"President Obama's Watergate" is how some critics describe the growing controversy over the "Fast and Furious" gun walking program.
House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa wants Attorney General Eric Holder to appear before his committee early next year. Issa says the hearing will focus on what Justice Department officials should have done to stop the program.

CNN, really?
CNN-Obama will never desert The Won. This is just “unbiased reporting”. Notice how they mention Holder more than The Won. Guess who’s getting set up for the underside of the bus?
Doubt it.
The investigations proceed apace “Slow and Delirious”
I’m seeing Nixon in my head.
“I am not a crook”.
Holder goes, Dumb0 goes. Holder is the only one between Dumb0 and the Chicago connection (Broadway Bank, Rezko, Blogavich, Valerie Jarrett, Alex Giannoulis, Jesse Jackson Jr., etc.)
Problem is...no one not in an airport watches CNN. NBC has not issued one word about this scandal...not one.
CBS and ABC have done a little investigating...but they believe its only a scandal for Republicans.
NPR sees it as an example of GOP baiting the black AG...racism, you know?
Look into the role of Andreas Strassmeier —a German infiltrator into the OkBomb plot —you remember, the bombing where all the ATF guys said they fell several floors in an elevator after the blast, then heroically pried the doors open (something shown by experts to be impossible).
Strassmeier, a German who came to America and pretended to be a wild-eyed nazi, was working for the FBI. But after the bombing, lo and behold he disappeared off planet Earth, in spite of having a very bigshot German Parliament dad.
Did right wing American crazies carry out the bombing? Yes..but they might have had help from UNCLE SAM.
Wait —you say the ATF/FBI wouldn’t DO THAT, right...? It’d be beneath them, right?
CNN? I thought they were bought and paid for?
First, nobody got killed at Watergate.
Second, Nixon knew nothing of the Watergate break in. The Obama Administration planned the program of supplying guns to Mexican drug gangs.
Third, The MSM spent literally thousands of man hours investigating Watergate and reported on it everyday for several years. The MSM has done nothing but cover up for the Obama Administration providing guns to Mexican drug gangs.
In a word, NO!
The media will protect Obama and Holder.
If that doesn't work they will play the race card.
If that doesn't work they will throw a scape goat to the wolves and the media will tear him (or her) apart.
Check must have bounced.
Turn it over in your mind —a year ago if someone suggested an FBI informant killed a badged Border Patrol agent trying to secure the border, would you believe it?
Nah, he’d be nuts —that crazy....
How about if some wild-eyed nut whispered the ATF smuggled 3,000 military weapons to Mexican narco-traffickers specifically to boost murder cases in Mexico —that guy would be TOTALLY NUTS, right...?
Wow...over-the-top crazy.
And if someone told you they’d imprison and then harass a BP guy for giving the arm of an illegal a firm tug, that, too, would seem IMPOSSIBLE, right?
Larry Sinclaire —the guy who claimed he fellated the Prez in the back of a limo (with him NIBBLING on the back of Larry’s neck) after the Prez smoking crack —THAT ALSO is crazy, right?
EACH ONE OF THESE THINGS IS NUTS, RIGHT....?
Where should the benefit of the doubt lie NOW...?????
Cheryl Atkinson of CBS has been on this like white’s on rice. She’s refused her editors requessts that she tone it down. She’s been cursed and hung up on by WH staffers,hi level staffers. The only guy that outdone her is the FOX guy with the French sounding name. On CNN, Blitzer has brought this up on his hour. It can’t get traction because no paper is willing to do an indepth report. And administration can weather 90 second spots a couple of times a week, even in prime time. But the notoriety of a 200 inch in depth article by three or four investigative reporters in the Times, Tribune, or The Post is too much to ignore. As long as the major dailies are invested in Obama, none of this goes anywhere. But if one paper should decide journalism and reporting are its raison d’etre, the Obama has a problem.
Could “Fast and Furious” eventually become President Obama’s Watergate? (CNN!)
Shoot, mebbe thays a thinkin the dumbass cain’t win nohow!
It would take a powerful push. The media is running interference, and the Senate and Congress are going to sit on their hands.
Watergate was merely a small-time burglary gone awry, sucking in the Nixon Administration with it. Criminal, but subject to intense scrutiny, and eventually, the criminal justice system snagged some of the co-conspirators.
“Fast & Furious” was an act of war. The now failing obama regime has become a state sponsor of terror, inflicting grievous harm upon the people of Mexico, by armning the terrorists in that sovereign country. There was no such thing as “collateral damage”, the terrorist strike on unarmed civilians by a paramilitary force (like the Zetas) and destruction of the civil authority in that country is one of the marks of irregular and asymmetrical warfare.
We condemn Iran for doing the very same thing.
CNN was Clinton’s network long before it was “The One’s”. Me thinks this is the fuse. being lit..?
