And where is President Obama’s Attorney General Eric Holder in all of this? When did he first know about the operation? In his testimony to the House Oversight Committee on May 3, 2011, Holder stated, “I probably heard about Fast and Furious for the first time over the last few weeks.” But the DOJ’s own documents prove that Holder had been receiving briefings on Fast and Furious for nearly a year before that date. In other words, our government’s top law enforcement official, Eric Holder, lied to the American public. He finally admitted this week to the Senate Judiciary Committee, “In my testimony before the House committee [on May 3], I did say a few weeks. I probably could have said a couple of months. What I said about a few weeks was inaccurate based on what happened.”Who is this woman, and why isn't she running for President? ;)
When the nation’s highest law enforcement official lies to the American people, he must go.
And if he claims that he didn’t lie, then how else do we explain this situation? He’s either lying or he’s so grossly incompetent and lazy that he didn’t read important life and death briefings from his deputy attorney general and didn’t know about this deadly operation run by people under him. So, which is it? Incompetent, lazy, or lying? No matter which explanation fits, he needs to go.

Some chick on Facebook has a great perspective on the role of Eric Holder in this whole deal.

It is not merely Eric Holder who was in the middle of this. Robert Mueller was in on the briefings, and the FBI used stimulus funds to buy guns from the straw buyers and then ship them to the cartels in Mexico. His agents also disposed of the third gun found at the murder scene of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry because it pointed back at one of their OWN people. Janet Napolitano was in the middle of this because her ICE agents were instructed to NOT check the vehicles transporting the guns across the border. And Hillary Clinton was neck deep because this ENTIRE operation is in direct violation of the International Trafficking in Arms Regulations, which belong to the Department of State. Of course, it's not possible that Obama was involved, since he was obviously TOO BUSY golfing, even though he DID tell his anti-gun buddies that "We're working this under the radar."
