Issa Staffer: Gunrunner Investigation Points To Individual Much Higher Than ATF Director

June 21st, 2011 (6) Posted By Pat Dollard.

Excerpted from The Daily Caller:

A spokesman for House Oversight Committee Chairman Darrell Issa told The Daily Caller the congressman expects his investigations into the Justice Department’s gun walking programs to point to a much higher political appointee than acting ATF director Kenneth Melson. Melson is widely expected to resign some time in the next couple of days in the face of political pressure from Issa’s investigations into Project Gunrunner and Operation Fast Furious.

Even if Melson resigns, Issa spokesman Frederick Hill said the Committee expects to find much more and continue with investigations. “The investigations are far from over,” Hill told TheDC. “It’s quite certain that Kenneth Melson was not the principal architect of this plan nor was he the only high-ranking official who knew about and authorized this operation.”

    These radicals in the government attempted to make the argument that guns were being sold in the U.S. to Mexican drug cartels to further their argument for gun control.

    It cost the life of a border agent and who knows how many others.

    There are 2 or 3 smoking guns in this scenario. One is named obama and the other is labeled Holder. Although Homeland Security’s BIG CYST may be a player, too.This whole thing stinks to high heaven!! GET obama and his regime of crooks and GET them GOOD!
