Politics as Usual

Fast and Furious Update. The Justice Department (what an ineptly named organization by the way) is at it again. Eric Holder continues to deny involvement and knowledge of Fast and Furious, despite e-mails and documents to the contrary. The Justice Department and not so coincidentally a report from Democrats came out exonerating the Justice Department and blaming the Phoenix office of the ATF. Holder continues to hold out on some 80,000 e-mails that Congress is requesting.

There is still hope that justice will be found. The family of slain Border Patrol agent Brian Terry sued the Federal Government over Brian's death from one of thousands of guns that the Justice Department facilitated to be exported to the Mexican Cartels. Additionally, besides the Representative Issa (R-CA), Congress also has a young Congressman from South Carolina named Trey Gowdy, a former prosecutor now hot on the trail to get to the truth about one of the biggest blunders, and now cover ups, in Federal history.


Obama's Religious Hypocrisy. President Obama spoke at the 60th annual National Prayer Breakfast. Obama spoke about his Christian beliefs for both politics and his personal life (but to be sure, some people still think he is not a Christian). Obama turned this morning of religious unity into a stump speech trying to make the point that his design to raise taxes on the wealthiest Americans, ram down health mandates usurping individual freedoms and other anti-business economic decisions were, in fact, grounded in his faith.

“I think to myself, if I’m willing to give something up as somebody who’s been extraordinarily blessed, and give up some of the tax breaks that I enjoy, I actually think that’s going to make economic sense,” Obama told the audience. “But for me, as a Christian, it also coincides with Jesus’s teaching that ‘for unto whom much is given, much shall be required."

Well if you want to pay more fine - pay more. But don;t be using our money to fund your radical agenda and failed economic agenda. This is a matter of freedom and the very existence of our government. For Obama to use religion to try and justify his freedom killing beliefs is just pathetic.
