When the Law of Attraction Doesn't Work So Well - Magical Thinking -- Hollywood and Politics

I think most all of us by now have heard of, The Secret or The Law of Attraction. Overall, these type of books give readers advice on the value of positive thinking. You are encouraged to focus on the things you want in your life and visualize them as if they are already there. Some of these books encourage you to keep a journal or make a visual board, where you keep yourself focused on your goals. Gratitude is another emotion that is important for a person to have and this will help bring your desires into your life faster.

So why am I bringing this topic up?

Why I'm Excited About Romney

The election is approaching and all I can think about is how the night is going to play out. As an eternal optimist, I feel Romney will win and I also have a feeling he's going to win big.

Romney was not my first choice in the primary. I actually was not initially impressed by him but as I have gotten to know more about him, I have grown to appreciate him as someone who I believe will not behave like a dictator but rather a leader, which we so desperately need right now in our country.

Rare Disclosure - Four Linked to Fast and Furious

As Laura E. Duffy, middle, United States Attorney Southern District of California, speaks James L. Turgal, Jr., right, FBI Special Agent in Charge, and Richard Barlow, Chief of Tucson Sector of U.S. Border Patrol, both listen during a news briefing announcing an indictment on five suspects related to the death of U.S. Border Patrol agent Brian Terry, Monday, July 9, 2012, in Tucson, Ariz. A reward of up to $1 million dollars for information leading to the arrest of four fugitives was also announced.

Now that pressure has been applied to Eric Holder, an announcement came of four people who have been linked to the failed operation of Fast and Furious. They are asking for help to capture them.
The announcement comes in the wake of pressure from U.S. House Republicans who led a vote to hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt of Congress, criticizing the nation's top prosecutor for withholding information related to the probe. 
"We believe it's in the best interest of this ongoing investigation to unseal the case at this point in time and to enlist the assistance of the general publics in both Mexico and the United States," said federal prosecutor Laura Duffy. She said the decision to release the information came independently and would not discuss the recent congressional action against Holder.

The FBI says it is seeking information related to Jesus Rosario Favela-Astorga, 31, Ivan Soto-Barraza, 34, Heraclio Osorio-Arellanes, 34, and Lionel Portillo-Meza.
 Isn't this interesting?
The FBI, ATF, and U.S. Customs and Border Protection have all denied Freedom of Information Act requests that seek reports and other documents in the investigation of the shooting.
So much for transparency. I would like to know what exactly it is they are hiding from the American people? All this secrecy only makes people more curious and we already know the government messed up. So again, what the hell are they hiding? The only thing I can think of that explains this insistence of secrecy would be that Obama knew about this operation first hand.

So, I'm not really buying the whole, "2nd Amendment Attack" because this would not be the route to go. Plus, conspiracies are so stupid. This is more of a sign of PURE incompetence in this entire administration and the fact that they are incompetent proves that this was no conspiracy.

Holder should just be arrested. I can hear the calls from around the country had this been John Ashcroft.

Fast and Furious - Nobody Lied

AP file photo.

Eric Holder, the Attorney General stated that nobody at the DOJ had lied about Fast and Furious.

The result of this program was Mexican drug lords being heavily armed. Holder did admit that Congress was giving inaccurate information.
Last week, the DOJ took the rare step of formally withdrawing a letter it sent to Congress in February that falsely claimed the program being executed by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives did not allow guns to "walk" into Mexico.
