The more we in the new media push this story, the better the outcome for the United States and the American people.

The MSM is worse than derelect. They have become and active part of the Progressive project to destroy the American republic.

it SHOULD topple Zero and Holder, if some of our pubbie lawmakers can get over the empty minds and scrotums afflictions...I’m thinking the evidence is there, if they will just act.

Probably not. Bush’s fault don’t you know. A black man has no responsibility.

“it SHOULD topple Zero and Holder”

Well, lying before a federal grand jury SHOULD have toppled Bill Clinton, but notice how well that worked out. I’ll cross my fingers on this, but ain’t holding my breath. Democrats have a remarkable ability to look the other way when evidence of wrong-doing implicates one of their own.

Perhaps the war hero John McCain and his lap dog Lindsay Graham will man up and lead the way. Wait, to do so would mean no more Sunday morning talk show invitations. Never mind.

And THEN; theres Pigford ONE and TWO...

A multi-Billion dollar give-away to fake black farmers..
This cost MUCH MORE than Solydra AND “Fast and Furious”..

Congress seems to be a paper tiger when prosecuting “CORRUPTION”..
The Pigford thing seems to have “DIED” a lonely death..

No wonder you hear nothing of the “MAFIA” anymore..
Congress is the NEW mafia.. or the consigiaros ran for office..
Socialism is indeed like the mafias “protection racket”.. exactly like it..
Only took some time for a smart connected lawyer to have noticed that..

Whatever happened to Sandy Burgular(Berger)?...
Is he in Levenworth yet?..

This murderous scandal will continue to plague Holder and Obama for weeks to come, I’m sure. However, having followed this story for the last year, one small detail continues to baffle me: ‘200 mexicans and one border patrol agent killed’.

In the time since these numbers first came out, they have not changed and there are no reports of further Obama/Holder guns being recovered and no reports of more people being killed or injured by them. A deliberate blackout?

If ongoing killings and gun recoveries were being reported, the public would be baying like ‘coon hounds for Holder’s head on a pike; this scandal would have burned the Obamination to the ground already. Instead, with no fresh reports, the public will soon regard the whole nasty business as “old news” from which we must all “move on” to something more timely and topical.

Hot new media infatuations such as OWS participants pooping on cop cars come to mind.

Let's not leave out Hillary Clinton.

Worse Than Gunwalker? State Dept. Allegedly Sold Guns to Zetas

Phil Jordan, a former CIA operative and one-time leader of U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s El Paso Intelligence Center, claims that the Obama administration is running guns to the violent Zetas cartel through the direct commercial sale of military grade weapons:

Jordan, who served as director of the U.S. Drug Enforcement Administration’s El Paso Intelligence Center in 1995, said the Zetas have shipped large amounts of weapons purchased in the Dallas area through El Paso.

(snip)

“They’ve found anti-aircraft weapons and hand grenades from the Vietnam War era,” Plumlee said. Other weapons found include grenade launchers, assault rifles, handguns and military gear including night-vision goggles and body armor.

More about State Department involvement...

— has sources claiming “Obama’s man in the State Department,” (former) Deputy Secretary of State Jim Steinberg, was the State Department operative who helped Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and the Department of Justice Deputy Attorney General David Ogden formulate the strategy that led to the tactics used in Operation Fast and Furious.

Steinberg took office as Deputy Secretary of State on January 28, 2009

A little more than two years later, it was announced that Steinberg's time in the Obama State Department was over. From the New York Times, 30 March 2011:

Mrs. Clinton heaped praise on Mr. Steinberg, describing him as an “indispensable” partner. “On every foreign policy challenge, big and small, he has helped formulate our policy and oversee its execution,” she wrote. Mr. Steinberg, she said, played “Oscar to Jack Lew’s Felix,” referring to Jacob J. Lew, her other deputy, who left earlier this year to become Mr. Obama’s budget director.

From the thread article:

“In a recent column, I laid out the basic outline of the story, and how a very few in the mainstream media were finally getting interested in it.”

From the “recent column” (Sept 29, 2011):

Even when they [MSM] have reported it, they have gone to great lengths to be sure that it didn’t implicate President Obama, much less his Attorney General Eric Holder, for anything other than being out of the loop.

But that may have ended with recent revelations that the federal government apparently purchased weapons and sold them directly to criminals in Mexico. As Michael Walsh of the New York Post wrote, “the Department of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives apparently ordered one of its own agents to purchase firearms with taxpayer money, and sell them directly to a Mexican drug cartel.

Let that sink in: After months of pretending that ‘Fast and Furious’ was a botched surveillance operation of illegal gun-running spearheaded by the ATF and the US Attorney’s office in Phoenix, it turns out that the government itself was selling guns to the bad guys.”

This revelation may prove to be the game changer, and force the Obama administration to turn this over to an independent counsel.

“Whatever happened to Sandy Burgular(Berger)?”

Whatever happened to Janet Reno?

I remember her saying in a televised hearing that she took full responsibility for the Waco massacre.

And..?

“....it SHOULD topple Zero and Holder....”

.
It COULD topple Holder but don’t bet on it — but NOTHING will topple Zero.

There is no congress critter with b*lls who dares to instigate Zero’s downfall.

Ever heard of the domino effect? If Zero goes, so will a bunch of these critters. After all, they put him where he is today.

Answer: No. These types of crimes only matter when Republicans do it. I am old enough to have lived through the Watergate era and compared to the criminality today, it was nothing!

It also doesn’t help that most Republicans in office - or at least those in power - are neutered lap dogs and the press is an arm of the Democrat party.

The criminality in the Watergate era was nothing compared to the criminality in the Roosevelt and Johnson eras either. It has been the Progressive media that has been the main power for decades. Only new media has spelled the destruction of the old media and given most of the people a voice.

It may be enough to save the republic. Time, and how hard we work at it, will tell.
