A couple of corrections in the above remarks by Jason.

Project Gunrunner was indeed started under the Bush administration. Operation Fast and Furious was started by the current administration. Operation Wide Receiver was a Bush admin program, but it was markedly different in several crucial ways.

Wide Receiver failed and was killed as soon as the PTB were notified that some 200 guns had "walked."

Fast & Furious was killed only after Agent Terry was murdered and the news became public. And that, after some 2000+ guns were deliberately "walked." Hardly the same.

ETA: Make that; Aguila Blanca, thallub and Bart posted as I edited and posted while also having a conversation with Krucam at MDShooters! Gotta quit trying to multitask - I only have 1 processor!!!
