Examiner ^ | Oct 7, 2011 | David Codrea ,

Posted on 10/07/2011 2:54:16 PM PDT by thouworm

Because some of the new reports have created no small amount of speculation about Bush administration involvement in what some are representing to be an identical enterprise, Detty felt compelled to offer clarification, and has consented to sharing his observations:

Detty’s coming forward now with this revelation should help those interested in preventing the lies from being compounded and conflated.

Fat chance. The lying clowns in the media have no intention of providing inconvenient truths.

I find the Examiner article very confusing without enough context. For instance, who is an “AUSA”? Secondly, In the quotation it states “There you have it.” So what do you supposedly have? Where were 3 years of resources spent and why?

There may be substance here, but this commentator didn’t convey the information very well. Looks more like an amateur blog than a news outlet.

Could have been written better, but David Codea has been on the front lines (one of about 3 or 4 reporters) of Fast and Furious with much breaking news and in-depth reporting.

MeataMachine may be offline for Yom Kippur, so I am pinging to what I can see of her ping list. I know I must be missing many others. She will be back online in “24 hrs.”

AUSA = Assistant US Attorney.

The article is very confusing.

Pathetic. Everytime this corrupt administration is caught lying, cheating or stealing, ‘blame Bush’ is always their contemptible response.

Mark my words and mark them well: sooner than later, Barry's ability to shift the blame is going to run out. He and the other conspirators will be asked the question under oath — “What do you know about Fast & Furious and when did you know it?” There will then be a stampede to see who can cut the best deals to avoid long prison terms. As for Zer0, I recommend 25 to life and he can share a cell with Eric Holder.
