EXCERPT: "CNN's John King plays Holder's testimony to Congress on MAY 3, 2011, where he said he had only just recently heard about the Fast & Furious gunrunning program. "I'm not sure of the exact date, but I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks," Attorney General Eric Holder said.
Then CNN compares Holder's testimony to what President Obama said in MARCH to CNN Espanol about the operation. "I heard on the news about this story that -- Fast and Furious, where allegedly guns were being run into Mexico, and ATF knew about it, but didn't apprehend those who had sent it." Transcript of the segment that aired on "John King USA" below:
KING: Well, Congressman Cummings, let's get to one of the questions here. Let's first listen to the attorney general. He came before this committee back in May. Here's what he said.
Obama Spoke About "Fast & Furious" Before Holder Claimed He Knew
ISSA: When did you first know about the program officially I believe called Fast and Furious? To the best of your knowledge, what date?
ERIC HOLDER, U.S. ATTORNEY GENERAL: I'm not sure of the exact date, but I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks.
KING: He says over the last few weeks.
That is on May 3, 2011. Listen to this interview the president of the United States, not the attorney general, the president of the United States, had with CNN Espanol back in March.
BARACK OBAMA, PRESIDENT OF THE UNITED STATES: There have been problems, you know. I heard on the news about this story that -- Fast and Furious, where allegedly guns were being run into Mexico, and ATF knew about it, but didn't apprehend those who had sent it.
Eric Holder has -- the attorney general has been very clear that he knew nothing about this. We had assigned an I.G., inspector general, to investigate it.
KING: It begs the question, how did the president know about this in March, and how did the president know the attorney general knew nothing about this in March, when the Attorney General says in May he just learned about it a couple weeks ago?" (OOOOPSEY!)

It appears that President Alinsky is dining well tonight in the White House ala Louie and Marie and let us hope that he enjoys his meal because if there was any justice in America he'll be facing charges from Issa soon. If this had been done by a Republican POTUS, the Leftists would be dropping kittens and Cindy Shatehead would be out moaning about the evil murderer in the White House, blah, blah, blah.
Once again, it is the opinion of the Gunny that this entire Regime is guilty of crimes against the USA and they should ALL be investigated, no matter the cost or the time involved. Surely there are enough retired FBI agents and detectives willing to help put liberal scum in jail, or maybe a nice vacation at Club Gitmo. Hey, Holder and Obama can be cellies and convert to Islam together. Wait, Obama is a Marxist Muslim so he can help Holder convert!

This is beginning to make Watergate look "pale" by comparison.

Is lying wrong? I thought they made it OK in '97. Depending on the definition...
ReplyDeleteLiberals seem to believe that the self-created bubbles they live in make them invisible to the outside world. They always seem genuinely surprised when they are expected to be accountable for their actions.
ReplyDeleteFrankly Gunny, I hope both Holder and O'Vomit face a hangman's noose.
ReplyDeleteYou know damn well if this were R's doing this crap the OLDM would be throwing hissies about it. From THIS media,with FEW exceptions,crickets. Getting rid of Obama and his minions is a good FIRST step. Got a TON of work to do AFTER the mofo is gone. Starting with the media,then onto the educational system,or what passes for it,I suppose.
