AG Holder sends letter to Issa
Editor’s Note – And the drama rolls on… Holder must go!
AG Holder proposes meeting by Monday with Issa
PETE YOST, Associated Press/Times Union
WASHINGTON (AP) — Attorney General Eric Holder is proposing to meet with Rep. Darrell Issa (EYE’-suh) by Monday to settle a dispute over Justice Department documents the congressman is demanding on a flawed gun-smuggling probe.
Holder says the department is prepared to turn over documents detailing how Justice Department officials came to the realization that federal agents in Arizona had used a controversial investigative tactic that resulted in hundreds of illicitly purchased guns winding up in Mexico, many of them at crime scenes. Two of the weapons were recovered at the scene of the slaying of a U.S. border agent, Brian Terry.
In a letter to Issa, the attorney general says the information he is prepared to provide will fully address concerns of the congressman and House Republican leaders.

Eric Holder Makes Offer on Some ‘Fast and Furious’ Documents
By Jonathan Strong - Roll Call Staff
Attorney General Eric Holder today offered to produce a key category of internal Justice Department documents related to House Republicans’ “Fast and Furious” gun-walking probe and to negotiate the details with House Oversight and Government Reform Chairman Darrell Issa (R-Calif.).
“The Department’s willingness to provide these materials is a serious, good faith effort to bring this matter to an amicable resolution,” Holder wrote in a letter to Issa dated today.
A GOP committee source threw some cold water on the letter, however, saying there is “still uncertainty about what the attorney general intends to offer.”

A crafty bit of language but admits he will not answer the subpoena rather offer a carefully assembled set of records culled to fit another narrative, since the Feb 4 letter was found to be a deception, which is described in the letter as “a briefing”. The object of the subpoena is to gather all the documents and assess them independently such that taken together with testimony creates it’s own picture, is it not? Mr Issa is simply being provided with yet another cover story to feed the public. I guess we’re supposed to counter again with another leak. Some system, lie, leak, lie, leak? It’s almost a kids game.
throw this to Trey Gowdy he will handle it,the rest are owned. What Holder doesn’t seem to realize, is that he will be held accountable for all of his crimes he has committed,not just this one.
