The most suspicious (or incompetent) part of it to me is that there was no provision to "track" the guns other than waiting for them to show up at crime scenes. Seems that surveillance of the straw buyers or some kind of tracking devices would have been a better plan than waiting for bodies to pile up.
I think that some of Obama's appointees dreamed this up to try to gain traction for more gun control.

I'm not much of one for conspiracy theories, but given the timing, when Holder was going on about guns in Mexico, it does make me wonder if some half-wit got over ambitious with a directive to be more aggressive on that front.
I think it was the LA Times that had an article going over the logical reasons and stated reasons for this fast & furious fiasco. The only logical reason for doing it the way it was done was - drum up support for more gun control. To say I was in shock at the source would be an understatement.
this is clearly the only reason.
sometimes the conspiracy theories are right.
