The Fast and Furious program of providing tons of guns to the drug cartels now implicates the FBI, because the FBI would have needed to approve the sale of all those guns to known felons. Rep. Issa is investigating these events and the media is totally ignoring them.
It is interesting to speculate exactly what it would take to get media coverage of this debacle. Maybe nude tweet photos of the felons while making the purchase of 360 weapons? Or maybe one of the felons has a cross tatoo?
Nah. It is essential to cover it up to protect the Leftists who perpetrated this criminal activity. After all, they say that their intentions were good - so that makes everything OK, including all the bloodshed and death. Eggs:omelet, ya know.
Good job guys, keep those intentions pure, and shred the results.

VIDEO: ATF agent who implemented 'Fast and Furious' says 4 federal agencies were 'full partners'
Four federal agencies were "full partners" in the Obama administration's bungled Operation Fast and Furious, which allowed guns to wind up in the hands of Mexican drug lords, the man who implemented the program revealed today at a hearing of the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.
William Newell, the former head of the Phoenix field office of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, was pressed by Rep. Pat Meehan, R-Penn. to identify all the federal agencies involved in the operation.
In response, Newell identified the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement, the Drug Enforcement Administration, and the Internal Revenue Service as "full partners" with the ATF.
The DEA and ATF are both part of the Department of Justice and ICE is part of the Department of Homeland Security.

Just so you know, the last time you said Fast and Furious wouldn't be covered in the news, I saw it in every news show I watched that night, including The Daily Show.
Well, that's very good. I don't watch those shows with any regularity, and I admit to being surprised. Is the press finally de-infatuated with the Obama charm? What an amazing development. I'll tune in tomorrow.
"It is interesting to speculate exactly what it would take to get media coverage of this debacle."
I can think of two things. If they could pin it to a Republican presidential hopeful, or if Obama loses enough support from the Democrat Party kingmakers and they want him out of the way.
