  • The big problem with these countless and countless government agencies is that no one anywhere is either in charge, control, knows what is going on, or even what they do or how many there are. WTF, its only taxpayers money. Some sleazebag gets elected and has to take care of his asskissers, buddies, or lovers and get some serve no function or duplicitous agency created to get them on the government gravy train. In turn, people are hired and promoted based on who they know or who they blow, and more likely both. No agency or committee, no matter how totally effed up and or worthless is ever terminated. Read various accounts of 9/11. Numerous agencies (that all appear to me to do the same thing) were receiving countless reports of terrorist aged muslim men getting flying instructions, but not take offs or landings, plans to use airplanes as they were used, etc etc etc.....all ignored by the worthless fucks in charge. No one was ever disciplined nor fired. No agencies combined nor simply gotten rid of. And none of the elected POS in the Cesspool On The Potomac can figure out why we are broke and that taxes are skyrocketing.
    Sorry about the length of this rant.

  • The ATF comes across as the gang that couldn't shoot straight, think straight or pay its rent.

    This story is big news here in Milwaukee. But there's an interesting split: Republican politicians want a complete investigation of this fiasco while Democrat politicians (including the Congresswoman whose district covers the area involved) are downplaying it. Still, the Milwaukee Journal, our liberal newspaper, did give front page coverage of the entire mess.

    • Democrats don't want to investigate a fiasco created by an agency in the Obama administration? Who woulda thunk it?

      • I always wanted to open a gun shop/liquor store/nudi-bar/car wash/stop and rob/Laundromat/check cashing store/dirty book store/oil change and lube place, and put them all under one roof, I am thinking there might be a problem with the gun store/nudi bar combo from some citizens (I am sure the ATF and other feds would be there nightly) but for some odd reason my bride keeps saying no, I think it would make millions, if I called myself a member of the Jeep Cherokee tribe like Lizzy Warren, I could open a casino and really cash in.....
