Eric Holder: Black Panther case focus demeans 'my people'
Politico.com ^ | March 01, 2011 | Josh Gerstein

Attorney General Eric Holder finally got fed up Tuesday with claims that the Justice Department went easy in a voting rights case against members of the New Black Panther Party because they are African American.

Holder's frustration over the criticism became evident during a House Appropriations subcommittee hearing as Rep. John Culberson (R-Texas) accused the Justice Department of failing to cooperate with a Civil Rights Commission investigation into the handling of the 2008 incident in which Black Panthers in intimidating outfits and wielding a club stood outside a polling place in Philadelphia.

The Attorney General seemed to take personal offense at a comment Culberson read in which former Democratic activist Bartle Bull called the incident the most serious act of voter intimidation he had witnessed in his career.

“The fact that unmarried births to Whites has risen considerably, reveals that in the lower income sector, things have gone south. Attitudes have also changed.”

I wonder if this coincides with the timing of the mainstreaming of hip hop thug gangster black culture becoming embraced by white kids.

Unfortunately sometimes I can be very attuned to people’s vibes. When Obama first won the election I sensed a superior yet more welcoming attitude from blacks. Now, for some reason the past week I’ve been getting some very strange vibes, even strange or mean looks from them. I mean it really stands out. Hm. Anyways, I have my first black boss this past year and this has been, ironically, the worst year in my 18 yrs at the company. A lady in the busy office next door to us comes in on her break complaining about how they pick on her for leaving 2 minutes early yet they let the 2 black girls either come in late or take twice as long as their break time should be and never say a word. I was shocked and asked her why does she think that is and she came right out and said the supervisors are afraid to step on their toes because they are ones who will go right back to the boss and complain and he doesn’t want to get in trouble!? It’s almost like in the future WE”RE going to be the slaves.

White people created the greatest country on earth and black/brown people are destroying it. Who can deny there is a racial element? And which race is better at ruling? It aint me that created people with different strengths and weaknesses, it was God. I’m just acknowledging the truth.

Many white people gave their very lives just to free some of their ancestors from being slaves. Shame on them for wanting to create a 2nd one. I guess they aren’t happy being free. Hell, it shows they’re not even happy when they make it to the top. Those chips on their shoulders must be glued on pretty tight, poor things.

No, what rankles Holder is that Bartle Bull said that. Coming from Bull makes it just about the most damning condemnation possible.

Bull’s comments haven’t been repeated much on the MSM at all, and hardly ever on Fox. It should be run on all avaliable resources frequently.

His comments say all we need to know. Mr. Holder is a racist and should be removed from office.

Want to bet he leaves?

The New Black Panthers said exactly that in numerous interviews.

They want whitey to “suffer as [our] brothers have suffered”

and let’s not forget the references to every man, woman, and child as a “white devil”. These freaks are completely supported by the Obama administration.

Geez Louise! How long will it be until the USA has ghetto thugs running through the suburbs slaughtering non-blacks like Zimbabwe?

the people living in the suburbs of Zimbabwe didn't have firearms to protect their lives and property. Civil war, martial law, suspended elections coming soon to an America near you. Wolverines!

Short of every word out of the usurper’s mouth, that is the most disgusting thing I have ever heard a member of any presidential administration say in my long and well-informed life.

The leftist members of the head of our government must be politically guillotined and replaced with Constitutional Conservatives.

We have a long row to hoe.

Conflict of interest is just the tip of the iceberg as far as Holder goes.......the fact that he’s a racist MOTARD is a good jumping off place for his being one of the worst AG’s we’ve ever had!

Sorry to say, but this double standard in the workplace (and elsewhere), has been going on for decades.

Yes, it largely revolves around whites being afraid to look “racist”, and more formally on an organizational level, fear of legal action from the worst possible source; the government.

Watch also how most whites bend over backwards to be nice to blacks, eschewing that same over the top courtesy when dealing with other whites.

This is not limited to self-hating, devoid-of-a-moral-compass liberals. You can see it even here on FR with some conservatives who fall all over themselves to support a black conservative, ANY black “conservative”.

See Michael Steele on this Board, ca 2009

I don’t think Holder has any kinship with any Americans, white or black, unless you go back several centuries. His father and his maternal grandparents were born in Barbados, so he is not descended from any American whites or from any black people who were slaves in the United States. He does appear to have some white ancestry but his white ancestors would have been Englishmen (or perhaps Irishmen) living in Barbados.
