With all due respect to Brian Terry’s sister, I wouldn’t be surprised if the requested documents are produced full of black-out “redactions” which require another set of court cases to clean up. I think Holder and Obama are working according to their own agenda and timetable, and the upcoming election and election polling might be influencing them more than this case.

I’d like to be wrong, of course, and have the documents be produced clean, and blow the socks off of Holder and the rest of this corrupt Administration, but that’s the way I see it.

The court is not forcing the DOJ into releasing the documents themselves, the court is demanding they release the Vaughn Index of the documents they are withholding, along with a legal justification for the need to not release the documents.

If you are legitimately withholding documents, the Vaughn Index is your friend, if you are obstructing justice or trying to cover up wrong doing by not producing documents, the Vaughn Index is your worst enemy, and one which can help land you in jail for obstruction of justice.

Given how bitterly Eric Holder has fought the release of Fast and Furious documents over the last several years it's pretty easy to guess that the Vaughn Index is going to be no friend to Holder, the DOJ or the Obama Administration in general.
