Sure, that's why.

Hickenloper says the shutdown is deterring him from throwing his hat in the ring to become Dear Leader in 2016.   The recalls had nothing to do with it.  Nothing at all.

Some days even my lucky rocketship underpants won't help.


Bring me my Broadsword and a clear understanding.
Get up to the roundhouse on the cliff-top standing.
Take women and children and bed them down.
Bless with a hard heart those that stand with me.
Bless the women and children who firm our hands.
Put our backs to the north wind.
Hold fast by the river.
Sweet memories to drive us on,
for the motherland.

I'm running as a write in.  I figger if all my facebook friends and gun board people all shared my name as a write in from now till Nov. 2016 I'm a cinch.  The innertube tells me if you share this with 20 people and those 20 share with 20 etc etc, I will reach everyone in America  including the dead to write me in.

Once elected, I'll be taking resume's for cushy jobs and cabinet positions.

I'm not running because I'm not a megalomaniac psychopath.

OOO! OOO!! Since no one has spoken up, I'd like the DOE job.

And honestly, I don't care which DOE, I'll wreak havoc in whichever one as I dismantle it.

I wish the Ring had never come to me. I wish none of this had happened.

So do all who live to see such times. But that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us. There are other forces at work in this world, Frodo, besides the will of evil. Bilbo was meant to find the Ring. In which case, you also were meant to have it. And that is an encouraging thought

I'll run the ATF, but you're going to have to have my back when I fire tons of agents for not meeting basic fed.gov LE standards, and hiring tons of NFA processors, and FFL/SOT license processors.

Wouldn't it be cheaper to buy a bunch of monkeys and give them all "APPROVED" stamps?.....

Done.  However as director, I can't/won't pay you. However, you have full access to play with anything in the ATF's reference firearms library as long as you clean it when done.

You're already fired.

Proper duty is to ignore all those stupid gun laws, therefore reducing the number of ATF employees to one.
