So Senator Lieberman is not calling it an "investigation". I wonder if it will become one.

[marktwain]

Gunwalker ping.

I predict this will be “examined” until well past the 2012 elections, then fade into obscurity

[Logical me]

Lets hope the little jackass remembers that Fast and Furious is treason.

Question for everyone:

If I, private citizen, had sold 2,000 guns to Mexican gangs and the Justice department found out about it -

a) what would U.S. law enforcement and the U.S. criminal justice system have done to me, and

b) how long would it have taken them ?

"to examine miscommunication between law enforcement agencies related to the Justice Department’s Operation Fast and Furious. "

See... I was just a HUGH misunderstanding... that's all../s

Nothing more to 'investigate'.. Just move along now...

[Dogbert41]

Almost sounds as if Lieberman is running interference. So the problem with Fast and Furious was mis-communication between agencies???

Is there a spot for him on the next space shuttle? Oh wait, we don’t have space shuttles anymore...

[Bigh4u2]

I = IT..

(wasn't me...seriesly...) :)

That's what Richard Nixon hoped about Watergate which didn't blow up in his face until AFTER the election.

Holder is dirty BIG TIME. Needs to be pressured , prosecuted and put in prison. Have any of our wonderful candidates running for office commented on this yet ?

[silverleaf]

he was a republican

republican scandals always remain fair game

[headstamp 2]

This is more like trying to control the outcome rather than any meaningful investigation. Not calling for Holder to resign is the tip off.

Holy Joe is up from his nap.

[rocksblues]

As soon as I read this it smelled like a cover up.

[rhombus]

Very true but I figure if Obama is re-elected as everyone around here predicts, we’ll see more people talking about this. Of course it will do about as much good as impeaching Clinton for lying under oath but it will keep the WH busy trying to explain away their gun crimes.

[MestaMachine]

“Senator Lieberman is not calling it an ‘investigation’.”

Ping.

[dagogo redux]

The fix - or at least another layer of it - is in.

[little jeremiah]

What’s your take on this?

[HenpeckedCon]

“What’s your take on this?”

You didn't ask me, but I'll give you my opinion. As much as Lieberman is a Liberal on social issues, he still loves the country. He's not running for reelection and the Moonbats already hate him. He might just go after Holder?
