Jim Sensenbrenner seeks probe of faulty ATF operation
Wisconsin congressman wants agency to explain mistakes
I particularly like how Rep. Moore uses this as an opportunity to push Obama's nominee to head the ATF.

Jim Sensenbrenner seeks probe of faulty ATF operation
Wisconsin congressman wants agency to explain mistakes
Members of Congress and a local alderman are calling for answers from the U.S. Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives about a storefront sting operation in Milwaukee where an agent's machine gun was lost and the operation was ripped off, along with other problems.
U.S. Rep. Jim Sensenbrenner (R-Wis.) issued a statement saying he would be investigating the matter.
"News of the botched ATF Milwaukee operation is extremely concerning. The Obama Administration wants to pass new gun laws and give new responsibilities to the ATF, but the agency has been inept at enforcing the laws that we already have," Sensenbrenner said. "I will be investigating the ATF's actions and mistakes because this type of mismanagement is not acceptable. Wisconsinites deserve answers, and I am not going to wait until we have another Fast and Furious-like situation to find them."
I particularly like how Rep. Moore uses this as an opportunity to push Obama's nominee to head the ATF.
