Some people have said that the government is beating a dead horse trying to defend themselves against the increasing accumulation of charges against the BATFE, DoJ and now Dept. of State in what is now too many gun running scandals to keep track of.
Let me therefore predict the outcome (credit to

Quote:
The tribal wisdom of the Dakota Indians, passed down from generation to generation, says "When you discover that you are riding a dead horse, the best strategy is to dismount."
The Federal government employs more advanced strategies:
1. Buying a stronger whip.
2. Changing riders.
3. Appointing a committee to study the horse.
4. Arranging to visit other countries to see how other cultures ride
horses.
5. Lowering the standards so that dead horses can be included.
6. Reclassifying the dead horse as living impaired.
7. Hiring outside contractors to ride the dead horse.
8. Harnessing several dead horses together to increase speed.
9. Providing additional funding and/or training to increase dead horse's performance.
10. Doing a productivity study to see if lighter riders would improve
the dead horse's performance.
11. Declaring that as the dead horse does not have to be fed, it is less
costly, carries lower overhead and therefore contributes substantially more to the bottom line of the economy than live horses.
12. Rewriting the expected performance requirements for all horses.
And my personal favorite...........
13. Promoting the dead horse to a supervisory position.

And to that let me add... Running for Congress or President on the Dead Horse.
