Let's understand what all the fuss is about with the Obama administration's ill conceived "Fast and Furious" operation or rather what it should be about. It's not about assigning blame, or playing "gotcha," or covering up mistakes.

It's about who pays the price when government agencies make bad decisions.When field agents from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives deliberately allowed some 2,000 guns to "walk" into Mexico from gun shops in Arizona as part of a harebrained and hazardous scheme to track Mexican drug cartels, and then lost track of the cargo, they set in motion a deadly series of events. Before long, guns from the operation were showing up at crime scenes on both sides of the border.
