Fast and Curious

Wow, so much news today to comment on, unfortunately I don't have the time to opine on all the doings, so I pick just one....
In another blog post, I wondered aloud of the underlying purpose of the Obama regime sponsored gun running program that ultimately cost two federal agents their lives and who knows how many Mexican citizens maimed or killed. I postulated that maybe it was all rooted in some sort of macro conspiracy to aid and abet drug runners whose corrupting billions are very hard for some people to ignore. I wondered if those corrupting dollars reached the highest office in our land.
Well, there is an alternate theory. As I've mentioned before, Michael Barone is one of my favorite talking heads. In his latest blog piece Obama ticking off America's friends, he says the following:
"We don't know for sure why the ATF and Justice Department embarked on Fast and Furious. Officials are keeping mum. But no one has come up with a more plausible explanation than the charge that it was intended to make a case for gun control at home."Barone is suggesting that Obama, and his highest officials, conspired to flood the Mexican black market with American made firearms so that they could then march around that canard as a rationale for stricter gun control at home. There is something so particularly vile about this that is takes one breath away for a moment.
We know that the Obama Administration has thrown up a virtual 'blue wall of silence' surrounding this program. And we know that this means the Obama regime is hiding a dark secret.
Pause and consider it for a moment. If the Obama regime intentionally flooded Mexico with illegal guns so they could 'prove' that American gun policy was the root of all evil south of the border, then that means that President Barack Obama should be impeached. Thereafter, he and his senior henchmen should be charged with at least two counts of manslaughter and prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law.
This conspiracy theory fits much more snugly with the statist leftist/Marxist mindset than a theory about mere base corruption for the love of money. Underneath it all, a sinister malignancy willing to kill and maim in development of a false pretense to accomplish it's goals. Does that have and oddly familiar queasy-in-the-gut feel to it? Does it?
You know, while I try not to let this speculation seep too deep into my thinking, as it is not proven as fact even if it 'feels' right, I still can't shake the feeling that the only difference between Obama and Nixon is that Obama hasn't been caught 'red' handed......yet.
