The House Oversight and Government Reform Committee is planning to subpoena Attorney General Eric Holder this week to determine who in the Justice Department knew about "Operation Fast and Furious" -- the plan to let thousands of guns sold in the U.S. get into Mexican drug cartel hands -- and when they knew it.
The subpoena targeting Holder aims to get at the heart of the authorization for the program, and when the people in charge decided the program was a problem.
When did they know it wasn't the right way to do it and why (did) they keep doing it?" asked committee chairman, Rep. Darrell Issa, R-Calif.
Issa, who is also a member of the House Judiciary Committee where Holder testified in May that he'd only learned of the program a few weeks earlier, told "Fox News Sunday" that "people in the top" of the Justice Department knew about the operation, were "well-briefed about it, and seemed to be the command and control and funding for this program."

Aw, but it’s just for political reasons. No fair. /s
Popcorn.
I’m sure this is racist too...
I’m not going to hold my breath till any of these scum in this administration pay for their crimes against this country.
If these commie pukes were republicans they’d all be in prison by now.
Like Tom Sawyer, I smell a white washing coming.
Is Tom Sawyer still banned reading?
As Col. Jessup once said, “The truth, you can’t deal with the truth” “Yes, I ordered the ‘code red’”. And I don’t think that most of America can deal with it either.
The Republicans will fold, as usual. They are too damn terrified that someone will label them a racist to do anything besides sit on their damned thumbs. This country is so history. They are just trying to make enough noise to look like they might actually have a pair, till after the next election.
This is starting to get interesting.
I’ve got the popcorn queued up and the bullets clean and ready to go. Overall, I don’t like the larger picture that is emerging of all the current events in America.
Folks, we are in big trouble. I wouldn’t stand in front of any fans - what’s about to come out won’t be pretty and you don’t want to get it on your clothes!
When did they know it wasn’t the right way to do it? When they started it! The political crooks at the top knew it was wrong. They were intent on smearing the United States. Their stupidity backfired on them. What I want to know is, why didn’t anyone tell Obama that the whole operation was stupid and deadly? Did someone try to warn him, and he wouldn’t listen? He didn’t care? This citizen wants to know the answers to these questions.
Gotta keep hitting the point that this is like the scandal of selling arms to Iran in the 1980s. Maybe the media will start to pay attention?
And we have to keep hitting the point that they killed Brian Terry.
I hope Issa is playing his cards close to his chest and is holding “the smoking gun” which he will release at the appropriate time (hint: October 2012).
Bwahahahahahahahahahaha!
Get his nasty ass under oath and start asking some really, really hard questions Congressman Issa.
I think we all have a need to know what we do not need to know.
Considering the level of stupidity on display, Holder might want to consider an insanity defense. |
Have another muffin Eric.
All Holder has to do is to pull a Hillary and not recall.
