Family of Slain Border Agent to Holder: We Deserve the Truth

Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry’s mother and father released a statement today on President Obama’s executive privilege. 

“Attorney General Eric Holder’s refusal to fully disclose the documents associated with Operation Fast and Furious and President Obama’s assertion of executive privilege serves to compound this tragedy. It denies the Terry family and the American people the truth.”
Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry “was killed by members of a Mexican drug cartel armed with weapons from this failed Justice Department gun trafficking investigation. For more than 18 months we have been asking our federal government for justice and accountability. The documents sought by the House Oversight Committee and associated with Operation Fast and Furious should be produced and turned over to the committee. Our son lost his life protecting this nation, and it is very disappointing that we are now faced with an administration that seems more concerned with protecting themselves rather than revealing the truth behind Operation Fast and Furious.”

because they were trying to get gun control and used this as a vehicle until someone died, and they know it was them and they don't want to hurt their re-election but as a judge said, this can be illegal...

They do deserve the truth. Unfortunately they won't get it until it's politically expedient for it to be revealed.

A shame what's happening in our country encouraged by a corrupt government and tolerated by a docile public.

How much of this have you heard on ABC, CBS, or NBC news?

Talk about liberal bias in the news here's a perfect example.

10 Months of coverage about Valerie Plame and not a mention of this boarder agent being killed by guns given to drug cartels .
ABC, NBC, and CBS Shame Shame Shame!

The public needs to rise up against the corruption. It is time the US had its spring as did the middle east. Watch how violent Obama and his administration can get. difference is we are armed.
