Not a bad summation, but he is missing the Honduras and Texas connections so far.
If there is a problem with posting an entire Weekly Standard article, I would like to know. I did not see a copywrite notice.

It’s not malpractice.
It’s malfeasance.

In April 2009, the administration claimed that “90 percent” of the weapons used in Mexican cartel violence originated in the United States, a figure that was also parroted by the Mexican government.
When congressional hearings examined the substance of that claim, the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) revealed that figure referred only to guns that the Mexican government handed over to the ATF. Of the total number of guns seized by Mexican authorities, about 8 percent were of U.S. origin.

The 0bama admin's Operation Fast & Furious caused death and destruction, solely for the purpose of more gun control here. Right Hillary, right Janet, right Mr. Caldaron, am I correct Mr. Holder?
If you are not sure, Eric, ask your boss, or Sarah Brady.

If there is a problem with posting an entire Weekly Standard article, I would like to know. I did not see a copywrite notice. When you click the Preview or Post buttons on the thread posting page, the software checks the URL of the article you're posting against the "gotta be excerpted" or "no posting allowed" databases. If the posting software does not complain, you're good to go.
