Good point.
We might as well give guns to Al Qaeda, since they already have guns.
Let's see how many more terrorists we can arm with U.S. taxpayer purchased weapons.
Where do you think they got those guns in the first place? Stingers too. And CIA training to boot!
Ironic post..is ironic.
Good point, you got me.
What's even more ironic is you support the man and even view it as a wonderful achievement when Obama gave guns to Al Qaeda members in Libya.
No it is not.
the right has been claiming this Fand F thing was why this man is dead.
taht is NOT a fact is it.
Good point.

Fast and Furious: FBI report at odds with ATF claim on weapons - Los Angeles Times
The goal of the Fast and Furious operation, run by the Phoenix office of the ATF, was to allow straw purchasers to illegally buy weapons in the U.S. so agents could learn the traffickers' routes into Mexico. The agents were then supposed to intervene before the guns were sold to drug cartels. But agents lost track of roughly 1,700 weapons, and hundreds soon began showing up at homicide scenes in Mexico.

Using terrorists to kill a terrorist?

I can't stand gays..so stop offering to swallow my load.
Cause the answer will always be no.
As in no you pinko gay bastard.
they lost track of the guns.
that is not good but surely not Obama fault huh?
The Republican Party has become the party of "Ah Ha". They think they have a new scheme. A new way to attack the president. To avoid responsibility. The problem with this current debacle is they struck "too soon".
If this had happened, say two weeks before the election, it might have had a chance to actually cause damage to the first African American Attorney General and the first African American President, but with this much time, people will learn the truth. And truth has proven to be the deadly enemy to this current Republican Party.
So forget the fact that Bush used Executive Privilege 6 times while Obama has used it this once. And what did Bush use it for? Things like protecting whoever outed a covert CIA agent, something people other than Republicans think of as "treason".
Forget the fact this program was "officially started" in 2006.
Forget the fact the agent killed wasn't killed with one of these guns.
Forget the fact Holder ordered this program stopped when he found out about it.
Just this simple one thing, when pointed out to thinking Americans, will prove this to be the scheme it is.
When an operation, such as this is put into effect, it takes years of planning. It's no accident is was started in 2006. You know something like this was going on for years. Because it takes years to train people. To make contacts. To put the operation in place. To acquire materials and knowledge. To gather intel. This entire operation began in an area of the country hostile to Obama with people who are Republicans to the core.
Holder didn't enter office with this huge operation already planned out and put in place on day one. It's ludicrous.
Look at the operation that took out Bin Laden after Republicans let him go and stopped looking for him. And it was a very small operation involving a limited number of people. And how long did they plan before the operation went into effect? How much training was involved? How much intel was acquired?
When the size and scope of "Operation Fast and Furious" is revealed and when it started and when Eric Holder took office, it will become apparent this is another attack on Obama by way of Holder. Now for these right wingers, it doesn't matter. They just don't care about truth. I believe my all time favorite post here was when some right winger said Iraq was Obama's fault. That we never should have invaded. This is the same kind of thing.
ATF gunwalking scandal - Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaThe first known ATF "gunwalking" operation to Mexican drug cartels, named Operation Wide Receiver, began in early 2006 and ran into late 2007. Licensed dealer Mike Detty informed the ATF of a suspicious gun purchase that took place in February 2006 in Tucson, Arizona. In March he was hired as a confidential informant working with the ATF's Tucson office, part of their Phoenix, Arizona field division.[23] With the use of surveillance equipment, ATF agents monitored additional sales by Detty to straw purchasers. With assurance from ATF "that Mexican officials would be conducting surveillance or interdictions when guns got to the other side of the border",[24] Detty would sell a total of about 450 guns during the operation.[22] These included AR-15s, semi-automatic AK-pattern rifles, and Colt .38s. The vast majority of the guns were eventually lost as they moved into Mexico.[7][23][25]At the time, under the Bush administration Department of Justice (DOJ), no arrests or indictments were made. After President Barack Obama took office in 2009, the DOJ reviewed Wide Receiver in September 2009[26] and found that guns had been allowed into the hands of suspected gun traffickers. Indictments began in 2010, over three years after Wide Receiver concluded.
they lost track of the guns.

But Obama "GOT" OBL right...
How come none of the Righty-Tighties are responding to Issa voting to fund the program in HR6028?
