I, for one, do not believe any of the propaganda that comes over the border.

We need a means of having this sort of investigation conducted by people outside of Washington and that doesnt mean people chosen by politicians.Maybe the media can help us with this. They did such a good job with Watergate, after all.

The “Shovel Ready” shovels will be out now as the Obama’s minions work hard to bury this before it lands on his desk.

700 mistaken congressional districts... There are only 435 districts to friggin begin with! The extra 700 must be in the extra 9 states that Obama was talking about (”been to all 57 states with a couple more to go”)

Did you send it to Rush, Mark, Sean?

Hey, they had to pass it to know what was in it (heavy sarcasm intended). If they knew funding for it was in the bill, then aren’t they complicit? This is why they will not be screaming for further investigations nor the indictments of the administration that are neck deep in the scandal.

What does $10 million pay for here? It didn't hire any new agents that I am aware of.It went for above budget costs of running the operation. Per diem, travel expenses, overtime/night/Sunday premium pay, undercover costs, etc.
That being said, even before it came to light that ATF was dumping guns on the streets, their inspector general had already started investigating the use of these funds. I think one of the big offices spent $1.5 million in these funds and netted 6 arrests and 12 guns total. A complete waste of money.

For some reason Drudge seems to be ignoring, or holding off on this issue.

F&F only let them go up until Agent Terry was killed. After that, the straw buyers were rounded up and the stonewall erected.

As
reported in February by Sharyl Attkisson of CBS News, who has done great reporting on this from the beginning. I follow her on Twitter.
Then, Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was murdered. The serial numbers on the two assault rifles found at the scene matched two rifles ATF watched Jaime Avila buy in Phoenix nearly a year before. Officials won't answer whether the bullet that killed Terry came from one of those rifles. But the nightmare had come true: "walked" guns turned up at a federal agent's murder.
"You feel like s***. You feel for the parents," one ATF veteran told us.
Hours after Agent Terry was gunned down, ATF finally arrested Avila. They've since indicted 34 suspected gunrunners in the same group. But the indictment makes no mention of Terry's murder, and no one is charged in his death.
Agent Terry was killed and they decided it was time to fold the tents, round up the straw buyers, declare the operation a success, and stonewall, stonewall, stonewall.
