Blogger Vanderboegh reports 'game changer' DOJ whistleblowers have come forward
Gun Rights Examiner ^ | 13 June, 2012 | David Codrea

Posted on 06/13/2012 6:02:46 PM PDT by marktwain

Sources described as "previously highly credible" and "close to the Gunwalker investigation" are claiming "one and perhaps two sources within the Department of Justice headquarters...have approached the Issa Committee seeking whistleblower status," Mike Vanderboegh of Sipsey Street Irregulars blog is reporting this afternoon in an exclusive story.

"One source, who reported that there were at least two of Eric Holder's subordinates who 'came in from the cold,' characterized them as 'high-level" DOJ employees 'with knowledge of Eric Holder's actions before and after" the 4 February 2011 DOJ letter denying that the DOJ and its subordinate agencies knew about "gunwalking," Vanderboegh writes, noting one source said the whistleblowers bring with them "the keys to the kingdom."

Calling the development "surprising," Vanderboegh further notes it "has re-energized the investigation staff,which was widely rumored to be floundering after the reluctance, not to say opposition, of the GOP leadership became known some months ago."

Was it "unexpected?"

Anyone opposing the DC machine get’s immediately Clintonized.

Look at what happened to Palin, Herman Cain, and a host of others. If you are not part of the machine, then your past goes under a microscope until you either leave or are destroyed.

WTH! Only 31 posts? Are people not buying the source? Not paying attention? Don’t care?

Number of replies is not a reliable measure of how seriously a thread or an issue is taken by the FR population. Consider that the cheeseburger prostitute thread now has more than 2,000 replies.

Thanks, hm..this may be the beginning of the end. I didn’t have a chance to watch Holder in front of Congress - but he may not be sleeping too well right now.

Between this and the classified leaks coming from NSA it’s hard to tell what will bring down this administration to a level where the fools who voted it into office will grasp enough to vote it out.

Remember when each thread showed how many hits it got? I don’t know why JimRob took that away unless they aren’t getting near as many hits as they used to.

Holder's days are numbered. The buss diesel engine has been started. Holder smells the acidic fumes from not to afar. He realizes he is not so cute and clever at this point.
And he wonders when he will get a phone call from perhaps Jarret to stop by the White House for a little talk.

I think it is connected to the defective server that needs to be replaced. They tried to start up the view counter a couple times since it crashed and it either didn't work or it caused other problems.
