More verification?
Several Senators have yanked the nomination hearings of Obama's ATF Head nominee and have called openly for Congressional hearings into the train wreck.
DOJ and ATF will not comment even off the record but are going like gang busters to silence the ATF whistle blowers.

have been on this story for a couple of months, put it on Sen Grassley’s radar too. It is really shocking that the Federal government would do this in the first place, and as always, its the cover-up that will cook their goose.
ATF used gun dealers in Arizona as confidential informants to sell large quantities of weapons through straw buyers. Instead of intercepting those weapons prior to them being smuggled across the border, ATF managers ordered field agents to let the smugglers succeed. Two of those weapons, tracked by serial number were found at the shooting of BP agent Terry.
Sounds very consistent to the rumor mill within DHS, as well.
