Was it the Joyce Foundation and Tides? We need to know who put it in and the lobbyist (who probably wrote it during those lock out sessions.

WTH does any of those individuals have in way of subject, government, law enforcement, etc. re: our sovereignty or defending our borders?

Snowe, Specter and Collins for this in the Senate - not one Republican voted for it in the House.

I do so hope Issa is the guy I think he is. I am also impressed with Grassley. I'm actually feeling pretty positive about this....after being disappointed with so many false alarms before. Well, not false alarms, but things well worth investigating...just going away.

I don't know if you all remember that story about 1 1/2 years ago that involved the mayor of Sacramento, Mechelle's brother and the firing of Inspector General Walpin. I just KNEW that this was a very, very dirty thing that Michelle was in the middle of. It had to do with the Mayor abusing an underage girl, misappropriation of fed funds, etc. Issa, apparently didn't go after this and I was so upset. It seemed like he was going to play hard ball with the slimes in the regime.

Oh, well....I pray if this is as bad as it looks, and it looks VERY bad...Issa will put the pedal to the medal. Wouldn't that be wonderful....to catch these crooks red handed? Not just innuendo, but facts, a trial, credible witnesses....The Mexican gvt demanding extradition of the perps. I'm going to really pray to God to just help Issa be strong enough to do this.

Notice that's $40,000,000 for Southern border enforcement, $10,000,000 of which specifically for Project Gunrunner. What does $10 million pay for here? It didn't hire any new agents that I am aware of.

You're right - this does deserve it's own thread. Thanks.

Shovel Ready Projects were the graves of the victims ... killed by ... ATF guns.

You've got a great tagline in there...

But but I thought Holder said he only learned about it a few days ago (/sarc)

Lying POS. It was probably his idea, or at least his final approval, to walk the guns in the first place but is trying for plausible deniability.

April 2009—Eric Holder (in Mexico) said:

“Last week, our administration launched a major new effort to break the backs of the cartels. My department is committing 100 new ATF personnel to the Southwest border in the next 100 days to supplement our ongoing Project Gunrunner, ... DHS is making similar commitments, as Secretary Napolitano will detail.”
