IMHO (as big as it is), I have a solution to “Fast and Furious”.

Since the Mexicans have confirmed over 200 deaths caused by guns “walked” across our common border why don't we expedite government officials involved in “Fast and Furious” to Mexico?

The only way to avoid this act is to have all named senior players turn “Congressional Evidence” and provide documented answers to all questions posed.

Fifth Amendment be damned. Their actions, individually and collectively have forever damaged the “full faith and credit” of the Unites States. Their actions will endanger every American citizen who travels to or lives in Mexico. So, why should they be able to hide? Additionally, when was the last time you heard of the State Department taking active measures to protect Americans abroad?

If a “person of interest” fails to fully answer questions and provide documentary backup for his statements he should be judged guilty as “an unindited co-conspirator” and treated harshly.

Just a few cycles of my proposed system will go a long, LONG, way to curbing the illegal activities of various Washington bureaucrats.

Will it happen?

Hello No. After all why does the republic exist these days - so support “We, the People” or shield our ruling elites from their illegal and immoral activities?

Absolutely not! Our Constitutional rights are sacred and must not be used as weapons. As much as I want to see Obama and Holder be prosecuted for their role(s) in this, I don't want to bend the Constitution for political purposes.
