More to come...
“With allegations of gun-walking operations in 10 cities in five states, the congressional reaction of a calm investigation is, if anything, subdued. As noted in a previous article, if we use Operation Fast and Furious as a baseline and assume that the other gunwalking operations were roughly as productive, the U.S. may have run between 10,000 and 20,00o guns to criminal organizations, enough weapons to outfit an entire U.S. Army infantry division.”
I think folks are missing the true intent of these guns walking into the hands of the drug cartels and possibly the marxist revolutionaries in South America. Undermining our rights to keep and bear arms in this country was only a fringe benefit to the marxist progressives in this country. The primary reason for this whole thing was to support marxist revolution in Central and South America.
Obama is arming the enemies of liberty and freedom. The left has always supported the marxists in South America and the drug cartels are the tip of the marxist spear.
If Robert Mueller doesn’t do a full John Dean, he may be sharing a prison cell with Holder.
The smoking gun will be his subversion of the FBI’s national instant background check, in order to allow felons to buy weapons under F&F. That order had to go through Mueller’s office. He is up to his neck in this.
It’s time to go John Dean, or go to prison. Make up your mind, Robert. Time is short.
I’d like to take a little space here to compliment Bob Owen’s writing. I think he is one of the better writer’s we see today, and just wanted to state my opinion on that.
To those that think I’m sleighting others whom were more involved in the topic, I’m not. They aren’t the writer Bob Owens is, but I do recognize their good work that Bob has been following up on in his well written articles.
What the hell is going on in this country?
Still refuse to read Breitbart, eh?
And why don’t our federal officials just man-up and admit when mistakes have been made?
Mistakes? You mean getting caught?
Perhaps Barky has fired all his misdirection rockets yesterday, hopefully, and this matter moves back into the spot light sometime next week.
I always said Barky was nothing more than a three card monte dealer and his political actions back that up.
.........sir/madam, I would not have a clue whether your right or not with the thrust of your post. But, with lefties of all stripes, that old adage “where there is smoke there is fire” is ALWAYS “on base”.
So, odds are your on to something. Obama admin marxists helping other of their fellow marxist fiends south of the border is just another dot out there that one day will likely be connected.
And nobody died in Watergate.

So when is Issa going to issue his “scathing report” so it can be buried and forgotten?
Long past expecting this guy to do anything of substance...
Unless he chooses to cut off his own power supply - or wait around for a DC hit man to do it for him.
What did 0b0z0 mean exactly when he told Sarah Brady that they were working on gun control “under the radar”?
Not to be argumentative, but under what jurisdiction would the charges be filed and by whom? Holder is the "DA" in DC, isn't he? Couldn't a garden variety DA in Arizona file charges against Holder et al. as accessories to murder WRT Brian Terry's death? Does Terry's role as a Federal agent change that? I just don't know.

Me too. Issa'a specialties are destroying the US Postal Service and endorsing Mitt Romney for president. Not my favorite congressman.
Mueller knows who was being targeted...
Nixon didn’t pardon Dean, Haldeman, or the others. If Obama gets past the election, he can hand out pardons to Holder, Mueller, or anyone else who might be in legal trouble over this.

Let this maxim be of advice to both of you: Never wound a king.
He knows this originated in the White House, just like anybody else who understands an unrepentant control freak like Zero. GunWalker had BIG goals: Destabilize Mexico to drive hordes of future Democrat voters north, disarm the conservative base with the UN Small Arms Treaty, arm a restive criminal underclass to take out said conservative base and consolidate socialist control forever. It's warfare, it's treason, and it's too ambitious to work. Remember however, that when this first went down, they weren't anticipating the TEA Party and losing so big in 2010. They really do believe their media cover will be sufficient to protect them.
Hence, now that this has blown up in their faces they're simply trying to ignore it while destroying every bit of evidence they can find. Their problem is that at least some of the bureaucrat paper-pushers in their departments are seeing the handwriting on the wall that they too are expendable: the pols are covering the death of one of their own.
Every Democrat is a would-be-king. To a king, anybody else is expendable, collateral damage in their righteous cause.
Issa has his work cut out for him. He has to get those documents intact by which to hang a guy like Mueller while still building that fence around Zero, Napolitano, AND Hillary. That means whoever breaks ranks and turns state's evidence at his or her own peril (see: "expendable" and "Ft. Marcy Park") knows the maxim too. He or she would need a way to gather enough to hang the lot of them without tipping his hand. That means he (or whoever else... James Steingerg???) needs time.
Meanwhile, this could go on in such a way that it blows up on schedule, in the middle of a Presidential campaign.
Saturday Round Up Ping 7! They feign in vain!
More coming.
>>It’s time to go John Dean, or go to prison. Make up your mind, Robert [Mueller]. Time is short.
Worth saying again bump.
Conflicting reports about the number of people involved, the number of guns involved and how many people had been arrested.
Suddenly Janet Napolitano personally shows up at the scene acting weird even for her. She kept a very low profile initially with no explanation of why she was here or what she was up to. Every thing was kept very hush hush. And soon a lot of other players in the investigation were acting in a highly unusual fashion.
When Napolitano finally goes public her behavior towards the Terry family was despicable and her aggressive behavior and the lack of remorse for what had happened to one of her Agents and the lack compassion towards the family he left behind was unlike anything ever seen by any Government official towards the family of a murdered law enforcement agent.
Napolitano even showed up at Agent Terry's funeral to publicly and abusively criticize the Terry family for their of criticism of the rules of engagement that forced Terry to use bean bags against drug cartel members armed with knock offs Soviet Army's mainstay battle rifle.
All of this from the head of the DHS. The mind boggles, even for Arizonans used to 8 years of Napolitano’s bully behavior
There was a air tight lid clamped on information flow about the case and then, after a bit of time had passed, trial balloons were floated by the Feds that the men in custody for the murders would not be charged and would be released due to “lack of evidence”.
As if Mexican nationals with known drug cartel membership and a history of robbing other illegals and drug runners at gunpoint, that were caught out in the middle of the Arizona desert (they were in the country illegally BTW) with Ak 47s and SKS rifles in the middle of fire fight that resulted in the murder of a US Border Patrol Agent was not sufficient evidence to hold them in jail
I was stunned when I heard this and angry reaction by LEOs and the rest of Arizona to the trial balloon put a stop to plans to let these murderers go.
Dennis Burke, Napolitano's main confidant and ex Chief of Staff when she was Arizona Gov and a major player in Fast and Furious, then abused his position as US Attorney for Arizona to deny the Terry Family standing to make a formal request for information regarding Terry's murder investigation.
There is hard, direct and incontrovertable evidence that Burke denied the Terry family standing to cover up the misconduct by high level government officials, including himself, that resulted in the death of Agent Terry
It all seemed very strange at the time but it all makes perfect sense now given all the horrific details we now know.
One has to wonder what Agents Ramos and Compean think about this.
Their lives and careers were ruined and they did time in hard time in Federal prison for doing their jobs. The charge against them was for allegedly lying about their actions during a hot pursuit chase of a Mexican,drug cartel member making a run for the border to avoid being arrested for being caught red handed with a load of pot. They were accused by a known, convicted drug cartel member of much less serious conduct with no evidence other than than the highly questionable testimony of the guy they were trying to arrest.
This drug cartel member had a cozy informant relationship with the DEA and local enforcement that allowed him to smuggle drugs over the border without being arrested. Sound Familiar?
FWIW Ramos and Compean alleged actions never resulted in the death of anyone. It kind of makes one wonder if there is an untold and undiscovered Fast and Furious style back story that caused Agents Ramos and Compean to be prosecuted
