The Obama administration on Friday handed House Republicans reams of
documents about the controversial “Fast and Furious” gunrunning
operation even as lawmakers appealed their case to seek additional
records.
After a long court case, the Department of Justice (DOJ) complied with a federal district judge's order that rejected the administration’s assertion of executive privilege over documents describing the botched operation.
Rep. Jason Chaffetz (R-Utah), chairman of the Oversight Committee, called the records “critical" to his panel's work.“The
committee has a duty to understand and shine light on what was
happening inside DOJ during the time of this irresponsible operation.
Yet DOJ has obstructed our investigative work for years,” Chaffetz said
in a statement Friday.
“The committee, however, is entitled to the
full range of documents for which it brought this lawsuit,” Chaffetz
added. “Accordingly, we have appealed the District Court’s ruling in
order to secure those additional documents.”
Sen. Chuck Grassley (R-Iowa), head of the Judiciary Committee, also called for the release of the remaining documents.

"... It is only in this way that we can hope to arrive at truth, and fulfill the great responsibility which we hold to God and our country. Should I keep back my opinions at such a time, through fear of giving offense, I should consider myself as guilty of treason towards my country, and of an act of disloyalty toward the Majesty of Heaven, which I revere above all earthly kings."....I know not what course others may take; but as for me, give me liberty or give me death!"
