Obama says he won't be bound by gun control ban in omnibus

The Obama administration won't be bound by a gun control ban in the $1 trillion spending bill for 2012, the president said Friday.

The funding provision for the federal health agency says that "none of the funds made available in this title may be used, in whole or in part, to advocate or promote gun control." The language aims to ban taxpayer dollars from supporting gun safety research.

"I have advised the Congress that I will not construe these provisions as preventing me from fulfilling my constitutional responsibility to recommend to the Congress's consideration such measures as I shall judge necessary and expedient," Obama said in a statement as he signed the bill into law.

what's to be expected from a man who doesn't enforce other particular laws because he deems them unneeded or similar... without relying on the supreme court to make that decision (i believe it was in relation to marriage / gay rights stuff or something).

I would expect nothing less from this ya-hoo.

Gotta love how he invokes the Constitution while stating he's going to flat out ignore it.

The worst part is that both the executive and Judaical branches of our government are operating completely out side of their constitutional authority. And the vast majority of the county either dose not care because they think that these people are going to give them something, like other people's money, or are simply so wrapped up in their own lives that they pay no attention to what is going on. Bad days are at hand if this all is not addressed and soon.
