Hillary Clinton told a House committee Thursday she did not know about the Obama administration's botched Fast and Furious gun-walking operation until she read about it in the press, even though federal law requires anyone exporting weapons from the United States to get a waiver from the State Department.
"Based on our information from the part of the State Department that would deal with this kind of issue, we have no record of any request for coordination," Clinton told the House Foreign Affairs Committee. "We have no record of any kind of notice or heads-up, and my recollection is that I learned about it from the press. That's my recollection."
...Clinton's testimony backs up an assertion by Rep. Connie Mack (R-Fla.) that the Justice Department's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives -by allowing guns to flow to Mexico -apparently violated a specific law requiring State Department permission to export arms.

“Based on our information from the part of the State Department that would deal with this kind of issue, we have no record of any request for coordination...”
Is that because you have LOST the records or misplaced them somehow????????????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
“”We have no record of any kind of notice or heads-up, and my recollection is that I learned about it from the press. That’s my recollection.”
Recollection is the operative word here..... I have no recollection... meaning, you will have to find evidence before I will tell the truth....
Hillary Clinton told a House committee Thursday she did not know about the Obama administration’s botched Fast and Furious gun-walking operation until she read about it in the press....
Taking more incoming gunfire while landing, Hillary?....
“I don’t recall.....I can’t remember.....my head is jello...jello...jello.............................”
Haven’t we heard this before????
I'm wondering if this thing is just the tip of the iceberg??
“No Evidence DOJ Sought Required License to Send Guns to Mexico Fast and Furious”
THAT is a BILL CLINTON answer. No evidence, means... none found.... NOT, none exists.
She is covering her a**, I think Holder’s days are numbered.
Was Her Thighness under oath when she made this assertion?
“No Evidence” = check her closets
Hillary has a bad habit of misplacing things like billing records and ‘can’t recall’ where she put them. /s
Throwing the DOJ & HLS under the bus.
I know nothing, I hear nothing, I see nothing.
Nicely played.
Please do not forget to ask the OBVIOUS question.... What was their outcome for allowing 2000 guns into mexico? Tracking? they could track these guys all day. If it is not tracking, what would the purpose be? Get the senators to ask that.
Hillary Clinton remembers E-V-E-R-Y-T-H-I-N-G. It’s only when she testifies under oath that her superb memory suddenly falters.
Yep. This is Hillary giving the middle finger to both Holder and Obama. Well played indeed.
Hillary, did you check the coffee table?
The Black Widow is unwilling to take the heat to protect her buddy Holder.
Maybe she is thinking of running agains Obama next year, or picking up the pieces if he self-dstructs.
But then again, she is a Clinton and the only time she is lying is when her lips are moving.
