BP Agent Brian Terry was not the only Federal agent killed by guns allowed to walk by the ATF-DoJ.
ICE Agent Jaime Zapata and his partner, Victor Avila, were ambushed at a fake roadblock in Mexico. Were they set up? If so by whom?

The House Oversight Committee has just passed a Resolution holding Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt for not releasing Fast and Furious documents.
The contempt charge now goes to the entire House for a vote on holding Holder in contempt before it is sent to prosecution.
The committee even passed an amendment with many reasons why Obama's executive privilege is not valid
The Committee hearing was very interesting. The Democrats, like Reps Towns and Rep Norton, tried to say that the Committee should give more time to Eric Holder because Holder is willing to work with the committee to release some documents.
The Committee Chairman, Rep Issa, made clear that the Committee had given plenty of time to Holder and has been very lenient and even had staff stay up all night waiting for the documents. Issa said that no one is above the law.
The Committee meeting was very long and there were many arguments back and forth. Below are some of the highlights from the meeting: Congressman Chaffets quotes President Obama from when Obama first got into office about transparency. Chaffets quoted Obama from when Obama said that his administration would be completely transparent and would allow freedom of information requests even when the information requested might be embarrassing.
Chaffets said we have thousands of guns given to drug cartels. We have hundreds of people dead across the border. We have a US Border Patrol Agent dead.

Apparently, a year and a half of stonewalling wasn't enough! Good on Issa!!!!!
The contempt resolution now goes to the full House who will also vote for the contempt of Congress citation against Attorney General Holder. But then what happens? It goes to the Department of Justice to prosecute! Does anyone really think his own department will prosecute him??? I don’t.
OK, they hold Eric Holder in contempt — THEN WHAT ???
Can they force Eric Holder to LEAVE by doing that? Or is it just another thing similar to the CENSURE of Charlie Rangel — which is to say — they say “You’ve been a bad boy” and then he continues to stay on?
WHAT CONSEQUENCES ARE THERE?
I want Holder OUT -— That’s the bottom line.
Can Holding him in contempt of Congress do it?
The poster doesn’t give a damn.
There are ads and a “donate” button on the blog.
Don’t you know you need to PAY this buttmunch for re-writing a news story he happened across?
Even if the “re-writing” is of poor quality?
ICE Agent Jaime Zapata and his partner, Victor Avila, were ambushed at a fake roadblock in Mexico. Were they set up? If so by whom?
Well, they grew some little balls?
“And to feed the blatant self-promotion “
How am I doing that?
lol...even in the midst of chaos in DC, blog pimps are discovered and routed with reckless abandon!
The OWNER of this site cares. He has to pay the bills. Whether you care or not means nothing.
There have not been any good Democrats in Congress for years. Nor decent Democrats.
Just what the hell does your headline mean...are you too FReaking stoopid to read your own post??
Did you click on the blog?
If not, you defend his having multiple log-ins promoting the blog.
This puke is just as bad as an identity thief, pretending to recommend his own lame-assed stolen plagiarism.
You say you come here for news. Outstanding.
What you're getting from this puke is stolen news you could have already read or heard.
It's a very common blogger ploy, as well as having multiple screen-names
promoting the blog and hoping that you click on it. True story.
It's worse than bath salts or zombies. It's blogpimping.
Even if it did, how could Holder possibly be convicted now? All he has to do is say that he was not allowed to hand over the remaining documents because his boss claimed Executive Privilege and would not let him to turn them over.

banned. multriple accounts are not allowed.
multriple = he had three accounts going.
No ‘was’ about it. Did you watch today’s hearing? That Spear (?) gal & a couple of the others came right out & said it today. (Must be that “transparency” we keep hearing about. Or they’re just blatant.)
Well, hell.. wasn't I just sayin?
Only one account allowed per user.
If this type of OP is so bad Jim or mods should pull the thread. I’ll watch if they do.
