All gun owners would be "hard core NRA types" if they knew what was good for them!

I dont think those questions are even legal . How can you ask someone to forfeit their constitutional rights just to get a job with him.I think that is vary illegal and immorally wrong.I wish someone hade the balls to confront this douchebag Obama about it.

The actual question:

Do you or any members of your immediate family own a gun? If so, provide complete ownership and registration information. Has the registration ever lapsed? Please also describe how and by whom it is used and whether it has been the cause of any personal injuries or property damage.

Sounds like they are vetting to see if anyone has made a mistake that can contradict their anti-gun legislation in the future. Ie. An Obama administration member failing to keep an up to date registration would kind of be embarrassing if they were trying to advocating stricter gun registration requirements.

I don't have time to read a bunch of links, but if this is about the questionnaires asking his people if they own guns, you should probably be aware that every President has done that. There is all kinds of "disclosure" stuff they get asked about. It isn't necessarily sinister.

I don't think it's if they own one so much as if they've fucked up with one, which may get leaked to the media.

Does this mean that no gun owning Oregonian could work for him? We don't have any gun registration that I know of.
