Good point. It should take a Special Prosecutor at least a year to gather all the information and return an indictment and another 4 to 6 months to set a trail date.
If the slimeball knows he’s going to get a LONG term in the “big house” and no pardon from O’Dumbo he may be willing to spill the beans on Obama and others to save his arse.

There are only a few of us here with the wisdom not to get excited about this.

Did that special prosecutor Ken Starr bust the Clinton crime cartel?

NO!

No, you can only be punished for statements made under oath. Is there any doubt that Obastard isn’t in this up to his eyeballs?

Those remarks, IIRC, were in connection to GunRUNNER, not Gunwalker-—although Holder, being the weasel that he is, most certainly knew about GunWalker from the beginning.

this latest release tonight may be the smoking gun. Holder’s unofficial response: He gets so many memos. He doesn’t always read them all. lol

Gunrunner was the precursor program to the gunwalker scandal. Gunrunner was started by President Bush, and was legitimate, though it failed to find any “Big dog” operators running guns because there were none, just a fair number of small individual operations. The average “time to crime” of guns traced from Mexico was 14 *years*. It is pretty clear from that number that there has been a consistent slow movement of guns to Mexico for decades. Jose hears from uncle Juan that he needs a pistola. He can't get a permit in Mexico because he doesn't have the bribe money. Jose finds one in the U.S. and next trip back to Mexico delivers it to Juan. That sort of operation, combined with the guns from U.S. military assistance programs in Mexico and Central American countries, is the source of most Mexican guns.

Gunwalker was instituted in 2009, it appears, to create the “Big dog” operators.

>Holder has already stated publicly that he was NOT INFORMED.

Can he be arrested for perjury, if he makes false PUBLIC statements, or only if made “under Oathe”?

Great example of the Head of “Justice Department of the United States”<

He made his statements under oath though to Issa in a congressional hearing. he lied when he said that he had found out only a few weeks before he was being questioned.

Thing is that he is now back tracking and saying he didn’t understand the question.

The ones he made publicly he can not be arrested for though in answer to your question.

Thanks for the ping, MestaMachine.

If it had been GW Bush who was POTUS while these high crimes were going down, it would be front-page coverage every day of the week.

Good thing that Al Gore invented that internet thingy, eh?
