Not only did U.S. officials approve, allow and assist in the sale of more than 2,000 guns to the Sinaloa cartel -- the federal government used taxpayer money to buy semi-automatic weapons, sold them to criminals and then watched as the guns disappeared.
This disclosure, revealed in documents obtained by Fox News, could undermine the Department of Justice's previous defense that Operation Fast and Furious was a "botched" operation where agents simply "lost track" of weapons as they were transferred from one illegal buyer to another. Instead, it heightens the culpability of the federal government as Mexico, according to sources, has opened two criminal investigations into the operation that flooded their country with illegal weapons.

Ahem, this is the ONLY kind of money the Federal Gov't has. The Federal Goverment does not generate it's own wealth ...
Hey, Foxnews.
There is progress at foot.
1/2 black - nothing happens
In order to “lose track” of something, you have to keep track of it first.
Besides us dumbass's money?
Peter principal - they all got promoted.
Unwilling to take it to the top and blame the emperor
My head is exploding! Send them to jail and do not pass go. Do not collect $200. Send all of them from Obama and Holder down.
“these clowns”?
What about the “Won” who directed them.
That's what I was thinking at first: 'What a dumb comment - the only money that the Fed's have is taxpayer money'.
But I think the original meme was that 'private citizens' (...as I suppose you could call the Cartel gang) were purchasing these guns without review - and the Feds were letting the guns to 'walk across the border'. This new wrinkle is that apparently the Feds were also buying the guns and then either giving (or selling) them directly to the Cartel...
Drudge put it up. Finally.
Government buying them with taxpayer money, selling to the cartel, Food Stamp President’s re-election campaign getting the proceeds less DOJ, ATF, etc. cost of doing business commissions.
So Drudge finally has his “smoking gun”? How...recent of him.
Either that or he felt slighted that Issa had a meeting with bloggers, and he felt left out. lol
I called ABC News in New York (212-456-4040) and told them that I was a long time viewer who was getting tired of them ignoring this story. I mentioned that CBS News had good coverage and that maybe I’d be switching channels!
Perhaps if their switchboard is innundated with people wanting information about F & F they’ll get the message. When the chips are down, they will care more about their own careers than protecting Bambi. If we can get the MSM to break the embargo on this story, people will be lining up to get immunity in exchange for their testimony...
Good idea!
Not that ABC needs to know this, but Freepers and bloggers have said that CBS is only reporting F & F on their website -— i.e., that they have never reported on air.
