I think this assessment is correct.
Even the worst scheme theorized as a reason for this — to bring international outrage towards the USA as being a “source of illegal guns” — still seems to hardly suffice to explain why. Holder lied and Mexicans (and Americans) died. That much seems abundantly clear. But I’d almost wonder if there was a mole from a Mexican cartel who tried to punk the US into supplying more guns.
One thing I’d like to know is, did all the guns go to the same drug cartel?
In Miami, did the guns go to one gang? In Honduras, was it one group who got the guns?
That strategy may have been discussed in one of the documents they refuse to turn over, or perhaps even, it could have been an underlying theme.
I don’t know if there is a US liberal today with enough moxie to instigate something like this solely of himself or herself. I’m wondering about foreign influence.
“Theres no other way to characterize this, Limbaugh said. They created, they manufactured crime. They enabled crimes.”
The Democrat Party is a Criminal Enterprise. Been saying that for many years, and will for many to come. It’s imbedded in their perspective of life in general. They will do any number of criminal activities without remorse to get their way.
A vote for a Democrat is a vote for anything to win, anything goes, and that is a crime.

Nope. The cartels get most their guns straight out of the military arsenals of South and Central America; fully automatic weapons, heavy weapons, etc. And they get them a lot cheaper than they could get them from US gun stores.
Pure and simple, the DoJ wanted murder victims killed with weapons traceable to US gun stores to create an “emergency” that would allow them to further undermine the Second Amendment. That is all there was to “Fast and Furious.”
Right on the money. I’m glad he’s hammering this.

Now, that... makes it very clear who is who--
Is there a Democratic Congressman who disagrees with Obama’s and Holder’s objectives? Seriously, is there a Democrat left in Washington who cares about the law, truth and openness in government? It doesn’t look like it.
TREATY ENDANGERS SECOND AMENDMENT AND U.S. SOVEREIGNTY(April 2009)
... On April 16, 2009, President Obama emerged from a meeting with Mexicos President Calderón to announce his support for the Inter-American Convention against the Illicit Manufacturing and Trafficking in Firearms treaty (CIFTA): an international gun control treaty signed by President Bill Clinton in 1997 but never ratified by the U.S. Senate.
Unlike Clinton, Obama has no plans to let the treaty languish without ratification. Thus he promised to push the treaty through the Senate quickly as a means of curtailing the border violence and arms trafficking in Mexicos current drug wars. Yet the text of CIFTA indicates that the treaty would do very little to curtail violence in Mexico, unless creating a national gun registry in the United States is something that will cut crime south of the border
add this Federal Assault Weapons Ban: Eric Holder Gun Control (Feb 2009)
..Attorney General Eric Holder stated in a press conference today that Barack Obamas administration will seek to reinstate the federal assault weapons ban that expired in 2004. Eric Holder was speaking at a news conference announcing a crackdown against a Mexican drug cartel in the United States
... administration will seek to reinstate a federal assault weapons ban that was instituted under Bill Clinton in 1994, and expired under President George W. Bush in 2004. The Federal Assault Weapons Ban was part of the Violent Crime Control and Law Enforcement Act in 1994....
Holder came from the Clinton administration.
There is a little more to the Fast and Furious scheme. The left wants to demonize Americans who own so called, “assault weapons.” It isn’t enough to disarm Americans, the left wants to portray Americans who are pro 2nd Amendment as potential terrorists.
Breitbart.com has uncovered video from 1995 of then-U.S. Attorney Eric Holder announcing a public campaign to "really brainwash people into thinking about guns in a vastly different way."
Yep, combine that with the recent call to investigate “radicalized Christians”...
they’re going for it...
Saw a friend who said that this was a result of the war on drugs. It’s the war on guns behind this scandal.
Mexican politicians were completely on board with this political blame-America scheme. They were doing a barbershop quartet with Obama and Holder.
Impeach Eric Holder, and force the Senate Democrats to play their lockstep game going right into November, right into the teeth of the election. Impeach Holder, try him in public right there in the Senate, pile up the evidence against him.
Make the Democrats cleave to their darlings on national television, on election eve.
Soros, NWO Republicans, and the UN all want the same thing: A world government untroubled by its subject peoples. They want the US Bill of Rights, and esp. the Second Amendment, gone.
The Second Amendment embodies and makes potent the right of the People to abolish their government when it displeases them. That is the principle that rankles the world's would-be Lords Ordainers.
