Obamabonds –Net Right Daily
(Politico) What does a president give to himself who doesn’t believe that we have a spending problem–the authority to raise his own credit limit and spend as much money as he wants.
White House Press Secy Jay Carney today during his daily press briefing would not rule out the possibility that the Obama Administration won’t mint a $1 Trillion coin to keep its spending spree going.
In 2011, Kurt Brouwer, Chairman of Brouwer & Janachowski a financial advisory firm in Northern California wrote in WSJ/MarketWatch that the U.S. won’t default on its debt obligations if Congress doesn’t raise the “debt limit” despite all of the hyperbole by the dinosaur media and loony liberal lefties–there is sufficient receipts for the government to continue making interest payments, it will just have to prioritize spending if the debt ceiling isn’t raised.

(Weekly Standard) VP Joe Biden revealed, that Chairman MaObama, may abuse his presidential power by legislating by ‘Executive Order’ to deal with guns and the 2nd Amendment which he finds antiquated.
“The President is going to act,” said Biden, giving some comments to the dinosaur media before a meeting with victims of gun violence. “There are executive orders, there are executive action that can be taken. We haven’t decided what that is yet but we’re compiling it all with the help of the attorney general and the rest of the cabinet members, as well as legislative action that we (in our infinite wisdom) believe is required.”

Law of Gravity –Sara Casm
(WashingtonTimes) Rep Mike Thompson (5th California) chosen by House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi to head Congressional Democrats new effort to ban assault weapons said on Saturday, that using the term “gun control” is unhelpful.
This must be something like not saying Islamic Jihad Terrorist Thugs but instead calling them man caused disasters or the global war on terrorism, overseas contingency operations so that one doesn’t offend the Islamic Terrorists that support crashing airplanes into buildings and murdering as many Americans as possible.
(The Blaze) The United States does not have a spending problem–at least President Obama reportedly doesn’t believe so, telling House Speaker John Boehner, during recent negotiations regarding the ‘fiscal cliff’ at the White House—Yes, Boehner was shocked to hear those words from Obama given our $16.4+ Trillion out of control, runaway federal deficit.
(Washington Post) The Obama Administration is weighing far broader and more comprehensive approach to disarming law abiding American citizens than simply reinstating the assault weapons ban.
A working group led by VP Joe Biden, is considering measures that would require universal background checks, tracking a weapons ownership through a national database, strengthening mental health checks and stiffen penalties for carrying weapons near schools or giving them to minors.
How would of any of these proposed federal mandates have prevented a deranged madmen, intending to murdering anyone that got into his/her way and expecting to commit suicide instead of being arrested?
