Top Department of Justice officials had extensive knowledge of and involvement in Operation Fast and Furious, claims a new report released Thursday, hours before Attorney General Eric Holder's scheduled testimony to the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee.

The report released by Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif., and Sen. Charles Grassley, R-Iowa, top lawmakers investigating the botched gunrunning operation, claims Justice Department officials in Washington and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives were involved in the coordination in the early stages of the operation.

One count of selling a gun to an illegal alien. Maybe he should have claimed to be a part of `Fast and Furious’?

No trial should be held until after the election. Obama will just give him a full pardon.

Hold on a minute there! I’d put a hold on holding Holder in contempt. Get him for lying!

Maybe Issa should hold his proceedings in Mexico and subpoena Holder there.

"top lawmakers investigating the botched gunrunning operation, "

Stop it! Just Stop It!. This was NOT a botched gunrunning operation. THIS WAS A CRIMINAL GUNRUNNING OPERATION. The criminals were Eric Holder and those at the BATFE and maybe even Obama. WE MUST PROSECUTE THESE PEOPLE OR WE ARE NO LONGER HAVE A LEGITIMATE JUSTICE SYSTEM OR ANY NOTION OF THE RULE OF LAW.

I think it’s worse than that. I think it was an intentional effort to arm the Sinaloa cartel.

Problem is, I just saw Grassly on the news and he said they wanted to know who authorized it so they could be “fired”. Gee, I bet they are scared.

So, either Holder and Zero get the axe, or we have a war with MExico. Wow. Which will it be Congress? America? Games games games... this is so stupid. Who are we going to make it pay?
