What’s Bam hiding?
NY Post ^ | June 21, 2012

Posted on 06/22/2012 6:36:12 AM PDT by opentalk

Executive privilege, conceptually speaking, is a lot like the Fifth Amendment to the Constitution: Assert it, and folks assume that there’s a coverup under way.

...In recent weeks, Justice officials have “retracted” earlier sworn statements —including one this week that the operation began under the Bush administration.

All in all, it stinks on ice.

“OK, tinfoil off.”

These people are capable of anything. They take
Herr Goebbels lessons to heart; repeat the lie, repeat it often, the bigger the lie, the better. (Progressive scu&bags will do anything to further the agenda.)

IMHO

Good question ... it is what it is ... and Americans will never have the truth till the documents and emails are released by zer0, holder, hillary and their gangs. The media says the politics is complicated. No it is not. People lied, people died. What parts of this does the media want to cover up? The murders? The people who would suffer and be removed (if there is wrongdoing)? One has to see the documents to piece this puzzle together. Why is the media not calling for the documents and emails to be released? Why protect people who possibly broke the law? Are all of us now living on another planet and in another country where the Rule of Law has been flushed down the toilet? Who or what groups made the decisions to flush the Rule of Law? Easily answered (whether the law was broken or not) if EP had not been asserted and the documents and emails had been released. Withholding the document and emails speaks volumes. Nixon will be looked upon as a choir boy if this release of documents and emails are not released. One can think the EP was therefore issued to protect those who have unlawfully acted. If there is nothing unlawful in the documents and emails the documents and emails would be released wouldn't they? Will be interesting to see how this spin occurs if they attempt to spin it (as they are doing in zer0's office and media), but there are people dead from these guns. This is definitely a case of the democRATs and media saying so what. Will the spin now be people die everyday from guns and this is no different? Would not suprise this one typing.

My apology Breto for using your post for this rant. A prayer you will forgive me.

There’s nothing complicated about: Jamie Zapata was investigating F & F., the suspicious details of his murder, and the fact that now the DOJ is being sued.

So Jaime Zapata may have been set up and deliberately murdered using a F&F gun as part of the scheme?

MSM, is reporting F&F as complicated usual political differences. Brian Williams has implied it is too complicated for viewers to waste time on. Megan Kelly on FOX has also repeated how complicated this is..

Geraldo told the Friends it was nothing but a political witch hunt...Juan brings in W. Same old story.

Could it be a certian Supreme Court Justice that was the go between for him and Holder?

You might have something there!

it is very interesting and very ripe for scratching a back and greasing a palm type of corruption ... Of course, everyone is as pure as the wind driven snow if one can believe those in power and the go along and take the money at election time media, unless it has an R. What makes anyone think a criminal enterprise in our government is going to come (forward as zer0 says) and confess?

Sorry for another rant ... am simply praying Americans will finally say enough! When and if that happens I doubt the documents and emails would be released even then. Am in prayer for our nation. A prayer for truth and justice for our Citizens who have died.

House committee suspects ‘Fast and Furious’ cover-up

...The House committee investigating Fast and Furious has received more than 7,600 documents from the Justice Department, but Republican lawmakers say none addresses who approved the gunrunning probe, who failed to stop it before a U.S. Border Patrol agent was killed and why department officials initially lied to Congress about it.

The gun Zapata was killed with, actually went across the border in Texas, not AZ where F & F was run from....It was an apparently similar if not identicle program. IMO all run by the same people. People have missed the fact that EP did NOT come about until the Zapata wrongful death suit was filed against the DOJ.....IMO that’s is what/why materials are being hidden. Even congress critters have not made the connection....at least publicly

The State Department was involved in Murdergate as well.....this thing could take dowm holder, hillary, kagen, fat sis and zero.....along with ATF, HS and FBI execs.....

This is the destruction of the dim party....that’s why the media and bloggers are pulling out all the stops....

We must not let Boner back off this investigation.....move forward or we will demand a new Speaker!

Exactly, Trav. Fast and Furios has led to the deaths of hundreds. Two US government employees, one a border patriol agent, another a state department agent, have been killed by the weapons. Over 200 mexican citizen deaths have been tied to the weapons, but in a country where 50,000 have died in the drug wars over the last 3-4 years, you can bet that number is probably much higher. If you or I illegally sold a gun to someone who we knew was a criminal, and then that person used that gun to kill, we would be charged as accomplices and accessories in the crime. Felony charges. Eric Holder and his staff are guilty of this type of crime IMHO...and it is appearing more and more like Obama was informed and perhaps approved making him equally culpable. This type of reveleation is what they are so desperately trying to hide. For these crimes...and others too numerous to list here, they both deserve to be in prison. MURDERGATE

Thanks.

If true, this is very suspicious:

The new information released to the public today shows that despite the denials of the Obama Administration, Agent Zapata had apparently stumbled onto a cache of weapons making its way southward toward the southern border, and it just so happened that most of those weapons were part of the Administration's illegal operation to place guns in the hands of Mexican criminals. Four months later Zapata was murdered

Who, then, ultimately were Zapata's "assailants?" While today's evidence does not contain the definitive answer to that question, there are troublesome facts that point to significant knowledge of the danger Zapata faced on the part of the ATF and ICE, danger of which the agent himself in all likelihood was unaware.

Thanks...Article was before lawsuit was filed and before EP. Someone knew what was coming down and are trying to keep it private. Hope the whistle blower is still active.

While I feel for the families of the murdered border agents, I think they are but the tip of the iceberg.

I've heard media saying and talking about people being killed in Mexico, but common sense tells one those guns all did not stay in Mexico.

Those same ruthless cartels are crossing the border taking Americans hostage, murdering them etc. all with weapons supplied by our own government.

What those documents show or are likely to show is this gun scheme not only took place on the border. It took place in New York, Chicago, LA, Hollywood and across the country.

This is the stupidity they are covering up. They are covering up the depth and scope of the program, because if the American people knew the truth about the amount and type of weaponry.....heads would do more than roll.
