Sheriff Paul Babeau: Fast and Furious scandal is far from over
Hotair ^ | February 11, 2012 | Tina Korbe

Posted on 02/11/2012 7:41:49 PM PST by Rabin

This is a larger scandal than anything like Watergate, Nobody died there. People lied and there was a cover-up.

Here, there’s lies and cover-ups and we still don’t have the answers, but people have been killed.

Fourteen hundred of these guns are still outstanding; other people will die from actions of Eric Holder and the Department of Justice.”

Read an article title on FR that said Issa has caved on bringing Holder up on charges! True?

I thought the crying Speaker of the House is the one putting a stop to Issa. Girly-boy Boehner lost his stones?

I agree. This scandal is much bigger than Watergate. The media is failing once again.

You're both right. Read the original article here.

Boehner has no balls. We're talking about murder here. Murder of a federal agent. This is outrageous.

I have no doubt that Issa, et al are doing all they can to get to the bottom of this. Unfortunately, they are getting little support from higher ups.

Of course I don’t know what is going on but is Issa folds on this quest to find the truth about Holder’s involvement in GR then I have to believe he was pressured by the Elite DC Establishment!

I’m about ready to see Issa brought up on charges of failure to do his job.

How do we know when it’s just a case of gutless incompetence vs. when the investigator becomes part of the cover-up?

This whole deal stinks to high heaven!

From what I’ve read true! And the backstory is that Boner is behind the cave in. We need to get rid of that pathetic jerk! Come on Ohio, can’t you give us someone decent? I don’t think Boner has any backbone at all!

Zero is a drug President. I am not surprized he would support the drug business. It’s all the fluff power change talk of the day.

Red 232, “Girly-boy Boehner lost his stones?”

Boehner, like his Senate counterpart, 3 Tranche Mitch. May seem weepy and snively, but they are not girly boys. They are New Plantation, Good Old Boys.

Issa is a roughneck marching to his own drummer, and his faithful sidekick Grassley, is a good man with ethanol baggage. Neither takes well to Bullying.

the wagons have been circled and the rulers on both sides of the isle are in protect each other mode. Nothing at all will come of this now. The fix is in and we may as well stop wasting time on it. Another example of the people getting the gov’t they deserve.

Fast and Furious does not compare in the least with Watergate. Not in the slightest. Nixon was a Republican.

Don’t forget that agent Victor Avila was also wounded with a F&F firearm (purchased in Italy, Texas).

Innocent people and law enforcement DEAD? It doesn't matter who or how many die when totalitarians have a pre-meditated agenda to drive.

No one knows where the guns came from that ICE agent Avila was shot with because the hit team left the scene and was never identified or captured. You’re thinking of the SKS bought by an FBI CI found at the scene of BP agent Terry’s murder.

No, the media is in on it.

You have to realize the Global Marxists include the media.

Soros, Trumka, Jeffrey Immelt and Sulzberger are all all on the same team.
