Leftists like to call conservatives fascists, but it is the fascism of the Left that is taking hold.  Two more pieces of evidence as part of a massive cumulative case:<\/span><\/p>\n

Obama Willing to Use Executive Orders on Guns<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n

\n

At a news conference<\/a> on Monday, exactly one month after the school massacre in Newtown<\/a>, Conn., Mr. Obama said a task force led by Vice President Joseph R. Biden Jr. had \u201cpresented me now with a list of sensible, common-sense steps that can be taken to make sure that the kinds of violence we saw at Newtown doesn\u2019t happen again. He added: \u201cMy starting point is not to worry about the politics. My starting point is to focus on what makes sense, what works.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

The quotation is ungrammatical ("kinds of violence . . . doesn't"), but that is the least of it.  How can any serious individual speak of making sure that events such as Newtown don't happen again?  Every reasonable person knows that there will be similar occurrences.  The astonishing attitude betrayed here is that the federal government, by merely passing laws, can eliminate evil from the world.  The risibility of this notion is compounded by the content of the laws being proposed.  Must I point out that behind this foolishness is lust for power?  The Left is totalitarian from the ground up and this is just further proof of the fact.<\/span><\/p>\n

To say that sales of guns and ammo and accessories are brisk would be an understatement.  Expect it to become brisker still.  POTUS has just given the people another reason to arm themselves.  <\/span><\/p>\n
