In yet another “unprecedented” (one of Barack Obama’s favorite terms) landmark, a Special Assistant to the President and House Legislative Affairs Liaison has been charged with first- and second-degree assault charges, as well as one count of reckless endangerment for shooting at her boyfriend. The White House staffer, Barvetta Singletary, reportedly:

confronted her boyfriend, a Capitol Hill police officer, about another woman he was seeing before grabbing his two cellphones and his .40 caliber Glock 23 service weapon, NBC reported.

When the officer refused to give Singletary his cellphone passwords, she took the gun and pointed it at him, saying: 'You taught me how to use this. Don't think I won't use it,' according to the arrest warrant.

Police said she pointed the duty weapon in his direction and fired one round.

The incident unfolded on Friday when Singletary summoned her boyfriend, who has not been identified, via text, asking him to come to her home in Upper Marlboro, Maryland for sex, according to charging documents.

“asking him to come to her home in Upper Marlboro, Maryland for sex,”

His getting shot at might have been the better outcome.

I’ve got news for you. Women like her infest the federal government by the tens of thousands, with college degrees not worth the paper they’re written on, and a crushing lack of critical thinking skills.

FUBAR:

Daniel Greenfield at FrontPageMag: Obama Aide Who Played Key Role in Crafting ObamaCare Tries to Shoot Boyfriend

Now we know why ObamaCare is so great. A psycho played an integral role in it. Barvetta Singletary, 37, who is a special assistant to Mr. Obama also holds the title of House legislative liaison.

Singletary, daughter of Councilwoman W. Jeanie Brown-Burrows, started out as a policy director for the Congressional Black Caucus' James Clyburn before moving on to becoming Special Assistant to the President.

She also, "played an integral role in crafting the landmark healthcare law, the Patient Protection and Affordable Care Act and Health Education Reconciliation Act."

If 0bama had a daughter...

That's the problem in a nutshell.

ODungo has w-a-a-a-a-y too many sons and daughters in his administration and bureaucracy...

...the first American African administration in U.S. history.

That it's also communist is simply an added enhancement.

Don't forget, taxpayer-funded health care, too!
