"Democratic members of the House Oversight Committee forget their pledge to the Terry family to “not rest” until they get to the bottom of how our own government could be so incredibly stupid"

So they get to the bottom of it by voting AGAINST contempt.

Lies, lies and more lies

Oh my my - it is bad. obama knows it. I guess he hopes to delay until November...

Yesterday President Barack Obama invoked executive privilege to prevent a House committee investigating the so-called Fast and Furious gunrunning scandal from acquiring subpoenaed documents from Justice — a move that comes eight months after the committee’s demand for information in the case.

And on this, the 40th anniversary of the Watergate break-in, it brings to mind the catch-phrase of that era — what did the president know and when did he know it.

The program wasn’t inept..the cover up was inept. The program was designed to cause additional restrictions of fire arm sales in the US by flooding Mexico with weapons.
The result was two US Agents dying and hundreds of Mexican’s killed or wounded. Judging by the statements of Obama, Hillary and Holder..they all expected this program to result in evidence the US was the source of most of the weapons in Mexico..they all knew what it was about.

Yes, a man is dead and serious laws were broken... those things on their own are bad enough...

But this is the point that it seems is ignored by all most of the time: This group of degenerates were attempting to fabricate data in an effort to deprive citizens of their rights... why is this not at the top of the headlines when we hear Fast and Furious? Why are people not outraged by this?

These bastards need to be in prison, not embarrassed politically, not held in contempt, but thrown in jail for treasonous behavior, behaving contrary to constitutional law and outright abuse of authority.

2 dead Federal agents.

300 dead Mexican citizens, police officers and Federale agents.

State-sponsored terrorism.

It was not “incredibly stupid” as the story reports, it was an agenda, one that would track and report cartel murders with our ATF weapons, in order to create a false and biased narrative for media to hit gun rights.

300 Mexicans died for that ATF agenda. Just to advance opposition to gun rights.

Brian Terry was collateral damage.

This ranks right up there with Obama’s reported obsession with drone strikes on foreign soil and drone surveillance at home. Whatever it takes to make a score for tyranny.

i don’t buy the profferred thoery about why this happenned. it seems far more likely that someone in the drug cartels bought someone in justice, and arranged for them to allow that cartel assecc to american guns.

someone high up.

Corruption makes more sense than the gun control argument.
