This is about the 100th thing Obama and his cronies have done to destroy and subvert the constitution. He think he is invincible. It is like OBama is wanting to get impeached.

Now the question is, will the Republicans grow a spine and stand for something.

"Holder openly proclaimed his connection to the operation in April 2009 during a publicized speech in Mexico, then told a Congressional Committee in May 2011, "I probably heard of Fast and Furious the first time in the last few weeks."

Don’t forget to include the Honduras angle also. More than one Central American country is involved in this.

“This is about the 100th thing Obama and his cronies have done to destroy and subvert the constitution. He think he is invincible. It is like OBama is wanting to get impeached.”

Is BHO dba POTUS arming a civilian defence force (CDF) like he promised to do in his campaign?

What is the status of his CDF promise?

Hearings are going on right now, as of 10am eastern time.

Everybody stay tuned for big news—at least that’s what Codrea and Vanderbaugh are saying.

It’s being streamed through the Fox News web site. Opening statements of witnesses are occurring now.

The reason Obama keeps the debt ceiling negotiations in turmoil is to take the focus off Issa’s investigation.

Interfering with the cooperation or testimony of a witness undermines the judicial system and is a serious crime.

Often called witness tampering or intimidation, it is usually punished as a felony.

I’m not sure where the hearings are being carried live, but we’ll be getting reports shortly, I’m sure of that.

I confess..I listen to NPR in the morning before my dog walk.
It get’s both me and my dog awake.
There was a break threw this AM. NPR finally reported on Fast and Furious. It was a very guarded report,but basically accurate. Short a lot of details, but it seems that they have been forced to acknowledge that some of the weapons were used to kill a USBP Agent.
Except now that the MSM will start reporting and spinning these hearings down, but eventually the shite will hit the spinners.

Isn´t witness tampering supposed to be a crime?

Silly me, eh?

Let's say it one more time:

Often called witness tampering or intimidation, it is usually punished as a felony.
