Did President Obama know about "Fast and Furious"? According to Deputy Attorney General David Ogden he ordered the Justice Department to institute the program. Watch this clip from a press conference in March, 2009.
More video evidence:
Did you notice that the addition of BATFE agents in Mexico was for the sole purpose of “tracing” firearms?
Yes, folks. Here is where they were setting the stage to ensure they could support their 90% number. First, funnel the firearms into the cartel’s hands, then trace them back so you can say our dealers are the problem.
Unfortunately, the drug cartels spread the weapons around, so big numbers never ended up at one crime scene.
Gunrunner was a Bush program. It was changed to Fast & Furious under Obama.
1993 - Branch Davidians - Waco, TX
2010 - Agent Brian Terry - Baja, AZ
Two events staged in an effort to call for more gun control.
Both botched by the BATFE
But WHO are the common denominators in these two events?
Remember who said “Elect me and you get two for the price of one”?
Remember who joined the DOJ under Janet Reno in 1993?
Answer: Hillary Clinton and Eric Holder
And this is a poster that ought be on every street corned in da US of A
From what I understand (and I worry this is going to hang a lot of conservatives) is that GunRUNNER is not the same as GunWALKER: Fast and Furious.
Yes, here is a good description of the two operations.

Walk. Run. What’s the difference. Let the heads roll.
Amen, brother!
Please don’t forget Jaime Zapata, undercover ICE agent murdered by walked guns in Mexico. SOMEBODY gave him up.
Fast and Furious was instituted by the Obama administration, as an offshoot of Gunrunner.
Mentions of Gunrunner do not necessarily indicate knowledge of Fast and Furious and the gunwalking scandal.
While the words don’t matter to you, the words matter to the PROGRAM and as long as people keep harping on “they knew!!!” when they are talking about GunRUNNER, it will invalidate the fact that they DID know about GunWALKER before.
