WASHINGTON - New documents obtained by CBS News show Attorney General Eric Holder was sent briefings on the controversial Fast and Furious guns operation as far back as July of 2010. That directly contradicts his statement to Congress.
On May 3, 2011, Holder told a Judiciary Committee hearing, “I’m not sure of the exact date, but I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks.”

The wife and I are about to head out, would appreciate it if you could handle that....besides, I don’t want to get Jim Rob in another copyright SNAFU...;)
I just got back to the hotel here in Pensacola Beach and it’s washing ashore here... there’s a neat little tar ball stain on my shorts where it splashed up from the surf.
