Another example of "blame white people when blacks screw up". Might work though since the establishment media is always on the dem side.

Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee blames Fast and Furious on George W. Bush - Spokane Conservative | Examiner.com

On Wednesday, Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) tried to pin the Fast and Furious gun-walking scandal on former President George W. Bush.

“This Fast and Furious debacle started under the Bush administration,” Jackson Lee said. “And it is been evidenced by various reports that it started under the ATL office in Arizona unbeknownst to leadership in Washington DC, at least leadership that came in under the Obama administration in this instance, Eric Holder.”

Not so fast, says Andrew C. McCarthy of National Review Online.

For starters, Fast and Furious did not start until 2009, months after George W. Bush was no longer in the White House.

McCarthy explains that the Democrats' strategy is to conflate two "very different programs."

In this case, the two programs are Operation Fast & Furious and a "Bush era ATF initiative known as 'Operation Wide Receiver.'"

According to McCarthy, "Operation Wide Receiver" involved "not gun-walking but controlled delivery."

He explains that "controlled delivery is a very common law enforcement tactic."

Basically, the agents know the bad guys have negotiated a deal to acquire some commodity that is either illegal itself (e.g., heroin, child porn) or illegal for them to have/use (e.g., guns, corporate secrets). The agents allow the transfer to happen under circumstances where they are in control — i.e., they are on the scene conducting surveillance of the transfer, and sometimes even participating undercover in the transfer. As soon as the transfer takes place, they can descend on the suspects, make arrests, and seize the commodity in question — all of which makes for powerful evidence of guilt.

"Fast and Furious," on the other hand, "involved uncontrolled deliveries — of thousands of weapons."

That woman is vile. Holder lied by alleging that former Attorney General Michael Mukasey knew of gunwalking during the George W. Bush administration.

They pressed Holder for evidence and he's retracted it.

So Byron York tweeted it. Chuck Grassley has informed everybody that, again -- what is it? -- misinformation.

During a Senate Judiciary Committee hearing, Holder alleged that Bush's AG knew about Fast and Furious. The Senate committee said, "We want some proof of that. We want some evidence to back up that claim blaming Mukasey for Fast and Furious."

So when proof was demanded, Eric Holder and the DOJ "retracted that statement" that Mukasey knew anything about it. Which is gonna make it really, really hard for them to assert that Fast and Furious started under Bush.

Quick, somebody call Sheila Jackson Lee before she embarrasses herself!


:D

That's from part of the transcript of Rush's show today. Too funny.

She's a dumb ass. I wish I could find the video of speaking about Mars, liberals aint that smart, I dont care what elits

[ame=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DVOyAZ6NkgA]Sheila Jackson Lee's North and South Vietnam? WTF? Are All Democrats Geographically Challenged? - YouTube[/ame]

Jackson Lee graduated from Jamaica High School in Queens. She earned a B.A. in political science from Yale University in 1972, followed by a J.D. from the University of Virginia School of Law in 1975.[1] She is a member of Alpha Kappa Alpha sorority.[2]

Now you know THAT was affirmative action.

Oh the Mars Pathfinder story is hysterical.

“The Congressional bonehead award goes to Rep. Sheila Jackson Lee (D-TX) who, on a visit to JPL, asked if Mars Pathfinder had taken an image of the flag planted there in 1969 by Neil Armstrong!

Quipped Rep. Vernon Ehlers (R-MI) to the Washington Times: “We just don’t teach enough science.”

Worse, Jackson Lee, who represents Houston, is a member of the House Science Committee’s space subcommittee. Perhaps some committee reassignments are in order…”


And I found a list of some of the committees she has been on. No wonder the government is so FUBAR'd :razz:

Sheila Jackson-Lee has sat on the following committees:

Member, House Committee on Foreign Affairs
Member, Subcommittee on Africa and Global Health
Member, Subcommittee on The Middle East and South Asia
Member, House Committee on Homeland Security
Member, Subcommittee on Border, Maritime, and Global Counter terrorism
Chair, Subcommittee on Transportation Security and Infrastructure Protection
Member, House Committee on the Judiciary
Member, Subcommittee on Courts, the Internet, and Intellectual Property
Member, Subcommittee on Crime, Terrorism, and Homeland Security
Member, Subcommittee on Immigration, Citizenship, Refugees, Border Security, and International Law
 
Does anyone have that Mars video? I have to see the faces on the congress. She graduated from Yale for God's sake. If this doesnt show how stupid affirmative action is, then you're a fuckin commie.
 
Michael Mukasey should get a lawyer and file a civil lawsuit for slander against Holder tomorrow morning.

Not only get Holder thrown in jail but take all of his money from a civil lawsuit for slander against the Bush Admin in some feable attempt to deflect blame.

Two very different programs that did the EXACT SAME THING???? Hello! You guys don't get to make up your own facts. Haven't you figured that out?
 
Despicable! Yet liberals will believe it!

Blame Bush will be their slogan in 2016!

We like to believe the truth. Funny, This is the first time Obama has used Executive Privilege, but Bush used it 6 times. Oh, that's right. "Executive Privilege" is for Republican Presidents. Like "reconciliation" is for a Republican congress. I sometimes forget how the rules are different when it's Republicans in office.

Let's go though the rules to make sure I understand them:

1. Executive Privilege can only be used by a Republican President.

2. Reconciliation can only be used by a Republican Congress.

3. When Democrats are successful, Republicans get the credit.

4. When Republican policies fail, they suddenly belong to Democrats.

5. Republicans are not responsible for any of their disasters.

I'm pretty sure I've outlined the first five correctly. I'll get back to you on the rest.

Dean you're oversimplifying, please let us know what Bush did it for. YEah there was the case when Bush fired US attorney. Now, WHY was that a scandal? Presidents cant fire US attorneys and put their own people in?

One is controlled, one is not. Why didn't Holder use the Control method? Damage is done. The independents see the difference and will choose the next President. Holder can go back to his people.
 
The key to [Democrats'] strategy is conflating two very different programs: Operation Fast & Furious and a Bush era ATF initiative known as “Operation Wide Receiver.” In the questions from Judiciary Committee Democrats (principally, Senators Dianne Feinstein and Chuck Schumer — there may have been others but, again, I didn’t see the entire hearing), it emerged that Wide Receiver began in 2006, when Alberto Gonzales was the Bush administration attorney general...Wide Receiver actually involved not gun-walking but controlled delivery. Unlike gun-walking, which seems (for good reason) to have been unheard of until Fast & Furious, controlled delivery is a very common law enforcement tactic. Basically, the agents know the bad guys have negotiated a deal to acquire some commodity that is either illegal itself (e.g., heroin, child porn) or illegal for them to have/use (e.g., guns, corporate secrets). The agents allow the transfer to happen under circumstances where they are in control — i.e., they are on the scene conducting surveillance of the transfer, and sometimes even participating undercover in the transfer. As soon as the transfer takes place, they can descend on the suspects, make arrests, and seize the commodity in question — all of which makes for powerful evidence of guilt. Senator Schumer’s drawing of an equivalence between “tracing” in a controlled-delivery situation and “tracing” in Fast & Furious is laughable. In a controlled delivery firearms case, guns are traced in the sense that agents closely and physically follow them — they don’t just note the serial numbers or other identifying markers. The agents are thus able to trace the precise path of the guns from, say, American dealers to straw purchasers to Mexican buyers.

To the contrary, Fast & Furious involved uncontrolled deliveries — of thousands of weapon. It was an utterly heedless program in which the feds allowed these guns to be sold to straw purchasers — often leaning on reluctant gun dealers to make the sales. The straw purchasers were not followed by close physical surveillance; they were freely permitted to bulk transfer the guns to, among others, Mexican drug gangs and other violent criminals — with no agents on hand to swoop in, make arrests, and grab the firearms. The inevitable result of this was that the guns have been used (and will continue to be used) in many crimes, including the murder of Brian Terry, a U.S. border patrol agent. In sum, the Fast & Furious idea of “trace” is that, after violent crimes occur in Mexico, we can trace any guns the Mexican police are lucky enough to seize back to the sales to U.S. straw purchasers … who should never have been allowed to transfer them (or even buy them) in the first place. That is not law enforcement; that is abetting a criminal rampage.

On Fast & Furious, "Blame Bush" is a Lie - Guy Benson

Well- tell us Obama supporters how Fast and Furious, a completely different operation from the one Under Gonzales known as Operation Wide Receive, is Bush's fault?

Oh the President can claim Executive Privilege.

The problem with this scenario is why would he exert EP over documents he is purported never to have seen?

Rock and a hard place. If the President was never involved in any of the Fast and Furious operation, he wouldn't need to use EP.

Senator Grassley puts it quite well:

" His statement is this: "The assertion of executive privilege raises monumental questions. How can the president assert executive privilege if there was no White House involvement?"
