Hey, I don’t hold his past against him.

We’d have never made it to the moon if not for Wehrner von Braun.....and there’s no question of his deep collaboration with Schicklgruber’s regime.

You may believe it won’t happen but I think a critical mass is gathering. Conservatives I believe are only waiting until after the election to see if the can control both chambers of Congress.

With conservatives effectively controlling Congress, there will be no liberal justice appointments, no funding of Obamacare and likely a repeal, a rollback of Fed Reserve phony stimulus, and stopping any gun control, internet censorship or squelching of mining and drilling for political purposes.

But what we need are really strong and articulate conservatives who can sell the American public to get off the dole and get back to work. And to stop any possibility that Obama take credit for putting people back to work, the Conservatives need to bring about massive investigations into the President’s past, his fraud on the public, and the money, the green money and the squandering of money by cronies of the President. Conservatives need to keep the focus on the money and misdeeds while taking credit for commonsense policies such as the Keystone pipeline and for Fast & Furious, counterfeit birth certificates and SS Registrations.

I would do as you say regarding Obama and Holder.

I would instruct the AG to investigate members of congress who have significant gains in wealth since they were first elected. Including there voting records and any connection to them personally. I would start at the top, Harry Reid and Pelousy being first.

Bush did nothing about the Clintons and the next president will do nothing about these current criminal group. The more powerful you are the more likely you won’t ever be held accountable.

Right we did cover this story months and months ago. But I don’t think the guy had quite finished spilling his guts at the time.

The bitchy one trying to drown herself by walking into the pool last week was just a bit overplayed, IMHO.

Let me just edit out the plea bargain language;

Zambada-Niebla claims that under a “divide and conquer” strategy, the U.S. helped finance and arm the Sinaloa Cartel through Operation Fast and Furious in exchange for information that allowed the DEA, U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and other federal agencies to take down rival drug cartels. The Sinaloa Cartel was allegedly permitted to traffic massive amounts of drugs across the U.S. border from 2008 to 2012 — during both Fast and Furious and Hussein-era gunrunning operations — as long as the intel kept coming. This pending court case against Zambada-Niebla is being closely monitored by some members of Congress, who expect potential legal ramifications if any of his claims are substantiated. The trial was delayed but is now scheduled to begin on Oct. 9. Zambada-Niebla is reportedly a close associate of Sinaloa Cartel kingpin Joaquin “El Chapo” Guzman and the son of Ismael “Mayo” Zambada-Garcia, both of which remain fugitives, likely because of the deal made with the DEA, federal court documents allege.

DITTO THAT!

And how can we forget about UNARMED National Guard sent to the border.

Let’s face it NEITHER PARTY will ever EFFECTIVELY secure the border. Candidates who would, i.e., Duncan Hunter...aren’t given the time of day.

No, it doesn’t, but it’s really stupid that the enemy telegraphed their pressure point, and we purposely avoid it. That’s just yet another case of piss-poor management of OEF.

I read there was a program like “Fast and Furious” during Bush Admin. but it was short-lived....Operation Wide Receiver which was ended in 2007. Google it. Altogether different than what the Obama cretins did.
