4. WTF? How was he director of both the FBI and ATF?

The man can't handle either as he wants to work out of Vegas so he can stay on his club soccer team.

5. These bragadocious jackals were all swagger about cutting gubmint and being a BDE boss.

Now they're tripping over their own dicks, while destroying treasured programs and institutions.

I'm hoping for a free and fair congressional* election.
