Remember that cop who shot himself in the foot?
There was a new development this week in the historic incident of DEA agent Lee Paige, who accidentally shot himself in the foot during a youth presentation in 2004.
Paige filed a federal lawsuit against the U.S. government, complaining that the DEA leaked the video, which he states appeared on such familiar shows as the Jay Leno Show, a Current Affair, and Jimmy Kimbel (kimmel) Live.
Paige claims that the embarrassment and publicity has ruined his career as both public speaker and undercover officer which linguists agree is the most oxymoronic combination of terms since “gay Republicans.”
It must have been difficult for Paige to watch his reputation to America’s youth sink from “Respected Federal Agent” to “nothing but a big fat doo-doo-head. But a judge threw out the case this week, so Paige’s attempt to gain financial compensation for the embarrassment has only served to remind us of the incident so he could face more embarrassment as we note that he has once again shot himself in the foot.

This big clown shot himself in public, in front of dozens of kids and adults and then cried about it…. I really like the fact how he pointed out how he was the one qualified to use the weapon. Running around telling everyone how he is a big bad armed agent and then suing because he cannot work undercover….. unbelievable.
