Fast And Furious As Obama's Tuskegee Syphilis Project?

It wasn't working. ATF agents wanted it stopped. There were no controls. But the Obamatons kept shipping guns to murderous Mexican drug cartels.
As officials on the ground learned of the flow of guns, they tried to warn their bosses in Phoenix and Washington, the report says. But their warnings were not heeded until late 2010, after U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry was killed in the Arizona desert in December and two AK-47 semi-automatic rifles sold by Fast and Furious were recovered at the crime scene.

“This is the perfect storm of idiocy,” the acting ATF attaché to Mexico Carlos Canino told congressional investigators, the report says. “There was no gray area here. We knew that these guys were trafficking guns into Mexico.”

“Never in my wildest dreams ever would I have thought that this was a technique,” he said. “Never. Ever. It just, it is inconceivable to me.”

In prepared testimony to be delivered at the hearing, chaired by Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), the former ATF attaché to Mexico will detail his efforts to try to end the sting program.

“Hey, when are they going to shut this, to put it bluntly, damn investigation down,” Gil said he told one of his bosses in an argument. “We’re getting hurt down here.”
