More Fast and Furious guns surface at crimes in Mexico

[Jerchap2]

I this had happened under Bush, he would have been arrested, jailed, publicly flogged, publicly castrated, executed and dismembered, for all to see on C-SPAN. The same media ignores it under their demon messiah. I have no civil words. But I do have a face and a mood:

More Fast and Furious guns surface at crimes in Mexico - CBS News

I do have to say that I am surprised that this report came from, of all places, CBS.

I heard something today from someone saying the reason Issa quit going after this admin about F&F is because the gun that killed the border patrol man (Terry was his name?) had serial numbers that matched one given away under the Bush admin. Haven't verified it yet but ....

This exact operation yes, did run under Bush, but it's been running for more years than any of the media would admit, and in many more countries, and organizations.
Guns and weapons have been distributed all through the years, to the localized opponents of many countries at odds against United States and the United Nations.

How Did Iraq Get Its Weapons? We Sold Them

And that is just one of the examples. First we love ya, and wanna arm ya! Then we don't get our way, so we're making up stories to come and getch'ya, take you outta a hole and watch ya hang!

This is very true.....

It's been going on longer than most of us have even been alive. Nothing new here....

The major differences are that, under Bush, the Mexican government knew it was going on, they didn't lose track of the guns, and, when they discovered they were catching only "small fry," they shut it down.
Under Obama, the Mexicans weren't notified, if a truckload of guns turned north instead of going directly south to Mexico, they stopped following it, and they kept it up until border agents started getting killed.

To say the programs were exactly the same or that Fast and Furious was started under Bush is a media lie.

In my post the major differences is.... it's not just the Mexican gov. that this is going on in. To say that the Fast & Furious is the only time the US gov. has supplied arms to our enemies is a lie.

Of course, this all happened because we don't have good enough background checks, and anyone can buy 700 rifles undetected, right?

Of course, neither of these is unbiased or non-partisan like ABC, NBC, CBS, CNN, PBS, OR MSNBC.

I know one source of truth, but I can't mention it here.
