Obama exerts executive privilege over Fast/Furious documents

It would benefit the citizens, we would/will get rid of some of the garbage in DC.

That should bring you great comfort - he thought he could make citizens buy products of the federal government's choosing too and it's a pretty safe bet at this point that this supposed scholar of the Constitution has absolutely no idea about legal versus illegal, constitutional versus unconstitutional. The folks who paid for his education, so he could be where he is today, should demand their money back.

That's the plan, to remove as many of the Republican's in congress as necessary to get some actual work done.

You know what they say about plans archer - they never survive first contact with the enemy. Keep planning - if 2010 was any indication of "progressive" planning skills, there might yet be hope for this union of ours.

When Issa and his tea-fascist goons pull in EVERY person involved with "Operation Wide Receiver" and put THEM under oath, as well as the "Fast & Furious" participants, THEN we'll know it's not just a witch-hunt... But since we know he won't, it's just more "Get-Obama" theater.

The more of the GOP garbage we get rid of, the more likely we are to get something done.

Why is it, precisely, that you are unable to distinguish between a joint operation between the governments of this union and Mexico in which close surveillance was maintained on those involved while they were operating inside the borders of the union and the government of the foreign nation was kept in the loop at all times relevant to when the guns were being transported between here and there and one in which no such surveillance was maintained, no permission granted by the government of a foreign nation and no knowledge of what was happening was being shared? Are you really so dense as to be unable to understand how the two are different and how one does involve the relationship with a foreign government that falls within the sphere of executive privilege and the other does not?

Think the damming document is an admission by both Holder and Obama that the ullterior motive of Fast & Furious was gun control?

NRA Claims "Massive Obama Conspiracy" NOT to ban guns...

No facts... No proof... Just the usual tin-foil hat bat-sh*t-crazy conspiracy bullsh*t... And somehow(?) Holder is responsible for letting guns go over the border to do bad things to "enrage the public" so they can make war on the Second Amendment and take away people's guns...

You CAN NOT MAKE THIS SH*T UP!!

And funny thing... All of the gullible GOP guys on the committee are speaking the SAME NRA talking points within days... Hmmmmm.

You're going to need a LOT more tin-foil...

That was the case from 2008 - 2010; and what was the result? What 'actual work' was accomplished?
