And once again your defense of Obama is that "everybody does it". LOL.

Now back to the topic. Your attempt at deflection was a nice try.

It goes to show that a large chunk of America is still led around by the nose by the MSM. If the MSM doesn't say it, they don't know it.

I hope that Romney will fill the void by running some ads on this. In fact he could turn one of Obama's own guns against him (pun intended) by running Spanish language ads featuring some of the statements about F&F from Mex. atty gen Marisela Morales.

Bigger than the silence from the media is the silence from Congress.

If every administration has leaks, then what is the point of outrage? It's not unique to this administration, and it wasn't Obama personally. Just another programmed talking point.

We have some very big scandals that have been brewing and you hardly hear a peep from the liberals or the media on them.

For 18 months Holder has refused to provide documents requested. He's already been caught in a lie and now faces possible contempt.
A US border patrol agent was killed by weapons used in this operation.

Some in the military are calling the leaks from this Administration some of the worst in decades. Highly classified leaks going to a NYT reporter putting peoples lives at risk, embarrassing the country, and hurting our allies. Based off some of the info, these leaks had to have come from near the top of this Administration.
After finally getting asked about this on National tv, Obama has Holder appoint to people to investigate. One being an Obama supporter and donor.

Holder has been asked to resign but refuses. Take note that both Biden and Obama among many others were among those who have called for special INDEPENDENT Prosecutors in the past, but seemingly dont have a problem now with un-independent ones.

These are huge deals. Not one of you people can tell me honestly that if this were a GOP administration, that you wouldnt be screaming about it. THe media would be shouting this from all forms of media for days and weeks until every single person in the country and world knew about it. Yet look now, that a Democrat administration, being involved in possibly one of the biggest scandals in years, and look how silent they are. Look how much they dont care.

This is damn near treason not only of the members in congress/senate that refuse to demand answers, but in the media as well. They should be ashamed of themselves. And you liberals out there in la la land, purposely ignoring these stories, all because you dont want to hurt Obama's re-election chances (which is the same reason the media is playing so nice with it)...you are as despicable and pathetic and cowardly as the media and the rest of them are.

Are you fools just hoping this will go away? You just hoping that by not shining a big enough light on it, that people wont hear about it?
Where? Same place it is for "Operation Gunrunner".

Are you deliberately obtuse or are you 12 years old?

If you somehow claim no White House has leaked before this one, then you have a serious case of cranial-rectal fusion.
