MILLER: Tax dollars for gun control Sneaky executive order bankrolls anti-Second Amendment
Washington Times ^ | 1/18/13 | Emily Miller

The directives on gun violence President Obama signed Wednesday were meant to seem harmless. A closer look at the president’s first memorandum reveals it to be a sneaky assault on congressional authority in order to fund gun-control propaganda.

Getting this done has been on the White House “to do” list for some time. In his 2013 budget submission, Mr. Obama deleted the prohibition that has been in effect since 1995 on the use of federal funds to advocate or promote gun control.

Mr. Obama is trying to steamroll the Democratic and Republican majorities that kept the ban intact by labeling the advocacy as research. “While year after year, those who oppose even modest gun-safety measures have threatened to defund scientific or medical research into the causes of gun violence, I will direct the Centers for Disease Control (CDC) to go ahead and study the best ways to reduce it,” said Mr. Obama.

Under the terms of the memo, CDC may “sponsor” another entity to conduct the research, which is a handy way of funneling taxpayer cash to sympathetic gun-control groups.

Earlier this week, anti-gun activists, including New York City Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg, spent a lot of time at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health in Baltimore discussing how the government-spending prohibition was hampering their plans.

Those EO's were/are sneaky to they that can't or won't read.

Anything that establishes a commitee or program is in effect a policy to accomplish the opposite of what the wording sounds like.

During Clinton’s anti-assault rifle Jihad, the TV aired a seminar with a doctor telling lawyers how the assault rifle was the equivalent of that contaminated water pump in London’s 1854 cholera outbreak.

He showed all kinds of bogus charts to prove how assault rifles spread violence like that pump spread cholera. And this roomful of supposedly educated people nodded their heads wisely and scribbled furiously.

I wrote the studio pointing out that this was similar to the medieval surgeons’ practice of bandaging the sword that caused a wound in an effort to promote healing. Naturally, I never got an answer.
