    Can you imagine the humiliation her and Bill would have if she got thrown on the ticket with Obama in free fall and she ends up losing a 2nd time! OMG. All hell would break loose! LOL.

    The fatal scandal has already occured but the MSM refuses to pursue it.

    Fast and Furious.

    If this were a conservative administration Holder would have been dismissed from his position and Obama would have received a subpoena for deposition regarding his role.

    AP Exclusive: Second Bush-era gun-smuggling probe


    WASHINGTON (AP) — A second Bush administration gun-trafficking investigation has surfaced using the same controversial tactic for which congressional Republicans have been criticizing the Obama administration.

    The tactic, called "gun walking," is already under investigation by the Justice Department's inspector general and by congressional Republicans, who have criticized the administration of Democratic President Barack Obama for letting it happen in an operation called "Fast and Furious".

    Emails obtained by The Associated Press show how in a 2007 investigation in Phoenix, agents of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives — depending on Mexican authorities to follow up — let guns "walk" across the border in an effort to identify higher-ups in gun networks. Justice Department policy has long required that illicit arms shipments be intercepted whenever possible.

    The 2007 probe operated out of the same ATF office that more recently ran the flawed Operation Fast and Furious. Both probes resulted in weapons disappearing across the border into Mexico, according to the emails. The 2007 probe was relatively small — involving over 200 weapons, just a dozen of which ended up in Mexico as a result of gun-walking. Fast and Furious involved over 2,000 weapons, some 1,400 of which have not been recovered and an unknown number of which wound up in Mexico.

    Earlier this month, it was disclosed that the gun-walking tactic didn't begin under Obama, but was also used in 2006 under his predecessor, George W. Bush. The probe, Operation Wide Receiver, was carried out by ATF's Tucson, Ariz., office and resulted in hundreds of guns being transferred to suspected arms traffickers.

    So this literally looks like, yet again Obama took a retarded program by Bush, (200 guns) and made it ten times worse (2000 guns + a border patrol agent dead) Yet you support Obama and hate Bush?!? :confused:

  6. I doubt Obama or Bush really pays much attention to every investigation The ATF,FBI,DEA,Secret Service etc does

    I don't consider it a major fuck up by either and only mention that Bush started it because republicans keep placing the blame on Obama.

    That i can actually agree on, as the two seem to be the most incompetent in history, and there really doesnt seem to be much of a difference between the 2, i think that for the most part the strings are being pulled behind the scenes with Obama/Bush, a.k.a. Obamush. and the bureaucracies are already in place.... We need someone who will actually change them.

  8. All this talk, and for what, to watch Obama win again. The metrics are against the GOP, Biden or Hillary.

    The electoral math is just not there. The GOP has hitched it's wagon to the white (Dodge Ram, deer hunting) male vote, and even if ALL of them vote. They still lose.

    And that is precisely the message that GOP is sending out. Thank you for putting that in very clear and concise form, Lucrum.:D
