ARTICLE SNIPPETS from this link in post no. 1:
http://www.cnsnews.com/public/content/article.aspx?RsrcID=39345
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Found in the questionnaires Miscellaneous section, question 59 reads, 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.
ARTICLE SNIPPET: “Although its not clear that gun ownership would disqualify a job applicant, ISRA says question 59 shows the Obama teams distaste for firearm owners.”

Smokers, sodomites, Marxist, baby-killers and all other creeps may apply. (Not that smokers are in any way criminals, creeps, or at all at the levels of the rest of those mentioned, but they do smell bad.)
Smokers have rights too! No FReeper would lump smokers in the same group as sodomites, Marxists, or baby killers. Are you a Conservative? You sound like someone with extreme liberal tendencies.
And there are brands manufactured that do not leave the smell of smoke on one's self or their clothing. What other groups do you target because of personal petty issues?

I doubt this report. It makes little pragmatic sense. Firearms owners, especially those who have developed a level of skill tend to be sharp in many respects, have focus and health, and have a degree of situational awareness, and tend to be cool in a crisis. They are likely to be among the better employees.

You make assumptions, huh? Just because I defend a smoker's right to choose whether or not to smoke does NOT imply that I am a smoker. I am not. If you weren't a n00b maybe you would have read enough threads on Free Republic to know that Conservatives are not in favor of Nanny States. And you sound like a nanny. Smokers have the same rights as non-smokers.
I also noted that there are cigarettes manufactured which do not impart the aroma of smoke on oneself or nearby items. BTW, there's a wealth of knowledge out there if you care to do some research before you "speak" online.

“If you weren’t a n00b “
What are you 12?? “n00b”? Oooooh, aren’t you a savvy web user!
“Smokers have the same rights as non-smokers.”
Sure, and they have the same responsibilities, too, something they fail to understand. You don’t have the right to pollute the air other people need to breath.

Hedley Lamarr: Qualifications?
Applicant: Rape, murder, arson, and rape.
Hedley Lamarr: You said rape twice.
Applicant: I like rape.
Of course, Obama is no Sheriff Bart.

You dont have the right to pollute the air other people need to breath.
And YOU don't have the right to make any choice for other individuals! No matter who your ego tells you that you are.
What are you 12?? n00b? Oooooh, arent you a savvy web user!

This nation was founded on individual rights. Whether it’s the right to own a gun or choose one’s habits. If you don’t like the smell, you’re free to go elsewhere. Oh ... And derisive name calling has no place on this forum.

Is this his perogative? Or is this the same thing that AG’s office got in trouble for when they asked who prospective employees who they voted for?
This happened this summer and Bush, of course, got rained on by the press for it.

Smokers stink.
So do people who eat garlic and onions or wear certain perfumes and colognes. Do you go around stating they 'stink' online also? This thread is about Obama's screening criteria and background checks, and the potential elimination of applicants based upon gun ownership. What do smokers or your anti-smoker opinion have to do with it?

You’re the one who brought it up. Not me. I’m just agreeing with another poster. I guess you are now agreeing that they do stink.
