Babeu: "Mexican drug cartels. This is outrageous."
At a town hall meeting in Tucson, the local government admitted they had no idea about Operation Fast and Furious - they found out by watching the news.
"Did anybody on the police force or law enforcement know this was going on or were you kept in the dark too?"
People in Tucson want answers and on Monday night, Tea Party supporters went to a public meeting in hopes of trying to understand what went wrong in the Fast and Furious gun operation.
It started in October 2009. Federal agents from the ATF approved, allowed and assisted in selling guns to illegal Mexican drug cartels

Never thought I’d see it either, but this seems to be one scandal that’s finally getting some real legs.
It’s time for Arizona to start bringing lawsuits against the DOJ. Give Holder get a little taste of his own medicine.
I want arrests now!

Have another muffin Eric.
Getting answers from the DOJ is like trying to get blood from a turnip.
I’d like to see the HOR order up a bunch of shackles and orange jumpsuits but I’m not gonna hold my breath.
Umm...the Sheriff for Tuscon is Dipnick. Remember him?
I’d like to bid on all of the prizes in BOTH showcases, Bob.
1) Did Jared Loughner use a ‘Fast and Furious’ gun to kill U.S. District Judge John Roll and attempt to kill U.S. Congresswomen Gabrielle Giffords?
2) What did Sheriff Dipnick know about Operation Fast and Furious, was he briefed, and when did he know?
Tucson. [I always get that one wrong.]
Followed by extraditions. In addition to the BP Officer, there are at least 400 known dead Mexican citizens killed by these Obama/Holder supplied guns.
I would actually like to see Holder and Obama being sentenced by a Federal judge in Mexico over the murders of Mexican civilians due to the administration’s decisions.

I have stated this opinion of mine before, and another freeper said that Presidents (heads of state) have immunity. But I still think that extradition is justice in this case.
The operation went just the way it was supposed to.
Except, a couple of agents had a conscience and spilled the beans.
That Rancid SOS Hitlery and Obamao knew exactly what they were doing.
This should be impeachable.
I don’t think it was a drug sting - seems more a political operation against conservatives. The “Lone Wolf Trading Company’ was the name of the main store pushing these guns... Comments from an earlier reply:
Lone Wolf Trading Company?
Lone Wolf Trading Company? That’s a classic sting operation front name for law enforcement ... It’s such an obvious name - that when the operation’s done, insiders can laugh for years about how stupid crooks are... and they are... but that’s later...
Looking at the name - and only the name - I’d say the real target wasn’t Mexican drug dealers - it was the so-called ‘lone wolfs’ - the conservative boggie-man / straw man of the totalitarian left.
The ‘boggie-man type the Southern Poverty Law Center claims exists everywhere. The one they pushed during the old ‘vast right wing conspiracy’ days. “Lone Wolf” is the updated version of VRWC. Of course the totalitarian left hasn’t been able to find ONE lone wolf - NOT one right wing terrorist in the last decade or two - that’s their holy grail... So what were they suppose to do? The Totalitarian left has been saying these nutty conservatives (dangerous) are behind every tree - and THEY CAN’T COME UP WITH ONE!!!
The horror.
This program was probably designed to prime the pump - because scare stories quit working when no one can catch ONE right wing ‘lone wolf’... The totalitarian left fears losing their “suck-ups” who write for the Washington Post and New York Times. And if they can’t give them an “I told you so” piece every now and then, they will lose them. The MSM isn’t as stupid as the left things... they do catch on after ten or fifteen years...
And yeah, there’s probably a reason “Woodward and Bernstein” aren’t on this...
Getting answers from the DOJ is like trying to get blood from a turnip.
Then you quit waiting for answers and go get them yourself. You walk in and grab files, computers and anything else you think might be related to the case. OH! and you tell Holder to sit down, shut up and do not move. Isn’t that what the DOJ does when they investigate? Stop playing around with this, people are dying because of their actions.
Thanks george76.
Very perceptive analysis of the choice of Lone Wolf as a target.
It’s all about the MSM propaganda memes.
