ATF Retaliates Against Fast & Furious Whistle Blowers

It seems the Obama administration in general, and Eric Holder in particular, has a penchant for overplaying its increasingly weak hand. After Senator Chuck Grassley warned the DOJ against retaliating against the Fast and Furious whistle blowers DOJ did indeed retaliate. Special Agent John Dodson was assigned to desk duty and eventually transferred to South Carolina. He can no longer get into the main ATF office with his security pass. In Phoenix he was isolated and referred to as a "nut job," "wing-nut" and "disgruntled."
Other agents found themselves demoted, reassigned, and generally floating in career dead zones. In fairness to Holder we should remember that he doesn't read his emails so maybe when he has read about these illegal and unwise moves in the newspapers, which seem to be his sole source of information on Fast and Furious, he will get around to redressing these wrongs.
