Changing the 'Change We Can Believe In', and it hasn't even been two weeks yet

Mark Alexander, at the Patriot Post US:

"While President-elect Barack Obama hasn't yet established his Ministry of Truth, there are signs that he's going to rewrite history to suit his needs. Witness the scrubbing of his change.gov Web site, which last week had 25 different agenda items sought by the coming Obama administration. After controversy first erupted over the oxymoronic concept of mandatory volunteerism, the site originally changed its tune but then dropped the agenda items entirely, instead substituting a vanilla mission statement.

Obama plans to be aggressive in his use of executive orders, beginning by rescinding several signed by President George W. Bush which promote a socially conservative agenda, such as those dealing with embryonic stem cell research and abortion funding. Another Obama target is the Second Amendment. The Obama/Biden team vows to not only close so-called loopholes at gun shows and create other regulations such as trigger locks, but also to take guns "off the streets" by reinstating the grossly misnamed "assault weapons" ban. When was the last time readers saw anyone waltzing down the street with a semi-automatic black rifle looking to make trouble? And did Obama notice the Supreme Court decision in June that involved the Second Amendment? Indeed, he did. If fact, he supported the Court's Heller decision in favor of the right to bear arms, if only out of gross political expediency.

Obama's change.gov site originally had a full anti-gun agenda, but that was wiped away along with his other promises. What was posted previously was a claim to "favor commonsense measures that respect the Second Amendment rights of gun owners," but by making the gun of one's choice more difficult to acquire and use, the incoming Democrats are eroding the intent of the Founding Fathers, as well as the letter of the Constitution."

And as well we know, these won't be the only changes to the "Change We Can Believe In" lies from the last campaign.

Think taxes, specifically "tax cuts for the middle class".
