#5 note that all of the legwork and investigation took place before Holder was in place

#6 Yes Frank, watching Holder step up to the mike and brief the nation on an investigation and program that has been on-going for nearly two years was particularly galling. The cynic in me must ask, did he just make public and conclude a program that was designed to be ongong?

#7 One is indeed forced to wonder, given mention in the last few days of taxing marijuana sales.

#9 I just got through watching a prescient musical docudrama on this administration last night, dating from 1933. The Mexican kerfuffle is explained in the last verse:

"If any form of pleasure is exibited
Report to me and it will be prohibited
I'll put my foot down, so shall it be
This is the land of the free

The last man nearly ruined this place
He didn't know what to do with it
If you think this country's bad off now,
Just wait 'til I get through with it

The country's taxes must be fixed
And I know what to do with it
If you think you're paying too much now
Just wait till I get throught with it

*whistle*

I will not stand for anything that's crooked or unfair.
I'm strictly on the upper knot, so everyone beware!
If any man's caught taking graft, and I don't get my share,
We stand'im up against the wall and pop!Goes the weasel."

#10 Yawn. Over many long years I've heard the government make announcements like this time and time again. It never seems to make any difference. Meanwhile Mexico has devolved into a lawless narco state. When the border is lined with heavily armed troops who have orders to shoot to kill, I'll believe the government is getting serious. Until then the stench of corruption is sickening on both sides of the border.
