The Washington Post carries the water for the DNC and liberals -— AGAIN.

In case you didn’t know, the Washington Post is an accomplice in this case!

Back in 2010, the WaPo ran stories about a particular gun shop being the source of the supposed “iron river” or firearms flowing into Mexico.

Unfortunately, the WaPo story was based 100% on a BATFE source. The reporters never checked the story out.

It turned out that the dealer was cooperating with the BATFE and was ordered to sell firearms to straw buyers under Fast & Furious. The dealer’s attorney provided proof to the WaPo.

The retraction was buried (as usual).

This is how the Obama Administration was planning to set us all up. Let the guns walk by ordering the dealers to sell them, then use the media to point the finger at US dealers as the source of illegal firearms in Mexico.

This is why the White House screamed at Sharyl Attkisson....she was straying off the liberal plantation that the NYT, ABC, NBC, CNN and WaPo were still on.

For the White House to believe the media would cover for murder is an incredible event! It shows how close to the precipice we stand as a nation.

Hell, I bet you the reporters DID check the story out, and found out it was a scam to subvert the Second Amendment in popular opinion. Then they smiled widely, and knowingly, and ran the stories the BATF asked for -- twice as hard.

Here is what Sharyl Attkisson claims was said to her by Eric Schultz:

Attkisson said he had “literally screamed at me and cussed at me” about the story, and that the White House also told her that she was the only reporter not being “reasonable” about the issue.

DO you have some links to those stories? They’d be great!

This is true, If the real FACTS come out, those media organs who did not pull out and publish/air the TRUTH will have blood on their hands, and their credibility will be shot.
