I looked at the first 2 pages of of threads and there are no less than 10 threads about Cain...he is a primary candidate....not even a sitting politician right now. Has never written any law nor has he had any affect onm our lives as Americans.
Yet over those two pages of threads, I could not find a single thread on Holden and what he said yesterday....and I would like to know why no one in the media OR Congress is asking him to rationalize something he said.....and what he said speaks volumes to me...
When asked why he was not personally aware of Fast and Furious seeing as he is the AG he responded with a very acceptable answer...well....acceptable on the outside...
(paraphrased)
"I can not know the details of every action taken by the agencies I oversee"
I understand and agree....
But then I want to know something....
Why Did he not feel the need to be directly on top of and invoolved in decisions as it pertainsed to INTENTIONALLY smuggling arms across the borders of a neighboring sovereign nation......Especially seeing as the arms were being smuggled to ENEMIES of that nation, (the drug cartels are continually assasinating government officials)
Why did congress not ask him this......
If he does not find this activity worthy of his direct oversight and knowledge and involvement....what exactly does he deem worthy of his direct oversight, knowledge and involvement?
If I were at the hearing I would have asked..
So what do you tell your staffers is worthy of your direct knowledge of? What do they use as guidelines?
