He was also smarter. This gang actually believed they could run F&F as an illegal covert op, involving a case of 100s,and get away with it.

Some seriously stupid planners on their team.

Maybe. If not for the 2010 GOP takeover of the House, it’s unlikely anything would have been done at all. F&F shows a deeply unsettling lack of concern by Obama’s top decision-makers about committing boatloads of felonies.

Until we start seeing criminal indictments and convictions, it remains quite possible that they were right.

And Sarah Palin wants to believe that she can clean this mess up from the outside. I think that she got lobotomized last month.

Finally, the Fast and Furious scandal has now become a large-scale criminal investigation. It has enveloped several agencies, including the Justice Department; the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms; the Federal Bureau of Investigation; the Drug Enforcement Administration; the U.S. attorney's office in Arizona; and now even the White House.

The fact that Eric Holder will likely never appoint a special counsel makes it even more imperative that the office of the Justice Department inspector general should be above reproach.

AlGore called this

"No Controlling Legal Authority"

“if you want to get away with the perfect crime, control the investigation.”

If Holder & the Obama did not know about F&F, why are they not demanding the heads of those who did?
