Fast And Furious

GOP lawmakers are blaming five federal workers in particular for Operation Fast and Furious. The draft report points a finger at five Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives employees. They include the agency director down to the special-agent-in-charge of the bureau's field office in Phoenix. Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.) and Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa) sponsored the report. They say former ATF head Kenneth Melson worried about the gun-tracking program. But they say he failed to make sure headquarters adequately supervised the Phoenix branch. Melson stepped down last year amid the controversy.
