Actually, I think it makes an immense amount of sense for an incoming administration of either party to do this sort of in-depth vetting of prospective employees. It’s not like they’re applying for a job at Kinko’s.

“I guess they don’t know that in 99% of the country there is no registration of firearms.”

– Yes they do. They just have no intention of hiring anyone from those parts of the country!

No questions concerning use of illegal drugs although the last catch-all question theoretically covers that.

So, just how did Obama pass this test? Not for anything, but if the incoming Administration wants to torpedo anyone all they need do is release their application. It is a roadmap for the press.

Personal injury … does the buttstock-shaped bruise on my right shoulder count?

Property damage? Thousands of innocent clay pigeons, hundreds of tin cans, some unfortunate pumpkins…

“I guess they don’t know that in 99% of the country there is no registration of firearms. ”

I have a feeling that when Barry figgures that out (and I suspect he ISN’T aware) he might look into changing that.

Warm up the “But we Register Cars” rebuttals.

“whether it has been the cause of any personal injuries”–I’m sure that’s only there to eliminate Dick Cheney’s application.

You can hear the *snap* of the rubber glove.
I like Claude’s question and don’t understand why it’s not on the list.
My old Colt 1909 .45LC did go to the Philippines and maybe did hurt (or at least scare) somebody over there…

I have a BP howitzer that I tow behind my pickup. It has a license plate, as the state considers it a small utility trailer. Does that count as a registered gun? We have no other registration laws here.
