My taxes are mostly in order, I think, but I have published some fiction in skin magazines. I think that’s what would nail me.
Or maybe it’s the severe depression I suffered fifteen years ago, after my divorce–required hospitalization.
Actually, it’s neither of those. I think my posts against religion here would disqualify me if they came out. Which they would.
What’s your disqualifying issue?
I think my rental of (and failure to return) Anal Bitches Volume 46 would come out sooner or later.
I’m virtually certain there are pictures of me taken at college campuses (one anyway), where I was clearly inhaling.
I KNOW there’s one of me standing on the roof of a popular Carbondale establishment, preparing to urinate on some of the Hallowwen/Homecoming crowd.
But I pay my taxes faithfully.
I only skimmed his autobiography.
I’m not remotely qualified.
If only I’d applied to the last administration, I coulda done a heckuva job.
I’m far too stupid
Possession of a controlled substance; to wit, marijuana.
Severe clinical depression.
Politically incorrect speech.
Gads, I dunno. Previous membership in the Camarilla and current membership in the SCA?
I did make Cs in college and failed calculus. I live with my parents and I’m almost 30. I did get arrested, once, for a bounced check for under $25 but the case was dismissed. Spent a night in jail with meth heads, but they were really nice ladies. My credit is bad.
But no tax problems, no major legal issues.
Oh, I did get prescribed Zoloft once because I told a doctor I was feeling listless and sad for no reason.
I tried watching that, but I hadn’t seen the first 45 so I was totally lost as to what was going on.
ETA- For me the biggie would probably be my attendance at fundraisers and speeches made by Gerry Adams and Martin McGuinness back before the addition of certain political groups to the US terror watchlist.
I have a history of bad financial decisions in the past (all currently resolved).
I’m Wiccan.
Gross Incompentence.
But I’m an admitted recovering addict who firmly believes that the War on Drugs is a hideous failure and anti-American. So I would never make it through the vetting process.
I’d never make it through the confirmation hearings without using the words “really fucking stupid.”
I’m a firearm owner
I’m a practicing Druid (although the Dems should have less problem with that then the Rep)
I own more guns than the rest of his cabinet put together.
NRA Life member
Drug use shouldn’t be a problem, we’ve had 3 presidents in a row that did drugs, and all (well most) of mine was decades ago.
And who’d have a hard time with this, exactly?
You?
17 years of co-habitation, and no wedding vows in sight.
Some series monogamists would have a fit over that one. Imagine living with someone
for that long, and not being married.
I inhaled.
Plus I have Foot In Mouth Disease which would invariably lead to me saying something horribly inappropriate at a horribly inappropriate time. Maybe one day there will be a cure.
I have no legal issues, sex scandals or tax issues. What would get me in trouble is my posting on this board. I’d get Reverend Wright-ed in no time.
I worked in a porn shop back in the early 80s when I was in college. Even worse, I sometimes took my then-4-year-old son there because we could’t afford day care. He was only there an hour, though – I worked 4 to midnight, and my wife would come get him at 5 p.m. But yeah, I think that pretty much disqualifies me from ever being elected or confirmed to any government post.
The absolute failure to file tax returns for years of being underemployed, to the point that I didn’t get EIC I was entitled to?
