Vice President Biden pledged Wednesday that President Obama will bypass a reluctant Republicans in Congress and take executive action to curb gun violence, prompting a full-blown fit from conservative gun rights backers.
Biden heads a White House task force set this month to release proposals in response to the Newtown shooting. He told reporters before a Wednesday meeting with gun violence victims and gun control groups that Obama will not let Republican resistance prevent action.
"The president is going to act. There are executives orders, there's executive action that can be taken," Biden said. "We haven't decided what that is yet." Biden said Obama will also offer legislative proposals.
The Vice President's remarks set a tough tone ahead of another meeting Thursday with pro-gun organizations including the National Rifle Association and Wal-Mart, the nation's leading seller of firearms.
"I want to make clear that we're not going to get caught up in the notion that, unless we can do everything, were going to do nothing," said Biden, who was joined at the meeting by Attorney General Eric Holder.

Where the hell are the K st frauds !
Is Bonehead at the bar again !
Good Lord; Bite-me said Obungo will use “executive action” to bring about gun control. Doesn’t that ignoramus know what “executive action’ means?
Dick Cheney guarantees Bush will bypass reluctant Democrats and cement new speech control laws (by executive order).
The media would be calling for impeachment, 24/7 news coverage of the Constitutional crisis, a count down would start for Bush's forced resignation. And you know what? That would be the right response because a president who did this is violating his oath to uphold the Constitution.
Now compare that to the media response to this headline...
That stupid so-and-so might as well try to ban Vise-grips or barbecue grills.
Before you know it we’ll have amnesty for illegal aliens and a nationalized health care system! /s
Its a trap. Biden couldn’t guarantee the sun will rise tomorrow.
Because if your elected officials can take our rights by edict you truly have no rights. Today's anti-gun dictator may become tomorrow's anti-speech dictator.
Regardless what he “allows” or forbids, only a dictator creates or takes rights with the stroke of a pen.
“Dick Cheney guarantees Bush will bypass reluctant Democrats and cement new ABORTION control laws (by executive order).”
Calling Dr. Phill!
And of course, anyone else the least bit reverant to the Constitution.
"The prince's will has the force of law."
Obama cannot pass a law.
To those who didn't vote for Romney, You hold some responsibility for what we're now facing. You saw the destruction Obama did in his first term, but you had more rage for Romney. I blame a good portion of what we're currently facing with this Tyrant on these so-called “Patriots.” Hope you can look at yourself in the mirror. I'd be ashamed if i were you.
They are losing and they know it.
***************
I think the grabbers are soon to be amazed they are leading on this issue without the masses in-tow.
The masses are pissed and now know for a fact which party is after their 2A rights. Will they remember this in 2014 or 2016? Will the pubbies be smart enough to remind them?
Hey Joe, don't you mean "El Presidente"?
Keep your powder dry and be ready to lock and load.

Yeah. I just wish the GOP in DC would go on the offensive.
Make no mistake, Obama's going to try doing this by executive fiat, the TYRANT!
"At that moment we no longer live in the America we grew up in, but in tyranny and oppression."
IMHO, we already live in an America far different than the America we grew up in.
With Obama, tyranny and oppression can only get worse.

1. Joe is a drunken stupid lying idiot.
ObaMao has already crossed the anti free speech threshold. Remember his director of whitehut communication requesting forwarding private emails to them from anyone criticizing their takeover of healthcare... among other usurpations.
For those who were not around or who were not paying attention, back in the 1980’s, Joe Biden was one of those far-left aholes like Metzenbaum that proposed gun-control laws every month.
It was one of his pet projects and it drained a lot of money and resources and diplomatic leeway from the NRA.
They have been trying for decades to kill the 2nd Amendment by a thousand nicks.
Now they are just going for the Taliban-style beheading.
What do you mean may?
Someone should make a movie about it.
“Stroke of the pen. Law of the land. Kinda cool.”
> How to describe a tyrant:
“The prince’s will has the force of law.”
more like Satan’s will has the force of law and it’s obvious he’s backing Obama’s efforts all the way. I’ve never seen anyone that has events line up to fit his agendas the way they do or the ability to control weak minded fools the way he does. He has someone’s “blessing” and I know it ain’t God’s

As long as it’s the kind of cement job Jimmy Hoffa got....
First they need to restrict the ability to executive by the the president; it’s obvious there’s not enough checks and balances in this regard.
First they need to restrict the ability to use executive orders by the the president; it’s obvious there’s not enough checks and balances in this regard and it’s being abused against the offend people. He must have seen this loophole before he ran for president.

Unfortunately there are too many (low information) voters who actually disagree with us on this.
Chowder head Biden has sniffed too much cement glue.
There's also the 2nd Amendment thingy. I guess the NY Daily News isn't aware of it.
Yes SIR!! They are about to piss us off— and they don’t want that. No they don’t.
If Joe believes what he is saying, why fart around with Congress at all, Just let Obama get the job done.
Dick-tator Obama, the One, The where all and be all. The Savior.
Write it up bama-boy. let’s get this show on the road.
The sooner it’s done the sooner we can get America back on the right path.The Constitutional path.
Yeah but I thought the Supreme Court has previously ruled that the President can not use an executive order to create a new law. Of course with the enemy of liberty and freedom (a.k.a. Chief Justice John Roberts) sitting on the bench no telling what can happen.
I consider this an act of war.
