With 400 murders to account for in just Mexico this jail time is going to be spent in Mexican jails ~ and not the better sort they put American drunks in for the weekends.

Nosirreebob, those Mexicans got jails that make the Turks shiver!

There are young people in every federal police agency in Washington and in the various regional and division offices who know something about all of this. They may not know it all but they know something. They need to come over to the side of the angels and get hold of Representative Issa's office and start fessing up and naming names. Else their federal career is going to crash and burn!

Leahy dropped his investigation. He be the first socialist democrat I’d throw in jail. When the full truth of this idealogical political fraud is revealed there will be many heading to sing sing. One thing that’s happened. Obama and Hillary don’t have to “Work under the Radar” any longer on gun control I think they along with Holder and the rest of obama’s commie appointees have been detected and are being tracted right now by the Issa and Grassley radar.

I remember the evening "news" on the TV networks back then.. sometimes Watergate was the only thing reported. Even from the very first mention of "proof" of a Nixon connection it was THE story.

A google news search got About 1,870 results for a news search for "fast and furious" (with the quotes)

The skid marks on Journalism's shorts seem to be handling this is the usual manner: No Bush, No action. Run away!

What guidelines have the Society of Professional "Journalists" given the employees of MSM?

Within days of 9/11 the "Journalists" organization was out saying.. don't you dare mention Muslims and terror in the same article! But if you absolutely must.. then include examples of domestic terrorists like the people opposed to abortion.

—So “Fast and Furious” is nothing more than the cover-up of a third rate burglary, amplified into the “story of the decade”, by the anti-American CommieMedia?—

My take is that the evidence is equally conclusive. The actual crime is several orders of magnitude worse.

“will we see this in MSM?”

The answer to your question is no. There are literally no MSM people willing to investigate this.

“By the anti-Republican American CommieMedia.”

####

I don’t consider the collectivist “Democrats” actual Americans. On multiple fronts and via the deployment of various, truly evil methodologies, they have been working to destroy the United States, as we have known it, for decades.

Thus I felt the “Republican” modifier, unnecessary.

This conversation sounds more like co-conspirators than a lawman and a CI.

I emailed Fitzpatrick three times about F&F, so far.

No serious reply from him but I think I got put on another list!;^)

You raised a good point by asking, What the Hell are YOU doing about this?.

I’m fairly certain that the folks following this tragedy here have contacted their political overlords. Sharing any responses received would be an interesting and perhaps enlightening read.

Watergate was Watergate only because the press would not let the story die.

In this case, the press won’t let the story live.

Dead Federal agents as a result of program designed to undermine the Second Amendment to the Constitution, that the culprits swore to uphold. Yea, can’t get a whole lot worse than that. Not without the use of foreign troops trying to do the same thing anyway.

Anything us common citizens can do to see that traitor Leahy doesn’t dodge or finesse his way out of his due justice?

Yep.Just like Valerie Plame.And see Dan Rather’s non career because he tried to politically destroy Bush.Nowadays bloggers create BC’s and the WH posts them.Nowadays there is factcheck.org,snopes,daily kaos,Du,Huffy,fightthesmears,and the newly arrived ATTACK WATCH!PBS,NPR and all of the other alphabet government run channels.Obama’s alinsky tactics have run dry.I think the tea party really freaked them out bad.

Think about how not long ago the tea party was racist nazi freak paid astroturfers.NOW they are sponsered with CNN for the debates.

“Watergate?

re you kidding? It was a deliberate act to arm terrorists on the border and in Mexico which resulted in the deaths of an as yet undetermined number of people, and then the covering up that the highest levels of our government may have been party to and approved it. If proved, it is called “high crimes and misdemeanors and warrents prison time for all involved. It has also been called an act of war against Mexico.

Ummmm.

I’m not the one that compared it to Watergate.

In fact, I was the one that ridiculed that juxtaposition.

I agree. I was speaking more toward the specific motivations for the reporting and escalation of the Watergate scandal by the media back in those days. They still were afraid of exposure and still hid their motives under a contrived cloak of ‘journalistic professionalism’.

It is my take that like these tapes, Issa and Grassley have much more that they know and they are going to string this out until heads do roll.
