It is highly likely these illegally traffiked firearms will find their way to gangs and used in more inner city violence/murders. This administration is enabling more black on black violent crime and placing the illegally obtained firearms directly into the hands of the felons.

I agree completely. Ironic that they wanted to use this to tighten our gun laws by breaking the law. Now I just hope the whole process and the devious reasoning behind it are exposed.

Holder is REFUSING to give them up. Are you even following along with the discussion?

Obama called Republicans the "enemies" of Latinos - his words not mine. Funny how the enemy of Latinos want to get to the bottom of a heinous act that let violent drug gangs get assault rifles that were used to kill Mexican Civilians. While Obama, their friend, is trying to cover it up.

The violence in parts of Mexico is so awful and horrible, it is a tragedy that if our government had a part in increasing it. In cities like Juarez, kids can't play outside, people go home and lock their door, people don't have a lot of hope and want change. Obama is standing in the way of hope and change. President Obama is ignoring Candidate Obama's words on transparency.

Can Obama make an executive-privilege claim stick? « Hot Air

Good article with sources showing why Obama cant win a legal argument for Executive Privilege. Im sure he knows it too, he's just trying to push off the damaging info until after the elections. He's already having a hard enough time as is given his failures and this would just compound it.

Well, you are assuming here that Congress will bring this forward and challenge it.
Knowing this Congress and their past, I highly doubt they will move forward.

And I think Obama/Holder are banking on it.

I do know he has to be explicit about which documents fall under EP and why. I don't believe he has done so yet, is that correct? That's what laid the path for the Oversight Committee to hold the vote on the contempt charges. Until Obama does that, the EP is not 'official'.

Obama does have a track record of trying to kick the can down the road or put off tough decisions until after the election. Remember the debt issue, Obama publicly said he wanted to handle it after the election. We need a real leader in DC. Hillary vs Romney should be the November General Election.

I don't like her but if that were the ticket, I would likely jump parties even though I don't have an official party.
