Sen. Joe Lieberman (I-Conn.) told CNN on Monday that the Connecticut shooting was a "tipping point" and added that if President Obama wanted to take action on gun laws by using an executive order, "God bless him."

Where exactly in the Constitution does it grant the Executive Office the power to proclaim these orders? This practice needs to be stopped or at least voted on by Congress.

This whole thing is going down as a pre-deterrmined checklist being acted on by the left. All the traps are in place and have been for some time. It just took someone like Lanza to light the fuse.

Oh in that case, can you issue one saying every law abiding citizen with his head on straight must own, and know how to operate it?

And make it free.

Thanks!

Good question, but an Executive Order certainly cannot contravene the Constitution or overturn a Supreme Court decision (so why were the feminazis afraid that Romney could take away their stupid birth control? He could NOT have done anything of the sort!)

To: Obama_Is_Sabotaging_America

you’re an jerk.

Do you speak about your Mother like that?

Let’s look at WWII. LOT’S of Dads died in the war with only their Mothers left to raise the kids...Did we have this kind of killing then? No?

Let’s look at Korea...hmmm, not to much kids killing then either.

Vietnam, more lost Dads not too many kids going around killing...

Too many MEN having MAKING kids, and NOT staying around to help raise them...

IF you’re going to BLAME the women, blame the LIBERAL women, not ALL women.

Obama isn’t the only one sabotaging America obviously, people like you are helping him by talking bull$sh@t like this.

I’m just not sure anyone in D.C. would mutter a peep to stop anything that came from the anointed one. I believe he has cast a demonic spell over the place. Is there no one who can stand up against a wimp like him?

Lieberman I always knew you were a little weasel. I remember your trip to Odessa, Texas when you were running for VP under Gore.

You really thought you could create some problems down there...didn’t ya?

Calling you a weasel, by the way, is being kind. Your own party couldn’t stand you...bye bye.

He’s retiring, thank God. Let’s not forget - he is John McCain’s best buddy. Birds of a feather, and all that rot.

Chris Rock just bragged that in his latest movie, “he got to kill all the white people.”


I’m guessing it was Jamie Foxx, the idiot, that said that.

Lieberman: If Obama Can 'Do Something' About Guns by Executive Order, 'God Bless Him'

Just when I think the state of the nation couldn't get more incredibly bizarre and unbelieveable, it actually does.

There has been a concerted effort for some time now, to marginalize not only the Founding Fathers, but the founding documents, all of them: the Declaration of Independence, the Federalist Papers (all 85 of them,) the Constitution, and the Bill of Rights. All under assault for a couple of decades now, and reaching a critical stage.

"That whenever any Form of Government becomes destructive of these ends, it is the Right of the People to alter or to abolish it, and to institute new Government, laying its foundation on such principles and organizing its powers in such form, as to them shall seem most likely to effect their Safety and Happiness..."
"... But when a long train of abuses and usurpations, pursuing invariably the same Object evinces a design to reduce them under absolute Despotism, it is their right, it is their duty, to throw off such Government, and to provide new Guards for their future security.--"

When one of the most respected current politicians is quoted as uttering what can only be described as treason, what is the informed populace to do?
"governance through executive Order?" The Bill of Rights has become the Bill of freakin' Suggestions?

All Branches of the goverment have declared themselves through their actions as irrelevant? Everyone forgot what checks and balances means?

This is Winning the Future?

Feels scarily more like a bloodless coup.
