It had to do with various black hearted liars. Did I forget to hit the "submit" button or was it deleted?
I've hit preview instead of submit several times and didn't notice.

I doubt I could have handled the reporter's job and I'm glad I wasn't there. If he would have stuck his finger in my face I'm afraid I'd been in jail on felony charges. Don't think the secret service would have taken kindly to the wrist lock I'd used in bringing the "nice man" to his knees.

"You guys" as in the MSM?

Give me a break - blogger Mike Vanderboegh at Sipsey Street Irregulars and David Codrea, gun-rights columnist, broke the story - and have been pushing the highly-biased MSM to break their clampdown on the story. How can you get more organic or grassroots than that?
Exactly. Besides Fox running the on again/off again updates, the only other "mainstream" attention was one woman at CBS, and it seems she got a pretty hard time about it. And I haven't seen much from CBS lately on it, either. More threats and intimidation from the "most transparent administration" who think they are all above the law and can simply do whatever they want, and to Hades with the rest of us "peasants" out here in "flyover country". Disgusting.

I share your angst; however, be reminded that the "most transparent administration" was elected by the majority. We can thank the GOP's failure to put forth viable candidates and a viable platform for that travesty.

I think there were other factors at work in the previous presidential election. One was eight years of the Bush administration. That automatically got some people wanting to vote for the "other party" just to do so, even if they didn't have anything personal against Mr. Bush and his admin. Two, the media ran their campaign aided and abetted by the "entertainment industry" to show the current "occupier" of the White House in the most shining light that perhaps any politician has been shown in, while covering up any and everything that may have been detrimental to him. And finally, I truly believe that a certain percentage of voters voted for the current "occupier" to assuage a certain sort of "guilt" that they have been trained to feel, no matter what the actual qualifications or politics of the person they voted for. I think understand what you mean by viable candidates and platform, but on the other hand, a lot of people don't like being told they have been doing things wrong, either. They'd rather get a certain type of feel good message...one that I believe has turned out to be full of "Hoax and Chains"...

Let's hope Romney doen't make a comeback and give Obama four more years.

It now appears that at least 25 justice dept. lawyers worked on Holder's lying February letter to Congress denying fast & furious. The stink of Obama's corruption is so rank in the Justice Department now, that not only should Holder resign, but scores of justice dept attorneys need to be disbarred and prosecuted criminally. House cleaning in the Obama justice department needs to go far beyond the resignation of a few political appointees. To permit any of those who participated in the cover up to remain at the justice department is to say it's ok for our federal government to commit crimes. Serious business folks. :nono:

:iagree:, the lies go all the way back to 2008 when the current POTUS promised transparency in his administration.

And just as promised his "administration" knows exactly what is going on...its just the rest of us that are left in the dark! ;-)

Also, we are dealing with a Chicago Politician (the worst kind), so you know that wasn't going to happen.

Their lies are pretty transparent.
I believe the basic political division in this country is not between liberals and conservatives but between those who believe that they should have a say in the personal lives of strangers and those who do not.

Here's the basic problem: most of us on this forum are traditional Americans, with a deep appreciation for our Country and its Constitution, yet the President we elected in 2008 is a Marxist, who has little regard for our traditions and less regard for the Constitution. I think it's as simple as that.
