Its not the crime, its the coverup, goes the old Washington cliché. In the case of the Fast and Furious gun-walking scandal, its both.
As Attorney General Eric Holder gets ready to face more congressional grilling Thursday, somethings clearly rotten at the Justice Department. The stench goes all the way to the top to Holder.
Friday, the feds disclosed documents that show that despite Holders claim during congressional testimony that hed only learned of F&F a few weeks earlier (a claim later amended to a couple of months), he has known (or should have known) about it all along
That information came in a series of e-mails in which the former US attorney in Arizona, Dennis Burke, discussed the F&Fs first fatality, agent Brian Terry, with a Holder deputy. The e-mails were sent in the early hours of Dec. 15, 2010, the day Terry died of wounds received the day before in a shootout 18 miles inside the US border, near Nogales.
The deputy, Monty Wilkinson, responded: Tragic. Ive alerted the AG.
.... Thats right. The governments top law-enforcement officer has been turning a blind eye to a cancer in his department for more than a year.

Holder's not "the top."
obama HAD to have signed off on this. It’s too deep and too wide. Ping...
holder lies because he must. obama lies because thanks to holder, he can.
Fast and Furious gun-walking scandal, that how it “rolls” in Chicago.
I dont know whos idea this was, but it is fabulous! It gives the American people a place to go without having to rely on the d@mn media for info. All the info will be in one place. The Key Players & Places link is great - has charts (and you can print/tweet/FB them - LOL!). I know heads are exploding at DOJ & the WH .... what a weapon for truth & transparancy. Issa is taking no prisoners .... hes just launched a heat-seeking missile at Holder & his lying.
There has never been a lack of space under the Obama Bus.
yeah but now the bus is gonna need to be jacked up 4X4.
The difference is Republicans resign; Demonrats keep lying and stay in their positions.
Eric Holder is a racist...probably 200 Mexicans dead from these weapons and he could care less.
I’m not for illegal immigration, but shooting Mexicans is definitely WRONG!
Thanks, bookmarked the site!
