While admittedly a bit naïve, I realize I never fully thought through all of the implications this scandal exposes.
As I fully digest the reality of this illegal and deadly operation, and reflect on it from a constitutional perspective, it reaffirms for me why this country needs to retire President Obama and his entire cabinet in November.
How Eric Holders continues to sit starry eyed in front of Rep. Darrell Issa commission hearing after commission hearing is beyond me!But, what truly angers me now is the underlying insidiousness of the operation. Putting American guns in the hands of Mexican cartel members and criminals, which were then subsequently used to kill an American border agent in order to tighten gun laws and further erode our Second Amendment rights, is pure evil.
Americans should be outraged.
If Obama is not impeached over “declaring war” without Congressional approval, this Mexican gun-running debacle might just do the trick.
In recent days, Tea Party groups have expressed their anger and frustration, and rightly so. It’s the same old government quandary—to posture or not to posture but by no means resolve the problem.
While some still love to misguidedly slam the “Tea Party Patriots” for their core mission, to reduce Federal government, thank goodness these groups continue to make noise. The top three House Republicans have been slow to lead the charge of the GOP’s criticism of the botched operation, which is likely due to the general election.
An innocent man is dead, our constitutional rights continue to be trampled on, and GOP leadership doesn’t have the guts to walk the walk with the Obama administration.
It’s no wonder U.S. Congressional approval is at a historical, all-time low!
