Once again we see evidence of the idiocy and evil of TV. Can we just cut these folks off at the knees and stop funding them. Is that really too much to ask?

Amazing. Gillespie doesn’t know a whole lot more than they do. And his argument was as full of commissions as omissions. Someone ought to send him Andrew McCarthy’s 5-page NR article (posted on FR today) or at least refer him to Holder’s two (possibly three) “misstatements” to Congress. Good grief, Roger Clemens almost got 5 yrs. for “misstating” to Congress, and the investigation of his case didn’t involve directly traceable deaths! Not to mention that the Executive Privilege invoked by the Prez would, other than in the Obama world of Oz, imply if not prove that Obama not only knew about F&F, but long before any date he’s “erroneously” cited.

Maher and Maddow’s (false)talking point: Bush did it! They need a new lie, and the race card won't cut it this time. This is a perfect opportunity for the RINOs to show some guts in an election year. I pray they won't completely blow it.

Some Dem congressional staffer slipped Maddow some talking points and she smarmingly read them to her audience, who in turn, posted them on DU.

They are in for a big surprise, but don't know it. Issa has meticulously laid a solid foundation and Maddow’s idiot followers are about a year behind on F&F information. Imagine their surprise.

Rush said there was a 2 YEAR SPAN between the time the Bush operation closed down and F and F started. There is NO WAY this can be blamed on Bush.

Of course not. Operation Wide Receiver ended in 2007 and Fast and Furious began in October 2009, that was in the 10th month after that lazy, lying pos’ inauguration

They probably can’t fire her because she is of a protected special class of “folks”- the gays. It would be a “hate” firing, discriminatory and homophobic.

The LGBTQetc community is so driven with trying to be accepted as normal,they don’t seem to be able to even peek out of the window once they are out of the closet.

They can’t stand to face or see normal, because it reminds them of how abnormal THEY are!...Their brains seem to be committed full time to proving us “breeders” are wrong about everything... it literally takes over their entire view of the world. What’s sad is they really DO want to be normal and get married, have kids, a house etc.But their perversion takes presidence over everything; it is the voice they choose to obey.

So, to compensate, they live in their own world complete with their own news and she is their Walter Cronkite...and no matter what we do, we will always be the enemy,always be wrong, always be a Bible thumping clinger,always be the scapegoat because they live as children and will never take responsibilty for their own actions.

I would like to see them really DO something positive for this country that has given them so much; instead, the best they can muster is making movies which are completely false about conservatives as bad people and liberals as good people, or offer up more of the same snarkiness that they never seem to run out of....why not do something good for a change?

Was it only a Democrat Assault on the 2nd Amendment? which is horrific in and of itself!
Or is Fast & Furious even worse? A Massive Payoff and Blackmail paid to the Drug Cartels??? We know how dirty Obama & Co. are and all that is hidden in Obama’s Past and Others!
Didn’t more than $ 50 Million and maybe up to $100 Million get spent on Fast & Furious? Yet only 2000 Assault Weapons changed hands! At a generous $2000 per Weapon, that only accounts for $ 4 Million of Taxpayer funds!And now we know the Agencies were ordered to stand down and no tracing or investigative expenses!! Where did the Money GO???

P.S! We know the Gun Runners PAID FOR THEIR WEAPONS WITH CASH!! so forget the $ 4 Million I wrongly stated that the American Taxpayer would normally be charged for these Weapons! If in fact FAST and FURIOUS!! was actually Legitimate and Honest!!

I'm not sure where that Wide Receiver data came from, but the total guns involved and total arrests are WAY high from all the other stories I have read.

I have read UP TO 500 guns, and as low of a number as 11 indictments.

So why do I only hear this from Rush and on FR? Can we get the facts out? They get the lies out pretty quickly.

Well, in all honesty, Gillespie could do with a bit of schooling himself. It is simply because Maddow and Maher are so dim that Gillespie comes off as knowledgeable.

Tom Blumer of PJ Media has reported about this many times and the articles have been posted here by several FReepers and myself

Hi Chick,

People around here wonder why conservatives go on these moonbat liberal shows. This why.
