Guns will sell, as usual, among those to whom guns are illegal and unauthorized already. If the manufacturers are closing open sales in these states, they also should not honor requests from law enforcement as well.

This will reduce *lawful* ownership of handguns, which is a stated goal of the Left.
I would love to see all police firearms microstamped. I mean, it's for 'safety' right? And cops might even be stupid enough to leave their brass lying around.
Rule? Nice ring to it for a despot.
[Daily Caller] White House officials say President Barack Obama will continue to aggressively use his control of federal agencies to impose his progressive agenda on the economy and society throughout 2014.
He'll largely continue to ignore GOP legislators, except to push GOP leaders to accept an amnesty for at least 12 million Democrat-leaning illegal immigrants, according to several White House officials who outlined the strategy to the Washington Post.
"Washington Stalinist veterans have been brought into the West Wing to emphasize an executive style of governing that aims to sidestep Congress more often," said the approving Washington Post article. The new plan "is to bring all of the government alive in a way we have never been very good at," said another official.
"We'll be doing that as aggressively as possible.... and if we succeed, that is a big presidency," and a very small constitution,
a senior administration official told the Post.
Obama's goals are more ambitious than what he had expected to get from the GOP after his 2012 reelection, an official said.
"Even in the best case -- if the [GOP's] fever had broken and the clouds had parted -- we still would have only gotten maybe 40 percent of what we wanted," said the official, who echoed Obama's frequent description of the GOP's conservative beliefs as the incoherent ravings of a sick patient. Declaring your opposition insane was a familiar them in Stalin's Russia.
The new "pen and phone" strategy appears to be a more aggressive version of the post 2010 "We Can't Wait" strategy, in which Obama ha repeatedly promised to implement progressive policies when the GOP-led Congress refused to pass them. "Pen and phone" please beware of constitution and gun.
Numerous GOP legislators, including House Speaker John Boehner, have protested Obama's unilateral actions as lawbreaking and unconstitutional. Speaker Boehner, thou protesteth too much. Time for a legislation strike, legal actions, declarations of 'high crimes and misdemeanors,' sit-in on the Capital steps, along with a citizens march on Washington.
"If you look at what this administration has done -- from Obamacare to the Environmental Protection Agency to the [immigration enforcement], the rules and regulations and executive orders that he rolls out on the fly -- it is quite clear that he ignores what is in the law and he does what he wants to do," Louisiana Rep. John Fleming told The Daily Caller.

In modern usage, the term "dictator" is generally used to describe a leader who holds and/or abuses an extraordinary amount of personal power, especially the power to make laws without effective restraint by a legislative assembly[citation needed]. Dictatorships are often characterised by some of the following traits: suspension of elections and of civil liberties; proclamation of a state of emergency; rule by decree; repression of political opponents without abiding by rule of law procedures; these include single-party state, and cult of personality.

Now, now, the Bammer + Globies haven't PCorrectly-Deniably surrendered East Asia + 1/2 of the Pacific to China yet, i.e. ordering the USDOD-Navy to attack the PLA while also simultan ordering US forces to NOT arrive on time in-theater, so clearly the Artic is wrong - at best, is premature.
* IIRC TOPIX, WORLD NEWS > THE WORST YEARS OF OBAMA ARE NOW UPON US.
Espec iff the USN is going to deploy only two CVNS + BGS at any one time starting in 2015
Lest we fergit, MSM-NET = FEARS OF CHINA/PLA-LED, "NUCLEAR(?) PEARL HARBOR" IN PREEMPTIVE STRIKE VEE LRBMS AGZ MAJOR OR KEY US BASES DURING A PROTRACTED PERIOD OF SEQUESTRATION.
What more iff POTUS BAMMER = "D *** NG IT, I ORDERED YOUSE TO ATTACK - I DIDN'T SAY ANYTHING ABOUT ATTACKING IN A TIMELY MANNER"!

Congress needs to grow a pair and put this executive nonsense into the courts for destruction. Each and every executive order must be challenged on the basis of the founding articles of the Constitution.

The Achilles Heal is his responsibility per the Constitution to faithfully execute the laws passed by Congress. There are no doubt many that he refuses to execute. Therefore list them and impeach him based on the ones he clearly and flagrantly refused to execute.
Congressional Repubs are completely compromised.At least the old-guard Establishment. Obama's NSA has the goods on all of them, that's why they're all looking for a way to roll over.

I think the nation's capital should be on a random rotating basis every 4 years.
Every 4 years a city, of all the cities with a population of 100K to 1M (but not over), is chosen to be the next capital for the next 4 years. If someplace like Nome Alaska gets chosen then so be it. If someplace like bumfluck TX gets chosen - that will be the capital.
Put all the departments in double-wide trailers which get hauled around. Max 5 trailers per department excluding Defense.

The one thing democrats and republicans can agree upon: the tea party must go.
There is a merging of the two major parties. They certainly speak to different philosophies but the results are the same: more borrowing, more spending, more taxing, more printing and less freedom

My Dodge has this nasty habit of almost smacking any bumper with a Obama bumper sticker and then the horn inexplicably blows. Obama bumper stickers, new cause for spontaneous road rage.

Even some of Obamas closest advisers acknowledged that hesometimes appeared distant in meetings before the disastrous health-care rollout in the fall.
Sometimes I wonder whether the Obama administrations absolute and total contempt for its most rabid supporters is based on the same thing as my absolute and total contempt for its most rabid supporters. Because lets face it: if you spent eight years screaming about Imperial Presidencies and Unitary Executives and how George Bush was a unilateralist cowboy and similar agitprop, this passage should be the equivalent of a poisoned-tipped dagger in the kidney.
Senior adviser Dan Pfeiffer outlined the lessons learned in a three-page memo that Obama discussed with his Cabinet in recent weeks, according to several administration officials who have read the document.
Among its conclusions is that Obama, a former state legislator and U.S. senator, too often governed more like a prime minister than a president. In a parliamentary system, a prime minister is elected by lawmakers and thus beholden to them in ways a president is not.
As a result, Washington veterans have been brought into the West Wing to emphasize an executive style of governing that aims to sidestep Congress more often.

White House officials noted that [speechwriter] Keenan started growing a beard at Thanksgiving and wont shave it until after the State of the Union.
Kinda also explains why a homeless guy started showing up and doing the WH press briefings as well...

Wonder if he will touch upon alternate transportation and space exploration ?

POTUS' Champ's speeches have gotten so predictable, stale, and tired. Obama speech fatigue has set in--long ago. Nothing to hear from the empty suit.
A multi-volume chronology and reference guide set detailing three years of the Mexican Drug War between 2010 and 2012.
Rantburg.com and borderlandbeat.com correspondent and author Chris Covert presents his first non-fiction work detailing
the drug and gang related violence in Mexico.
Chris gives us Mexican press dispatches of drug and gang war violence
over three years, presented in a multi volume set intended to chronicle the death, violence and mayhem which has
dominated Mexico for six years.
Rantburg was assembled from recycled algorithms in the United States of America. No
trees were destroyed in the production of this weblog. We did hurt some, though. Sorry.
"Obama will be ready to rule on day one."
"All within the state, nothing outside the state, nothing against the state."
Even some of Obamas closest advisers acknowledged that he sometimes appeared distant in meetings before the disastrous health-care rollout in the fall.
