of the patriot act in 1996 snuck in the nra's language establishing that the head of the atf would henceforth be subject to senate confirmation, which it never had been before. since that happened, by design we have never had anybody running the atf. we've never had a permanent head of the agency. because the nra doesn't want anybody running the agency. because remember, jackbooted thugs. remember waco. that is why this federal law enforcement agency has fewer agents than it had when i was born, which is very nearly 40 years ago now. that is why its budget is minuscule, even though we've got 300 million guns in this country, and this is the federal agency responsible for regulating them and making sure that gun owners are following the rules. that's why this is subject -- why the atf is subject to random restrictions like not being allowed to inspect a firearms
