    Default Report on controversial gun running operation expected soon

    (CNN) -- The long-awaited report on the controversial gun-trafficking operation known as Fast and Furious may be issued by the Justice Department inspector general as early as Wednesday.

    The botched investigation was designed to fleece out trafficking kingpins responsible for illegal gun running to Mexico. It has been blamed for contributing to crimes -- including the high profile murder of a U.S. border agent -- and has become a partisan bone of contention heading into November elections.

    In the controversy over its handling, conservative Washington legislators voted down party lines to cite the U.S. attorney general -- a Democrat -- for contempt. It marked the first time in American history that the head of the Justice Department has been held in contempt by Congress.

    Democrats protested the vote vehemently as being purely political.

    !7 Democrats in the House voted to have Holder in contempt, in Democrat lingo I believe that's called "bipartisan." We'll probably never know the truth, that same Justice Dept shielded Holder from prosecution and Obama has invoked Executive Privelege to protect Holder. Rather odd behavior for the most "transparent" administration of modern times, eh? Cover up from start to finish and we'll never know how many people were murdered with weapons they never should have had.

    Holder, in a statement issued immediately after the report's release, said its "key conclusions are consistent with what I, and other Justice Department officials, have said for many months now," that senior Justice Department officials were unaware of the "flawed strategy and tactics" that dated back to the administration of George W. Bush and made no effort to "cover up information or mislead Congress about it."

    Hundreds, perhaps thousands of Mexicans have died because of this operation. And this is the respect we give to those who have died, a complete white wash and a denial of doing anything wrong? The men who ran this operation were PROMOTED for Christ sake! I'm not even going to go into how many Americans have died or the circumstances, that's on us as a nation.

    I don't care which party runs the show, either way it seems it's going to be composed of nothing but fucking liars and snakes.

    Gee, the same Justice Dept. that shielded him from prosecution. What a Coinky-Dink. So, why then, did Obama claim Executive Privelege? Hell, let's get ALL the files if there's nothing here!!

    You realize this operation had fuck all to do with gun shows and right now you're using a strawman argument?

    NOT A SINGLE APOLOGY WAS ISSUED BY THIS GOVERNMENT - NOT A SINGLE FUCK WAS GIVEN.

    I have nothing more to add so have fun with the partisan circle jerk.

    Create, there is a lot of blood on a lot of hands. This is no time to be a cheerleader. People are still getting killed and now we find out that the current administration is just washing there hands of this? This is worse than Watergate.

    Oh yes I realize that, Im talking about the situation as a whole. But how many cartels have relied on them (loop holes) through out the years buddy? How many guns end up confiscated that were purchased legally in the US?? about 90%

    Why not try to quit repeating a false statement. That and the gun show loop hole mantra. Straw man sales in addition to illegal exportation, possession by felons are already covered by a host of laws.
