Obama Lied About Guns, Too!

Obama was against gun control before he was for it


By Douglas V. Gibbs

Obama was lying before he even entered the White House. He lied when he said he didn't know Rezko.  He lied when he claimed he had no connection to ACORN.  Barry lied about not having lobbyists, and he lied how common voting "present" is in Illinois.  When he said he'd get rid of earmarks, he was lying.  Obama lied when he said, "We will go through our federal budget – page by page, line by line – eliminating those programs we don’t need, and insisting that those we do operate in a sensible cost-effective way."  He lied about his plans to have the most transparent administration in history, and he lied when he said he didn't know that Jeremiah Wright was a radical. His claim that his mother, Ann Dunham, spent the months before her death in 1995 fighting with insurance companies that sought to deny her the coverage she needed to pay for treatment, was a lie.  Obama's claim that he would raise the minimum wage to $9.50 was a lie.  Barack Obama lied about his relationship with terrorist Bill Ayers, and he lied about his uncle being a part of the force that freed Auschwitz during World War II.  He said there would be no more wiretapping of American citizens, and he claimed he'd walk the picket line with union workers if they were ever denied the ability to collectively bargain.  He lied both times.  Obama also lied about closing Guantanamo Bay, and he lied about not being somebody that promotes same-sex marriage.  He lied when he said there would be no earmarks in the Stimulus.  Obama lied about cutting the deficit, and he lied about making sure the health care deals would be on C-Span.  He lied about initiating PayGo.  Obama lied when he said, "We shouldn't mandate the purchase of health care."  Barry lied about taxes, and when he said we've run out of places to drill for oil in the United States.  He lied when he said, "If you like your health care plan you have you can keep it," and he lied when he said, "Under our plan, no federal dollars will be used to fund abortions, and federal conscience laws will remain in place."  Barack Obama lied about reining in abuse and excess in our economic system.  Obama lied about no boots being on the ground in Libya.  He lied when he told us it was the GOP's fault his jobs bill didn't pass.  He lied about how much he's done regarding Israel's security, and he lied about Romney on a continuous basis during the election season. Obama lied when he told us the Benghazi violence was caused by an internet video and demonstrations.  And finally, he lied when he said, "I will not take your guns away."

Reports are now all over the place about Obama's plans for gun control, and with Biden spear-heading the effort, they plan to do more than return to the ban of "assault" weapons, and increase registration standards.

Democrats, and Barack Obama, in addition to a federal ban on assault weapons, and high-capacity magazines, plan to require universal background checks for gun buyers and track the movement and sale of weapons through a national database.

The measures in planning would also strengthen mental health checks and stiffen penalties for carrying guns near schools or giving them to minors.

In addition to the idiocy of disarming law-abiding citizens, leaving them to be nothing more than potential victims of gun-wielding criminals, federal actions against the right to keep and bear arms is unconstitutional.  The Law of the Land is very specific in the 2nd Amendment, telling the federal government that individual gun rights "shall not be infringed."  As a member of the unorganized militia, it is our duty to be armed, for the purpose of protecting our nation from a tyrannical governmental system.

Apparently, he lied about being a supporter of the Constitution, too.
