#1 Attkisson has been working the Gunwalker story from the beginning, despite much hope of ever getting through the editorial objections. Now she's finally found an angle that will work.
It seems that much the same program existed in the Bush and Obama BATF and Justice Departments: why? What missing underlying motivation or fact are we still not seeing? (Or is it like illegal immigration, where both sides want the same thing, but one side for the cheap labor and the other for the cheap votes?) In any case, I'm all for her chasing the story even if it ends up being mostly on the Bush administration.

#2 The difference is that during the Bush administration, the straw buyers were arrested before they reached the border.

#3 Well, we do know, Obama/Holder took a small program known to fail, implemented it on a much larger scale, and expected a different outcome.

Google "wide receiver" guns -- and you get the "story of the day" about gun walking -- Bush era etc, etc, etc.

#4 Should have known it was all Bush's fault.
