Watchdog faults Justice Department over Fast and Furious
The Justice Department's internal watchdog is faulting the agency for misguided strategies, errors in judgment and management failures during a bungled gun-trafficking probe in Arizona that resulted in hundreds of weapons turning up at crime scenes in the United States and Mexico.
In a 471-page report, Inspector General Michael Horowitz referred over a dozen people for possible disciplinary action for their roles in Operation Fast and Furious. The report did not criticize Attorney General Eric Holder.
no evidence Holder was informed
The report found no evidence that Holder was informed about the operation before Jan. 31, 2011, or that the attorney general was told about the controversial gun-walking tactic employed by the department's Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.

And this is why Issa wasted taxpayer monies?
There you have it. Justice served.
So the Justice Department got someone from the Justice Department to investigate the Justice Department.
Yeah... no conflict of interest there.
Doesn't seem at all odd to you that Holder, who refused to release documents and has been largely called responsible for the whole fiasco, was also put in charge of the investigation that, surprise-surprise, clear both him and the federal level agency, and heaped blame on the local level where the whistleblowers were?
And people are content to call this justice?
