Obama Executive Privilege Asserted Over Fast And Furious Documents


Let's see if we can use just a little logic to figure out why AG Holder would withhold documents, and the President would asset Executive Privilege.



Hmm.



Fast and Furious had components involved in both the United States and Mexico. That makes it an international operation, not a domestic one. That would lead me to believe the CIA provided support to the operation on the Mexican side of the border. It would not be in the best interests of United States National Security to expose the sources and methods of the CIA operating in Mexico. So that would explain AG Holder's reluctance to release documents, and the President's desire to exert Executive Privilege to limit access to sensitive intelligence information.



The Republicans don't seem to have any problem with information related to the CIA in Mexico becoming accessible by the public. That I find disturbing.
