I don’t know if it’s still there but there was video at the DOJ website of Holder speaking to Mexicans about F&F. He has known for a long time. It might be breaking news to Fox but it isn’t breaking to FR.

[Osage Orange]

If Holder get's "arrested".....I will walk naked thru the most tick and chigger infested field I know of.

Period.

I think my bet is safe..........

[oh8eleven]

Holder testified that he had only heard of the operation "recently."
WHAT did he know, and WHEN did he know it?
And we're not stopping with Holder - impeach and imprison every commie-rat b@stard in this entire administration.

Good catch. Why don’t you forward this to Issa and Grassly?

Ruh roh ping-— Holder caught in a bald-face lie? The Fox article is not out yet.

MM: re: Tutstar’s question. Is that video Tutstar is referring to about Holder talking about GunRUNNER, not GunWalker?

“I don’t know if it’s still there but there was video at the DOJ website of Holder speaking to Mexicans about F&F. He has known for a long time. It might be breaking news to Fox but it isn’t breaking to FR.”
~~~~~~~~~~

We know he has known-—up to his eyeballs-—but will this be the smoking gun?

[Verginius Rufus]

Bill Clinton established that it’s OK for Democrats to commit perjury...and he’s white. Holder is doubly immune because of his race.

[tutstar]

I found the info, no video though. Maybe my memory was wrong about it being a video, have read so much about this topic it’s hard to know for sure.

Attorney General Eric Holder at the Mexico/United States Arms Trafficking Conference
CUERNAVACA, MEXICO ~ Thursday, April 2, 2009

Remarks as prepared for delivery.

First, let me express my thanks to Attorney General Medina Mora and Secretary of Government Gomez Mont for making this conference possible.

This is my first trip to another country as Attorney General. I wanted to come to Mexico to deliver a single message: We stand shoulder-to-shoulder with you in this fight against the narcotics cartels. The United States shares responsibility for this problem and we will take responsibility by joining our Mexican counterparts in every step of this fight.

And, together, we will win – thanks in large part to the courage of my Mexican colleagues here today, who are on the front lines every day, and with whom I am proud to collaborate.

The topic that has been addressed over the past two days could not be more important – the development of an arms trafficking prosecution and enforcement strategy on both sides of the border.

I would like to thank the Mexican and U.S. experts who have worked so hard on this issue. On our side, Secretary Napolitano and I are committed to putting the resources in place to increase our attack on arms trafficking into Mexico.

Last week, our administration launched a major new effort to break the backs of the cartels. My department is committing 100 new ATF personnel to the Southwest border in the next 100 days to supplement our ongoing Project Gunrunner, DEA is adding 16 new positions on the border, as well as mobile enforcement teams, and the FBI is creating a new intelligence group focusing on kidnapping and extortion. DHS is making similar commitments, as Secretary Napolitano will detail.

But as today’s conference has emphasized, the problem of arms trafficking will not be stopped at the border alone. Rather, as our experts emphasized, this is a problem that must be met as part of a comprehensive attack against the cartels – an attack in depth, on both sides of the border, that focuses on the leadership and assets of the cartel. This is the type of full-bore, prosecution-driven approach that the U.S. Department of Justice took to dismantle La Cosa Nostra – once the most powerful organized crime group operating in the United States.
With partners like those we have here today, I am confident that together, we will defeat these narcotics cartels in exactly the same way. I am proud to stand with you, and to join you in this fight. Thank you again for inviting me here.

Quiero que el pueblo Mexicano sepa que mi nación está con ustedes en la lucha contra los narcotraficantes.

México y los Estados Unidos comparten mas que una frontera—compartimos cultura, sangre e intereses comunes. Somos hermanos unidos contra una batalla que ganaremos.

Tenemos que aprender de uno a otro, trabajar juntos y luchar juntos. Si hacemos estas cosas, si nos dedicamos juntos a esta lucha, no tengo duda que tendremos éxito.

Don’t throw him in jail until BO is out of office. He’ll just get pardoned.

Input needed. Have now started a new ping list called BORDER WARS since so many of these stories are starting to intersect and overlap. I would like to keep the Gunwalker threads separate. Let me know if you want on the Border Wars list. It will NOT be the same as Gunwalker, though they might overlap occasionally. Please ping me to any articles you think fit in this catagory. Thank you.

DO IT!

WHAT did he know, and WHEN did he know it?

And we're not stopping with Holder - impeach and imprison every commie-rat b@stard in this entire administration.

--------------------------

Zer0 wanted American guns planted in Mexico in order to demonize American firearms dealers and gun owners.

A cache of assault weapons lost in the ATF's gun-trafficking surveillance operation in Phoenix turned up in El Paso, where they were being stored for shipment to Mexico.

Considering the level of stupidity on display at ATF, the agency might want to consider an insanity defense.

In a sane world, Congress would impeach at least the Department heads involved and depending on his involvement take impeachment action against the President himself. Instead, he's running for re-election.

The piss-stream media ignores corruption story after corruption story on a daily basis now. Sad real sad. Nothing to see here, folks, just move along. Ignore the dead bodies.

Your tax dollars at work under the Obama administration... It's fully paid for.

Have another muffin Eric.
