He really blew a good shot at Juan here. Williams says that “they” (Issa, NRA, etc) “want Holder to be the fall guy” in this mess. He should have challenged Juan with the question, “Fall guy for WHO???”

This is pure left-wing CYA propaganda.

They're just mouthing the "mistakes were made" talking points from the WH.

This wasn't a screwed up "sting operaion", it was a flat out attempt to manufacture evidence to back up the claims of an "iron river" of guns flowing into Mexico from the US, and justify more gun control legislation.

Good point. He DID blow a golden opportunity.

Wouldn't it be a gas if the replacement show for Beck featured panels of four Freepers and Bob Beckel or Juan Williams every day instead of the already over-exposed Fox regulars?

Freepers are way ahead of these highly-paid pundits....many of whom are no-way-near being as informed, verbally adept, quick on the uptake and deadly sharp as Freepers.

I'd actually pay Fox to be a panelist!

What is it with Hume, lately? He used to be such a tough questioner. I think “senior analyst” has actually made him reticent.

This was a covert operation that was designed to discredit gun ownership and gun purchasing

Absolutely agree and Zer0 was in this up to his eyeballs. I doubt he'll be touched by the investigation but hopefully they'll get his lapdog Holder.

It is also a legitimat act of war against Mexico, as well as a violation of [our] treaty with them [Mexico].
