ANOTHER GUN SCANDAL


Federal prosecutors announced charges Friday against two Sacramento County sheriff's deputies accused of illegally selling dozens of weapons, some of which authorities say fell into the hands of criminals. The deputies were charged with serving as straw buyers by purchasing the restricted handguns; they then sold the handguns at a large profit to unqualified buyers through licensed dealers, prosecutors said. 

COMMENTS:
What’s the problem?  The Fast and Furious gun scandal involving then highest levels of Federal government sets the standard, doesn’t it?  Or does it?  What's fair for one is fair for all, right?  Make up your mind and vote accordingly in November. 

TODAY’S QUERIES & ANSWERS:
Q. George Zimmerman’s bond has been rescinded on the basis that he lied to authorities about his financial affairs.  The only discrepancy seems to be that he did not claim a $135,000 defense fund established b y well-wishers.  He says he didn’t know what parameters were attached to the fund, so he didn’t disclose it.  What gives?  (Martina ~ Flagstaff, AZ)
A. The Judge got pounded by left-wing liberals who were ticked off that Zimmerman was out on bail.  He seized upon the opportunity to put Zimmerman back behind bars, although emerging changes of testimony point more and more toward Zimmerman's innocence.  This story is not about justice, it is about politics. 

Q. True to his historical past, Obama accepted no blame for the crappy jobs report out yesterday; he blamed Congress.  What role does Congress actually play in this scenario?  (Kylie ~ Oregon City, OR)
A. The House has passed several legislations aimed at creating jobs.  The Senate has flatly refused to discuss any of them.  It is a given that, if any meaningful legislation passed Congress, Obama would veto it.  The proposed jobs creation bills have all involved tax incentives for hiring and removing uncertainties, such as ObamaCare and FY2013 taxes from the equation.  For Obama to blame Congress, you must accept the fable that no effort has been made.  You must also remember that jobs are really created in the private sector as opposed to being created by government.  In other words, he is full of bullshit, pardon my Greek. 

Q. It is absolutely terrible to hear that workers at the 9/11 “ground zero” site are being denied healthcare or are being put through a ration of dung in order to get help.  What is wrong with our government?  (DeWitt ~ Fresno, CA)
A. There’s a $4.3 billion fund there to help these folks.  So far, none of the money has been disbursed, as claimants struggle to prove their presence at the toxic site in the days and weeks following the attacks, which released a toxic stew of deadly chemicals.  Get used to it; this is the precursor to what life will be like under ObamaCare. The wall of bureaucracy trumps the right to life. 

TODAY’S QUOTE:
"Good intentions will always be pleaded for every assumption of authority. It is hardly too strong to say that the Constitution was made to guard the people against the dangers of good intentions. There are men in all ages who mean to govern well, but they mean to govern. They promise to be good masters, but they mean to be masters." ~ Daniel Webster
