Lanny Breuer, the Justice Department’s assistant attorney general who runs the criminal division, tells The Wall Street Journal that he wishes he had acted to prevent the “gun-walking” tactics that are under scrutiny in the Fast and Furious operation:
The earlier operation that caused concern was known as Wide Receiver, which Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agents in Arizona ran in 2006-2007. ...
Here is the kicker to me. "Somebody" went on to knowingly and deliberately use in Gunrunner, and repeatedly, the one single illegal aspect of Wide Receiver which caused the program to be canceled.
Apologies and "regret" doesn't cut it by a long shot!
They’re spin is all over the media so maybe it will be believed by the time Holder testifies again.It is pathetic.

We’re fortunate to be paying Lanny to help poor H0lder. Think how bad things would be without Lanny’s guidance.
Lanny and his staff should have reacted with alarm when he first heard about Gunrunner.
Ooops...silly me. Lanny and his staff didn't know anything about Gunrunner so how could Lanny and his staff have reacted to that. My bad.
Johnny Sutton was surely a Saint.
Appears they have read their Orwell!
I think bottom line Melson’s secret testimony indicts Obama and Holder but where is Melson? Oh that’s right he was shoved into a very nice corner office and replaced with a terrorists sympathizer

Who in their right mind doesn't say half-truths?
And half-truths are nothing but CYA lies.
And the parson made it his text that week, and he said likewise,
That a lie which is half a truth is ever the blackest of lies,
That a lie which is all a lie may be met and fought with outright,
But a lie which is part a truth is a harder matter to fight.
Alfred Lord Tennyson
Wouldn't you just love to be able to read what is on that paper under Holder's left hand.

We have a sacrificial lamb for the Great Cover Up.
My thoughts as well but the blame Bush crap won’t work.Holder saying he was thinking about another operation under Bush when he was asked about fast and furious won’t work.
Holder is saying...don’t worry we have Cummings to leak to us what they will do next and deflect.
Yep, Holder has pulled one noose from around his neck and replaced it with another. The more culpability they place on the Bush era program the more responsibility Holder has to take for its continuance and its reemergence in a new and even more irresponsible program.
BTTT!
