This past weekend, Attorney General Eric Holder attempted to intimidate his critics by accusing them of racism. Under the Attorney General's watch more than a thousand weapons have been walked across the border by the ATF and more than 300 people are dead as a direct result. Even Holder himself admits that the 'Fast and Furious' guns will be used in more crimes. Innocents on both sides of the border have more to fear.
The mixture of fear and intimidation has existed since Holder's first days in office. Who can forget his first major speech after confirmation? In that speech the Attorney General said "Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards".

The Black Panthers intimidate voters and he turns them loose with nothing. Tell me about racism!
“This past weekend, Attorney General Eric Holder attempted to intimidate his critics”
Really? Color me shocked. /s

The problem is that when a Republican administration takes over there is an incessant clamor for "bipartisanship","can't we all get along", "Republicans need to move to the center". Once a Republican president takes office the media immediately looks for bias in hiring and firing, having been asleep at the wheel for the previous four years. (vide Justice department under W)
Given Holder’s lies and dissembling, why doesn’t anyone on our side pound home his exact same pattern of behavior with the Marc Rich pardon in 2000? Exact same crap.
