Agent Terry's Family Releases Statement on Executive Privilege and Contempt Charges


“Attorney General Eric Holder’s refusal to fully disclose the documents associated with Operation Fast and Furious and President Obama’s assertion of executive privilege serves to compound this tragedy. It denies the Terry family and the American people the truth.”
The Terrys said that their son “was killed by members of a Mexican drug cartel armed with weapons from this failed Justice Department gun trafficking investigation. For more than 18 months we have been asking our federal government for justice and accountability. The documents sought by the House Oversight Committee and associated with Operation Fast and Furious should be produced and turned over to the committee. Our son lost his life protecting this nation, and it is very disappointing that we are now faced with an administration that seems more concerned with protecting themselves rather than revealing the truth behind Operation Fast and Furious.”
These people buried their child.  They deserve to know why.

Amy Winehouse Dead at 27

Amy Winehouse dead today at 27.  The details of her death are unknown at this point, but chances are they are drug or alcohol releated.  It seems singing and destroying her life were two things she excelled at. 

 
Winehouse was a rare talent, one that comes once in a generation.  Her vocal capabilities left one breathless. 







Her unique sound and sense of style will be missed.  May she finally find  the peace that escaped her during her short time on earth. 


Rest in Peace Amy.  Maybe she should have said yes to Rehab.
