I really hope something actually comes out of all this beyond a couple of lambs being thrown under the bus.

When I read the announcement I thought the same thing that the article is saying. It would be easy to say he knew there was the program, but was not involved in the projects. Then shift all of the blame to the people directly overseeing the program and projects. I really hope we get more info to pin this on holder and Obama, but i think we have a ways to go before that happens.

The thing that gives me hope is the fact that no one has really been thrown under the bus yet. If they could easily pin it on someone I think they would have by now.

Stimulus money went to fund these operations.....

I guess it was for shovel ready jobs afterall........ Shoot, Shove them into a hole in the desert and Shovel the dirt on top of them.

Holder has been barely hanging in there for months. I wouldn't be surprised if he doesn't resign soon for family reasons or some such nonsense. He has been kind of a PITA for Oblama for a while now. None of the crap he wanted to do has ever been mainstream with the American people and the DOJ in particular has been a joke under his watch. He won't be credited with guilt but will go none the less. JMO......

Interesting statement he made at the end of the clip,


"ATF is doubling it's presence in Mexico (snip) specifically to Facilitate gun tracing activities which targets illegal weapons activities in the United States"

Sounds like it was a known practice and approved. Or was that someone hacking the Teleprompter script?
