"Obama is the pioneer of the White House attempt to cover-up the federal government gun scandal," gun rights expert John M. Snyder said here today.
Human Events has noted that Snyder is the gun dean.
"There's no doubt about it now," said Snyder. "President Obama has put himself right in the middle of the Fast and Furious scandal. His invocation of executive privilege places him at the center of the situation as he seeks reelection."
Snyder said that, "Obama's move could be a crucial factor in November. The Fast and Furious scandal has upset the entire Second Amendment community. It also has upset citizens who are sick and tired of government incompetence, chicanery, and deception.
"Obama's action in trying to protect Attorney General Holder from a congressional contempt citation really is an outrage. It causes people to wonder what Holder and Obama are trying to cover up and who they're trying to protect."
"The whole Fast and Furious matter stinks to high heaven," said Snyder. "In that operation, Federal officials got American firearm dealers to sell guns to straw purchasers who transferred them to Mexican drug cartels, allowing thousands of guns to 'walk' across the border. Gangsters used the guns in victimizing many Mexicans and Americans. This included the murder of at least one Federal law enforcement officer.
"Congressional investigators for some time have been trying to get to the bottom of the story. They want documents from the Justice Department and its Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives. Holder's been stonewalling Congress. A contempt citation against him is moving towards a vote in the House of Representatives."
Snyder said that, "Obama now leaves no doubt that he is part of the government stonewalling attempt. In fact, he's leading it. He's pioneering the White House into a confrontation with Congress. Congress has a right to the documents. The American people have a right to see what's in them.
"Stonewall Twins Obama and Holder are trying to thwart the will of Congress and the American people. American voters will have an opportunity to thwart Obama as he seeks reelection this fall."

“But I’m talking about the official, armed ones the government will send out to your home with M16s and body armor. BATF or DHS”
The ATF surrendered to women and children 15 minutes into the firefight at the Davidian church at Waco. If you missed the video of the initial siege, you can see the big bad ATF boys walking away with their hands in the air.
The ATF is the federal government’s Eisengruppen, designed to create terror in the population by attacking women and children. They are cowards, not warriors.
Check out the typical ATF slob at the Elian Gonzalez raid in Florida. Look at the MSM news reports. Most are fat 400-lb slobs who wouldn’t last five minutes on a battlefield. Furthermore, there’s no reason to wait for the gestapo to knock at your door.
Hey, how the heck are you? Been a while since 9/12. I’ve seriously beefed up my domestic defense hardware and done several Appleseeds to improve my marksmanship. I won’t win any competitions, but I am a lot better than I was 3 years ago.
Don’t discount the domestic use of the military. The army (illegally) participated in the WACO affair. Denied of course.
It has been made pretty clear that use of the US military is on the table to keep “order” as defined by the current occupant of the White House.
I disagree strongly with those that believe the members of the military won’t obey orders to subjugate us. History says otherwise.
“I disagree strongly with those that believe the members of the military won’t obey orders to subjugate us. History says otherwise.”
I guess that’s where we disagree. When Lincoln ordered his generals to attack the south, the military split in half.
The most recent example to study is Libya. When Koo-koo Kaddafhi ordered his military to attack Libyans, the bulk of the military deserted and joined provincial militias.
His military commanders were dragged into the courtyard and had their brains blown out.
Kaddafki’s personal mercenary guard were hanged from lampposts or dragged into the street and shot.
Kadaffhi’s brains ended up as a hood ornament on a militia SUV. It’s never a good idea to order your military to kill their families.
If you can provide an example of a king, dictator or tyrant who successfully ordered his troops to kill their parents and families, I’m listening.
Cheers, FRiend
