What would happen to Obama administration law enforcement agents if they recruited legitimate firearms dealers to sell guns to border-crossing smugglers as bait to snag high-level Mexican drug cartel leaders, and then lost track of the guns in Mexico?
Nothing.
What would happen if this inept Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives sting operation, named Project Gunrunner, passed so many bait guns to violent criminals -- instead of intercepting them as intended -- that one was used to murder U.S. Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry last December?
Nothing.
Project Gunrunner had been whitewashed by a 152-page Justice Department Inspector General Review in November 2010, before the Terry murder.
