Actually, Eric Holder, Other AGs Have Faced 'That Kind of Treatment'
National Review Online ^ | 4/10/14 | Andrew Johnson

Posted on 04/10/2014 12:26:38 PM PDT by Nachum

Speaking at Al Sharpton’s National Action Network conference on Wednesday, Eric Holder took exception to criticism of his tenure as attorney general. He even hinted that the “unprecedented, unwarranted ugly and divisive adversity” was motivated by racism. “It had nothing to do with me, forget about that,”? Holder said. “What attorney general has ever had to deal with that kind of treatment? What president has ever had to deal with that kind of treatment?” Holder’s notion that past attorneys general have escaped widespread criticism, or that criticism directed toward him is solely race-based, overlooks incidents of those before him, including

Holder and Obama are so unfit to hold any office.

With their War on Women meme thoroughly discredited the entire Democrat party has already pivoted to race...so early in the election cycle.

Give them credit for agility and unity of movement. They're good.

However, to be forced to that meme (Clinton talking of voting rights, Holder talking of his unprecedented treatment, Pelosi talking of the Racism in the GOP preventing Amnesty etc.) so early in the cycle shows they are scared as hell and know they're in trouble.

Their focus is the stir the base and save as many "safe" seats as possible.

It is also likely they are AWARE that they are pissing off middle America and are willing to sacrifice every single Red State Democrat holding office today.

Desperate times for Democrats.

Holder needs to be brought back into Congressional hearings and bitch-slapped for lying once again. I guess someone in Congress needs to read him the list of others who were treated in the same fasion or worse since he is apparently going to keep on lying to the uneducated people he shills for.

How many AG’s, once they’ve realized that they are headed towards impeachment, have attempted to stir up class and racial division to keep themselves out of jail?

Really, this thing he has done is about as evil as I can imagine.

Speaking of AG Holder, something has been bugging me since he was appointed.

He was the US Attorney for DC(?). He declined to prosecute a Democrat(can’t remember who, a Clinton crony maybe?). Shortly after that he was bumped up to Assistant AG in the Clinton Admin.

He had shown himself as a guy who would put party politics above the law.

I have looked and looked and I can not find any information on this. Its possible its been scrubbed? Does anyone recall the name of the Democrat who was in trouble?

Someone else called it pigmentocracy. I thought it was a good way to describe it.

It’s no the least bit surprising that Oamalama would appoint an AG who is a delusional as he is.

Eric WithHolder will not prosecute IRS Gangster Lois Lerner, of course, and even if he did, Barack Al-Obama would likely pardon her for her Federal crimes. But, can she be prosecuted in any STATE courts??

I was watching Fox today. Someone said all that Obama and Holder have to do, is exactly what they are doing now, just stonewall everything, and eventually it will all go away, and they win. Unfortunately, we have heard it all before, no one will ever be held accountable for anything, and it WILL happen again. I know it sucks, and makes our blood boil, but that is reality. I don’t know what else we can do. The Pubbies seem powerless.

Yes, Holder plays the race and victim card.
He also plays power card. “I’m more powerful than You!How dare you speak to me!”
He fashions himself as second in command. Just wish a republican would remind him during the hearing, that the branches of government are equal (or so they were).

Q: How does one tell when AG Holder is officially Obstructing Justice?

A: When he uses the race-baiting card while on TV.

Eric Holder, you idiot!!

Republicans impeached the last Democrat President who just happened to be lily white!

You don't get to decide which laws to enforce!!

You took an oath to enforce ALL the nation's laws!
