FINALLY: House committee schedules Contempt Vote against Eric Holder

House committee schedules contempt vote against Holder – Political Hotsheet – CBS News.

Pharmer has been waiting a long time for the House to begin proceedings against Attorney General Eric Holder, for his refusal to cooperate with their investigation of the gun running of the Fast and Furious operation in Mexico.  Possibly Holder’s ridiculous  claim, that emails mentioning Fast and Furious were not about Fast and Furious, was the tipping point.

The U.S. government sent guns to Mexico in order to raise controversy about their use by drug cartels, and use this as an excuse to undermine our  Second Amendment rights.

Use of Fast and Furious supplied weapons is connected to  many deaths including hundreds of Mexican citizens outside of the cartels, and U.S. border and ICE agents.

The  executive branch of government has assisted the killings by Mexican drug cartels in order to whip up antipathy towards American gun owners.

Congressional action against   Eric Holder  is long overdue.

ATF Let Hundreds of U.S. Weapons Fall into Hands of Suspected Mexican Gunrunners – The Center for Public Integrity.

In an effort to obtain prosecutions of criminals higher up in the food chain, the ATF purposely allowed guns to be sold to intermediaries, then pass into Mexico where they were used in various crimes involving bandits and the drug cartel.   The majority of the guns involved in this scheme remain at large.

This caught a little more than usual non-attention due to the slaying of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.  Two of the weapons associated with this crime were traced to the ATF Fast and Furious operation which allowed those guns to pass into Mexico.

Whistle blowers within the ATF are expecting to be jobless due to having provided some of  the information linked above.    It’s worth a read.
