#1 Actually, Doc Steve, she's been close and hard on this story. CBS actually pulled her off the story for a full month, and she fought to get it back. She is keeping it front and center.

#2 Remind me again how many federal agents were killed as a result of the watergate break-in?

#3 *ahem*
"For now, congressional investigators are tightly focusing their probe into the actions of the Department of Justice and the ATF, and have spent very little time publicly, at least delving into the roles that the FBI and DEA have played in the scandal. Likewise, investigators have not yet focused their energies on the Department of Homeland Security and Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE). Dennis Burke, the U.S. attorney that just resigned as a result of his actions in the plot and coverup, was the long-time chief-of-staff for Napolitano while she was governor of Arizona. It is unlikely that a high-risk operation run on Napolitanos home turf, where she had been both governor and state attorney general and was still responsible for national security, happened without her being personally briefed."

soooo Holder and Incompetano may be linked. Smells like Obama pardons on the way out the door

#4 It's always the cover up that gets you.

#6 Didn't someone ask Obama a while back about his lack of progress on gun control, and he replied that he was working on that behind the scenes?

Was Project Gunwalker what he was referring to?

#7 I know I am being pushed that direction Pollyandrew, especially as the stink begins to build.

#9 I'm concerned that they keep convoluting Fast and Furious ( a clearly lame-brained plan that lead to deaths) with Gunwalker (less lamebrained) in an effort to minimize the issues. They were two different plans

#10 What did Holder and Obama know and when did each know it?

I would dearly love this scandal to explode in their faces about a year from now. Wouldn't that be sweet timing? Watergate had a lengthy gestation period.

(With apologies, Frank, I think you meant conflating instead of convoluting.)
