Even allowing for the possibility (and I don’t believe this possibility for a minute), where FF was up and running before he became AG, he could have modified parts of it.

He’s top dog, he could have cancelled it at anytime. His lack of action suggests that he supported it.

Here comes the white-wash.

Holder has Boehner to thank for the new ‘kid gloves’ treatment.

Wonder how many times Holder has gotten out of bed in the morning wishing he had never heard of Obama.

It will be more interesting when the reverse of that becomes true.

I believe Holder’s “investigation” of F&F has now taken longer than the Warren Commission...

In the sound bite I heard on Special Report Holder flat out said "As soon as I heard about the practice ("walking" guns) I put an end to it." He went on to reiterate that by saying that he told all of his subordinates to cease and never do anything like that again. Flat out lies IMO but this article makes it sound like he was still hedging.

the nation’s top cop emphasized that “aggressive” and “creative” tactics must be used if the United States has any hope of stopping the flow of weapons to Mexico.

Bull! The "aggressive," "creative" tactics were to smuggle guns to the drug cartels so the guns could be seized by Mexican law enforcement to present before press conferences, in order to gin up support for draconian gun control laws.

Knowing how Obama and his regime hate guns AND gun owners, it must REALLY grate on him, knowing that he's considered the #1 gun salesman in the country!

Why hasn’t Holder been indicted for lying to Congress?

IMHO, Fast & Furious and its sister operations in other states get resolved on Election Day. Remember, taxpayers are on the hook for damages to the Zapata and Terry families plus hundreds of Mexican families.

Check comment# 3 on this first link re: #EFAD.

So then if Holder and the DOJ didn’t initally give approval of moving weapons across an international border I assume that someone in the State Department led and approved Fast and Furious?

There are lies and then there are LIES, the latter being premeditated and developed in committees, and run by the legal dept.

The best and perhaps only chance of stopping the flow of weapons to Mexico short of imposing a Stalinist tyranny is to legalize the use of drugs in America.

stopping the flow of weapons to Mexico.....Bush’s DOJ came to the conclusion that “there is no iron pipeline” to Mexico according to a 2006 report. After Hillary stated 98% of Mexico’s guns came from th US, some fact checker wrote that only 17% of Mexico’s guns came from here. That pissed of Hillary and Obama (who used her figures in a speech) and,voila! We have F&F to up those statistics.

Gift wrapping and ribbons, perhaps?

Perhaps with a decorative hallmark card?

"Roses are red, violets are blue, we're shafting the American people, and this AK's for you"?
