HOLDER HAS A WEALTH OF EXPERIENCE ABOUT GUNRUNNERS YET FEIGNS LACK OF KNOWLEDGE!

ERIC HOLDER'S LONG EXPERIENCE WITH GUN RUNNERS
Holder defended Columbian gun running scam in 2007
The DOJ/ATF "Gun Walker" scandal isn't the first time Eric Holder's name has come up in association with gun runners and terrorist organizations.  Just a few years ago Holder acted as defense attorney for one of the largest gun running scandals in recent history.
In 2007, then private attorney Eric Holder defended the group that funneled $1.7 million into the Columbian group AUC (Autodefensas Unidas de Colombia) – a U.S. designated terrorist organization.  In addition to funding, Chiquita International Brands (CIB) helped the group illegally import over 3,000 AK-47s and 5 million rounds of ammunition into a country ripped apart by drug wars.  And Eric Holder not only defended CIB, he initially argued to the court that CIB had done nothing wrong.  When that did not work, he helped CIB negotiate a relatively small fine and eliminate legal penalties for the CIB employees who facilitated the illicit weapons transactions.
Now it comes to light that Eric Holder's own U.S. Department of Justice, through its reporting agency the ATF, instituted a policy of assisting in the illegal export of guns to Mexican drug cartels.  ATF (Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms) agents reportedly not only turned a blind eye toward illegal gun sales, field agents were forced by superiors to actively facilitate the transfers.  And in at least one case, that of Border Patrol Agent Brian Terry, the cartels used those "gun walked" weapons to murder U.S. officers.
In his recent testimony before Congress, Eric Holder claimed absolutely no knowledge of the "Gun Walker" program.  But given his previous work with gun runners, it is not far-fetched to imagine that Holder not only knew, but had a large hand in the program.
Frankly, the ongoing DOJ/ATF "Gun Walker" scandal represents only the latest in a long line of disgraces associated with Attorney General Eric Holder, including numerous instances of his refusal to enforce or even abide by the law, such as the New Black Panthers voter intimidation case, the ACORN Voter corruption and funding scandals, federal court orders regarding "ObamaCare" and Congressional subpoenas, and his shocking dereliction of duty regarding the Defense of Marriage Act.   Rather than stand as the "top cop" and ultimate sentinel and protector of our nation's rule of law, Holder seems to be far more interested in traducing the law to suit his own cronies, radical friends, colleagues, business associates — plus random "clients" and high bidders.  How much longer will we tolerate corruption and outright trampling of the Constitution from America's highest law enforcement office?  Our current Attorney General is not fit to lead the Department of Justice.  ERIC HOLDER MUST GO!
Congressional hearings into the "Gun Walker" case are happening now, so we must act quickly to ensure the Department of Justice can be cleansed of the cancer destroying it from within.  Please fax Congress now!  And please consider making a donation to help Life & Liberty PAC continue our crucial whistleblowing operations.
Thank you. I know I can count on you to defend LIFE AND LIBERTY!

Sincerely,

Mary Lewis, Chair
