WASHINGTON (AP) — The Justice Department has provided Congress with 1,364 pages of documents detailing how the department gave inaccurate information to a U.S. senator in the controversy surrounding Operation Fast and Furious, the flawed law enforcement initiative aimed at dismantling major arms trafficking networks on the Southwest border.

In a letter last February to Charles Grassley, the ranking Republican on the Senate Judiciary Committee, the Justice Department said that the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms had not knowingly allowed the sale of assault weapons to a straw purchaser

Nothing is going to happen. Issa is folding

My only hope is with his July 4th interview with Melson. We know little of what was said or turned over at that meeting. If anything of value was exposed at that time, the question becomes, will Issa use it.

The fact that the FedGov could barf up so many 'documents' in such a short time tells you just how horribly bloated a self-serving bureaucracy it has become.

When Nero Obama is at the helm, there is no accountability.

I’m getting the feeling nobody is going to be held accountable for these crimes.

This is Obama's WATERGATE except in this case the Community Organizer is the one who pushed this insane craziness through where Nixon was just involved in the cover up.

Obama already has many impeachable offenses under his belt. Rather than risk the minority of choice revolting, the Repubs have decided to wait for the election to rid us of Obama. When Obama illegally used the US Military to attack Libya, virtually nothing was said. NOTHING.

Now you know WHY Obama is untouchable and he knows it. He knew it before he started his treasonous acts that should land him in jail. Even though it is OBVIOUS Obama is behind FAST AND FURIOUS, you won't believe it until the MSM and the Gov't tells you it is true. And since both will lie until the cows come home to cover for Obama, you will not believe the obvious.

Americans are very PREDICTABLE. They are the biggest fools in history, they can no longer think; the MSM and Gov't have to tell them what to think.

It wasn't Holder, it was Obama.

Did you mean to say OBAMA is a stinking LIAR? Is this a typo OR are you another one who doesn't realize OBAMA is the only person who could have authorized this treasonous operation?

Dumping guns into Mexico is an act of war, it is treason. Only Obama could have authorized this. It is Obama's WATERGATE and the pawns are being sacrificed to protect the King.

Those who don't understand the lessons of history are bound to repeat them. Review Watergate.

Fortunately, Issa's on it, and he's the knife sharpener...

Then WHY hasn't Issa told us that OBAMA is behind this treasonous operation? Has he also been told to back off?

Right after Holder dropped charges against the racist black panthers he should have been removed.

Are YOU kidding me?

Only Obama himself could have authorized this operation. OBAMA, not Holder.

When Obama illegally attacked Libya with the US Military, he should have been removed.

The GAME is wait for the elections to rid us of Obama. Clinton proved IMPEACHMENT will NOT work with the corruption known as DEMOCRATS and REPUBS.

This will NOT stop until the HANGINGS for TREASON start. And until the MSM and the Gov't tell Americans what to think, they will continue to think Holder was behind FAST AND FURIOUS.

In truth; it should be a ‘Watergate’. . .but he is a Democrat; at least by name; and so protected. He is a great deal more, of course; and worse; but MSM will NEVER do to Obama; what was; and will continue, to be done; to any Republican. Today’s news; and tomorrow’s history; are written to protect the guilty.

Holder’s between a rock and a hard place. Give him amnesty and FBI protection in exchange for testimony.

The guy has too much to lose at this point to implicate ‘bam and co.

Then we’ll need to find a place for ‘bam— say an office of diversity at the UN, all title and salary with no influence.

Hold your nose, because it looks like this is what it’s going to take to rid ourselves of these crooks.

I want to be on that ping list.

This is the fast and furious ping list and includes the trades going to Honduras from Florida, and ... I forget which nations from Virginia and New Orleans.
