The deaths behind Fast & Furious: Obama and Holder, you OWN THOSE DEATHS

Posted on by

Mr Obama was shocked, absolutely stunned, when Univision didn’t pitch him a series of interview “softballs” two weeks ago.

VERY IMPORTANT NOTE: Once again, however, Obama LIED: “Fast & Furious” did not start under President Bush.  Even ABC News acknowledges this fact.

Then Univision did something worse: it found many more weapons that were linked to Fast & Furious:

The Spanish language television news network Univision unleashed a bombshell investigative report on Operation Fast and Furious Sunday evening, finding that in January 2010 drug cartel hit men slaughtered students with weapons the United States government allowed to flow to them across the Mexican border.

“On January 30, 2010, a commando of at least 20 hit men parked themselves outside a birthday party of high school and college students in Villas de Salvarcar, Ciudad Juarez,” according to a version of the Univision report in English, on the ABC News website.

“Near midnight, the assassins, later identified as hired guns for the Mexican cartel La Linea, broke into a one-story house and opened fire on a gathering of nearly 60 teenagers. Outside, lookouts gunned down a screaming neighbor and several students who had managed to escape. Fourteen young men and women were killed, and 12 more were wounded before the hit men finally fled.”

Citing a Mexican Army document it obtained and published, Univision reported that “[t]hree of the high caliber weapons fired that night in Villas de Salvarcar were linked to a gun tracing operation run by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF).”

That operation was Fast and Furious.

The result to date?  Yes: absolutely nobody in the Department of Justice was held accountable. Some lesser administrators were allowed to “resign” quietly or found themselves magically reassigned. Nobody was fired.  Nobody was arrested.

Clearly, Eric Holder has Obama’s “complete confidence” regarding Fast & Furious:

The DOJ already said it won’t prosecute Holder for contempt;

Eric Holder stonewalled handing over Fast & Furious documents;

Obama himself asserted “executive privilege” with regard to the F&F documents;

Holder himself said Fast & Furious doesn’t really mean “Fast & Furious.”

Paul Ryan said on Monday that Eric Holder has to resign and do so immediately.  In fact, Romney said in December of 2011:

“Either Mr. Holder himself should resign, or the president should ask for his resignation or remove him.  It’s unacceptable for him to continue in that position now given the fact that he has misled Congress and entirely botched the investigation of the Fast and Furious program.”

Obama is corrupt.  He is a liar.  He is at once fighting to retain his White House chair and simultaneously disengaged and disinterested in actually LEADING this country.

Trotted out nightly on the DEM/MSM?  Of course not.

“End of Watch” — for the nation

Posted on by

I attended a Sunday showing of the new David Ayer film, “END OF WATCH.”

At its conclusion, I couldn’t help but make some linkages and indulge in a tad bit of introspection.

First, “End of Watch” is not “Training Day.”

I would recommend EOW to everyone looking for a remarkably accurate portrayal of police work in a big city rife with gangs, violence, mixed races and endless challenges for law enforcement.  It does an excellent job of displaying the best and the worst of humanity.  It does an excellent job of illustrating how the current young mixed generation of cops deal with the concepts of evil, sacrifice, history, courage, violence, reality, insanity, family, support, camaraderie, cliques, teams, and a greater awareness and sense of self.  And, moreover, how they are the video, social media, explicit, unabashed, put-everything-out-there generation — with little concern for the concomitant consequences.

That said, I wanted to investigate the making of the film.  America Ferrera has an interesting insight in this article. As in: the neighborhoods were true and correct.  As were a bulk of the “actors” in the “background.”  I won’t event speculate as to the amounts of cash that had to flow for the movie company to work unimpeded in L.A.

And that made me think further:

Perhaps there is an actual coming “end of watch” for our nation as well.  Further: the reasons are so clearly illustrated in this film.

There are not only individual persons but gangs and neighborhoods and communities and areas and subdivisions and cities and states reliant but upon the continual flow of local, state and federal cash.  Welfare cash.  Free cash.  Cash undeserved but still proffered.

As in:

But: how did we get there?  And what will we do now?  And how can we rid ourselves of this denigrating and corrupting plague?

And how did these two disparate persons/races manage to not only survive but — until the de nou mas — thrive?

How did we get here?

How did we get our cops to battle death edicts called in from foreign countries?

How did we allow MS13 “Big Evil” to exist in our suburbs in the first place?

Why do we or should we pit our civilian cops against militaristic cults, groups, gangs, unions, units or brigades from foreign military groups?

In one car: two Glock 17 pistols, six magazines, and one shotgun with six shells?

This, ladies and gentlemen, is a proverbial setup for failure.

Open borders.  Versus closed borders.

Right vs wrong.

How did we get here?

And a final question:

Would your dead grandparents recognize this current country?

Chicago teachers strike: want a 16% wage increase

Posted on by

[CTU President Karen Lewis makes a poor argument that Chicago teachers are starving.]

I create this post with my caveat:

I am a member of an association that has its roots in unions.  Mine has been a “closed shop” for a number of years, which means that I have no voice in where my dues go, nor do I have an ability to stop my dues.  With one exception: I can shuttle my dues over to our law enforcement chaplaincy, which I have done.  When I was in Homicide, I saw the Good Works that our LE chaplains did on a daily basis.

That said, I first made $5.79 an hour whilst a Fornicalia deputy sheriff in a coastal county in 1978.  And that coastal county had (and still has) one of the highest costs in the state for housing.  That wage also included my premium hourly 25-cent “shift differential” for working graveyards.

I never entered law enforcement to cut the proverbial fat hog.  I lived month-to-month for, literally, two decades at work.  Whatever wage or benefit issues were acquired due to negotiations were such that both sides of the table agreed to it.

In the very best of years, I perhaps acquired a 3% to 5% increase — in the 90s.

In Chicago, however, the city teachers have clearly gone “off the rails.”

Apparently the teachers, identical to Mr Obama, are “tone deaf” in re the tenor of the times.

Chicago: the city where Rahm Emanuel is Mayor.  The city that spawned Barack Hussein Obama as a community organizer.  The city that embraces William Ayers, Bernardine Dohrn, Reverend Jeremiah Wright, Tony Rezko, Reverend Michael Pfleger.

The city that has a higher murder rate than New York.  The city that has Draconian gun laws.

Chicago: the city where its teachers want a 16% increase in wages.  In 2012!  A raise that the teachers turned down.  City of Chicago teachers already have the highest average salary in the entire nation.  Even more than Fornicalia.  That in itself is amazing.

Chicago teachers average $76,000 per year prior to the addition of benefits.

For — dare I portray the obvious here — three months OFF per year.

Frankly, I don’t think even the CEO of Exxon-Mobil acquired a 16% raise this year.

P.S.
9/11 has been over-done.  I’ll let others make that post today.
