I'm A Hard Headed Lawyer.

No Individual Or Company, No Matter How Large Or How Profitable, Is Above The Law.

If You Want To Call Me An Activist Attorney General, I Will Proudly Accept That Label.

I Think That What I'm Doing Is Right. And Election-year Politics, Which Intensifies Everything, Is Not Going To Drive Me Off That Course.

Operation Fast And Furious Was Flawed In Concept And Flawed In Execution. The Tactics Used In This Operation Violate Department Of Justice Policy And Should Never Have Been Used.

I'll Leave Here With My Head Held High And With Confidence That History Will Judge My Time Here.
