As if there were not already enough scandals plaguing the Obama administration, the federal Fast and Furious operation that armed Mexican drug cartels is back in the news after the Justice Department Inspector General released a report blasting a government leak intended to smear a key ATF whistleblower.

My day will be made when I see people like O, Holder, and the rest of these thugs sitting in a 4x6 cell. Until then, this is just a dog & pony show.

Still popping burnt popcorn. Ket's go back to when the popcorn was fresh and we had hope.
FOR REFERENCE:
But, I do fear the loss of my honor and would rather die fighting than to have it said that I was without courage. So I will fight you, no matter how insurmountable it may seem, to the death if need be, in order that it may never be said of me that I was not a warrior. -Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry

Of all the You Didn't Build That scandals I've seen thus far, Fast & Furious is far and away the most horrible.
I'd like to see Eric "the Red" Holder spend the rest of his life in prison; whether he ever does a day's time or not, I'm very sure history will tell more than one or two monstrous tales about him.

Stacking all the scandals up at once so that the American public becomes overwhelmed and can't Deny anymore that this is a crooked administration.

What I'd like to know is, why the h&!! is the Mexican government being sooooo quiet about this? There were hundreds of Mexicans, including about 15 teenagers at a party, who were killed with F&F guns. Mexican officials screamed about our border agents shooting a drug runner in the butt. Barry has to be paying them off.

The problem with the leading voices on F&F (and part of their ineffectiveness) is that they talk about Officer Terry (which they should) but go no further. No mention of the Mexican government’s estimate that more than 200 Mexican citizens were killed. Whether you like it or not, if you want to get the press stirred up, 200 dead Mexicans with the US government as co-conspirator will get you a LOT MORE ink and TV time.

The same thugs who were behind the fast & furious gun running are all for gun control...
Is this for real? And the useful fools in society that voted for these creeps still don’t see hypocrisy...
