countered with cheers.

 

He's among his brothers here isn't he?  :lol:

[Guest nra37922]

The only thing I want to see Cornelius sign is his resignation...

[Guest 6.8 AR]

That number 23 is the most insidious of the bunch. Sebelius is an appointed fool communist effectively in charge

of the largest health care system in the world. She is essentially a dictator and will use mental health a a way to grab

every gun the rest of the commies want her to.

 

Just hearing her is enough to make me heave.
