WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department has provided Congress with 1,364 pages of documents detailing how the department gave inaccurate information to a U.S. senator in the controversy surrounding Operation Fast and Furious, the flawed law enforcement initiative aimed at dismantling major arms trafficking networks on the Southwest border.
In a letter last February to Charles Grassley, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, the Justice Department said that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms had not knowingly allowed the sale of assault weapons to a straw purchaser

These fascist pigs at AP sure know how to lie in order to cover up for their racist, Nazi masters.
The more accurate lead paragraph:
Congressional investigators have received incontrovertible evidence that President Obuma and his racist head of the Justice Department, Eric Holder, have lied to Congress about running assault weapons, grenades and .50 caliber machineguns to Mexican druglords. Druglords used these weapons to ambush and murder a US border patrol agent. Since obama began running illegal weapons into Mexico, the deaths of Mexican citizens have doubled, and that violence is spilling into the American Southwest.
DoJ makes 'rare exception' to explain deception...
Raises more questions about Fast & Furious...
Also like his giant headline to this thread's article:
FRIDAY NIGHT DOCUMENT DUMP
I can explain it in three word: “They friggin lied.”
“It took 1,364 pages of documents to say “we lied”?”
EXACTLY!
ALL: Drudge has two more headlines up:
Justice Withdraws Inaccurate 'Fast And Furious' Letter It Sent To Congress
Issa says Holder ouster is up to White House
“(Mr. Holder) did not order this operation,” Mr. Issa said. “He didn’t demand they do something this stupid.” He said Mr. Holder should fix the problem and it was up to the White House to decide whether the attorney general should go.
Mr. Issa said congressional investigators had established that Fast and Furious was a “dumb program” and were now looking into a suspected “coverup” and also trying make sure a similar operation never happens again.
Is Issa preparing to be satisfied with Holder's "innocence"?
“1,364 pages of documents detailing how the department gave inaccurate information to a U.S. senator in the controversy surrounding Operation Fast and Furious”
Oh boy.
Everywhere I have ever worked, and I have supervised many people, I was held accountable for my ‘team’. Even if Holder did not know what was going on he should lose his job for incompetence. In the real world that is exactly what would happen.
Holder didn’t order it. You know who did. Like a good nazi, he “just followed orders”. He is still complicit in MURDER, Issa. Murder. TWO agents, not just one. TWO! And many civilians, some of whom were ALSO Americans.
BOTH agents were compromised by these bastards...and one was possibly DELIBERATELY exposed by them.
They hung good nazis.
He knew.
Not disagreeing with a word of your post, BUT read Issa’s quote again in my post. Issa will not go after Holder OR you-know-who.
I pray that these no-integrity, America-hating louts will end up in Leavenworth...if not that, then, Hell. What shameless losers.
From my post:
“He is still complicit in MURDER, Issa. Murder.”
I agree with you.
Do you remember that graphic of Obama & Holder behind bars that some freeper used to post? I have been keeping an eye out for that graphic for months to use every time I get pinged to a Fast & Furious article, but I have not seen it in a very long time.
They both belong behind bars, but there is not enough political will to hold them accountable for anything (and there is a long list from which to choose).
Why hasn't anyone gone to jail or at least been arrested to this point?
That doesn’t sound good.
and why did Scooter Libby go to jail again?
I actually went and read the entire article. It never says how the lies were included.
