POPSObama Declares Executive Privilege on Withholding Internal Emails! White House sends Hill Fast & Furious docs, but withholds some. The White House sent another installment of documents to Congress on Friday detailing White House staffers' knowledge about the controversial "Operation Fast & Furious" gunrunning probe run by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives. The latest batch of 102 pages of records partially duplicated information previously sent to Congress and didn't appear to include any smoking guns showing that White House officials were aware that the operation involved allowing hundreds or thousands of guns to flow essentially unimpeded from the U.S. to Mexican drug cartels. The White House now admits, "Yeah, we knew about it. Yeah, we talked about it. Yeah, we briefed our superiors about it. But we didn't KNOW guns were being walked." Of course, we cannot know that until we get all the internal emails, now can we?
