. . . and? He ignored a judge amongst other unsavory things he did for publicity or because his obsessions kept him away from what he was supposed to be doing, upholding the law. Lawmen are charged with upholding the law, not questioning or being combative about. Your hero wasn't good at upholding the rule of law and actually broke it, period.

Maybe, but without Obama and holder getting involved it never would have happened, kind of like those guns going to Mexico and killing US border agents.

Funny how you go with the company line on those and ignore the whole story.

So the thrust of the GOP storyline is overzealous gun-grabbers at Obama’s ATF took risks that led directly to the murder of a Border Patrol agent.

But the piece in Fortune, in which reporter Katherine Eban interviewed many of the agents involved for the first time ever, completely demolishes this version of events. (It’s worth a full read).

Eban reveals that the ATF never intentionally walked the guns, save one important exception that we’ll get to momentarily. Instead, they were unable to obtain warrants to arrest the purchasers. Prosecutors were extremely wary of arresting straw buyers, either for fear of retribution from the NRA—who hammered ATF in 2005 for seizing guns from a straw buyer—or because they were gun aficionados themselves. One local prosecutor was reportedly seen behind a table at a gun show and was philosophically opposed to those arrests.

So, unable to arrest the buyers, the agent running Fast and Furious resigned his unit to simply tracking the purchases in hopes of using the evidence later. This is a world away from purposefully letting the guns go, and Eban chronicles numerous efforts by the ATF agents to overcome bureaucratic and legal obstacles and arrest the buyers—they just weren’t able to do it.

The one exception is agent John Dodson, who used $2,500 in taxpayer money to buy six guns from a local dealer, passed them to a trafficker, and then took a long vacation. This is the only proven instance of gun-walking under Fast and Furious—and Dodson, incredibly, was the “brave whistleblower” who exposed the entire operation.

Eban reports that Dodson hated his boss Dave Voth because Voth supposedly “treated him like shit.” Dodson disobeyed a direct order from Voth not to walk guns in this manner—and then, a few months later, went to CBS News with allegations that the ATF “ordered” him to walk guns and that in fact it was a common practice there.

CBS News never fully checked out his story, and never talked to Voth—and still hasn’t retracted the piece. Yet neither Dodson nor anyone else has ever proven there were orders to perform gun-walking, nor proven any other episode other that Dodson’s own. (Voth was deeply shocked by Dodson’s actions—a “blow he couldn’t fathom,” according to Eban, who added that he began losing weight and sleep. “There would be no way,” Both is quoted as saying, “to foreshadow this.”)

Arpaio and his backers largely blame the Obama administration for his troubles. Trump even said the timing of the contempt case being brought two weeks before the election cost Arpaio his job.
“Thank you @realdonaldtrump for seeing my conviction for what it is: a political witch hunt by holdovers in the Obama justice department!” Arpaio said in a tweet shortly after the president issued the pardon.

The truth is the civil rights cases that were the source of Arpaio’s legal problems began during the administration of President George W. Bush, and the judge who recommended the contempt-of-court charge against the Republican sheriff is a conservative who was appointed by Bush.

The judge who found Arpaio guilty of a crime was nominated to the bench by President Bill Clinton.

Are you talking about "see you at the bill signing" GWB?
I am sure the corrupt Obama admin didn't intend to kill Americans, but that is what happens when you have dopes in positions of power and that is a lot of dopes.

I thought a news article by a trusted conservative leaning newspaper of record that clearly stated the fact Arpaio was convicted by a federal court of a felony will put to rest any doubting Thomases. Alas, it likely will not.

San Diego Tribune is NOT Conservative leaning....
It's a Liberal Rag that fully endorsed Hillary Rodham Clinton....
Once again ..You are a LIAR !

Sheriff Joe Arpaio was convicted of a made up crime ....

He detained Illegal Immigrants LEGALLY, a MADE UP LAW was
used to trap the Sheriff in Court.
EVERYTHING Judge Susan Bolton did was despicable and below the
belt......She should have been removed immediately.

Just because you posted a Newspaper Logo and the results of a
Crooked Judge does NOT make it RIGHT or Legal.....

Go back in the Water Bob, swim in your own poop along with
all the other water born Lemming......
 
Can anyone identify an objectively “conservative” leaning metropolitan newspaper? I’ve got an idiot I’m working a sting. Thanks.
