Clinton: DOJ didn't give State a ‘heads up’ about Fast and Furious
The Hill ^ | 10/27/11 12:37 PM ET | By Joshua Altman

Posted on 10/27/2011 8:11:58 PM PDT by Texas Fossil

Secretary of State Hillary Clinton told lawmakers Thursday that she had not been notified by the Justice Department about a botched, international gun-tracking program has been linked to the death of a Border Patrol agent.

Appearing before the House Foreign Affairs committee, Clinton was questioned by Rep. Connie Mack (R-Fla.) about the State Department’s involvement in the controversial Fast and Furious operation that has triggered hearings on Capitol Hill.

There is a video of her testimony at the link.

Der Hilderbeats does not like to be questioned. Some things do not change.

Remember the Rose Law Firm testimony? and her answer? "I cannot recall."

She’s lying. This time it may land her in prison.

Never mind that her "under the radar" fingerprints are all over it.

Yeah, the DOJ forgot to inform her of actions that had “international incident” written all over them. Sorry, Hilly, I was born at night, but not last night.

I don’t think she is lying.

I believe the ATF & Justice jumped the shark with this whole mess.They did Obama’s bidding as ordered.

She is up to her saggy gobble gobble neck in F&F.

Messy stuff, this. Like trying to eat waffles without getting syrup on your fork and fingers.

She should be having flashbacks about now about Ft. Marcy Park and her retaliation lover..

Of course she isn’t ever to be believed.

About anything.

Eventually all these denials will trip them up
cause somewhere it’s in evidence.

It only takes one to make the stammering begin.

I seriously doubt that the planners to this whole thing ever talked to the State Department at all. You would think...anything crossing US borders would have to be explained out...but I doubt they ever spoke. Same thing for the CIA keeping the state department informed. Same thing for the FBI keeping the state department informed.

The comical side of this is that when she did discover the whole picture...it was via TV news...not her staff or state department intelligence ‘squad’. Luckily, she watches CNN and at least got this info four days after Fox News started to cover it. If she watched MSNBC....she’d still be in the dark, and wondering what all this talk was about.

I agree with you that she is most likely not lying. And that only makes things worse for the Obama (mal)administration, not better.

Clinton: DOJ didn't give State a ‘heads up’ about Fast and Furious

Then how did the Secretary of State know exactly when to start making the complaint about "90% of the guns used by the cartels are coming from gun dealers and gun shows in the American Southwest."

Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm???????

Yep, they and she both did Obozo's bidding. The authorization for F&F and Castaway both originated from the White Hut at 1600 Penn. Ave.

about a botched, international gun-tracking program

Why do they keep calling this a gun tracking program?

Because to admit otherwise indicates the true aim and source of this operation, crippling the 2nd Amendment and the White Hut at 1600 Penn Ave.

She’s lying. This time it may land her in prison.

If their GD lips are moving, they're lying.

She says she don't know when the State Dept knew of Fast and Furious? Said the State Dept has no record of an international operation involving weapons transfer to murderers and terrorist gangs?

She tells him she has no knowledge or documentation, then says, "well give me some time, and I'll check into it and look further?"

Huh?

The freaking Secretary of State don't know if the GD State Department has knowledge of an international operation of shipping firearms across international borders to murderers and terrorist?

BTW, you's have a better chance of juggling flaming chain saws while roller skating, than this government prosecuting and sentencing Hillary to prison.

I agree with you.

Hatred of the Hildebeast is no reason to be blind to the fact that by failing to notify the State Department of the intention to deliver arms to Mexican cartels, the Obama Justice Department has committed a crime. Hillary’s testimoney went a long way down the road to make that case.
