Because it's not a witch hunt.
Obama-holder's incompetence didn't turn Brian Terry into a newt.
It turned him into a corpse.
Will the Fast and Furious witch hunt backfire on Republicans?

The cover up has begun and they will do whatever it takes to silence the facts and turn the tables on Bush again. Holder should be in jail but that won't happen.
In 2009, the US government instructed Arizona gun sellers to illegally sell arms to suspected criminals.Where was Bush?
The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives (ATF) were then ordered not to stop the sales but to allow the arms to “walk” across the border into the arms of Mexican drug-traffickers. Where is Bush, there?
Many Mexicans have died from being shot by ATF sanctioned guns and Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, was killed by one of them in a fire fight. How was Bush involved?
It’s estimated that the US government effectively supplied 1,608 weapons to criminals, at a total value of over $1 million. Aside from putting American citizens in danger, the AFT also supplied what now amounts to a civil war within Mexico.Who's responsible for that?

Bush over saw Operation Wide Receiver where it used the common tactic of “controlled delivery,” whereby agents would allow an illegal transaction to take place, closely follow the movements of the arms, and then descend on the culprits.
Fast and Furious is different because it was “uncontrolled delivery,” whereby the criminals were essentially allowed to drop off the map.
Wide Receiver was conducted with the cooperation of the Mexican government. Fast and Furious was not.
Executive privilege is usually associated with protecting information that passes through the Oval Office. What did the documents reveal about Obama’s association with the operation?
Not only is Obama turning into Nixon Mark II, but Obama is worse because no one actually got killed during Watergate. Fast and Furious was perhaps the most shameful domestic law and order operation since the Waco siege again Democrats.
Can someone explain to me why Eric Holder still has a job? Fast and Furious is just one of a long list of failures by Holder's DofJ.
Nixon rerun.
Operation fast and furious under Obama over 2000 guns crossed the border without the cooperation of the mexican goverment and the guns were not tracked. The result the deaths of 2 federal agents and many mexican citizens.
The two operation were different as day and night with vastly defferent results and probably vastly defferent intentions.
The Fast and Furious sits fully in Obama lap.
Why not produce the papers (Feb 11- Dec 11) if it is Bush fault that would be a feather in their cap and a poltical victory?
Holder knows what happened, how much of the idiot plot was engineered by the White House? Only an Independent Prosecutor can try to find the truth.
Obama, the first Black Woman President.
"Did both operations allow for straw purchasers to buy guns under ATF/DOJ surveillance? Yes, however, the key difference between Operation Fast and Furious under Obama and Project Gunrunner under Bush is that under Obama, guns were allowed to go back into Mexico without interdiction or arrests. According to Chairman of the House Oversight Committee Darrell Issa, straw purchaser arrests and prosecutions have been way down under this administration, so much so it's almost as if the Obama Justice Department has no interest in prosecuting illegal straw purchasers at all. (A straw purchaser is someone who buys guns illegally for those who cannot buy them. In this case, cartels members can't buy guns, so they hired "straw purchasers" to buy weapons for them)" Katie Pavlich, News Editor, Townhall
The operation, run by ATF’s Tucson office and the U.S. Attorney for Arizona, started in 2006 — when George W. Bush’s Attorney General Alberto Gonzales was running the show — and ran until the end of 2007. No charges were filed.
Fast forward to 2009, when the Obama administration took over the Justice Department. The former Gang Unit inside DOJ’s Criminal Division (it later merged with the Organized Crime and Racketeering Section) reviewed the case for possible prosecution. At that time, a federal prosecutor in the unit “learned the ATF Arizona had permitted guns to be transferred to suspected gun traffickers and had not interdicted them,” according to a DOJ official.
