The link is a video of Sheriff Paul Babeu, Arizona, speaking to Anderson Cooper about the failure's of the ATF's "Fast and Furious" operation. This was a stunning report - Anderson looked shaken by the ineptness of the government.

Impeachment begins in the House not at the President’s desk. Time to move this forward.

If you think the whimps in the house are up to the task of impeaching a black president or going after a black attorney general then you haven's been paying close enough attention. They're scared to death of being accused of racism. So much so that they are literally neutered by it. They can't even get the Maxine Watters investigation going and she's a slam dunk of guilt and theft of taxpayer dollars.

Obama can get away with anything. Even not having a valid birth certificate.

Even posting an easily provable fake birth-certificate. :/

And this is the Babeu segment you linked in the top of your thread.

200+ people killed. Huh.

Somebody remind me - how many people were killed by Watergate? Because if I remember correctly it's ..... zero.

Zer0 wanted American guns planted in Mexico in order to demonize American firearms dealers and gun owners.

A host of federal agencies - including the ATF, FBI, IRS, ICE, DEA and top officials at DHS - were all in the loop at various levels, as was the White House.

Calling 'Fast and Furious' a cockamamie operation gone wrong just isn't going to cut it anymore.

A cache of assault weapons lost in the ATF's gun-trafficking surveillance operation in Phoenix turned up in El Paso, where they were being stored for shipment to Mexico, according to internal agency emails and federal court records.

Considering the level of stupidity on display at ATF, the agency might want to consider an insanity defense.

In a sane world, Congress would impeach at least the Department heads involved and depending on his involvement take impeachment action against the President himself. Instead, he's running for re-election.

The piss-stream media ignores corruption story after corruption story on a daily basis now. Sad real sad. Nothing to see here, folks, just move along. Ignore the dead bodies.

Your tax dollars at work under the Obama administration... It's fully paid for.

Have another muffin Eric.

There is no statute of limitations on murder.

When Obama and Holder are thrown out by the voters, the next Attorney General should seek indictments of those two and of every federal agent who participated in arming international narcotics traffickers to commit mass murder in Mexico and in the United States.

The felony indictments of Obama, Holder and the others should also include violations of U.S. State Department regulations on the subject of arms exports.

These guns were illegally bought by U.S. federal agents and handed to Mexican narcotics traffickers for the purpose of facilitating murder.

The purpose of this murderous operation was to falsely accuse lawful, American gun dealers of failing to prevent the widespread sale of guns to criminals so as to whip up public support for further weapons bans in the United States.

The blood of hundreds of victims of these slayings is for the furthering of the political ambitions of the Chicago thug, the foreign communist, Obama, and his gangster accomplices, including Eric Holder.

With Obama, Holder and the former federal agents doing hard time in a federal penitentiary, the American people might gain some renewed confidence in a legal system presently so corrupt, it is not now worthy of the respect or support of the citizens of this nation.

As wacky as that may sound, I must tell you that theory is gaining traction, not just among the second amendment crowd because this operation makes no other sense.

"Wacky."

Yeah, sure.

"Theory."

Ok.



Webbed feet, quacks, dripping a trail of water and covered in feathers.



This is just a "wacky theory" mind you, but...

He got out of Dodge once word came out Sheriff Joe in Maricopa County was starting his own investigation. Same reason ATF got all their guilty perp underlings out of AZ. Most of them got reassigned into the ATF labyrinth in Washington DC

As Obozo said, his real gun control was going on below the radar.

Rumor in AZ has it that the administration was in a panic after the Giffords shooting, thinking that may have been one of their guns due to the unusual high capacity magazines that Loughner had.So that's probably why they jumped so hard on the "Loughner is right-wing" and "watch what you say" BS... to try to distract everyone and buy some time. That's also why the Democrap sheriff of Pima county got in front of cameras before the investigation was even complete and started running off at the mouth.

Don't forget how they sent NY Mayor Bloomberg to Phoenix last spring to do his own little "crime sweep" and talk the talk about the so-called "gun show loopholes" in Phoenix. This regime obviously likes to use its governors as mouthpieces, just see "Beverly Perdue." Bloomberg was here to garner press for what the DOJ was doing. They were laying their groundwork to attack the 2nd Amendment all last winter and spring before this F&F thing broke.

I totally agree with your prognosis. I was just stating what should happen.

Just as Germans were held accountable and denazified, whoever followed those orders should be held accountable too. The government needs to be de-Obamaed and the evil laws and fundings revoked.

It is not just about removing Zero from office.

If we keep the same legislations around, what good is that going to do to us?

Fox has covered several times, but I am not aware they did an hour special on the subject.

Hannity did an hour segment on F&F a few weeks ago. Though it was decent reporting, nothing was covered that we didn't already know.

Thank you. I will see if I can find it. I am interested from the vantage point of ignorance; i.e., is it presented well enough that viewers who knows nothing about F & F (most of America) can understand the magnitude and implications of what happened.

Yes. It was well covered by Hannity. If your coming up from a cold start, this is a good show to watch.

IMHO this is not going away and probably will result in prison sentences, and hopefully the trail will lead to the WH. I mean it obviously does lead there, but hopefully will be proved to do so.
