Barack Obama's Bloodiest Scandal
Townhall.com ^ | April 16, 2012 | Katie Pavlich

Posted on 04/16/2012 5:25:16 AM PDT by Kaslin

Operation Fast and Furious is the deadliest and most sinister scandal in American history. A scandal so big, it’s worse than Iran-Contra and makes Watergate look like a high school prank gone wrong.

In the early days of the Obama Administration, President Obama claimed his goal was to stop the trafficking of guns from the United States into the hands of violent Mexican drug cartels. He claimed gun dealers in the United States were responsible for sending guns to Mexico. Both of his claims were lies.

In order to push his lies and policies built around them, with a goal of implementing harsher gun control laws and reinstating the assault weapons ban, President Obama packed his administration full of anti-Second Amendment zealots. After all, personnel is policy.

In my new book, Fast and Furious: Barack Obama’s Bloodiest Scandal and Its Shameless Coverup, I document the conspiracy of senior Obama officials to subvert the Second Amendment, which led directly to the murders of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, I.C.E. Agent Jaime Zapata and countless, faceless lives in Mexico. It debunks the Obama administration’s lies, denials and excuses. This administration was willing to use humans as collateral damage to push a political agenda, and had no shame in doing so. Now, the administration has no shame in covering up their reckless actions.

Since just moments after Brian Terry was killed in the Arizona desert on December 15, 2010 by Mexican cartel thugs, carrying AK-47s provided to them by the Obama Justice Department through Operation Fast and Furious, the FBI, Homeland Security, ATF, Justice Department and the White House have been engaged in a full scale cover-up.  These are simply names of government agencies, but who are the people behind the cover-up?

I unravel a tangled web connecting President Obama, Eric Holder, Janet Napolitano and a number of advisors and political appointees behind Fast and Furious. These officials have deep loyalties to each other and their anti-Second Amendment ideology dating as far back as the Clinton Administration. In fact, many key Fast and Furious players  have deep ties to Chicago and helped craft the 1994 Clinton assault weapons ban legislation. 

If the majority of American people knew Fast and Furious like they know Solyndra or the GSA scandal, they would be outraged. Despite very few exceptions, the media has been complicit in the cover-up of Obama’s bloodiest scandal by ignoring and refusing to report about it. Why? To protect the President. This scandal, one that has left hundreds of bodies in its wake, would be deadly to the administration. This is the scandal that will bring President Obama down in November, so long as the American people know its details.

Over the weekend, GOP Presidential Candidate Mitt Romney officially made Fast and Furious a general election issue. His advisors are now directly pointing to the scandal as an example of how the Obama Administration used in its first term to “provide cover for potential efforts to restrict Second Amendment rights." In the book, I provide the documents and interviews to prove it.

The Obama administration is acting guilty, not innocent, in its actions to continually stonewall and deny the truth. Any American who believes the President, the Attorney General of the United States, Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano and a long list of other government officials responsible for this reckless program are not above the law, need this book.

Operation Fast and Furious wasn't a "botched" program. It was a calculated and lethal decision to purposely place thousand of guns into the hands of ruthless criminals. The operation was a coordinated and planned effort not to track guns, but to arm thugs south of the border for political gain. Eric Holder should be removed from office for incompetence, dishonesty and charged with perjury. My sources, documented in the book, say Janet Napolitano may also face charges of perjury and potentially obstruction of justice. It is time for President Obama to take responsibility, denounce the operation and fire those involved.

If it is so big and terrible, how come Obama is still President? Why is he not bleeding in the gutter?

I don’t understand obama’s defence. Botched operation? Whats the details? Is he saying, that thousand of guns were handed to criminals without any plan in place to get it back? So why were they given to them in the first place?

In other words, The Administration embarked on a PLAN TO OVERTHROW the 2nd Amendment to the Constitution and thereby the Constitution itself, and countless innocent people lost their lives. We used to call this something??

This is why I said yesterday that eligibility issue wouldn't be much of a scandal even if it were to come out that Obama was actually born outside of the country.

Hell, just his associations with Bill Ayers, a known and convicted domestic terrorist should have been more then enough to keep him out of politics, much less the White House.

The Media has become so dishonest and corrupt that they will whitewash every bit of this guys dirty laundry and the American people have simply become to lazy to think for themselves to care about the truth.

Obama could engage in ritual human sacrifice on live TV and his hardcore supporters would be unfazed while everyone else was too busy with American Idle to care.

This guy is simply untouchable and above the law and the vast majority of the American people don't care.

IMHO...it is about drug-running...and the ATF’s attempts to “convert” it into something less.

The ATF should have been defunded and shut down after Waco and Randy Weaver. The fact that Congress has continued to fund them is concerning about the “hold” thay may have on some of the ranking members...and is yet another arguement for term limits

“The House would impeach Obama today if the Senate was not controlled by the communists.”

Curious if the House, regardless of the Republican majority could overcome the approximately 80 CPC members, and their influence amongst the Democrats to effectively impeach Obama.

A passing thought.

I’m certain the NYT and the rest of the LSM will review this important book.

Because Obama is supported, aided, helped
by Boehner and the rest of the sell-out GOP DAILY.

Boehner hates conservatives and sides
with Obama EVERY SINGLE DAY.

The rule of law seems to be asleep, mesmerized by the subversion of Progressives.

The House could still impeach regardless of what the Senate finally does with it.

The Senate, inspite of being (R) control still didn't convict Clinton in 1998, but could you imagine what it would be like if Harry Reid doesn't let something like this even come to trial any more than he lets a budget resolution come to the floor for a Senate vote?

And could you imagine Obama testifying under oath during his election campaign. He'd have perp written all over his face even like Clinton did.

The problem with Clinton's impeachment was the timing -- it gave him 2 years until Gore's run to clean up his reputation and to allow Gore to distance himself (taking a leak -- too much iced tea, remember?) in the meantime.

FReegards!

The American people don’t believe in “Democratic” scandals, only Republican ones.

He is a black leftists. He has so many protections built around him, that it is unlikely he will ever face justice.

Imagine if Fast n Furious had happened with a White Male Republican?

Tens of millions still believe in the media; after all if what they report is false, they would be sued, many "think."
