Holder Challenges 'Fast and Furious' Allegations in Scathing Letter to Congress

Holder also made a point of noting "the flawed tactics employed" were also used "in an investigation conducted during the prior administration."

The prior administration also rolled out the red carpet for tens of millions of illegals..So is this administration. Is he suggesting this isolates him and this administration from wrong doing?

And specifically when did Holder know of these, "Flawed tactics employed" in regards the prior administration?

Great link! Oh boy, another big one by Sharyl, who might go down as the Woodward & Bernstein of F&F.

I wonder if her story will rate a moment on CBS TV news, between Michael Jackson's Doctor's Trial updates?

From the article:

Republicans have released routine memos that appear to show Holder was notified about details of the program as early as summer 2010, though he testified to Congress that he only found out in early 2011.

A couple of minor corrections, if I may:

Republicans have released routine memos that appear to clearly show Holder was notified about details of the program as early as summer 2010, though he testified to Congress under oath that he only found out in early 2011.

Well, geez Louise, we caught him in THIS lie, how many OTHER lies has he sat there before Congress and spewed? Congress needs to recapture its manhood... First Solyndra people refuse to testify in direct defiance of a congressional subpoena. I don’t know why those people aren’t cooling their heels until they’re ready to talk. What the hell is the Fasces doing in the House Chamber if they’re too afraid to use it?

[ronnie raygun]

He can scathe all he wants, he should be tarred and feathered. There is nothing in this world I would like to see more than these parasites, all of them one by one on trail, convicted and sentenced!

[BilLies]

WTF was the question that he is responding to?

[rdcbn]

From Holders perspective none of “his people” were killed by Fast and Furious so he honestly can't understand what the big deal is over the whole.

He really does not think this is a big deal and he could care less if a few honkeys and beaners got offed by his scheme. His only regrets are that a few jews didn't get caught in the cross fire too.

[ichabod1]

Why can’t you let me... moveon.org and get back to doin’ the peoples business.

[BilLies]

Not accurate, we do not serve the country and cause by posting untruths.

[E. Pluribus Unum]

This is playing out exactly like Watergate.

Drip.

Drip.

Drip.

Issa should tell him “Screw a letter, you are hereby given a Congressional Subpoena to appear before my committee to answer questions about your involvement and how high up it went. When did President Obama know about it?”

[drypowder]

Unless Holder was acting behind the scenes it was AG Janet Reno and Gen Wesley Clark of the US Army Delta Force under Bill Clinton who torched the Branch Dividians at Waco TX.

[cpdiii]

Holder needs to resign. NOW!

Wrong!! He is effectively neutered at this point. He needs to be the poster boy for the corrupt Obama. If things get really bad, he might even roll to keep his sorry butt out of jail.

[Georgia Girl 2]

Holder is in the last part of stage one; denial and moving into stage 2; anger. Next comes bargaining, depression, acceptance and Leavenworth.

[jy8z]

WOW! What's that old saying...

If you can't dazzle them with facts...baffle them with bullsh*t.

[broken_arrow1]

What...besides that, my dog ate my email messages-

[yarddog]

Remember the old adage: “If you have no defense, be offensive as hell”.

[Montanabound]

Holder was Deputy Attorney General under Reno and was deeply involved in Waco, Ruby Ridge, and the Elian Gonzalez disaster. It is disgusting that so many Republicans voted to confirm him as AG.

[Blood of Tyrants]

We have had denial and now anger. When it gets really hot on his lying ass he will try bargaining for his freedom then depression and acceptance.
