What happens at the DOJ stays at the DOJ?

Another interesting development over at the Department of Justice Not only did Operation Fast & Furious, the federal program to sell lethal weapons to Mexican drug lords, completely slip Attorney General Eric Holder's mind, but now he wants to be able to lie to the public when he feels like it. It seems he does anyway, but it is against the rules.

Ever hear of the Freedom of Information Act (FOIA). That's the provision that allows people like UFO hunters to pester the CIA and FBI and those kinds of folks to dig through their old archives looking for evidence of Project Majestic and stuff like that.

Or suppose you're in congress, and wanted to review a couple federal warrants, or inter-departmental memos about exactly HOW to sell lethal weapons to Mexican drug lords. Under the FOIA rules, the federal bureaus and agencies have to go through their files, find the information, black out whole pages that might contain classified stuff, and send it to you.

Eric Holder wants to be able to lie to you, so he can say, "Sorry, we have no record of that."

Man, if you want to bullet-proof the federal government, this is the way. No one could ever sue these bastards, or even gather information from them for a suit against someone else. Or even know what the hell the Dept. of Justice is even doing all day.

Amazing.

Not only is this current regime wildly irresponsble, now they don't even think they should be held accountable for what they do.

Yeah, what happens at Justice stays at Justice, is that it?

What the heck kind of a show is Comrade running, anyway?

This Holder critter needs to resign, big time.

Save the Republic.
