Testifying before a judge in a bail hearing, the lead FBI invertigator draws a blank when it comes to facts about the so-called "Hutaree militia":
An FBI agent who led the investigation of nine Michigan militia members charged with trying to launch war against the federal government couldn't recall many details of the two-year probe yesterday during questioning by defense lawyers.
Even the judge who must decide whether to release the nine until trial was puzzled.
"I share the frustrations of the defense team … that she doesn't know anything," U.S. District Judge Victoria Roberts said after agent Leslie Larsen confessed she hadn't reviewed her notes recently and couldn't remember specific details of the case.

What a joke. Sounds like a case of the FBI being told to arrest some white guys who own guns. Anyone will do.
Another ObamaNation scam.

“... agent Leslie Larsen confessed she hadn’t reviewed her notes recently and couldn’t remember specific details of the case.”
What hogwash. I don’t know of anyone going in to testify in court who doesn’t review the case.

Bingo. Just part of the overall Obama tactic of painting those who disagree with his Regime as potentially violent and something to really be "concerned" about.
Since the election has there been a great turnover?
Thugocracy in action.
Obama: Go arrest some white Christian guys with guns. Make ‘em out to be violent terrorists.
FBI: Heil Obama! Ja!
Scary.
I don’t know, but Robert Mueller was last seen on the back of a milk carton.
I thought it was pretty strange that the agent “couldn’t remember” or “hadn’t reviewed” the information. I have a family member who is a police detective, and she reviews and prepares for everything down to the most minute detail when she has to go to a hearing.
So I’d say they don’t really have anything and this agent was keeping herself out of a perjury charge.
Don’t get me wrong: the Huttarees sound like nuts with a capital N and I don’t think I’d like to know them, and I’m sure the feeling would be mutual. But being a nut is not illegal (yet), and it doesn’t sound as if they have really done anything or were even in the process of doing anything. I think if they had been, any scrap of evidence would have been paraded by the FBI.
Didn’t moose-limbs originally complain about these people?
Well 0bama is just obeying orders from his masters.
The FBI reminds me of the blind pig that every once in a while is able to snuffle up an acorn.
The Agent-in-Charge for the arest of the Huartee Militia was Andrew Arena. I am watching with interest to see if his undercover agent is a Muslim who infiltrated the Christian Militia. It is possible if you look at Agent Arena’s reputation.
Note his quote in FBI release:
http://detroit.fbi.gov/dojpressrel/pressrel10/de032910.htm
Federal Bureau of Investigation -Detroit
“Nine Members of a Militia Group Charged with Seditious Conspiracy and Related Offenses”
“.. Andrew Arena, FBI Special Agent in Charge, said, “This is an example of radical and extremist fringe groups which can be found throughout our society. The FBI takes such extremist groups seriously, especially those who would target innocent citizens and the law enforcement officers who protect the citizens of the United States...”

Here is a length article about Agent Arena’s history:

By Debbie Schlussel
“By the way, Andrew “Andy” Arena has a history of brown stuff at the end of his nose when it comes to Islamists. Wearing brown nose make-up for Muslims was his job at the FBI in New York. “

Hope my suspicions are wrong, but this still does not pass the smell test.
When you have a trial and an agent testifies and appears to have no clue what is going on and the judge chimes in - something is wrong here.
I guess Obama was hoping for another Ruby Ridge or Waco. Also reminds me of Reno and other libs engaging in witch hunts at day care facilities.
I guess they all want to work at the SEC so they can surf the net all day looking for porn.
Yeah really - go find the birth certificate you incompetents.
The alarm bells are going off, something is definately wrong.
