    The rule is, if something happens under Obama, it’s just misunderstood, but if it happened under Bush then it’s evil!

    Scooter Libby is doing hard time for less. Holder lied to Congress. He needs to do prison time for this. And that is the LEAST of the crimes he has committed in this evil scheme.

    Too bad the Republicans can’t remember ‘Operation Wide Receiver’. Oh, wait – that was when Bush was in office. I guess selling guns to criminals is OK if you are a Republican and a member of the NRA

    Man, if only Obama had sold weapons to the Iranians, then used the profits to circumvent congress and give the money to the drug dealers, then it would be alright. Well, that, and if they were fighting commies

    Whether the plan was right or wrong is not what bothers me. What bothers me is the fact that Holder purjored himself before congress. It’s the same argument I had against Clinton: You lied on the stand. If it was anyone who didn’t work for the highest office in the land, they’d be doing prison time. I know if anyone on these boards lied under oath, they’d be doing time.

    And how well did that work for you when we stopped government functioning to witch-hunt Clinton?

    And the proof of Holder’s knowledge is where?

    documents show the National Drug Intelligence Center began briefing Holder about Fast and Furious “starting, at the latest, on July 5, 2010.” Memos to Holder mentioned the operation by name and detailed guns being trafficked to Mexico

    also bush followed guns movement and caught higher ups which there was to following operation in f & f

    Meese, Ashcroft, Gonzales- drug dealer, curtain queen, nut case. While “F & F” was just one more idiot operation, put together by some long in place appointees, and “careerists” who shouldn’t have been, it isn’t just the feds. The “mentality” of authoritarians in law enforcement is OFTEN problematic, like the “war on drugs” that this farce is just one more small part of. “Stings” like the Portland Christmas bomber, F & F, or recent one with the nut building R/C aircraft, often fail, because they are planned at lower levels by idiots, who have poor supervisors, and it goes up. However BIG stings, like Noriega, sometimes start at the top and work down.

    Just more proof stupidity isn’t owned by anyone.

    I am fairly certain that this was sarcasm.

    So you believe that representatives of the people duly elected to the office of Senate have no – and deserve no – authority to balance the Executive Branch?? Is this also your opinion of the Watergate scandal when President Nixon faced impeachment for covering up an ill-advised attempt to make phone recordings of the Democrats rewarding donors with prostitutes?I guess you would have sided with some early Americans who tried to establish a monarchy to replace King George III with King George Washington.
