It’s really just astounding. How in the world does Barack Obama continue to get away with such total and complete B.S.? ~
 

 

In case you missed it, here he was in Mexico this week;

… we also recognize that most of the guns used to commit violence here in Mexico come from the United States.

 
😯 … Because YOU sent them there!

I think many of you know that in America, our Constitution guarantees our individual right to bear arms, and as President I swore an oath to uphold that right and I always will. But at the same time, as I’ve said in the United States, I will continue to do everything in my power to pass common-sense reforms that keep guns out of the hands of criminals and dangerous people. That can save lives here in Mexico and back home in the United States. It’s the right thing to do.

 
WRONG. The RIGHT thing to do would be to put you in prison for TYRANNY:

for lying to the Americans (and Mexicans) about YOUR gunrunning operation – which resulted in the deaths of at least one American border agent – and more than 300 Mexicans.

The WRONG thing to do would be to limit our rights under the Second Amendment – because that’s exactly the result you hoped to orchestrate with Fast & Furious from day one!

As far back as 2009 DHS head Janet Napolitano was rambling on about about cross-border efforts to stop guns from going to Mexico ~

… we are reaching out to the national security adviser, to the attorney general and others about how we within the United States make sure we are doing all we can in a coordinated way to support the president of Mexico.

 
Bear in mind, this is just about the time Operation Fast & Furious was ramping up…

“I’ve met with the attorney general of Mexico and the ambassador already,” Napolitano said. “One of the things that I particularly am focused on is southbound traffic in guns. Particularly assault weapons and cash are being used to funnel and fund these very, very violent cartels.
 
“So working with Customs, working with ATF, we’re looking at ways that we can help suppress that traffic,” said Napolitano. 😯 “But in my view, from a Homeland Security standpoint, this is going to be an issue, working with Mexico, that is going to be of real priority interest over these coming months.”

 
This was all a total smoke screen to hide the administration’s real priority; running guns INTO Mexico. We were focused on “southbound traffic in guns” all right. We were the one’s sending them down!

I love Daniel Greenfield’s take on this outrageous charade; Obama Smuggles Guns to Mexico, Blames 2nd Amendment for Mexican Gun Violence ~

“So we’ll keep increasing the pressure on gun traffickers who bring illegal guns into Mexico. We’ll keep putting these criminals where they belong — behind bars.”
~ President Obama, May 3rd in Mexico City ~

 
I think that it’s quite courageous of Obama to issue a call to put himself behind bars. This is an issue where I believe we can find bipartisan support to move forward and put gun traffickers like Holder and Obama where they belong.

Dear Lord, if only!

Last we heard, the Attorney General of the United States was obstructing Congressional access to materials related to the ATF and DoJ operation, even in the face of Congressional subpoenas and a contempt of Congress citation. Those firearms were used in hundreds of murders in Mexico and at least two in the United States, but so far Obama’s own Cabinet official won’t cooperate in the investigation into how the administration put those weapons into the hands of those criminals.
