"Ten Bills In The First Ten Hours"
"Ten Bills In The First Ten Hours"

The Uninvited Ombudsman has received reliable confidential reports that the Obama administration, working closely with Nancy Pelosi and Harry Reid, may attempt to introduce and enact ten new bills in the first ten hours of his presidency. You may recall Democrats tried something similar but less ambitious when they took control of Congress in 2006, and were hampered by a Republican in the White House.

Any attempt to do so -- hiding contents, avoiding debate, removing representation and defeating democratic principles -- would be an intolerable act. The need to respond if such a subversion of democracy is attempted would be immediate. We should all hope for the best, and prepare for the worst. Keep your eyes peeled.

1- Obama Litmus Test

The lamestream media told you:

Change is coming, change is good, we've got to get this country back on track, Obama has said we will "fundamentally transform" the greatest nation on Earth.

The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:

Change can be good depending on what the changes are. Changes that "fundamentally transform the greatest nation on Earth" into something else might not be good, especially if they increase statism, decrease human rights or disregard personal property and individual liberty.

To gauge the nature of coming changes, use The Obama Litmus Test. If these test items are attempted, "change" might require a public outcry of undefined proportions. Complaint, uprising or actual rebellion? Time will tell.

The Obama Litmus Test:

"Do not tread here."
-- Internet "gatekeeping" or taxation
-- Confiscated or reduced personal retirement accounts (401K and IRAs)
-- Radio suppression with speech-control doctrine
-- Curtailing of existing gun rights
-- Required "volunteerism"
-- Mandatory centralized health care
-- Defense reductions through a deceptive "Peace Dept."
-- Ceding sovereignty to the U.N.
-- Legislating with executive orders
-- Reparations schemes
-- Tax increases under $250K
-- Enactment of a spate of bills without debate (so-called "ten bills in ten hours")

2- Obama's Gun Plans

The lamestream media told you:

Nothing, although Sarah Palin and the GOP are trying to decide what to do with her clothes.

The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:

Obama's opening salvo in his war against gun rights has been officially posted on the president-elect's site -- http://change.gov/agenda/urbanpolicy/

The Tiahrt amendment, which prevents every local police and sheriff's office from fishing through federal firearm records will be repealed. Currently, only BATFE is authorized to access the sensitive data, provides it to local LEOs as needed and only while conducting bona fide criminal investigations. NY mayor Bloomberg is instigating this, to get his hands on the data and advance his harassing lawsuits against the gun industry. The Uninvited Ombudsman predicts the next step will be complaints that most private gun ownership data is not in federal hands, and can't be searched "to keep Americans safe."

This line is too good not to quote: "Obama and Biden also favor commonsense (sic) measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners, while keeping guns away from children and from criminals who shouldn't have them." This includes something called, "making guns in this country childproof." It's not clear what that means, but respecting 2A rights, and making sure guns don't work "for the children" are incompatible goals. The Uninvited Ombudsman predicts that police will be unilaterally exempt from dangerous inoperability schemes.

Private sales of firearms are on the list for suppression, using the deceptive "gun-show loophole" scheme. McCain's widely supported but failed proposal called for cleverly closing gun shows completely. http://www.gunlaws.com/GunShows/index.htm The Uninvited Ombudsman predicts that any private transfer of a firearm will be wrapped into this package when it is announced.

The final posted plan for "respecting the Second Amendment" includes a new bill under the euphemism of a "permanent assault weapon ban," for weapons that "belong on foreign battlefields and not on our streets." American marksmen who have memories remember that Clinton's ban under this title banned guns by name, looks, cosmetic features and petty details. Most odious, sale of normal capacity magazines were outlawed, and only magazines with a limit of 10 rounds could be purchased, forcing prices to rise from about $15 each to more than $150. Although Obama worked to ban all semi-automatic firearms in Illinois, the Uninvited Ombudsman does not predict that this will happen on the first go around, since it might force people to take to the streets in protest.

Whether an attempt will be made to confiscate or outlaw existing unfavored firearms is unknown.

In other news, every proposal on Obama's website is about doing more to you or "for" you, expanding government, spending on new projects and increasing existing ones, and applying social and legal pressure to force society to change.

5- A Tough Shot

The lamestream media told you:

The Associated Press reports, "An 8-year-old boy died after accidentally shooting himself in the head while firing an Uzi submachine gun under adult supervision at a gun fair. The boy lost control of the weapon while firing it Sunday at the Machine Gun Shoot and Firearms Expo at the Westfield Sportsman's Club, Police Lt. Lawrence Valliere said.

"The boy was with a certified instructor and 'was shooting the weapon down range when the force of the weapon made it travel up and back toward his head, where he suffered the injury,' a police statement said. Police called it a 'self-inflicted accidental shooting.'"

The Uninvited Ombudsman notes however that:

The horrific tragedy of an accidental death to a child is beyond imagining. The news media loves such local stories, because they can play them up nationwide, while avoiding real news that poses real threats to people at every corner of every state in the land. It also helps vilify gun ownership, a major "news" goal, making a single tragedy news for days on end, thousands of miles away, while ignoring the threats to your life that kill hundreds of people daily right near you.

Also beyond imagining is how an eight-year-old could simultaneously squeeze and hold the hard backstrap grip safety of an Uzi and the trigger, both necessary to make the gun discharge, while pointing it at his head.
