Interesting to see a fairly major U.S. media source give an account of the Fast and Furious scandal that does not give cover to the Obama administration.

Uncle Scam gives guns to Mexican drug cartels and Christian slaughtering Al-CIA-duh terrorists for free and then constantly schemes to deny US citizens the right to keep and bear arms. IF the US were under foreign occupation would we be able to tell the difference?

Obenshains position against gun-safety legislation was standard GOP fare but it reflected a state and a voter mind-set that no longer exist. Almost all Virginians support sensible gun-safety legislation..............The swing vote began to shift dramatically in our favor at the end. When the ballots were counted in Northern Virginia, Herring not only beat Obenshain there by more than 100,000 votes, but he also increased the total Democratic vote in Northern Virginia for attorney general by more than 124,000 since the last election. A post-election survey of voters in Northern Virginia by the Global Strategy Group indicated that 57 percent of those who voted for Herring in Northern Virginia believe gun issues had a major impact on the way they voted.
Support for gun control helped a candidate win in Virginia

I still think this was to boost the numbers of “legally sold guns” used in US and Mexican crimes as a way to promote gun control. The target was the 2nd amendment, not the drug cartels.

Of course it was. The plan was to find guns originating in the US at murder scenes and then use them as an excuse to tighten up gun laws here.

In September 2009 . . the investigation into the operation is ongoing Why have no heads rolled after 4 years?
To: Dalberg-Acton; All
Why have no heads rolled after 4 years?
Several reasons.
1. The Democrats have no shame or ethics. Clinton never resigned. Nixon did.
2. The Democrats controlled the House, Senate, Presidency, and MSM until 2011. They still control the Senate, Presidency, and MSM.
3. The Democrats in the House have done everything they can to stop the investigation and to claim that it is all “political”.
