I'm no fan of Wikileaks but, this is something the American public needed to know. The goverment knew we were selling explosives and full auto weapons to foreign entities and that they were disappearing. Then they try and blame law abiding business owners! Any of us who have seen the pics of confiscated mexcian weapons could tell they weren't available at Joe's gun, ammo, and bait shop in Yuma, AZ(I just made that last part of as an example). Combine this with project gunrunner and you've got quite a basis for conspiracy toward gun owners by the Obama administration. Oh wait, neither he nor Eric Holder knew about these things, so its not there fault right? :sparta:

Politicians can only fix problems THEY CREATE! Or, take advantage of an opportunity that is at hand to bolster their own recognition in their own mind!

Always educate yourself before voting for what anyone SAYS they will do! Integrity does count as does your word!

BHO promissed high energy and gas prices along with "CHEAP and AFFORDABLE" healthcare :rolleyes: and he KEPT HIS WORD!

So so true. I read a book a long time ago called Dark Aliance By a writer named Gary Webb. Nothing surprises me anymore when it comes to politicians. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dark_Alliance

Let's just pray that any reference to BHO is in the past tense come next election, and with that blessing Holder will also disappear from our lives.
Blaming gun owners for the armed cartels is only a smoke screen for them to hide behind after their underhanded arms deals.

I've gotta ask...does this really surprise anyone??? If you remember, back in the '80s when the Afghans were fighting the then Soviets, the US/CIA supplied Afghan militants with not only weapons and munitions, but training as well. Now look where that's gotten us...

Yeah, and I agree with Charlie Wilson. We should've done more after the russians left. We created a power vacuum perfert for groups like to taliban to move in. Thats a big reason why I'm cringe when I hear talk of arming the Lybian rebels, it never seems to work out for us when we do that.

add to that list Noriega, Castro and Che Guevarra, Taliban (not just the Afghans), Hussein.....this list goes on and on and EVERY time we pull this underhanded support thing, it backfires tremendously.

Good short book to pick up is "How To Stage a Military Coup"....the title is fecetious as the book is really about how futile and ridiculous it is to incite military coup detat`s (mispelled) and how US, UK, and USSR have been instrumental in so many coup attempts and successes...interesting read for sure especially the Saddham chapter
