Well, as Paul Begala said while a Clinton aide in 1998, "Stroke of the pen. Law of the Land. Kinda cool."

What self defense rights advocates must be vigilent for is the kind of executive order written by Bush I, making foreign made rifles illegal via the tax code.

An executive order, everyone should note, that was never rescinded by Bush II, another reason the Bush Crime Family should never be elected to public office again.

No, the president does NOT have any such "authority." Of course, that hasn't stopped them from doing pretty much whatever they please for a long time.

Monarchies have a habit of losing their power when the monarch meets the guillotine. Something perhaps all those interested in history and its forewarnings should note.

A long train of abuses and usurpations.

"He has erected a multitude of New Offices, and sent hither swarms of Officers to harrass our people, and eat out their substance."

This one sound familiar?
