Obama Forced FBI to Delete 500,000 Fugitives from Background Check System for Gun Purchases!

Dianne Feinstein: “It’s my understanding that under federal law fugitives cannot legally purchase or possess guns. We’ve heard from local law enforcement that the Justice Department has issued a memo that forced the FBI NICS background check database to drop more than 500,000 names of fugitives with outstanding arrest warrants because it was uncertain whether those fugitives had fled across state lines. Mr. Bowdich, can you describe why this determination was made by the Justice Department?”

David Bowdich: “Yes, ma’am. That was a decision that was made under the previous administration. It was the Department of Justice’s Office of Legal Counsel that reviewed the law and believed that it needed to be interpreted so that if someone was a fugitive in a state, there had to be indications that they had crossed state lines. Otherwise, they were not known to be a fugitive, under the law, and the way it was interpreted.”

So the question left begging... Just how many women is Trump trying to shut up?

Sooner or later, and in consideration of how things are going, some wag is going to find use of the phrase, "the-Valley-of-the-Dolls Presidency."

Hmmmmm, I wonder who the Barbara Parkins character would be?

The question I have is: Just how jealous is blatham of Donald Trump's sex life?

Deputy Blaine Gaskill – Hero who took out Great Mills High School shooter

Unlike the Broward Cowards like Scot Peterson, Deputy Blaine Gaskill is being hailed as a hero for engaging the Great Mills High School shooter, taking him out and preventing another tragedy like what happened at Parkland in Florida.

I was wondering something similar.

Do you really think that someone draws attention to the sexual behavior of another simply out of "jealousy"? You mean like the right's unrelenting fascination with the peccadilloes of Bill Clinton?
