‘Wide Receiver’ CI: ‘It had nothing to do with Bush or even DOJ’

"The truth is that the first two AUSA's assigned to this case declined to prosecute it because ATF, ASAC, SAC and above, lied to him and told him that the guns were being followed on the other side of the border." [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner exclusive report takes on the latest bit of misdirection by the administration and its elite media co-conspirators.

Good Idea

Folks, it is time to dog Obama's ass in public about the Gunwalker cover-up. Any and every Threeper, Second Amendment activist, Tea Partier, and unaffiliated patriot who can get a piece of cardboard and a magic marker ought to line the bus route and the speech venues of Obama with signs that say "Holder lied and people died!" or whatever other sentiment you wish convey related to the Gunwalker Plot.

ATF ‘shakeup’: Meet the new bosses. Same as the old bosses…

What does the Chief Counsel's office have to say about part-timer Jones running the show and making sweeping reforms?[More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes all the "shakeup" did was move some pieces around on the table.

This Day in History: October 6

Major John Burrowes, 5th NJ, "The weather continues rainy and very disagreeable, but not to hinder our march. Leave Wyalusing at half after eight o'clock. On this days march we leave about 60 horses that were not able to come on. we leave them in the different pastures to recruit, so as they may be brought down in eight or ten days. Heretofore we have killed all that gave out, in number about 200 and lost as many more." [More]

"An Interesting Exercise in Cognitive Dissonance"

Special counsel for Gunwalker must be truly independent

While an independent counsel is needed, expecting a truly independent one to be appointed by a department that is up to its neck in stonewalling and cover-up, by a president whose own role and interests are appropriate for scrutiny, is at best problematic, and at worst a recipe for ensuring those responsible for “Project Gunwalker” are never held accountable for actions that have resulted in human deaths on both sides of the border. [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report cautions against settling for second best.

Good Question

So When Is Eric Holder Indicted? [Read]
Wrong answer:
House Judiciary Committee Chairman Lamar Smith, R-Texas, was sending a letter to President Obama on Tuesday arguing that Holder cannot investigate himself, and requesting the president instruct the Department of Justice to appoint a special counsel.
This Justice Department is in it up to its ears.

Re-up the damn Independent Counsel Act and leave it there for occasions such as this. Otherwise, why shouldn't we believe the fix is in?

Holder revelations contradict Obama’s ‘Gunwalker’ assertions

Did the president believe what he was saying when he said it?

Did Holder lie to his boss as well as to the House Committee on Oversight and Government reform?

Or might we have probable cause to doubt the implausible assertions coming from the Chief Executive? [More]
Today's Gun Rights Examiner report notes it's not just the Attorney General who appears to have a truth problem.

This Day in History: October 4

The riot, which began on October 4, 1779, after the British Army had abandoned the City of Philadelphia. Lawyer and Congressman James Wilson (1742-1798) had successfully defended at trial 23 people from property seizure and exile by the radical government of Pennsylvania. On October fourth, "A mob whipped up by liquor and the writings and speeches of Joseph Reed, President of Pennsylvania's Supreme Executive Council, marched on Congressman Wilson's home at Third and Walnut Streets. Wilson and 35 of his colleagues barricaded themselves in his home, later nicknamed Fort Wilson. In the fighting that ensued, six died, and 17 to 19 were wounded. [More]

Holder Lied, People Died

The man perjured himself in front of the House Committee on Oversight and Government Reform. That is an impeachable offense and a prosecutable offense. [More]
Wow.

So naturally the vapid ignoramus calling for double standards thinks the earth is flat and Christians predated the Greeks.

And naturally, that's what it takes to be an award winner and an influence on millions of useful idiots who eat this crap up.

Gee, I wonder what  regular viewers "think" about guns...?
