Ted Cruz takes the justice dept out to the woodshed over operation Choke Point.

BOOM: Ted Cruz Grills Justice Department for Targeting Gun Owners » Louder With Crowder

It's nice to see someone who doesn't put up with BS answers and question dodging. Of course these scumbags have filtered their actions and directives through so many levels that no one will personally be held responsible, but it sure is nice seeing one of them be made a fool of...Cruz is the man!

 

[GodFearinGunTotin]

Cruz doesn't take BS for an answer.

These traitors should be hung in the town square at high noon.

"We never said that the banks shouldn't do business with the firearms community. We just strongly suggested that, and then when they did what we were hoping they would did we didn't offer any clarification until Congress stepped in. It was clearly an honest mistake"

We are seeing an Administration that has been unable to use the political process to impose it's will on the population, so instead they are using the power of Federal bureaucracy to carry the torch. But instead of outright bans the tactics are more insidious, and designed to chill the exercise of a right - whether it is the right to keep and bear arms, the right of privacy, or the right to political activity.

It's almost like, "We never said you had to pay us to keep your store safe. We just strongly suggested it... "Sure is a nice place you have here. Be a shame if anything happened to it." Oh wait. That's not almost like it... that's exactly what happened.

And I agree. The traitors should be hanged. Part of me wants to follow INGO tradition and begin dreaming up worse things like leaving them swinging from the rope for the vultures to pick at their maggot-ridden corpses, since that would be poetic justice... but y'know? There're some things even a vulture won't do.

Blessings,
Bill

A pity that this clarity of thinking and the resolve to punish the wrongdoers is almost non-existent in D.C.

Unlike an actual trip to the woodshed this will have no effect on their conduct going forward.

Unfortunately you are probably correct but ya gotta love that Cruz is trying.

I sense that Dems have lost any high ground they might have employed against the next GOP administration, through their promiscuous use of extra-Constitutional chicanery. They will come to regret the last eight years once the tables are turned.

All it takes is a Republican president with cojones, as Congress and most of the States are Red, to drive 'progressivism' from the political stage.

True, besides, that is a terrible thing to wish on a vulture who never did anything to us!

High ground be damned. Do you honestly believe that if the next Republican Administration acts in a similar manner to this Administration that they will be given as much political cover by sympathetic media outlets?

Bush was decried as a low IQ war monger, and his mistakes constantly highlighted along with cries of "war criminal" for two legally declared wars. Our current POTUS has been allowed to (and excused) for lying to the American public (if you like your doctor, not one penny more, red line, etc.), his gaffes have been covered up as understandable exhaustion (his claim to have visited 57 States), and he has gotten us into two more military conflicts without a vote by Congress as well as the massive expansion of the use of drones.

No they won't. But by now the GOP should realize the MSM and harpies in academia and 'community organizing' do NOT represent the will of the American people.

Frankly if the GOP called the MSM bluff, I think the whole house of cards would collapse in a moment.

Other than faking out the American public during elections, leadership in this country doesn't care what the people believe.
