As more defendants in the government’s failed “Operation Fast and Furious” face sentencing, a gun lobbying organization emphasizes the urgency for Attorney General Eric Holder to cooperate and release important documents.
Larry Pratt, executive director of Gun Owners of America (GOA), says while the Office of the Inspector General may have closed its book on Fast & Furious, the House Oversight and Government Reform Committee still wants the documents Holder has refused to deliver under the cover of the White House’s “executive privilege.”
Pratt is pleased the matter has been taken to the U.S. District Court for the District of Columbia, where criminal and civil charges have been filed.
“These are issues that should’ve been put before the American public,” he asserts. “We in effect attacked the republic of Mexico by sending guns into their country, into criminals’ hands, without ever letting the Mexican government know what we were doing.”
Though failure to release the documents put Holder in civil and criminal contempt of Congress, Pratt is astonished by the attorney general’s arrogance regarding his relationship to the law.

He is a ass just like Oni99er.
why is not a federal marshal arresting him?
Holder will not release any documents or not release anything regarding F & F until after the election. O needs to be voted out and us Americans need to have both a Republican controlled House, Senate and the presidency —– not until that happens will any charges be made against either O, Holder, Janet and all others involved in this cover up.
I hope when Romney wins they go after Holder and those muslim panthers and throw his black ass in jail and in the cell next to him is Obutthole.People like that goofy looking D L or D P Hughly can call me a racist all he wants but it takes one to know one.He sucks as a comedian.
How's that transparency working out for America. We know full well that Holder engineered Fast and Furious in order to have ammunition to attack the second amendment. Odds are pretty good that Obama was in the loop, if not instrumental in starting it. His exertion of Executive Priviledge is a virtual admission of complicity. Become an elightened person.
