As announced on Good Morning Joe this AM..an un-named Democrat has reported their are no where near enough votes for any gun control measures that would include a weapons ban or mag ban. They have taken an internal poll and the votes ain't there for that kind of bill. Registration, background checks is about all they will get.
Re-load and carry on..............
Looks like Obama may have to use an Executive Order somehow.
Not that I know anything much about constitutional law, but I would think that kind of executive order could and would not stand.Quote:

They'll get no "registration" from me... and when I pass, my survivors will absolutely get all of my firearms.
Not to say he will not try it, but if he did I believe the congress would be all over him like the secret service on a gun carrying person in DC today.....Quote:

Since he used to teach Constitutional Law, one could easily believe he regards himself as an expert on the topic. With his next Supreme Court justice appointment, the Constitution will mean whatever he says it means, anyway.Quote:

Here's a snippet I picked up:
Let us continue to write our legislators and keep the pressure up.Quote:
(Bill) Clinton, speaking to a group of Democrats at the Obama National Finance Committee Saturday, said gun control gets a special emotional response from people in rural states, and dismissing pro-gun arguments can backfire.
“Do not patronize the passionate supporters of your opponents by looking down your nose at them,” Clinton said, Politico reported.
This might just be a head fake, folks.
Registration is one of the worst things that could happen. That would be the lead in to everything else.
This statement undermines the gravity of the situation. It makes it seem harmless.Quote:

I firmly believe the administration to be in for the long haul on this one, with a willingness and the ability to come at it from all directions, on all fronts. The president has waited his entire career to fight this one, and now that it is here, it shall be fought, long and hard.Quote:
