Obama invoked executive privilege to put a stop to investigating the murder of Jamie Zapata.
From what I'm gathering, Obama invoked executive privilege to stop anyone from finding out that it's our OWN government that killed Zapata because he was getting too close to figuring out that F&F was an untraceable gun running scheme implemented for the purpose of getting assault weapons ultimately banned in the United States because these types of weapons in the hands of Americans pose the greatest threat to the government when the SHTF?

Talking about Metro Sheepherder, I blew a gasket the other night, Friday? when FNC interrupted an hour long show with Hannity interviewing Marco for the entire hour! We got to hear background of a child abuser until the top of the hour when we learned what we already knew that some idiot in Penn. was a child molestor! Big whoop,surprise, surprise!!Thanks a lot FNC.
At least Sean got them to rerun the show tonight at 9:00PM. Small consolation,hope they don’t pull that trick again.
To add a new twist, Zapata had interdicted F&F weapons & signed an ROI report that Big Sis evidently was not aware of - the plot thickens.

Cripes, is that a classic case of Whistling Past the Graveyard or what?
By "...his base Hispanics....", does he mean all of those illegals that got voter registration cards along with their first batch of welfare (aka DNC graft) checks and the Obamaphone, or just that loudmouth bunch of racebaiters the MSM's got posing for pictures this week?
JMHO, the only people in this country who are "energized" right now is the people who've been footing the bill for this craporama and who have had this criminal administration, their corrupt political structure, their pimp media and all of their other sodomite pets right up to their eyebrows. (Check with Wisconsin voting for that...)
And Wallace is only too aware of that situation.
Still, he's got his marching orders and he knows he'd best put the very best spin he can on everything he can.
While he can.
(I've really got to wonder what people like Wallace are thinking deep down about their future. I guess he's got a bright spot someplace selling used cars, but I wouldn't buy from him.)
Morning AB, All ..
Was hot in the swamps last week but was everywhere.
As always, thank you AB for doing this thread.
Couple of my Blog posts I invite yon readers to peruse. One is my take on Fast & Furious because I’ve been studying this case, getting all the facts, getting up to snuff on this. I suspect this will be a subject of the Sunday talk shows as well so should yon reader wish, maybe check it out now. Though hey, plenty of people have chimed in on this subject as it is, no matter what MSNBC tells you, a HUGE issue.

Also a link to my book review on Dick Cheney’s book “In My Time”.
http://patfish.blogspot.com/2012/05/book-review-in-my-time-by-dick-cheney.html
I really enjoyed Cheney’s book but was very surprised at so many things. My heading tease for the book is:
Book Review: “In My Time” by Dick Cheney. Who Knew Cheney Was So Liberal?
For now let me say, softly, that I’m hearing rumbles of a possible march on Washington over the Fast & Furious. I don’t know where this will go, if anywhere, but if anything ever deserved the Tea Party to make a fuss it’s the Fast & Furious. For now I will enjoy the commentary on both the Sunday talk shows and this thread.
Here’s a video on F&F by Bill Whittle that ought to go viral - he does a great job explaining why the Wide Receiver program under Bush was nothing like what Obama/DOJ did & why F&F was so horrendous (they needed Mexican deaths for it to ‘work’) and how SHAMEFUL it is that the media won’t report it. I’ve already sent it on to folks I know. Bill Whittle is just terrific.

Why is it that 0zero and Hillary supported the overthrow in Syria and Egypt because of humanitarian reasons, yet they do not support similar actions in Iran?
Watching the press on the F&F issue is almost embarrasing. Check out NewsBusters - http://www.newsbusters.org
The hits just keep on coming.
Everyone needs to read Bray’s article; it’s great!
I’ve been saying all along on this thread—for years—that our biggest enemy is the press. They hate us and our values. They might win this fight, though.
We need to really put the pressure on. A TEA party-like rally in Washington DC makes perfect sense.
Anyways, I’m off to church/Mass. Ill be praying that the press has to tell the truth. That’s all I ask. See y’all in a few hours!
FNS
Issa:
The House will probably vote to hold Holder in contempt — and it will be a bipartisan vote.
[That could sting — the bipartisan part.]
Though Democrats wish to deny the relation, the Communist and Socialist will support Democrats because they think it is the fastest vessel to ruin the rights of states and individuals guaranteed in US Constitution.
FNS
Cummings finds it ‘unfortunate’ that Holder is in such trobule.
lol
Cummings is saddened that the Congress is going to find the AG in contempt.
Cumming then goes into a defense of Holder, saying he has already given over 7,000 documents, etc.
FNS
Wallace asks Issa what would come after a contempt vote.
Issa sidesteps a direct response, says they will continue to investigate ‘a host of other abuses’ after the vote.

President Obamas News Conference

...Weve got to also take some steps. Even as he is doing more to deal with the drug cartels sending drugs into the United States, we need to do more to make sure that illegal guns and cash arent flowing back to these cartels. Thats part of whats financing their operations. Thats part of whats arming them. Thats what makes them so dangerous. And this is something that we take very seriously, and were going to continue to work on diligently in the months to come.
The efforts to assist Mexico part starts at about 25 minutes;
Presidential News Conference

He then answered questions on a number of topics including the economy, efforts to assist Mexico in combatting drug cartels, international monetary policy, tax policy, stem cell research, and the Middle East peace process.
Why why why do they even have to waste valuable air time on the RAT Cummings? I seriously doubt Wallace has the nads to needle the lying bastard.
Cummings asked by Wallace if he would keep his promise to the Terry's (parents) that he would not rest until he got to the bottom of this.
Cummings changes the topic to how he had a nephew slaughtered in his district (probably black on black crime) and states that there is no evidence that Terry was killed by a F&F weapon.
I don’t know how Issa maintains his composure when dealing with these worms.
Issa: “The bottom line is Justice lied to the American People in Feb and they lied to the American People for 10 months.”
