Eric Holder the Liar Exposed-The Truth About Fast and Furious
Posted by M. C. on December 27, 2011
Strange as it may seem, Sharyl Attkisson at CBS has exposed the truth here via emails provided by whistleblowers. The ATF encouraged (forced) gun dealers to sell to straw buyers with the intent of using the artificially high straw buyer data to put the screws to you, me and the Second Amendment. See for yourself. Here it is straight from our friends at the NRA.
The “Fast and Furious” Lies
12/13/2011
E-mails uncovered by CBS News investigative reporter Sharyl Attkisson prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the Obama administration wanted to use Operation “Fast and Furious,” in which they allowed thousands of guns to end up in the hands of the Mexican drug cartels, as a way to push for more gun control laws here at home.
Testifying before the House Judiciary Committee, Attorney General Eric Holder once again refused to come clean about “Fast and Furious” and the ATF e-mails showing that agents wanted to use the operation to provide “anecdotal evidence” about the need for more requirements on federally licensed firearms retailers. These retailers were selling guns in many cases over their own objections, because the ATF told them they were doing the right thing and promised that the guns would be interdicted before they ended up in the hands of the cartels. Instead, the ATF wanted to portray these sellers as bad guys and use the results of the whole operation as a means to push for everything from banning private sales of firearms to going after semi-automatic rifles and handguns.
When the Justice Department was frantically trying to figure out how to respond to the whistleblowers who exposed “Fast and Furious” to the public, the U.S. Attorney for Arizona at the time, Dennis Burke, tried to claim that the operation was a good one. He even tried to peddle the smear that congressional investigators were only looking into the matter because the “gun lobby” was trying to cause trouble.
This administration has repeatedly tried to portray law-abiding gun owners, gun sellers, and the NRA as the enemy, while arming the cartels and refusing to hold Mexico accountable for the corruption in its civil society that also puts guns directly in the hands of that country’s criminals. Let me tell this administration something: They can stonewall and obstruct, they can lie and deceive, but we the People are going to hold them accountable for everything they’ve done come November of 2012.

How stupid could the gun store owners be? A govt. agency rep shows up and asks me to sell huge batches of guns to south of the border vermin. Why would that not be a set up? Since when did the ATF become a friend of the American gun owner or in particular the gun shop owner? Easy fundamental rule the government is not your friend, nor out to help you
