Lookey who got a Subpoena

House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Darrell Issa sent Attorney General Eric Holder a subpoena earlier today to get all relevant Operation Fast and Furious communications in an effort to determine when, exactly, Holder first learned about the ill-conceived gunrunning sting.
The subpoena requests information from 16 top Department of Justice officials as well as correspondence between DOJ and the former head of the ATF’s Arizona field office, Bill Newell.
It also requests all DOJ communications relating to the mission of murdered Immigrations and Customs Enforcement Agent Jaime Zapata, and murdered U.S. Border Agent Brian Terry.
A key issue has become whether Attorney General Eric Holder perjured himself when he told Congress on May 3rd, 2011, that he learned of Operation Fast and Furious “over the last few weeks.” As The Blaze reported earlier this month, there are internal Department of Justice memos from July of 2010 addressed to the Attorney General that describe the Fast and Furious program nine months before his testimony.
The pressure is clearly mounting on the Department of Justice to explain the decision-making process behind Operation Fast and Furious, and for a full accounting of the operation to be given to the American people. Chairman Issa’s office released a statement on the subpoena that says, according to Fox News:
“Top Justice Department officials, including Attorney General Holder, know more about Operation Fast and Furious than they have publicly acknowledged. The documents this subpoena demands will provide answers to questions that Justice officials have tried to avoid since this investigation began eight months ago. It’s time we know the whole truth.”

Attorney General Holder has told reporters that his office would “undoubtedly comply” with the subpoenas.

From the Blaze

I don't understand why the mainstream liberal media doesn't care about all the Mexicans and Americans murdered by Holder's Fast and Furious

I would be surprised if the compliance is complete. Holder will squirrel away pertinent docs and claim executive privilege.

Can you say redacted.

Not right now - try me tomorrow.

I can hear Holder now echoing Bubba's speech... "I did not have sexual relations with that woman..." Holder's version will probably go something like "I never authorized the sale of any weapons to known members of Mexican drug cartels..." The evidence is going to be hard to refute, the Justice department has real guns in custody from the sales and there won't be any DNA questions about a blue dress!

some aids ass is now on the line.

Anyone else think Holder looks like the black version of Howard on Mayberry RFD?

I think Holder will be able to squirm out of these charges.

I smell a Presidential pardon in someones future, at least I think that is the smell making me want to hurl.

Interesting that this "assassination attempt" came up just a day or so before the subpoena, isn't it? Diversion? Nah!!!
