Obamacare prohibits doctors from collecting gun information

One of President Obama's 23 executive orders regarding gun control,  Order 16, states federal agencies will “clarify that the Affordable Care Act does not prohibit doctors asking their patients about guns in their homes.”

Wait just a minute. An executive order cannot change a law passed by Congress. In haste to pass the unread 2800-page Obamacare bill, Senate amendment 3276, Sec. 2716, part c, was overlooked. This amendment says the government cannot use doctors to collect "any information relating to the lawful ownership or possession of a firearm or ammunition."

Apparently this amendment was added by Harry Reid in order to keep the NRA from joining the fight aagainst Obamacare.

  1. Quite frankly, I think it shows a lack of faith in Obamacare from Obama himself. It would seem that he didn't think as many people would visit and/or try to sign up for his own law. That is not a good sign, folks.obama care open enrollment 2015
