Anybody who can't see what has been going on with Fast and Furious must be someone who the DOJ has already moved up. Are there that many lawyers here who work for the DOJ?

Somehow what has happened in the DOJ from the beginning of the whistleblowers making themselves heard seems to be just what this author is saying is happening. Speaking of Kenneth Melson she says: He may have been "sick to his stomach," but the federal careerist apparently has no intention of quitting an administration with blood on its hands. And now he'll be advising others on how to track and handle evidence. Nice make-work if you can get it.

From the looks of the re-appointments that have been taking place it appears we have lots of those career government agents being reassigned, especially if they have any connection to the "gun-walking" fiasco.

And, of course, this is all just fine with the mainstream media and the Obama crowd. Whatever it takes.

I think this whole mess may very well be the undoing of Eric Holder and in a chain reaction the whole Obama administration. This little lady isn't going to back off soon and many others won't either. It is past time for Obama to remove Holder before he goes down with him.

The difference is that the media has been covering for Obama from the beginning. This would only be a national crisis if a republican was president. Of course, this sort of nonsense isn't something republicans would do; it's a program of leftist gun grabbers.

I sure hope you are right about who would and who wouldn't play a game like this one, but I am not sure. The coverup part is the part that I don't like and both parties are up to doing that.

There’s been only one visible Fast and Furious resignation: US Attorney Dennis Burke in Phoenix, who quietly stepped down on Tuesday. One of his last acts? Opposing the request of murdered Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry’s family to qualify as crime victims in a court case against the thug who bought the Fast and Furious guns used in Terry’s murder.


that part was just sad.

there is really no justice for americans anymore.

when you think about ----

the massive unchecked illegal immigration

obama's uncle's recent arrest after ignoring deportation orders for years (same as an aunt)

the flash mobs around the country

the beating death of kelly thomas in fullerton california, which was FILMED and shown on you tube

that death in california where nobody would help that poor suicidal guy and everybody watched it (for what like an hour or two?)but nobody helped-INCLUDING RESCUE PERSONNEL ON THE SCENE

the rewards for crooked bankers

the ridiculous wars which are randomly taking the lives of our soldiers (and others)- it looks like we got ourselves a minor fast and furious in libya now

the federal reserve depreciating our money without our permission or any actual uthority to do so (they are an international banking cartel, for crying out loud) -----

you realize that this is a country spiraling out of control and something needs to be done.

i see now that the banks are bulldozing houses, and i just wonder whose idea that was. could it be the same people who brought us cash for clunkers, destroying perfectly good used cars-which FORCED car prices up? just go out and destroy housing-that should do it!

hmmm.....

I wholeheartedly agree. If a Republican administration were behind this, it would be front page news and every day a Democrat congressperson would be on TV calling for an investigation. The leftist media in this country is the water boy for this administration and will do everything possible to cover for him. The media is just as corrupt, and as guilty, as our government.

Can you say "Iran-Contra"? That could have happened under a Republican administration, but "I don't remember".

Hopefully, the investigators go where the investigation takes them, and not the investigation goes where the investigators want it to go. The latter happens all too often when politicians try to get to the heart of a matter.

I think you are pretty sure that you remember that one but your wanting to use something like that to ok selling weapons to our Mexican enemies so they can kill our own people with them doesn't seem like anything other than "they did it so why shouldn't we". Many times excuses like that are only that, excuses, not reasons at all. Keep on trying because it seems you aren't alone.
