JUST DO IT!

So what did Attorney General Eric Holder know about the controversial Fast and Furious operation that put thousands of U.S. guns in the hands of Mexican drug lords and when did he know it?
Holder told the Judiciary Committee May 3, “I’m not sure of the exact date, but I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks.”
But in a newly discovered July 2010 memo Michael Walther, director of the National Drug Intelligence Center, told Holder that straw buyers in the Fast and Furious operation “are responsible for the purchase of 1,500 firearms that were then supplied to the Mexican drug trafficking cartels.”
Congressional investigators believe Holder began receiving weekly briefings on the program from that day on. The program didn’t become a matter of public knowledge until a Border Patrol agent was killed and two of the U.S.-supplied guns were found at the scene. A spokesperson for the Justice Department now insists that Holder simply misunderstood the committee’s question, which seems lame in the extreme.
There is, of course, an easy way to clear things up, and that’s for Holder to come before the committee again and correct the record, to disclose at what point he realized that guns were “walking” across the border never to be seen again, and why this idiotic effort wasn’t halted sooner.
Obama knew too!
With Obama/Holder, it may still be going on.
When this shows up on the Mcneil Lehrer report we’ll know their goose is cooked. This spells the end of obama. nobody can get around the salient facts in this case. The dems had better send someone to the whitehouse for answers. Heads will roll!!!
It is really hard to believe that our own government deliberately armed our the enemy (Mexican Drug Cartel) against the very people who pay it’s salary, isan’t it?
It’s sort of like shooting oneself in onee’s foot. These brainwashed goons are hell bent to bring about the very best country in the history of mankind, into Socialism. Even after watcdhing country after country fail underS socialism they actually want to install something far worse than Co0mmunism! And guess what they will get for their trouble? Genocide. Complete loss of freedom. Abject slavery. Only the Etablishment will flourish.
We cannot allow this to happen to future generations! Go Herman Cain!
And what was that reason again for which Scooter Libby was frog-marched out of the Bush Administration?. . .his version of events did not agree, in one specific non-consequential area, with the testimony of ONE other person. . .that being Tim Russert?
NOT ENOUGH!
Praying to God for divine intervention. We may be rid of them before 2012.
