Fast and Furious is another amateurish spectacle. It appears that the motivation was to “prove” that Mexican drug cartels were using weapons imported from the United States. These people are imbelices.
Operationally Fast and Furious reminds me more of Iran Contra.
I have no objections to Iran-Contra as its purpose was to help the Nicaraguan freedom fighters fight communism. Iran Contra had a noble objective. Fast and Furious is as dumb as it gets.
But both did involve shipment of weapons across borders.
The only Watergate connection is the cover up. Who knew what and when ?
