The Biggest Scandal In U.S. History

Democrats will never stop trying to take our guns away. They see something more lethal than a salad shooter and wet themselves.

Last month, the deputy managing editor for National Review, Robert VerBruggen, tried to dismiss the reason behind Fast and Furious as just a conspiracy theory with an accumulation of anecdotes or an overly costly scheme that just could not happen. This is too much of the old school tie stuff from two generations ago that has to stop.  VerBruggen comes off more like deputy Barny Fife. Now the rules are hard ball in Washington with a goal of centralized power with the collective over the individual. It is too old a tactic, but with this administration, it is the end really do justify its own means, no matter at what cost in treasure or, as happened, in lives. m/r
The reason behind this scandal was clear and obvious! Ann Coulter points it out in the bold type here:

Forget executive privilege, contempt of Congress, "fast and furious," how many documents the government has produced and who said what to whom on which date.

The Obama administration has almost certainly engaged in the most shockingly vile corruption scandal in the history of the country, not counting the results of Season Eight on "American Idol."

Administration officials intentionally put guns into the hands of Mexican drug cartels, so that when the guns taken from Mexican crime scenes turned out to be American guns, Democrats would have a reason to crack down on gun sellers in the United States.

Democrats will never stop trying to take our guns away. They see something more lethal than a salad shooter and wet themselves.

But since their party was thrown out of Congress for the first time in nearly half a century as a result of passing the 1994 "assault weapons ban," even liberals know they're going to need a really good argument to pass any limitation on guns ever again.

So it's curious that Democrats all started telling the same lie about guns as soon as Obama became president. In March 2009, Secretary of State Hillary Clinton announced to reporters on a trip to Mexico: "Since we know that the vast majority, 90 percent of that weaponry (used by Mexican drug cartels), comes from our country, we are going to try to stop it from getting there in the first place."

As she sentimentally elaborated on Fox News' Greta Van Susteren show: "The guns sold in the United States, which are illegal in Mexico, get smuggled and shipped across our border and arm these terrible drug-dealing criminals so that they can outgun these poor police officers along the border and elsewhere in Mexico."

Suddenly that 90 percent statistic was everywhere. It was like the statistic on women beaten by their husbands on Super Bowl Sunday.
