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

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.
