Obama: Americans “Are Root Cause of Violence That’s Been Happening Here in Mexico”
Cybercast News Service ^ | May 3, 2013 | Fred Lucas

President Barack Obama, speaking in Mexico City on Friday, said the United States is responsible for much of the crime and violence in Mexico because of the demand for drugs and the illegal smuggling of guns across the southern border. …

Obama acknowledged the illegal smuggling of guns into Mexico by American criminals, but did not mention the Justice Department’s Operation Fast and Furious that allowed the flow of about 2,000 U.S. guns to Mexican drug trafficking organizations. Fast and Furious began in the fall of 2009 and was halted in December 2010 after two of the weapons from the DOJ gun walking program were found at the murder scene of Border Patrol agent Brian Terry. …

Google/Bing check showed a ton of articles on this “90 percent” myth yet again.

They stopped using that early during the first term, because there wasn't any proof... That's what F&F was for. To gin up the proof. No better way to prove that US guns are used by the cartels in Mexican crime than for the US government to run US guns TO the cartels in Mexico... They just didn't realize there would be a few "whistle blowers" who couldn't let them get away with it.

Of course, the Ministry of Propaganda (us media) helped to bury the story. Can't let anything that might hurt the Obama regime get legs... I've got a feeling we're going to be seeing the same thing on Benghazi.

Might be accurate but paying attention to Rasmussen seems silly.

He is the first president to go to a foreign country and critisize the USA to my recollection. A real traitor. When I see a car with a BO bumper sticker,I think ENEMY of everything this nation has stood for and the sacrifices that people have made.

Obama is a member of a paramilitary cult, disguised as a religion.

As such, he represents Satan, just as this cult of his embraces death and destruction.

"Convert of be killed!" That's a cult!

threw the whole country under the bus. not surprising, but still minor amazement that the depths this scumbag will sink to in order to always shift the blame away from his highness.

I took my wife to an Outback in Delray Beach last night for her birthday. We were seated in a booth right next to a family that was also celebrating a birthday. The guy who I assume was the patriarch was wearing one of those stiff, expensive baseball caps embroidered on the blackstrap was “Obama” and on the front and side was more Obama praise. It was all I could do to keep my steamed lobster tail down.

Word on the street is that O'Buttboy prefers his hotdog in buns, if you catch my drift...

An "internet source," reportedly closely linked to O'Bunghole's initial run for his Illinois State Senate seat, is quoted as having reported that he observed the candidate on numerous occasions having fun by walking into a MacDOnald's and placing his order saying: "I'll have a coffee with cream and four sugars... hold the pickle," and then doubling over in gales of hysterical, plainly effeminate giggling.

What a piggy man he is. Well, that's what I heard...

Did anyone happen to catch his massive self-contradiction?

On the one hand, the drug problem in America is because of Americans using drugs, and this has caused the problem of the drug cartels in Mexico.

But then he turns around and says that the gun violence in Mexico is the fault of Americans and America’s guns.

According to the ‘logic’ of his first argument, the gun problem in Mexico is caused by Mexicans and their desire for guns and gun-related violence.

Here’s a new definition —

Logic: Cause of cramps in the exercise of a liberal mind.

“they” will never ever ever ever find anything bad about their homeboy.
First of all, they don’t pay attention enough to care, secondly the media will never say it loud enough for them to hear.
...and if we say it, well we’re just racist.

Pretty hypocritical talk for the man behind Fast and Furious. FUBO!

You over look the fact he uttered those words in Mexico. That means that since he was out of the country,they don’t count

” Obama acknowledged the illegal smuggling of guns into Mexico by American criminals”

Note he didn’t say “kenyan criminals”
