Fox news reports almost two-dozen largely unemployed men bought 1,026 assault weapons with $650,000 in just over four months, then smuggled the guns to Mexico while under surveillance. That is only part of the 2500 weapons involved.

I still wonder how they were smuggled across the border. The Border Patrol under current operation guidelines confiscates drug money and weapons going into Mexico. Looks like the Border Patrol was told by someone to ignore the Fast and Furious weapon smuggling. Who authorized that and how high up in Homeland Security was it approved?

Excellent questions. Perhaps Issa will tell us?

Yet Holder arrogantly leads his brigade to gallantly sue states that try to protect their own for the illegal invasion...go figure.

Holder, Obama and everyone else involved in arming drug cartels will be arrested once Romney is elected. I can't wait to see the perp-walks. These criminals deserve a life sentence in federal prison, if not the death penalty.

Daily Horoscope for May 22

Libra

Be very careful when handling financial matters today because not everything is as straightforward as it seems. For instance, someone may tell you about a fail-safe way of making money but neglect to mention all the reasons why it's totally illegal. There could also be mistakes if you're spending money, such as being short-changed or overcharged. So watch out!
