Melson’s explosive F&F allegations; ‘taxpayer dollars’ may have been used!

During an appearance Monday before Congressional investigators, Kenneth Melson, acting director of the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives alleged that the Department of Justice not only allowed criminals to smuggle guns to Mexico, but that “taxpayer dollars from other agencies may have financed those engaging in such activities.”

"Melson insisted that he has no intentions of stepping down. He also asserted, according to the letter (printed in its entirety, below), that he was kept in the dark about the involvement of other agencies, including the possibility that some of the so-called "higher ups" in the cartels that Fast and Furious was supposed to have smoked out may have actually been paid FBI and DEA informants."

So, another point proving the whole plan was to get more gun control laws passed in the US.
 
Does anyone recall a while back when Obama told the Brady Bunch that his admin was "working under the radar" on gun control? My bet is this was what he was talking about. We're just darn lucky it looks like it's blowing up in his face. But of course, he knew nothing about it. :s0077: Can anyone say "plausible deniability"?

Never heard of Michael Bay. Nobody could make up stuff like this. Nobody.

Sources: Melson met secretly with investigators so DOJ ‘wouldn’t know about it’


Kenneth Melson, acting director of the embattled Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, purposely asked for a July 4 meeting with Congressional investigators “because he did not want the Justice Department to know about it.”

Media storm clouds form over administration’s ‘Fast & Furious’ coverup

A prominent Pacific Northwest newspaper jumped into the Operation Fast and Furious fray today with an editorial demanding openness and accountability from the Obama administration on what it calls “a tragically inept attempt” to trace illegally-trafficked guns that has now “grown into something bigger.”

Looks like he's lost plausible deniability. Attorney General Eric Holder in a <broken link removed> to authorities in Cuernavaca, Mexico:

"Last week, our administration launched a major new effort to break the backs of the cartels. My department is committing 100 new ATF personnel to the Southwest border in the next 100 days to supplement our ongoing Project Gunrunner. DEA is adding 16 new positions on the border, as well as mobile enforcement teams, and the FBI is creating a new intelligence group focusing on kidnapping and extortion."

Wow! These guys are beginning to make the Nixon admin look like choir boys.

Which was worse: Watergate or Fast and Furious
