Umm, Excuse Me, Holder Knew About Fast & Furious Waaaayyyyy Before This Year


Documents released Friday show that AG Holder was informed about Fast & Furious in July 2010.

In his May 2011 testimony to Congress, Holder stated he had only learned of Fast & Furious in the last few weeks prior.

In short, he lied.

NOW Holder states he didn't understand the question.  He insists that the memos didn't give him any details of the Fast & Furious operation--apparently only the name of the operation was mentioned.  Holder is adamant that he didn't know anything (AT ALL) about what was going on back in 2010.

' “He’s either incompetent or he’s misleading Congress,” responded....the press secretary for the House Oversight Committee, which is chaired by Issa.'

Meanwhile, reporter Sharyl Atkisson, who covers the White House, has been reporting on Fast & Furious.  She states that the White House and the Department of Justice has been "screaming" and "cussing" at her for trying to cover this story.


Apparently they feel that she is "not being reasonable" and is "unfair and biased".  They would like her to "be reasonable" like the NY Times, the LA Times, and the Washington Post.

Wow, this sounds a bit like the Ford commercial that wasn't well-liked by the Obama Administration.
