While the House Oversight Committee has now recommended that Congress hold Attorney General Eric Holder in contempt for his conduct during the Fast and Furious scandal, one could make the case that Holder has long held the American public in contempt.
After all, how many cabinet secretaries begin their tenure by calling his fellow Americans “a nation of cowards” where it concerned the question of racism? Never mind that America has become a nation where racism is not only unacceptable but a nation where, outside of being called a murderer or a rapist, nothing is worse than being called a racist.
If anyone has behaved cowardly where it concerns racism, it is Holder. What can one say about a man who sees fit to drop a successfully prosecuted case of voter intimidation? If two members of the Ku Klux Klan had held a baton in front of polling station in Philadelphia, Mississippi, to intimidate black voters, Holder would have spared no effort to prosecute them. But when it comes to two members of the New Black Panthers holding a baton in front of polling station in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, to intimidate white voters, Holder could not care less. During testimony before a House Appropriations Subcommittee hearing in March 2011, Holder said:
“When you compare what people endured in the South in the ’60s to try to get the right to vote for African Americans, to compare what people subjected to that with what happened in Philadelphia… I think does a great disservice to people who put their lives on the line for my people.”
No, the great disservice here is an Attorney General who does not comprehend the basic legal concept of “equal justice under law.” Eric Holder is the Attorney General of the United States, not the Attorney General of his people.
Yet what can we expect of a public official who does not have the courtesy to read legislation he contended would lead to increased racial profiling? Oh, pardon me. Holder did say he “glanced” at the Arizona immigration law. It would have been nice if Holder taken the copy of S.B. 1070 that Texas Congressman Ted Poe so generously offered him. Then again it probably wouldn’t have made a difference. Holder’s Department of Injustice was going to sue Arizona whether he read the bill or not.

Holder is a thug and he will be dealt with accordingly.
He looks like a skinny Cleveland Brown. You know the lead "fictional" character in the cartoon show based in the fictional town of Stoolbend that has black characters making fun of black culture and stereotyping black families. Uh-oh I better watch out now !! Oh-NOOOOO here comes Jesse Jackson, Sheila Jackson Lee, Sharpton, Farrakan, Pelosi, the New Black Panthers, the whole Black Caucus etc…etc…etc… There are FBI guys pulling up in black suburbans…is that a black heilcopter? Where o' where will I hide??? Oh wait they're not after me…They're chasing the asian guy that lives next door! LMAO
ready the rooms at Git-mo for the obama regime….we make even let barak have his koran and an ensure shake per day
Holder is a despicable human being just like his boss. They both belong in jail.
Thanks to oblameo, Holder and the HORDES of violent, groups of black animals roaming our streets, I have become a racist.
I treat negros the same way they treat Whites.
I'm proud of this fact and the ONLY thing that will change my mind or actions is the majority of blacks becoming civilized.
I really don't care what others think about it.
You've inappropriately called me a racist for too long now. Time to return to older days.
Dear Seeks, I too, am one who now am a racist, and have no problem with it. For too long, I have also been called a racist unjustly. So, I have accepted the role that has been forced upon me, and learned to be proud of who and what I am. I now too, treat blacks as they treat me, with disgust and no respect. It is a sorry day when those of us who had no problem with any race, to be so forced into being what we have became. I am too old to play the games that people insist on playing with words, and so I have come to just accept what I once would have found appalling. That I have such feelings for these black people that I now have. And all because of one half and half peice of excrement that was forced upon me by no choice of my own! Even then, as bad as I hated this thing who sits and fouls the whole Oval Office, making it instead the OFFAL Office, I was not racist…….not until I heard repeatedly that if I did not bow to this offense in office, and agree with every lie and insult that fell from his purple, lying lips, I was a racist! I tried to explain that I despised Clinton in his time in office, and he was so white that my husband calls him The Albino. And I had less than no use for Jimmy “The Peanut Man” Carter when he made the United States the laughingstock of the world with his lily livered behavior. Both of these men are white. So why was it, why is it, that because I have no love for this Infection who now spreads his disease of discord across our nation with abandon, why is it that I am a racist for not “falling in luv” with him? I have never gotten a clear and reasonable answer to this question, so I finally just accepted that I am what I am called by these butt kissers who, even though it is as plain as the noses on their faces, that he is an abject and utter failure at everything he touches and does, because of these reason for which I do not like him, I despise him and all he stands for, I am now a racist, and make no apologies for being one now. I love my country, and I despise the way this EVIL has invaded her, and brought her to the brink of disaster and failure, so if being a racist means that I am a Patriot, then this is what I will be, and be proud of it! Anyone who supports this abberation of nature in office is in my book, a TRAITOR, and I would far rather be a RACIST than a TRAITOR TO MY COUNTRY, THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA AND STAND TALL AND PROUD WHEN O I AM ACCUSED OF THIS NAME! I am NOT ashamed. I am NOT apologetic. I am An AMERICAN! Racists can change their views. Traitors, if they get their dues, and their justice, can go to jail, and this is only what they deserve. The day that blacks start behaving as human beings, and not rabid animals, is the day that I will once again become a NON RACIST! Until then, kiss my lily white rearend!
Correction, I said “in my office”, when I meant or should have written “in my OPINION!” Sorry for the mistake. I should have proof read my own stuff…….
Very eloquently stated. I couldn't have said it better myself.
Due to their descriptions, I now say I’m PROUD to be an Islamophobic, racist, bigot, White Supremest, homophobic, hate mongering, unAmerican American and I will continue to be so.
I agree whole heartedly. Someone asked me today if I felt guilty because I am white. I answered NO, I am proud to be white, and I have not been a racist until recently myself, but fast becoming one. I too do not like the way everyone in that stupid administration always hollers 'racist' if we do not bow down to them.
Seeks in the city I grew up in we never had no problems with race.We even had a murder in Amsterdam where the police accussed a colored kid for the murder of a white lady.Most of the people said lemmy couldn't have done it and that included me because I went to school with him.To make a long story short the black son of a bitch did do it along with 2 other women and one was a jail guard and he killed her in prison.This is why I didn't consider myself a racist until Obunghole turned me into one because back in Amsterdam during the 60ies I had lots of colored friends and we all got along.
It is a rude awakening when a "friend" does something you thought they were never capable of. I know from experience. It's heart wrenching and unsettling.
Hate just isn't in my blood. That's why it's so hard to accept I feel such disdain for a certain race. Me and my siblings were the first gen born and raised away from the Rez. My older siblings were caught up in the race riots of the late 60's. We "appear" White, so we were treated as such. I still didn't let this deter me. I accept people for who and what they are. It's just impossible to overlook what's happening today.
You look like a punk, act like one. Isn't it safe to assume you are one?
Racism is a made up word. It doesn't exist. It's a word that the Blacks made to instill guilt so they could do as they please, and the other races bowed and allowed it.
Blacks throughout the ages have killed and hung just as many Whites as Whites did Black. They just weren't publicized for the same reason as today. So as not to cause riots. Racism was used so justice couldn't be served.
Regardless of your color, if you can't see it's Blacks causing all the violence, you're either blind or willfully obtuse.
The reason people like you and I have discussions like this is because we were raised not to hate. Blacks on the other hand, were raised to hate anyone who isn't Black.
We have trouble hating other races because it conflicts with our moral upbringing. Blacks have no problems because they had no moral upbringing, or they wouldn't be doing what they are. Read a Blacks discussion. It's all blame the White man, or we hate the White man. Kill the White man. Whites discussion is your racist if you say Blacks are violent, or I'm not a racist but…
I hate the actions, and if it's being done by a single race, so be it. If that's racism, then I'm a racist.
Blacks can either become civilized or we'll remove them from society.
It really is that simple.
I am furious that it took Issa and Committee this long to find Holder in Contempt! This man needs to be prosecuted for not abiding by his oath of office and not enforcing ALL the LAWS OF THE LAND! He should also be prosecuted for suing all the states that are trying to enforce the laws, especially those that are trying to 'clean up' their voting roles and are passing laws to require a photo ID before they may vote! I just wonder how long it will be before B.O. throws Holder under the bus like he has done everybody else who has helped him get this far.
Issa should have said "cough up these documents now! DIRTBAG!" instead of "pretty please with sugar on top" for the last YEAR+… BONER needs to go… no pussies allowed in this treehouse! send calcium to DC, it's lacking a spine!
Holder and Obama and the rest of them will be dealt with in November. The will all be out on there butts.
Have no mercy for a guy who called Americans cowards, would not prosecute the Black Panthers after the tape showing the intimidation. This guy is a coward, sleeze and has been coached by the super sleeze Axelrod.
At the height of Jim Crow Democrat control of the South, there has never been a more racist administration in the White House than is now. It isn't just Holder. Michelle Obama is unrepentant of her hatred of White Males. Van Jones…Jesse Jackson Sr & Jr, Al Sharpton, John Conyers, Charlie Rangel, Maxine Waters….It is laughable and sad.
we the people knowing ovomit/devil and the head racist a/g holdup who under holdups watch border guard brian terry was murdered,and holdup and his equally racist boss ovomit/hitler never said or admitted the fast and furios screw up.but if brian terry was black,then ovomit/lucifer and the head racist holdup would have been on scene immediately,we the people,and know ovomit/communist and holdup hate me,then i know i have godd taste,because both of these dispicable excrements,who will be voted or kicked out of office,for there treasonous acts against we the people,and the constitiuion.and ovomit and holdup,the statement of people of color,is about the dummest statement of all,i,m a person of color i,m WHITE,thats a color dummy.god bless ron paul,mitt romney,sheriff joe and cold case posse,chuck norris,and all american veterans/citizens.one nation under god
@Seeks, Waitin’ and EdwardK, thanks for your kind and true words. Especially Seeks, who put in all the other words and feelings for me. I have never had any patience for what I refer to IS SLIME, nor the brainless wastes of flesh that follow it with such abandon and intensity. To me, they are not worth the air that they take and the space that they waste. If it is mu SLIME, kill it, for it is a danger not only to itself, and to everything, and everyone around it, but it is a danger more dangerous than the plague which killed millions way back when!!!! It will spread unless stopped in it’s unholy tracks, and millions more will die from this dreadful and communicable DISEASE that is nothing more than a deadly, DEADLY TOXIN!!!! It’s followers are the carriers of this disease, and as such, must be totally eradicated. Those who say that it is a “peaceful” religion are liars, and are even more dangerous than the others, for many will fall into this trap of lies, and be led to their own deaths. Such is the way of IS SLIME! So, as Seeks says, this makes me too, a BIGOT! Well, that’s fine with me, because I am in some great and wonderful company!!!! Welcome to the club will be my words to anyone who allows the BULBS IN THEIR BRAINS TO GO ON AND SHINE THE LIGHT OF TRUTH AND FREEDOM FROM SUCH EVIL!!!!!!! Is SLIME IS NOT PEACEFUL! IT NEVER HAS BEEN! READ AND LEARN HISTORY! IT WILL EDUCATE ALL OF WHAT THIS DISEASE TRULY IS! And, if there is any further doubt………..? REMEMBER SEPTEMBER 11, 2001, for, that day and it’s murderers should TELL YOU ALL AND MORE OF WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW OF IS SLIME AND OF MU SLIMES! This LIE of the dimocraps that those evil beings who commited this act of horror, that they were RADICALS? THIS IS A LIE! RADICALS THEY WERE NOT, THEY WERE A TRUE PICTURE, LIVE AND DEADLY, OF WHAT IS SLIME TRULY IS AND WHAT IT WILL DO TO WE, THE AMERICAN “INFIDELS” IF LEFT TO CONTINUE IN OUR NATION!!!!! RID AMERICA OF THIS DISEASE AND RID OUR NATION OF IS SLIME AND ALL OF IT”S CANCER’S CALLED MU SLIMES!!!!!!!!!!! yep, I am a BIGOT! AND PROUD OF IT!!!!!!!!!!!!
