But of course. It’s all Bush’s fault. Smacks forehead.
It is past time for this administration to be put in prison.
.
Obama said as much today in his presser. Same with Solyndra. How at least one member of the press didn’t groan or burst out laughing shows how in the tank those idiots still are for Barry.
The one newsworthy moment is when Barry backed up Holder on Fast and Furious. An hour later, new data emerges showing Holder was extensively briefed on the program multiple times in 2010.
if he did put him in jail too
He armed the enemies of America and then shut down border controls so they could march in. This is treason.
No one in the Bush administration lied to a Congressional commitee regarding the project.
When leftists start to get spotlighted, they “muddy the water” so that their deeds can’t be seen as well.
That was the plan. I won't call it a good plan, but their intentions were at least honest. They also figured out that it wasn't working and that the gun runners were defeating their safe guards so they shut it down. Obama did this with the intent to get the weapons in the hands of Narco-Terrorist with the expectation that they would do something horrific with them so he could justify gun control.
We need to start pressuring congress to bring Holder and the rest of these perps to justice. Prison time is in order for those that are found guilty.
It's also beginning to look like Obama is in on this as well just as most of us suspect.
Yep. It is wrong no matter who did it.
Well I am surprised they did not make hay of this while Bush was in office seems weird to me considering all the BDS going on while Bush was in office.
I think you’ve summed up the difference very nicely.
Why would they complain? It was a routine part of ATF gun control (in the sense of trying to keep sophisticated or even good-quality weapons out of the hands of criminal gangs or terrorists) and they never let the guns actually get to Mexico or really change hands. They targeted a couple of fly-by-night gun suppliers who were known for selling quantities of mysteriously acquired guns to known criminal elements, tracked them and then arrested them when the deal closed.
Holder’s “operation” was nothing like that.
But Bush didn't do it, so the point is entirely moot, and a diversion from the blood-red-guilt of Barack Obama.
Tracking devices were used, but were somewhat defective due to the way they were installed in the stocks, and the short life of the batteries. The smuggles were tracked by plane, and they figured out how long the planes could stay aloft without refueling. They drove around in 4 hour loops, and when the planes headed back to refuel, the bad guys dashed over the Border. When it was realized that the operation had been compromised, it was shut down.
Quite a bit different than Ovomit’s ops, eh?
Well Bush did a lot of things and it cost the republicans the 2008 election. If Obama did all the same things that Bush did, why would he expect to be re-elected in 2012? History has a strange way of repeating itself.

Bush did do it, but terminated it as it was failing.
So, ...round up everyone who has ever had anything to do with arming Mexican drug lords, and throw them all in prison, real prison, not that resort crap for rich and famous politicians. If ATFE and whatever it is called now doesn’t have anything better to do than aid in smuggling guns to gangland scum, it is time to cut it down in size. There are way too many people from the White House on down with too much time on their hands, and not enough brains in their heads. We need smaller government.
