— andy Eric Holder: The GOP is being so mean about Operation Fast and Furious. Can't we just drop this thing and all get along. Look ... squirrel!
Darrell Issa: Please, continue, you were saying something about best intentions. What's the matter? Oh, you were finished! Well, allow me to retort.
Dear Attorney General Holder:From the beginning of the congressional investigation into Operation Fast and Furious, the Department of Justice has offered a roving set of ever-changing explanations to justify its involvement in this reckless and deadly program. These defenses have been aimed at undermining the investigation. From the start, the Department insisted that no wrongdoing had occurred and asked Senator Grassley and me to defer our oversight responsibilities over its concerns about our purported interference with its ongoing criminal investigations. Additionally, the Department steadfastly insisted that gunwalking did not occur.
Once documentary and testimonial evidence strongly contradicted these claims, the Department attempted to limit the fallout from Fast and Furious to the Phoenix Field Division of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms, and Explosives (ATF). When that effort also proved unsuccessful, the Department next argued that Fast and Furious resided only within ATF itself, before eventually also assigning blame to the U.S. Attorney's Office in Arizona. All of these efforts were designed to circle the wagons around DOJ and its political appointees.
To that end, just last month, you claimed that Fast and Furious did not reach the upper levels of the Justice Department. Documents discovered through the course of the investigation, however, have proved each and every one of these claims advanced by the Department to be untrue. It appears your latest defense has reached a new low. Incredibly, in your letter from Friday you now claim that you were unaware of Fast and Furious because your staff failed to inform you of information contained in memos that were specifically addressed to you. At best, this indicates negligence and incompetence in your duties as Attorney General. At worst, it places your credibility into serious doubt. (emphasis added)
Read the whole, beautiful thing. It's a long-form version of "you lie!"

Look-
Alberto Gonzalez fired some US attys, as was his privilige. He had to quit, because he worked for a Republican administration.
Eric Holder allowed Mexican drug cartels to acquire automatic weapons from US gun dealers. He will be just fine, because he works for a Democrat administration.
This is the world we live in. A world where the press has abandoned its reponsibility to report impartially, and instead has become a propaganda arm of the Democratic Party.

>And hundreds of people will still be dead either by the malicious design of this administration or through abject incompetence.
I'm telling you, this doesn't matter to the media. Their only storyline is to discredit the GOP candidates and insure Obama's re-election. Nothing else matters to them. Politics trumps everything for these people, whether it's dead USBP agents, 10% unemployment, trillions of dollars disappeared from the Treasury, or gross malfeasance of office by their hand-picked President.

They are promoting cult behavior at these 'occupy' events. This is not spontaneous, it is very organized as these videos show. I'm curious to see how they decide to use these dopes next summer, interesting times, and all that...

"You lying sack of shit"
Note the careful phrasing of Holder's comment about how he doesn't think the documentation will support the charge. Note that he didn't say "The charge is false" - he didn't deny he did it - he just thinks no one will be able to prove he did it.
Holder owns Fast and Furious, and Obama owns Holder.
By the way, Fast and Furious wasn't flawed - it was designed to do exactly what it did do; arm the cartels - it couldn't have done anything else.

I've always thought the idea was to track where the guns were going. So we sold Mexican drug lords guns, and would you believe it, those guns went right on down to Mexico.
Still, job well done.

Equality run amok? I wonder where these hippies draw the line at addressing a crowd? Two or three people can be addressed by a peer but ten or eleven is out of the question? Or is it just based on the proposed speaker's skin color? The guy with the bullhorn was whiter than white. As was the crowd. Which was also creepy as hell repeating everything the bullhorn guy said. They reminded me of the subway people in Beneath the Planet of the Apes. But those guys let a black guy talk.

If Holder is charged and found guilty and SCOAMF pardons him its over for O. He will be toast. Nixon was a piker compared to this gang. I asked this a while back. Who will be the "John Dean" of the SCOAMF's administration? There will be one, I have no doubt.
Posted by: mpfs, TPT at October 10, 2011 10:37 AM (iYbLN)
I personally believe that he still has a job because he knows that SCOAMF was in on this from the beginning. They wanted and still want gun control. He told Mrs. Brady that in public. What other "behind the scenes" shit was he referring to?
So I'm a conspiracy nut. I can live with that.

That's the problem- the press never had that responsibility. I'm not sure where or why that myth sprung up (I'm aware of roughly when), but for much of American History everyone knew that whatever newspaper or broadsheet they were reading had an agenda, and justly considered the source.
The press didn't abandon it's responsibility; we, the people (collectively) abandoned ours.

2.26%, not points. Haven't looked at the VIX lately but it must be awfully high. We're just whipping back and forth lately, which can only mean we're on the edge of the next big fall.
I called my broker on Friday about an issue that I noticed when I finally stopped eyeing my quarterly statement like it was going to bite me and looked at it. First thing he said, before I could even finish saying "So I finally read my quarterly" was "Don't freak out, don't panic sell, this won't go on forever". I'll admit, I started laughing. Not so amusingly I may have accidentally created a huge, huge mess in the office. Not my doing but there is some Obamalevel competence going on that I stumbled across. Um yay me?

"The latest issue of the leading industry trade journal Photovoltaics International, asks the question: "What is the real quality of the products I am buying?"
Short answer: Nobody knows. In Italy last year, "they discovered that after one year in the field, over 90% of the (solar panels) from a one megawatt project began to delaminate and ended up on the ground."
So that would be bad, right?

True, but not really the point. The point of my comment was the people believed the medias claims of "balance" and "unbiased reporting," while the reporting was nothing of the sort. They never subjected the TV networks (or even the radio networks before TV) to the kind of scrutiny they should have.
So the liberals were able to propagate political propaganda (I couldn't resist the alliteration) without any significant criticism or balance for the better part of 50 years.

If I were this dude I would have a remote starter installed in my car and stay the fuck away from Fort Marcy Park.

Update: he's dressed as a worthless hippie with a graduate degree from an East Coast school. Stone him if you see him!
We have reports that he's wearing skinny jeans, a knit cap and skate shoes. He has an iphone. He may also be unshaven.

Yup. This is tantamount to an act of war against Mexico. I think it's interesting that it's we racist teabaggers who give a shit that 200+ Mexicans are dead.

Has anyone noticed that we're not seeing nearly as many Mexican massacre stories since F&F broke? And we all know that shit is still happening.

Unfortunately, it got lost in all the other noise- I hadn't noticed. Now that you point it out, however, I must admit you're right. I wonder if we could track the coverage of the worst of the Cartel violence to the time just before F&F through, oh, say August this year. I bet they'd line up pretty well.

Of course they are; its their skill set after all.

Because they're not here voting a straight Democratic ticket - of course.

Fast and Furious - no big deal - perjury charges against the Attorney General of the United States - that and maybe 200 counts of depraved indifference felony murder - tops. Oh yeah and maybe a capital case against him for the death of a Federal agent. Like I said - no big deal.
Its not like Watergate when the Rethuglicans broke into Democratic party head quarters and planted surveillance gear after all. That was such a big deal - it brought down a president.
Of course there are a lot more people dead and a thousand or so guns still floating around on the streets from this one. So we might have some minor PR problems here.
Rethuglicans - you kill a couple of hundred men women and children - in Mexico for crying out loud - and they go all Waa Waa likes its as big a scandal as Watergate was. They need to get a sense of proportion.
