The Wikipedia story includes this sentence:

"Operation Wide Receiver did not allow guns to be 'walked' into Mexico, as the straw purchasers were apprehended before they could move the weapons to Mexico."

So, while it is possible (maybe even probable) that the BATFE under Bush administration ran a gun smuggling sting, there is at least one very important difference between "Wide Receiver" and "Fast and Furious".

Yes and thank you but they don’t want that coming out.The mere fact they are using this to wiggle out of crimes is so pathetic.They tried it with gunrunner vs. fast and furious in blaming Bush it did not work .
