The Justice Department is obstructing the congressional investigation of a U.S. law enforcement operation intended to crack down on major weapons traffickers on the Southwest border, according to the embattled leader of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

No. This operation had other intentions.

[DrNo]

You’re correct; the media and the (non-gun)pundits keep granting “good intentions,” but the structure of the operation screams otherwise!

[Teotwawki]

At least now they have identified the biggest weapons trafficker on the Southwest border; it's the ATF. Now we just need to shut them down.

[Bloody Sam Roberts]

Indeed. Still, the amount of lying, obfuscating and finger pointing is enough to make you scream. Or pick up a pitchfork.

[Jack Hammer]

No surprise; no one expects the Obama Justice Department to be interested in justice.

[Realman30]

Perhaps the NYT will do an investigative story on this issue??

[hans56]

The only news outlet I find this on is FOX.
I really hope the media looks like as big a fools as Holder and Obama when this reaches it peak.

[RC one]

how...scandalous. I love it. I also love how the Mexican government is screaming for justice now. That ought to stir the cesspool up even more.

[chiefqc]

The entire mac, the liar, daddies administration is corrupt to the core and beyond.

[Sprite518]

Imagine that??? No surprise at all...

[Sprite518]

The road to hell is paved with “good intentions”.

[FlingWingFlyer]

That bass turd “top cop” is trying to keep his own ass out of jail. The boy is a disgrace.

[Sprite518]

If the Bush Administration did this, then you can bet it would be all over the news every single night. The media and press would go basaltic.

However, since it’s Obama, then they pretty much ignore it and pay more attention to Casey Anthony. It’s to keep everyone distracted. Yes the case was interesting, but so are a lot of cases. Why is this more serious than Fast and Furious?

0bama Arms Mexican Drug Cartels - Dept. of Justice Involved In Coverup!

[Venturer]

Let's see if I have this right.

Obama wants to throw Melson under the bus.

Then he wants to replace him with a man that is much worse than Melson.

Melson says the Justice Department is stonewalling. That pretty much means that Justice is the Department who was carrying out this plot, but we cant get the head of justice,because that is Eric Holder.

Holder has to be covered,because the next step in this plot is Obama.

Issa and Grassley are about to come into some real power,
They can probably be bought,but it won't be cheap.

I doubt we will ever see the bottom of this. Melson will be forced out but he is just fodder, the real plotters will skate. The White House is involved.

[Venturer]

If this thing is ever fullt investigated and carried to it’s right conclusion, it will make Nixon look like a boy scout and Watergate look like a picnic.

[GOPJ]

It’s Watergate - and the ‘cover up’ might be criminal...

[CPT Clay]

Obstruction of Justice by the HOLDER Justice Departmant?

Say it aint so!!!

[Spok]

They do it because they can get away with it.
