Darrell Issa SC Issas Right: Tougher Gun Laws Fast And Furious Goal

Scandal: The head of the House oversight panel suggests the real reason for the administration’s invoking executive privilege in the Fast and Furious case is to hide proof that the operation was part of a push for gun control.

Defenders of President Obama’s use of executive privilege to provide cover for Attorney General Eric Holder in the gun-running fiasco that resulted in the deaths of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and ICE Agent Jaime Zapata may dismiss it as just another conspiracy theory. But the suggestion by Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., that the deadly operation was conceived to advance the administration’s gun-control agenda is quite plausible.

“Here’s the real answer as to gun control,” Issa said on ABC’s “This Week”: “We have email from people involved in this that are talking about using what they’re finding here to support the — basically assault weapons — ban or greater reporting.”

Issa was asked about the possible connection after comments he made at an NRA convention. “Could it be,” he said on NRA News’ “Cam & Company” program, “that what they really were thinking of was in fact to use this walking of guns in order to promote an assault weapons ban? Many think so. And they haven’t come up with an explanation that would cause any of us not to agree.”

Perhaps the answer is in the documents that Holder and Obama are risking much to hide.

  2. Fast and Furious is ultimately about murder. Under our common law and statutory law, an action demonstrating the callous, reckless or depraved disregard for human life that results in death constitutes second degree murder. Those who give thousands of guns to murderous gangs, knowing many of those guns will be used to commit murder, are also guilty of murder. Holder has already confessed. Obama undoubtedly was involved. As your Congressman, I will work to ensure the guilty are brought to justice, whether they are in or out of office. There is no immunity or privilege. Right now we have ample probable cause to arrest federal employees for aggravated murder and its cover-up.

  3. If one is accused of a crime and you have evidence, however slim, that could even TEND to EXONERATE you – you’d have to be a damn fool NOT to see that it was presented and investigated! If, on the other hand …
