The Justice Department’s responses to F&F accusations all have the smell of a “Hey, don’t look at me…I just work here.” attitude.

Of course they can’t actually say that–they have to come up with a more intelligently sounding statement. I’m familiar with that kind of attitude. It happens when someone at the top sees the actions taken as the solution to their problem but none of the mercenaries doing the work are motivated by a philosophical buy-in.

Like maybe if Obama didn’t like the flimsy evidence supporting his assertion that Mexican drug weapons and violence were all the result of US laws protecting the manufacture and selling of guns–so he ordered his Justice Department to create evidence for his case.
