Now it's a conspiracy theory? Are you saying that article I posted was a lie? That nobody knew anything about all this but two guys? They procured and hauled all those weapons down to mehico on their own without anyone knowing? Are you really this dense?

Custer had Indian scouts and I am not related to Elizabeth Warren.

Of course not. The pair were in senior agents with a lot of control over their underlings. And they had lots and lots of junior agents under them.

They didn't have to procure those weapons personally, any more than a General has to go out and purchase arms for his troops personally and then hand them out all by himself.

No, I'm not dense. But, from this response, you seem to fit that particular shoe quite nicely.

Your response to what was done is two flunkies were fired and that is just fine by you. I guess if your family member was killed by this mess you would feel the same way.

How do you know I don't have any family that was killed in the war on drugs?
Don't project your own opinions on me or anyone else, Chief.

What more do you want? Do you honestly believe that anyone thinks Fast & Furious was a GOOD plan? Do you actually think that anyone approves of it's outcome?

if you do, you need to change meds.
The two idiots who cooked F&F up implemented it without notifying their superiors, and they have paid the price for their incompetence. Maybe you think that we should do like the Chinese, and put a bullet in the back of any public employee's head who screws up, but I don't. As rotten an idea as F&F turned out to be, those guys were doing their job, no matter how wrongly and poorly they did it.

If we go to shooting underlings, how long will it be before we start shooting their bosses? Then how long before we start shooting those who made the laws that started it all?

Do you want to live in that kind of society?
Hey, I know who those two IDIOTS are !!!! Barack Obama & Eric Holder, right ?

I don't know about your meds, but, I think the last part of your post has great merit. You know- If we go
to shooting underlings---------

I figured that Obama would get blamed for this and it only took two pages If you know anything about federal agencies they all do not report straight to the top. The Sec of Veterans Affairs has absolutely no knowledge of nurse in bum***** Idaho giving water down drugs to veterans.

As a lifelong Idahoan, I can attest to that truth, even though I've never been to the tiny town of Bum****. But I'm sure that Bum**** has a few veterans living there. There are vets in every remote hamlet of Idaho.

I just looked at my Idaho map to see where Bum**** is, but I couldn't find it anywhere! If you do know where it's located, I'll be sure to check it out in person and talk to the vets. Idaho is the place a lot of vets come to get away from all the other towns all over the country that share that particular name, so I suspect that our Bum**** is better than yours.

Sorry, I did not mean to offend by I was trying to make a point regarding a remote area and Idaho is easy to spell

Oh, I never thought you were! The differences between you and her are very obvious.

And I would never insult my native American friends by including you in their number.
