An ATF source has provided reporters a copy of a letter sent on June 1, 2010 which indicates that the monumental scandal known as 'Project Gunwalker,' or 'Operation Fast and Furious,' was never a sting operation as previously reported. If such an allegation is true, then the official Obama Administration explanation for the operation is entirely false.
The commonly-reported talking point concerning Gunwalker is that it was intended as a sting operation but that it went bad when rogue ATF agents took it in a sinister direction.
But the letter of June 2010, forwarded to reporters David Codrea and Mike Vanderboegh, indicates that nothing about the operation contained any of the elements of a 'sting.' Everything ATF agents did in placing guns into the hands of Mexican drug cartels was done in the open and with the approval of their supervisors:

Well....
Yup..treason.
No secret from long time Freepers.
Show me that it does and I will feel better.
Fast and Furious... a trumped up excuse to attempt to make acceptable to the general US public the enabling of UN control of small arms, nothing less. It began with the trial balloon of ‘thousands of US guns are crossing the border into Mexico’ and ended with the deaths of American LEO’s, American citizens, and hundreds of Mexican citizens. Blood is on Obama, Clinton and Holder’s hands for this flagrant felonious perversion of US law.
You're saying it was an attack on the 2nd Amendment, the NRA, and conservative Americans? Could be...
Is there a reason Obama's boys wanted to take down the 2nd? These folks played harder than the idealistic "gun control" elite liberals... I suspect there was more...

Was the Southern Law Poverty Center putting out gun lies in conjunction with this scam? They're usually part of the inner circle.
“he couldn’t present such a program — other than Gunwalker.”
What if the border distribution of some 2500 guns was designed to camouflage where the other 75000 were sent?
Me likey...thanks!
This is a very interesting statement as the GCA says nothing about "EXPORTING" firearms to a foreign Government entity. The ATF is still in violation of ITAR as it exported firearms without the appropriate license from the Department of State.
When groups operate outside the law they're called criminals too...
I'm not saying this because the RATs use this at every turn,
I'm wanting this because it's due process according to the RATs.
Hey Boehner, Move your ass!
I think they were going after something bigger - but I have no idea what it could have been.
Was the Southern Law Poverty Center putting out back-up propaganda on a related issue? Like they did with the 'vast right wing conspiracy' issue. Was the FBI and top cops involved in spreading stories to damage an American subgroup?
Who are we trying to fool,,,ourselves? obama will NOT be held accountable for this.
MSM talking heads will always claim "The Republicans do it to",
but only when the RATs are caught in their own traps.
Obama is certainly a uniter in this case. He has the NRA, and the ATF Agents Union, united in their outrage at DOJ’s behavior. I never thought I’d live so long as to see that.
FANTASTIC!!!!
WAY TO GO....
