Here Comes the Executive Order on Background Checks

[Bill of Rights]

And what would happen to a "R" that met with the Koch brothers to discuss curtailing a right?

The same thing that should happen to a "D" meeting thusly:

A barrel of tar, a barrel of feathers, and a nice, stout fence rail to run him out of town on.

I've been threatening for the past 7 years to invest in tar and feathers...

Note: remember to use pine tar and not the kind on driveways. Pine tar is liquid at or not far above room temperature, and can be applied without leaving severe burns unlike paving tar. Remember the point is to humiliate rather than do bodily harm.

$15 a pound, not sure if this is a good price or not. The viscosity is right though.

Somehow, I think no one will care. Because those two get a hall pass.

And for extra fun, Obama is hobnobbing with Michael Bloomberg to come up with a plan.

Meh, you beat me to it. Does anyone know of anything that can be done to nullify an EO?

 

[rugertoter]

It just might happen this time...
Gun sales: White House to seek expanded background checks

It probably will, but I actually was surprised that it did not happen already.

About all that can be done to stop an EO is a law suit. It's not like judicial appointments matter. Kinda ****ed up isnt it?

Impeachment. Ignore the order.

 

[jamil]

Impeachment. Ignore the order.

His administration won't ignore the EO and congress doesn't have the votes to impeach him. The president can do whatever the people will let him get away with.

Said again for emphasis, YOU can't be charitable with OTHER people's money.

Truth! Taxes are still theft even if you do fill out a form.

We would be hearing more wailing and gnashing of teeth if a R president met with the Koch brothers to discuss whether they preferred their eggs fried, scrambled, or poached for breakfast.

A barrel of tar, a barrel of feathers, and a nice, stout fence rail to run him out of town on.

Sounds good.

Pine tar is also flammable. It works for me.

This tread is turning epic!

This. Republicans run the house and senate. Nothing is happening in regards to gun control during the next presidential term.

Unless by EO, which is limited to feel good crap that's already on the books. Basically, nothing can really be changed by EO that will effect us.

The ONLY way I'll vote solely on gun rights is if there's a candidate that promises to expand carry laws to allow me to carry in all 50 states. That would indeed gain my vote.

Presidents appoint Supreme Court Justices. Gun cases that hit the Supreme Court usually go 5-4. Lately we've been lucky to have 5 pro-gun-rights justices up there, but that won't last if you all go vote Democrat.

QFT
I can not understand how anybody refuses to acknowledge this truth.
If you have ANY "justices" claiming "The right of the people to keep and bear arms." doesn't mean what it says need the above mentioned tar and feathers.

Yeah, and the next president will appoint at least one, probably two of them.

Has anybody given a date when EO is going to happen?

Latest rumour now, is it will be around the time of the State of the Union address, (12 Jan 2016). The proposed EOs are undergoing legal reviews by the Justice Department.

Latest info;

President Barack Obama can look back on 2015 and take credit for landmark deals over Republican objections on climate, Iran and government spending. The year 2016 may be a tougher stretch, because he’s promising action on another thorny issue: gun control.

The new gun rules -- coming in weeks, White House Communications Director Jen Psaki told reporters on Friday -- open a final year in office for Obama in which he will employ his personal authority to win major policy changes and assert himself in the November elections, making him far more visible than his predecessors, aides said.

"Since taking this office, I have never been more optimistic about a year ahead than I am right now. And in 2016 I’m going to leave it out all on the field," Obama said today at a White House news conference before departing for Christmas vacation in Hawaii.

Obama’s self-assurance at a point in the political cycle when presidents often are relegated to lame-ducks culminates a year in which he has made full use of the powers of the presidency to reach ground-breaking international agreements and drive a domestic agenda over the opposition of a hostile Congress.

Sounds like it may be on like donkey kong or it could be nothing. We'll see how far he wants to push this megalomaniacal final year thing.
