AP: The Justice Department‘s internal watchdog on Wednesday faulted the agency for misguided strategies, errors in judgment and management failures during a bungled gun-trafficking probe in Arizona that disregarded public safety and resulted in hundreds of weapons turning up at crime scenes in the U.S. and Mexico.
In the 471-page report, Inspector General Michael Horowitz referred more than a dozen people for possible department disciplinary action for their roles in Operation Fast and Furious and a separate, earlier probe known as Wide Receiver, undertaken during the George W. Bush administration. A former acting deputy attorney general and the head of the criminal division were criticized for actions and omissions related to operations subsequent to and preceding Fast and Furious.
The report did not criticize Attorney General Eric Holder, but said lower-level officials should have briefed him about the investigation much earlier.
Of course, most of us knew that under Obama and the current crop of Washington bureaucrats, Holder would come out unscathed.
ADDENDUM: Univision (not our own English-speaking MSM, mind you) asked Obama 'shouldnt' you fire' Eric Holder (question starts @ 3:20):
Eric Holder has his 'complete confidence'...in other words, Obama isn't doing squat about any of this. Figures. The only thing that's a political circus, Mr. President, is the hoops of ever-changing stories that everyone placed before Congress, including the DoJ's own Inspector General, is jumping through...
During questioning yesterday, the story is now that Holder thought he didn’t need to be informed about Fast and Furious...more BS.
