Obviously, “Melson was stupid and did not smart enough to run an intelligent program” is not going to work for the DOJ.
Somebody higher up (and there are only 3 people above Melson, including Holder and Obama) manipulated this situation.
OTOH, he’s smart enough to realize he hasn’t a SAG card and doesn’t want to be the “fall guy” in the President Obama/Holder soaper either. I’m sure his lawyer advised his “overhead cover” was due to expire in September. Melson is also “smart enough” to get his licks in first. Getting his testimony/evidence on record during a holiday weekend, when the OA’s bureaucratic stooges were partying was the master stroke of an experienced career bureaucrat.
I agree the DOJ, FBI and DHS, (among others) are in the deep end. Were this a GOP administration there’d be a real s**t storm in the lame-stream media. Instead we’re seeing almost nothing from the henhouse. (nobody here but us chickens)
BTW, Mssrs Dave Codrea and Mike Vanderbreogh have broken yet another story line on OFF. They report a proven source alleges a lot of arms were moved through FL to a Central American nation destined for the drug cartel.
