Sharyl Attkisson at CBS News reports that Republicans on the House Oversight Committee will take the first formal step toward contempt proceedings against Attorney General Eric Holder over Operation Fast and Furious.
The draft consists of a briefing paper and 48 pages that will be distributed to Democrats and Republicans. according to the documents the Department of Justice has given “false denials, given answers intended to misdirect investigators, sought to intimidate witnesses, unlawfully withheld subpoenaed documents, and waited to be confronted with indisputable evidence before acknowledging uncomfortable facts.”
Most importantly, “the Justice Department’s demonstrable contempt for the congressional investigation has inflicted harm on the people of two nations seeking the truth--and very pointedly on the family of fallen Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry and ATF whistleblowers who now face retaliation in the wake of their own heroic efforts to expose wrongdoing.”
Absolutely no one within the DOJ has been held accountable for Operation Fast & Furious despite the murders of Agent Terry and 300 Mexicans.
I hope to hell when Romney wins that they do a complete review of the undertakings of Holder on this matter as well as the Black Panther crap.
As much as I would personally love to see reckless politicians get their due, I have serious doubts that anything will come of this, as with so many other scandals and national disgraces much more serious and too numerous to list.
I hope to hell when Romney wins that they do a complete review of the undertakings of Holder on this matter...

Seriously? You think if Romney is elected he would do anything about this? That he would
do anything except continue the policies of his predecessors? You are living in
a dream world...

Oh, I think it was much more than smearing of Gun Dealers.
I believe they planned to use this stuff (before the murder of the border officer) to go for a total ban on guns in the USA.... saying "See, look at all the death and carnage done in Mexico by American guns.... " angle.

Let's bet that Holder attempts to fend this off until after the election. He's going to need Wonder Woman's Wrist Bands to make that happen (if Michelle let's him borrow them).
Maybe her magic lasso will get to the truth.
I can't wait to see Holder brought to justice.
I hope to hell when Romney wins that they do a complete review of the undertakings of Holder on this matter as well as the Black Panther crap.
