This just keeps getting better and better.
And by better and better, I naturally mean worse and worse.
But don’t worry. Your Democratic leaders have their priorities in place. And I, for one, have never felt safer.

Issa’s pretty tenacious. I wouldn’t expect him to be the one that backs down on this. Though, there is already talk about Holder being “completely unaware” of this operation. Which, you know, may be equally disturbing as if he was, IMHO.
Hey Bob, easy man, it’s hard out there for an Attorney General trying to find a courageous man in a nation of cowards. Who’d have time left to do his job?
That brought a funny image to mind, of Holder fancying himself a modern day Diogenes, only in his case searching for a courageous man.
I wonder what kind of lamp Holder cum Diogenes would be using?
Dare I suggest; a black light?
DENOUNCED!
Indeed. And concomitantly outfitted with special goggles, so he can pick-up the proper wavelengths.
This is the Obama administration’s Reichstag fire. They deliberately sought to manufacture a crisis in order to justify restricting our 2nd amendment rights.
Okay. So maybe more of a Reichstag broom closet fire. But that buiding has a lot of closets for the opportunistically inclined.
“Weiner/Holder 2012!”
I remember my leftish sister weeping in rage at the existential threat to the Constitution that Oliver North posed… I suspect that if I did ask about this, I would probably hear a goodly number of excuses and obfuscation on behalf of H[O!]lder.
Weiner is/was just Schumer’s Mini-Me.
LTC John,
This is way worse than anything North did. Iran-Contra wasn’t a conspiracy to deprive Americans of anything.
re JeffG’s final link
Just how long are the Christophobe Leftists going to dine out on the rare incidents of abortion clinic bombings… especially in the context that overturning abortion laws is exactly the same thing as wanting the US turned into Iran?
Ernst – I remember when my sister freaked about Iran-Contra I could hardly keep a straight face – all I wanted to do was ask “WTF are you talking about?”… But trying to fund a fight against a totalitarian commie bunch by feeding weapons into a stalemate fight between Rectumheaded Dictator Scum Bag and Collection of Human Crap Sacks Running A Theocracy for $ was EVIL!!1!1! and threatened the fabric of time space, per the Left. The USG feeding weapons into a neighbor in terrible trouble with drug gangs, and some of those weapons killing USG agents/civilians on both sides of the Rio Grande….meh, Rethuglican posturing!!1!1
Or so I would postulate.
geoffb
Ha! So much for the “it was just sex” apologists!
Rep Jackson-Lee: “The issue is whether or not their intent is to undermine the laws of this nation.”
oof. Does she really want us looking closely at intentions where it comes to merely undermining? I mean, that’s a long exploration many of us wouldn’t mind in the least.
Of course he was. The “American guns causing Mexican chaos” was Hillary’s campaign line. And, hey, foreign state, so naturally they’d approach us through our foreign relations apparatus to deal with the issue, right?
(I have no idea how serious I am with the above. It’s like the Schroedinger’s Cat of statements — both a joke and not a joke, simultaneously.)
Oh cartel gun buys…I thought you said Golf Boys.
Of course, you’re not a Border Patrol agent or a Branch Davidian….
“there is already talk about Holder being “completely unaware” of this operation. Which, you know, may be equally disturbing as if he was, IMHO.”
My theory:
Regardless of whether or not there is a fire feeding this smoke; stalling, misdirection and pleas of ignorance will remain the modus oporandi in Hol-bama land. See, the clock is running and regardless of how tenacious he is, Issa can’t get to the Black Panthers, Gerald Walpins and Fannie & Freddies if he gets bogged down on this (or any future) investigation.
It’s kinda like pulling teath from a squirming child with a pair of tweezers.
New Xrays are in and:
Looks like Issa is gonna have to reprioritize!!
Oops missed a !
only three !s will do for this one
CLINK THE LINK PEOPLE!!!
or “click” the link (your choice;)
Just throwing this out as a “wheels within wheels” notion, but you don’t suppose that Obama might be trying to pick a fight with the Republican controlled House in order to rally his base and/or change he subject, do you?
At some point Ernst it comes to be a question of what Obama isn’t trying to use to change the subject with, as opposed to what he is trying to use to change the subject with, the latter outnumbering the former as the stars outnumber the earth.
OT, and yet not…maybe.
NYT: Obama overruled top Pentagon, DOJ lawyers on Libya war powers
We have a toddler running America.
Possibly Ernst,
But the hypocrisy charge seems just a little too sticky on this one. I’m thinking he’s playing a losing hand and the dealer won’t be dealin him a new hand this time.
Pablo is your clinker broken? (see my 19 and 20;)
Imagine…
Can’t?
Yeah, me neither.
sdferr,
Me neither, I expect a cabal of Obamapologists to line up behind the prez. Rules are only meant to keep the right wing in it’s place. When they slow down the Messiah they must have been misinterpreted.
Of course he overruled them, he’s the smartest most qualified guy in any room.
Just ask Michelle. At the link is a typical Obama briefing.
This thread needs a car chase. Maybe an explosion, too.
And a cop who doesn’t care what the lieutenant says, he’s just gonna do what he needs to do.
Vroom! Kablooey!
“You can have my badge! I’m keeping the gun!”
You’re welcome.
It is better. But could the cop be played by a hot young Canadian juggalicious fembot?
Bam!
Outstanding. I tink you’ve gotta future in that game.
At Belmont Club on Obama overruling the lawyers.
I think we have had several demonstrations of the differences in truths here abouts.
Meantime, in a more consequential place, with more consequential circumstances, we look away.
Car chase huh? Some of my favorites there.
Haven’t seen any of those movies, G.
Yet, I’ve watched one of those Transformers movies, Sucker Punch, and I’m pretty sure that I imagined a trilogy of Facts of Life movies when I was falling asleep on opium about fifteen years ago.
There’s a decent chance that this explains some larger societal issues.
If we had the proper funding, I’d be willing to smoke some more opium. For the social sciences.
Switch to hash, dream while awake.
purty picture of an eclipsed moon, zap-bizzzzzztt.
Hey, my new desktop, thanks.
We thought hash was for listening to this song, playing this game, and studying this.
And eating this.
Math on hash. I’d not have thunk it. Food is good though.
LTC John,
I have been remiss in my life, and would have no life without the likes of you.
Thank you for being who and what you are, from the bottom of my heart.
Truly.
TLD
Not just any food. Harold’s chicken. Couple wings, piece of white bread to suck up some hot sauce. Grape Nehi. Probably cost about three bucks tops. Good times.
You’re sorta right though. Not much math was completed on hash. Which we very seldom scored.
You do math by taking stimulants.
(I’d say I’m joking but you start pulling those classes at the end of the core, last quarter sophomore year. Anyone you ever meet from that time, that school, with that sort of major? Knows to buy the bronchodilator without the cough suppressant.)
From Insty.
This would be only a more obvious, blatant really, example of the policies in all areas that have been pursued by the Progressive Democrats for many years.
Use the government to create or exacerbate a problem. Blame the private sector and citizens for it and propose new laws that funnel power to the government agencies which were used to create the problem but who are never held accountable or even exposed as being the cause of it. Rinse-repeat until all traces of liberty are erased from the land and eventually memory.
…but Bush took a whole bunch of vacations, and Katrina. And stuff.
What @42 said.
Oh, and this…anyone live near Omaha ?
