Documents recently turned over by the Justice Department to Congressional investigators indicate that then-Deputy Attorney General Gary Grindler received a detailed briefing on Fast and Furious more than a year and a half ago.


"Deputy Attorney General" is the Justice Department's No. 2 figure, directly under Attorney General Eric Holder.

Holder testified before the House Judiciary Committee on May 3, ducking responsibility for Fast and Furious. The operation, carried out by Bureau of Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, put guns in the hands of straw buyers, who then gave the firearms to Mexican drug cartels. One of those guns was found at the murder scene of U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry.

The ATF is pulling the same crap they did at Ruby Ridge and Waco.

Usually these things depend on timing and what party is in the WH. If a democrat, then the media coverage will be limited and less calls for anyone considered important to resign.

I think that the Obama admin literally believes that they have the media so far in the bag that they believe they can weather this storm and not have to fire anyone.

That kind of arrogance is all over this administration.

Word is that Holder's got a presser scheduled for 30 minutes. Stay tuned.

Evidently Holder has been briefed 7 times over the past year and a half. He has purjered himself.

The real craziness is going to happen if they find out that Obama was briefed.
