Come on, guys. This is the most transparent Administration in history. We know this because they tell us it's so.

I gotta say that was a most serious tongue lashing. My ears hurt just reading it and it was not directed at me. Now lets see if it is followed up by actions. Stern talk is good, but actually dealing with corruption is better.

The plot thickens........
Feds Refuse to Explain How Convicted Felons Bought Guns in 'Operation Fast and Furious'
http://www.foxnews.com/politics/2011/07 ... z1T8Vy5Rzm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

...two of the 20 defendants indicted in the Fast and Furious investigation have felony convictions and criminal backgrounds that experts say, at the very least, should have delayed them buying a single firearm...

...ATF Special Agent John Dodson, who worked the Fast and Furious investigation, said NICS officials called the ATF in Phoenix whenever their suspects tried to buy a gun. That conversation typically led to a green light for the buyers, when it should have stopped them.

It is the duty of every American who loves his country to make sure that this story does not get buried by the legacy media. We ought to be writing letters to the editors, demanding to see coverage of what is one of the biggest corruption scandals in national history. Legacy media's timid coverage of it is a disgrace.

heh heh, you think ATF/DOJ are covering .... they only sold 2,000 or so to straw buyers

The real "lets not talk about this" is the State Dept selling more guns, grenades, night vision stuff, full auto weapons, anti-aircraft stuff, biological stuff, and 1 "nuclear something" ..... "government sold", "legally exported" and ending up in hands of Zeta drug cartel.

Reports now seem to say that the Feds were running guns both to the Zetas and to the Sinaloa cartels. Makes me wonder if someone was hoping they would finish each other off. Some of the cartels have been fighting each other for turf for a while now. :confused5
