Whenever I read
a headline like this:
"ATF ripped over Fast and Furious"
I know the article describes a whitewash. This headline guarantees nobody lost their job. It's a charade. If somebody lost their job, it that would be hidden on page 12 in the small print that nobody reads. This headline is intended to fool people into believing somebody paid a price and something change. That's a lie.
"The 471-page report is likely to be the most thorough and objective review of Fast and Furious, in which Bureau of Alcohol,
Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives agents followed instructions to let
drug cartel middlemen purchase and smuggle guns to Mexico - a tactic
widely known as "gun walking.""
The 471 pages piles on the charade. All that is intended to insure no reporter reads the report. It's a farce. The vast majority of news outlets and reports are already in the bag, protecting the government about this story, and this 471 page report shows how bureaucracy overwhelms the last vestiges of honesty in reporting. No reporter has the time to read that crap because nobody will pay a reporter to read it.
