"Issa and his idiot cronies never gave a damn about this when all that was happening was that thousands of Mexicans were being killed with guns from our country." So, F&F WAS about making the case for a new AWB.

Long-hidden email shows AG Eric Holder slamming top congressional inquisitor Darrell Issa 'and his idiot cronies' over Operation Fast and Furious gun scandal.
Issa's investigation has uncovered evidence that a year before Holder's angry email outburst, some in the ATF sought to use the Fast and Furious program to build a case for a new gun control measure known inside the government as 'Demand Letter 3.'
That plan was drawn up in order to use sales records from Fast and Furious-related purchases of large numbers of so-called 'long guns' – rifles and shotguns designed to be fired while braced against the shooter's shoulder – to force gun dealers everywhere to report the details of more of their sales to the federal government.
It was so named because it was the third proposed regulation of its kind,
In one July 14, 2010 email the Oversight Committee has released, ATF Field Operations Assistant Director Mark Chait asked Bill Newell, ATF's Phoenix Special Agent in Charge, for help leveraging data from Fast and Furious.
'Bill – can you see if these guns were all purchased from the same FFL and at one time?' he asked. 'We are looking at anecdotal cases to support a demand letter on long gun multiple sales.'

So Holder perjured himself when he said he only learned of F&F a few weeks ahead of his Congressional testimony.

Will the Republican-controlled Congress have the balls to throw the WPOS into federal slam? Inquiring minds want to know.

If that doesn't happen, I want all those GOP apologists who continually tell us about our "wasted votes" to STFU -- forever.

Not to be overly smarmy on this one, but what exactly do you think the Issa and other members of the stupid party (dead elephants) are going to do with all they have uncovered, now that they have control of the senate?

Prosecute Holder for high crimes?

Indict Obama?

Run former sec. of state, St. Hillary through the ringing to blemish he standing prior to announcing her candidacy for '16?

Here is my answer;
NOT A FUCKING THING!

Back to reloading and stocking up. This will not end well.

Mike, this is your current entry so I will use it to inform you of what I just stumbled upon. My local Walmart (in SC, but I have to assume it is not a local occurrence) has no .22 ammo on their shelves but admitted to me that there is a large quantity sitting (for the past month) in the back room waiting for Black Friday. Am I the only one that thinks this is wrong? I think it's one thing to use price cutting on a readily available item to drive traffic but to do so on something that is unavailable stinks of corporate greed and manipulation.

What a reprehensible piece of slime. Nobody outside a handful of Justice and State folks even knew about it until Terry was killed.

Never forget that holder knew that at some point these documents would be read by the opposition and eventually the population.

Part of these statements are to ameliorate criminality and treason, by attempting to portray those actions as serving the public good, and once again presenting the Oops defence.

Eric the red is a Marxist and so are the people working with and for him. Everything they say and do are lies because they have no other means to gain and keep power. The media are senior partners in this endeavour.

Obviously once the truth becomes known, the result aren't very good for them. Tuesday was part of that revelation, as well and the fact that Eric the red resigning before the election, indicate to me that they have a well considered plan and are still following it.

This isn't over, unless the republicans revert to form, and allow it to be. I already know which bet I would be placing. There are places upon the scaffold for them as well. Treason is still treason, no matter what party you claim.
