CBS Exclusive: "Fast and Furious IG report slams ATF Phoenix personnel."

"The Inspector General (IG) draft report on Fast and Furious heaps blame on the Phoenix-based staff of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms (ATF) according to those familiar with the document."
Well, there's a big surprise. You didn't think Kevin O'Reilly's name would come up, did you? Ask yourself just one thing. Who is in a position to read and leak the contents of this report which is not yet final and hasn't been seen outside the executive branch? Someone who is interested in what the military calls, IPB -- "Intelligence Preparation of the Battlespace."

I love to read your blog. But you are so much more into military jargon, strategy etc. I wish you would explain with a couple of sentences -- the implications of things. Some of us -- we are in the right place but not fully attuned to your understanding of things. What are the implications? who could have leaked? does the leak help us or them? Sorry, I am dense on this.

From an old Firesign Theater sketch:

Nixon's voice: "Yes, Henry, but I've used up so many lately!"

Yeah, only somehow they keep winning the battles don't they? That would pretty much be a measure of their intelligence wouldn't it?

Stupid people do not win battles or arguments and yet there they sit, astride the levers of power, wiping their asses with the constitution and bill of rights?

What a bunch of dumb asses!

Yep - the Phoenix guys are going to be left holding the bag. Of course they will still get their pensions etc - after a minor hand slap and/or tongue lashing.

The problem is that this result will paint them as the 'rogue operatives' acting totally on their own initiative with no oversight. That in and of itself should be more than enough to get (with)holder fired - total lack of supervision of his subordinates. But it won't.

And never mind that the exact same 'tactics' were used in at least 3 other places (that we know of) - nah, no systemic planning there, just one of them koinkydinks - or a LOT more 'rogues' loose in the dept. of (in)justice...........

You're right in that they are some very intelligent folks behind the ultimate levers of power. Fortunately for us they have expanded their collective efforts to control more and more of our society and are having to use some lower IQ folks to execute their operations -- hence, FUBARED ops such as F&F. The weight of multiple FUBARED ops brought to public scrutiny will slowly wake up Boobus Americanus to the actual pathetic condition their liberty and life in this country has become.

The only thing holding the lid on the inevitable eruption is the lapdog effete lamestream media who, rather than lick their own genitals and asshole, lick the genitals and assholes of the self anointed intellectual elites of the governing class.

Hopefully Boobus Americanus will put down their remote controls long enough to evaluate their own dangerous and pathetic positions in this world.

They won't, and that's the point. The only hope we have is alternative media on the net and we now know that they mean to use tax dollars to interdict that threat.

That leaves only two courses of action.
