Holder requests Fast and Furious docs from Issa, Grassley for ‘independent’ investigation
Daily Caller ^ | 8/17/11 | Matthew Boyle

Posted on 08/17/2011 8:25:42 PM PDT by Nachum

The Department of Justice says its Office of Inspector General is conducting an independent investigation into the gunwalking Operation Fast and Furious, which Congress is already probing. Attorney General Eric Holder requested a transcript of Sen. Chuck Grassley and Rep. Darrell Issa from their secret July 4th meeting with Ken Melson, acting Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives director. Holder and other DOJ officials have repeatedly said the DOJ’s Inspector General is doing its own internal investigation into what went wrong with Fast and Furious.

When Holder finally testifies before Congress, if he vows to “Find the real killers,” everybody on FR owes me $5.

If we had a conservative Speaker we’d already have a Special Prosecutor.

Yeppers. Holder wants to know what and who, so the coverup can begin.

I hope Issa doesn’t give him anything! Sheesh, hiring a pedophile to head up the child porn investigation.

Issa should tell Holder to come and personally get them from his office.

Then, Issa should plant a couple guys in KKK garb outside his office with billy clubs.

Does Philly ring a bell Eric?

“Sounds more like building an assassination list, not just a coverup.”

He’s just being a lawyer. He wants to make sure future Justice Dept witnesses have a chance to have rehersed responses to the most damaging documents and that they say “I don’t know” where the documents would contradict their testimony.

Trying to blame the accuser?

You ain’t smart by 1/2.

You guys are the ones providing the documents.

What’s to inspect?

If Holder wants secret documents, he should send Sandy Burger over to pick them up. But all Holder can do is ask.

If he's smart, he'll contract out for some dirty tricks to blackmail the congressmen. It worked for Bill Clinton.

I disagree. Once a Special Prosecutor takes over, there will be no further Congressional hearings. The issue will disappear from view and nothing will be made public before Nov 2012. This crime needs to be exploited, not hidden.

Fast and Furious is a gift from Obama we should not squander. I hope Issa slow walks his inquiry. Plan the hearings and revelations such that a Contempt of Congress citation is issued against Holder next August. Follow that with his prosecution and careful leaks that implicate Obama all the way up to the election.

Two can play the October surprise game. Let's do it.
