"President Barack Obama once quipped: 'We’ve expanded my authorities under executive action.'"
"No kidding, Mr. President."
"Who needs Congress? Not the president of the United States."
"Here’s another example of how the president — will simply fire off one his infamous executive orders to accomplish his wishes if he doesn’t get what he wants through the legislative process."
"Just recently came news that the administration plans to ban the manufacture and sale of one of the more popular bullets for AR-15 semiautomatic rifles."

This latest constitutional/law circumvention by the Obama administration serves a distinct purpose. Its yet another "camel's nose" under freedom's tent serving as "stare decsis" in rationalizing some future circumcision of yet more calibers, bullets, and firearms. |

QUOTES
TO REMEMBER |
After having thus successively taken each member of the community in its powerful grasp and fashioned him at will, the supreme power then extends its arm over the whole community. It covers the surface of society with a network of small, complicated rules, minute and uniform, through which the most original minds and the most energetic characters cannot penetrate, to rise above the crowd. The will of man is not shattered, but softened, bent, and guided; men seldom forced by it to act, but they are constantly restrained from acting. Such a power does not destroy, but it prevents existence; it does not tyrannize, but it compresses, enervates, extinguishes, and stupefies a people, till each nation is reduced to nothing better than a flock of timid and industrious animals, of which the government is the shepherd. — Alexis de Tocqueville |
