Operation Fast & Furious

[TAB]

Must have been part of their "punishment" for Waco.

Just more of th e9/11 aftermath bull shit that went down.

Eric Holder claims he did not have any knowledge of Fast and Furious until a few weeks before his March hearings before Congress..So when did this story actually break..From what I can find Senator Grassley was on this at least as far back as 2/11 when Assistant Attorney general Ronald Weich (2/4/11) denied allegations into project Gunrunner. Boarder Patrol Agent Brian Terry was murdered on 12/14/2010.. How can this administration deny knowledge of this when $10,000,000.00 was funded directly for Project Gunrunner in the H.R. 1 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act of 2009..aka Obama Stimulus Package..This project did not just magically appear! This current adminstration should all be up on felony charges...

No doubt they should, Bob. Holder is on the record as having talked up the whole Gunrunner program back in '09 quite proudly IIRC.

My guess is he won't be AG very long, but he will not do time or even stand trial.

It was done when the DHS was created and the Border Patrol and Customs was made part of it.

In a letter to Congress, Attorney General Eric Holder has gone on the record with the most details yet about what he and other Justice Department officials knew about ATF's Fast and Furious operation, even though memos surfaced earlier this week showing multiple briefing memos mentioning Fast and Furious were sent to him as early as July of last year.

Holder says that his testimony to Congress, stating he first heard of Fast and Furious earlier this year, "was truthful and accurate... I have no recollection of knowing about Fast and Furious prior to the public controversy about it."

In his letter, Holder also criticized the House Committee investigating Fast and Furious, saying he cannot sit idly by "as law enforcement and government employees who devote their lives to protecting our citizens be considered 'accessories to murder'."

The Attorney General says that while he was sent received memos on Fast and Furious, they are "actually provided to and reviewed by members of my staff and the staff of the Office of the Deputy Attorney General."

Holder blamed Congress for failing to consider whether "additional tools are needed to stem the flow of guns to Mexico" and warned "until we move beyond the current political climate..nothing is going to change."

Hopefully that 'change' will be in Jan. 2013.
I pray that the dilwad is forced to resign before then!!

Never confess, always deny, make counter accusations....the sacred mantra of criminals and liars.
