As big a racist and liar as his boss.
Via Politico
In a rousing speech at the NAACP convention in Houston, Attorney General Eric Holder on Tuesday strongly defended his efforts to block controversial voter ID laws in some states - including Texas - saying the Justice Department “will not allow political pretexts to disenfranchise American citizens of their most precious right.”
“The arc of American history has always moved toward expanding the electorate. It is what has made this nation exceptional. We will simply not allow this era to be the beginning of the reversal of that historic progress,” Holder told the assembled delegates.
Holder further suggested that the Texas voter ID laws were passed for political reasons rather than a genuine desire to prevent voting fraud.
“In our efforts to protect voting rights and to prevent voting fraud, we will be vigilant and strong. But let me be clear, let me be very, very clear: we will not allow political pretexts to disenfranchise American citizens of their most precious right,” the attorney general said to uproarious applause.

Nothing “controversial” about proper identification unless you’re a corrupt, criminal black racist, intent on feloniously enabling more government coerced theft from whites.
Do they need an ID to buy government-mandated health insurance?
Best from the standpoint of supporting NAACP interests in defiance of the law. Another example of the destructive, win-at-any-cost mentality which afflicts and governs the US left. They (the godless left) see this as a fight to the finish. Its a shame conservatives deign not to enter the fray.
Right Pup, and if the DOJ and NAACP are so worried about people being disenfranchised, why is there not an uproar about the Military ballots that are not sent out on time??? Why are they not screaming about the votes of our fighting men and women not being counted???
Too bad he was not doing this by video from behind bars.
If Holder really cared about voting rights he would have prosecuted the Black Panthers who were intimidating voters outside a Philly voting place, but he didnt want to prosecute “His people.” Holder is the ultimate schmuck, he has the blood of Brian Terry on his hands and if Holder were a real man he would admit that he made a horrible mistake, but he can’t, because he’s probably very happy Terry is dead because all commie a-holes hate Border Patrol agents
Michell Obama requires photo ID to attend her book signings.
The Democrats require photo ID to attend the Democrat National Convention.
The only reason Democrats object to photo ID for political elections is because they don't want honest political elections.
I’m guessing war with Iran. Obama and his cronies know they are only one small step away from turning America into the European Utopia they have always wanted, if they see they are about to lose they will stop at nothing to make sure elections dont take place
Show us pls!
He doesn't trust Latinos with forks of knives near him either.
Those 300+ dead Mexicans must have had relatives.
Send him 5 bucks and Carney will guess your weight or age.
Protect RATS’ right to vote fraud, he means.
Lousy hypocrites.

... Ironically, the Justice Department says reporters who want to cover Holder’s speech today in which he will decry the discriinatory and racist nature of requiring photo i.d.-—have to first show a photo i.d. before they’ll be allowed into the auditorium.
