Another weapon from the federal Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agency's controversial Operation Fast and Furious was recently recovered at a Mexican crime scene, CBS News has learned. Congressional investigators say the crime scene was likely where a recent shootout took place between reported Sinaloa drug cartel members and the Mexican military, in which Sinaloa beauty queen Maria Susana Flores Gamez and four others were killed.

According to Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, the Justice Department did not notify Congress of the Fast and Furious firearm recovery in November, even though Grassley has requested an accounting of weapons that surface from the case.

No doubt the administration knew of this weapon before the election and decided to keep it quiet until they had more flexibility.

Where is the media, Obama & Holder’s call for gun control on Fast and Furious? Mexico has strict gun control laws.

This was an act by Obama and Holder to undermine the stability of the Mexican government by arming drug cartels. They also attempted to undermine the 2nd Amendment rights of U.S. citizens by jacking up illegal sales of guns.

Rush covered this story during the last hour. Maybe it will get legs. He also cited a report that Obama BFFs Vlad Putin and Hugo Chavez have agreed to start a manufacturing facility for AK-47s in Venezuela. Doe this mean AKs will be cool again?

(from the article) ~ : “According to Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, the Justice Department did not notify Congress of the Fast and Furious firearm recovery in November, even though Grassley has requested an accounting of weapons that surface from the case.”

and we are surprized that there has been NO cooperation.. Why ?
Considering “ Fast and Furious “ , the “ Just-Us “ dept. has been less than cooperative .
Nine people resign from the justice Dept. ( I know ~ an oxymoron) and justice is satisfied ? Not Hardly !!
Criminal conspiracy and coercion a few steps from the Communist-in-Chief , prosecutorial misconduct and nothing else .. ?
.. and they keep their pensions ?
That’s justice ? I think NOT !
Benghazi is just “ Fast and Furious Part Deux “ .. and still no answers ..
Heads should roll !!

We have Justice denying info to Congress, we have contempt citations issued, and we have an illegal alien sexual offender's presence being kept quiet until after the election.

All this from the most open administration in history

Per CBS news: "Maria Susana Flores Gamez was likely used as a human shield"

Barry deliberately pumps "assault rifles" into Mexico resulting in 100's of deaths, doubtless including school-age children, all to create a false pretext for cutting back 2A gun rights. Then he claims executive privilege which can only apply to his WH communications w/Holder implicating himself and we get from the MSM.

It only took two years to get any answers about “Fast and Furious “ ,.. and then we only got resignations ?

Arming foreign country terrorists in Mexico and Lybia by our administration ~ truely an international embarassment !
And no prosecution ?
The adminsitration should be brought up on RICO charges !

And now it looks that the Obama Regime is making a vast and very fast effort to force a vast curtailment of the on-line weapons business with many businesses pulling their sales stock. Read later comments for some of the businesses which have folded under pressure:
