Is This Why White House Funded ‘guns-to-drug-lords’ Scheme?

Project Gunrunner, the controversial government program that runs guns into Mexico, under the Obama administration has contributed to fraudulent statistics seemingly targeting U.S. gun owners.

The misleading data raise questions about the intentions of Project Gunrunner, which some believe could be a defining scandal for the White House.

In February 2008, William Hoover, assistant director for field operations of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, testified before Congress that over 90 percent of the firearms that have been recovered in or intercepted in transport to Mexico originated from various sources within the U.S.

Hoover’s statistics officially were released by the ATF and subsequently were cited in a flurry of news media pieces claiming the vast majority of illicit firearms in Mexico originate in the U.S.

The U.S. Government Accountability Office also used the ATF’s 90 percent statistic in an official report to Congress about American firearms. The Justice Department even incorporated the data in several of its programs.

    The final step in a dictatorship is gun confiscation .. Obama is ready to move on this. He got a wee bit carried away, though, and didn't expect his deceptive little plan to be revealed. We need to get the hell out of the UN and get the UN out of the U.S. Screw their "Small Arms Ban Treaty." If Hillary likes it, let her move out of the U.S. too. There will always be "an American with a gun behind every blade of grass."

  3. This just may have been a angle Obama was playing to attack our Second Amendment Rights? i would put nothing past Obama & his cronies.

  4. this illegal muslim ursurping treasonous fraud-is BUSTED here. Take him out,NOW. There is no possible way he did not know. The orders HAVE TO COME FROM HIM.

  5. Of course it was all about taking away our 2d Amendment rights. Their little-big plan was so idiotic, it was destined for failure. It was indeed very funny when it backfired. However, the death of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry is not funny and Obama and Holder should pay for their lunacy.

    ………..by direction of the President of the United States: http://weaselzippers.us/2011/07/11/flashback-marc… – Proof that the President knew and approved this operation.

    When will Barack Obama and Eric Holder be indicted for these actions? This is worse than "Watergate". Border agents and civilians from both sides of the border have been killed with these weapons!
