Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. played the race card in congressional testimony on Tuesday, referring to blacks as his “people” while neglecting the rest of Americans. That race-based lens pervades his Justice Department, causing consistently skewed enforcement of the law.
Mr. Holder was testifying before the House Appropriations subcommittee that oversees his department’s budget. Chairman Frank R. Wolf, Virginia Republican, and Rep. John Culberson, Texas Republican, pressed Mr. Holder to stop giving evasive answers about scandals growing from the New Black Panther voter-intimidation case. Agitated, Mr. Holder objected to a statement by witness Bartle Bull that Panther behavior was the worst the civil rights activist had ever seen at the polls. “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 … does a great disservice to people who put their lives on the line, who risked all for my people,” Mr. Holder said.
His people? America left behind this sort of expression in the 1960s. “By sounding like Al Sharpton, Holder is demeaning his position as the chief law enforcement officer of the United States,” said Deneen Borelli of the black conservative organization Project 21.

Holder won't answer it because he knows it's true, he should resign or be impeached.
bttt
22 months to go and this jerk will be talking out of the other side of his mouth.
Look, Holder isn’t “black enough” to be a real black man. He’s jealous.
Well, the American people voted for black governance. Now people can see what such governance entails.
Humans are tribal. Send all blacks back to Africa and see how they do with their tribes 5,000 years of history.
He's come out and told the world he's a bigot. So much for the media covering racism from the very top level of this government.
We need to force this communist to step down.
lock him up! what’s the problem?
We have departed from equal justice under the law and gone to special justice under the law.
he’ll be getting this pounded over his skinny black ass for about a month
I can’t even imagine how this crew of miscreants got elected or, worse, maintain power. Their brazenness and incompetence is mind boggling.
Attorney General Holder is a RACIST.
He says so himself in public.
He prosecutes based on the color of people’s skin.
Reverend Martin Luther King would be so proud.
