It follows and fits with Mitt’s pattern of EXTORTION, he did not earn millions he extorted millions from others! Be they stockholders, employees or the taxpayers he extorted from them producing nothing of VALUE TO SOCIETY OR THE ECONOMY!

Thank you, Lynda…
Fast & Furious is just another way that republicans spend taxpayer money to whoop and hollar with no evidence of wrong-doing after all the fuss.

Now get up off the IRS tax returns, Mittens!!!

I told you why.. To give his CPA minions time to doctor them up. That’s why members of the IRS needs to be present when he reluctantly reveals them, then the IRS can compare them to what he actually presented to them. The dirt bag ‘s a fraud.

What a strange comment indeed. I can’t help but wonder if you are in any way interested in truth. The program was not run by the Obama administration as anyone paying attention clearly understands.

After 18 months of investigation by Issa crowd, and even he admits, there is no evidence showing Holder, his top lieutenants, or any White House officials or staff authorized the discredited methods used in Fast & Furious by the ATF agents in Pheonix, AZ. Or for that matter that they deliverately concealed informaiton on those tactics from Congress. This is just a wagging of the dog.

The investigation has run it course and all of the political points that can be gathered are already in it will go no futher. The contempt voting was Issa’s out of a deadend investigation. He knows full well that the legal issues will go way beyond the election cycle. After that is of no concern to him or Congress.

The thousands of pages of documents already provided by the DOJ, and countless committee meeting has shown ovewhelmingly that the tactics ued were conceived by field agents of ATF in Pheonix, with very limited involvement from DOJ.

Perhaps most telling was the testimoney given behind closed doors by the former head of the ATF who told Issa and his committee that the White House had nothing to do with the methods and operations.

If you really want to get the fact straight in your head I strongely suggest that you read the Fortune article ‘The Truth about Fast & Furious’ written by Katherin Eba. Google it and get informed.

BTW, the docs being denied the Congress are internal and after the date the program was terminated by AG Holder. The witch hunt is just a time and money waster after 18 months. Enough is enough.

They speak as if they are actually trying to improve the plight of average Americans, when as you point out they’ve stood in the way of all progress since the very day Obama was scorn in. Unfortunately, such nonsense works on the majority of our ill informed and non-engaged public. The old badger game with a little deception, divide and conquer tossed in for flavor… works too well.

Mr. Judson;

Why aren’t you badgering Pres. Obama to release the documentation on the ‘Fast and Furious’ debacle? After all, people died as a result of that Obama administration program.

An higher respect now has to be paid to Sen. John McCain. Who would have thought that the GOP would nominate a presidential candidate that would give Sarah palin gravitas.

Romney is not man his father George was. When George Romney was running as a candidate for the right to be the Republican candidate for President he released 10 years of his tax returns on his own no one had asked for them. But his son is just releasing two tax returns and saying he won’t release anymore because they would give ammo to use against him during the campaign instead of talking about the economy, jobs, and so on. Why does Romney and the Republicans want to talk about the economy or jobs now? Republicans are the reason that the economy has not recovered any faster than it has and the reason there have not been as many jobs opened as is needed to put all back to work. Everything President Obama has tried to do to help this country recover Republicans has thrown a money wrench into it by their filibustering and the stupid rule that there has to be 60 votes in the Senate for a bill to pass when a majority vote is suppose to be 51. The Democrat that came up with that rule needs to be kicked to the moon, it has hurt the country as much as the Republicans have.
Don’t bet on Romney releasing any more tax returns than he already has. He won’t release any more returns because he doesn’t want the American voters see how he has used the very big tax loopholes that benefit the rich to keep from paying taxes and where his money is really invested.

What the hell is Boehner talking about? He says Obama has done nothing with the economy but the republican congress won’t let anything happen at all!!! Then he says that Obama can’t run on his own record, but Obama does frequently cite his own record. I think it’s Boehner who is trying to deflect attention away from Mitt’s unwillingness to disclose his tax returns. It’s almost certain that whatever is in those documents will be found to be illegal or unethical.

Romney’s message to republicans:

“I am what I am and you’re stuck with me whether you like it or not. Just be glad I’m not another George Bush.”

As always the republicans are stuck with the candidate they hate the least.
