As Katie points out, if the Obama administration is ready to be so cavalier with the Constitution and a few American lives here and there, just to push their leftist agenda—of what else are they capable?

Not to mention 300+ dead innocent Mexicans.

F&F was designed to place U.S. sourced weapons in the hands of cartels and criminals, with the objective of providing evidence for the “need” for CONTROLLING weapons sales in America.

Proof of this is found in the AG’s story telling regarding weapons recovered by Mexican authorities.
They refer to “90% of the weapons TRACED” were found to come from the U.S.
Note they do NOT refer to the number of weapons RECOVERED, instead using “traced”.
This is because they don’t bother “tracing” weapons clearly originating from China and Central American military and police.

As another poster mentioned in a different thread:

"...it's called the 2nd Amendment and if the US Congress fails to impeach and then remove from office any president guilty of such a blatant high crime as an unconstitutional and premeditated refusal to respect the constitutionally enumerated powers of our highest court, that fail-safe mechanism must and WILL be initiated!"

I believe Fast and Furious is a test case to see if the fascist, centralized powers that be in DC have the ability to unconstitutionally arm those who they want armed and disarm those they want disarmed. Once they prove they can do that then its bye bye America.

Careful. It sounds like you’d vote in the next presidential election even if your only choice is Romney. (I agree with your tagline)

I wonder if “Hillary Rosen” thinks “Katie Pavlich” has worked a day in her life?

lol, I doubt Katie is the type of working women the Obama administration likes. :-)

See history of USSR/Russia post 1917 for possibilities. We are today facing essentially the same theory of government.
(See also Bill Ayers, H. Clinton, N. Pelosi, et al.)

Let's call it what it is. State-sponsored terrorism.

On this side of the border it's violations of the RICO Act. In Mexico and Honduras it's state-sponsored terrorism.

What else would you call heavily arming international criminal syndicates within a foreign country wherein that country is in a death struggle with those syndicates?

Especially when it goes beyond thousands of assault rifles to include grenades, RPGs, shoulder fired rockets, anti-aircraft guns, night vision equipment, body armor and special deals to bring their drugs onto our soil with legal impunity?

Not to mention the just-revealed news that the rip crew that killed BP Agent Brian Terry was there with DEA and FBI assistance and approval to attack and kill a rival cartel's smuggling crew.

Let's not leave out the FBI and DEA laundering millions of dollars for the drug cartels by setting up bank accounts for them that they otherwise couldn't do.

It's organized, it is spread through every Federal LEA and it violates numerous domestic laws and numerous statutes and treaties that deal with foreign nations. Yet none of it has been officially sanctioned. It's the FedGov acting like mafiosa.

0bama, Holder and Hillary Clinton are all deeply involved in this and it is state-sponsored terrorism. These Chicago machine Marxist thugs are dragging our country down to the level of Tehran and Pyongyang.

“Let’s call it what it is. State-sponsored terrorism.”

I’ll call your State-sponsored terrorism, and raise you the State-sponsored racism of the NBP voter intimidation case being thrown out.

The fallout of the voter case is nothing compared to F&F, but it should at least have similar moral outrage.

I do not thin one more presidential “election” is going to fix this country.
