Comrade 0bama cannot have even a hint of scandal in his run to destroy America
BTTT.
Agree. This organization has been a loose cannon going back at least to the Branch Davidian and Ruby Ridge massacres. Disband them and move their oversight responsibilities to the FBI, sans any previous ATF personnel. Let’em go to work for BlackWater over in the Middle East or Africa. They'll get all the action they want over there....

All we need are some Congress people who can find the courage to do this. THIS IS DOABLE!!!!
If not now, when? If ever there were a rogue agency that needed to be SERIOUSLY scaled back, this is it.
Why would LIEberman want to go after the ATF? Operation Gunwalker was designed from the beginning to create propaganda to be used to disarm American citizens and this is an outcome LIEberman wants to happen.
“Gottlieb reminds the senator that ATF has recently shuffled its entire Phoenix management team, moving the two top agents who oversaw Fast-and-Furious to ATF headquarters in Washington, D.C., where one is now cooperating with investigations launched by Sen. Charles Grassley and Rep. Darrell Issa.”
I bet those two top agents are getting promoted!
When a federal agency recklessly, willfully and with forethought breaks federal laws, the entire system is broken and cannot be trusted. How much more of this do we need to see and hear before we decide to scrap it? ATF sells tens of thousands of guns to criminals. SEC fails to investigate wholesale fraud in the markets and allows a trillion dollar financial collapse to occur. $2 million dollar lottery winner collects food stamps. Social security will break us. And on and on and on.
These issues and more should be the focus of the 2012 campaign. I expect Ron Paul to hammer these issues. On top of all this incompetence, we want to create more agencies to oversee even more aspects of our lives such as health care? We are masochists to do this to ourselves... It has to be rolled back.
