Snopes confirms open letter blasting Holder is from retired FBI agent

So, let’s get this straight. At a decisive moment in history when our nation required a strong and unbiased voice from its’ senior law enforcement official, you Mr. Holder, made it your personal mission to join with other racial antagonist and politicize a tragic event, accusing a young white police officer of a racially motivated killing in what we now know was a justified self-defense shooting of a predatory felon. Your behavior is unbelievable. You sir, have sacrificed your integrity on the altar of political expediency. You, Mr. Holder, are the “coward” and hypocrite you so loudly denounce when speaking of broken race relations in America.

Further to this point Mr. Holder, law enforcement officers around the country remain dismayed and shocked at the counsel you keep; that being your close relationship with none other than Al Sharpton, a racist “shake down artist” who spreads hate, divisiveness and the promotion of anti-law enforcement sentiment throughout the country; a tax evading fraudster who has unbelievably visited the White House over 80 times in recent years. It is simply beyond my comprehension as a former federal law enforcement professional, that you, the Attorney General of the United States, joined arms in common cause with a charlatan like “the Reverend” Al Sharpton; and it speaks volumes to your personal character and lack of professional judgment.

Violent crime, out of wedlock births, drug abuse, rampant unemployment and poverty found in many low-income minority neighborhoods are not a result of racist community policing and racial profiling as you so quickly assert, and frankly most law abiding Americans are exhausted of hearing this false narrative repeated time and again by you and others in the racial grievance industry.

It's only called "Courage" if there is risk involved...

It appears that obama and holder are in a snit over the attention given to France. Both men were reveling in their Munchausen-by-Proxy moment, with all the world’s attention focused on them crying that they have to be in charge of a racist nation, hands up don’t shoot, holder’s a black man and was once stopped by police, and obama says he was once asked to fetch a car, while michelle was asked for help in a store. It was all going so well for them, and sharpton was about to have his million man moment in the sun.

Then came Paris and knocked these poor little fools off the front page. Obama snubbed France because he’s sulking, and sent his flunky holder to pimp some extra attention for the poor child in the White House, who still hasn’t gotten his fair share of pity.

Can you give some examples where Scopes has been factually wrong? Everytime I’ve checked they were right.

Who cares what the “Snopes” liberal husband and wife team think about anything? At least half of their “FALSE” ratings are complete lies, to bias people against conservatives.

Holder has never been a law enforcement agent. Hē is a radical Marxist lawyer who has worked the system to benefit the worst of the worst.

Think the point is Snopes is usually very left-wing and contorts to misrepresent or invalidate anything that offends their leftist sensitivities. . .and when something like this letter comes along it is interesting that even Snopes can't deny its veracity and source. my guess is they haven't figured out how to spin it, yet

“For the past few years www.snopes.com has positioned itself, or others have labeled it, as the ‘tell-all final word’ on any comment, claim and email. But for several years people tried to find out who exactly was behind snopes.com. It is run by a husband and wife team - that’s right, no big office of investigators and researchers, no team of lawyers. It’s just a mom-and-pop operation that began as a hobby. David and Barbara Mikkelson in the San Fernando Valley of California started the website about 13 years ago and they have no formal background or experience in investigative research.
The reason for the questions - or skepticisms - is a result of snopes.com claiming to have the bottom line facts to certain questions or issue when in fact they have been proven wrong. Also, there were criticisms the Mikkelsons were not really investigating and getting to the ‘true’ bottom of various issues.

A few months ago, when my State Farm agent Bud Gregg in Mandeville hoisted a political sign referencing Barack Obama and made a big splash across the Internet, ‘supposedly’ the Mikkelson’s claim to have researched this issue before posting their findings on snopes.com. In their statement they claimed the corporate office of State Farm pressured Gregg into taking down the sign, when in fact nothing of the sort ‘ever’ took place. I personally contacted David Mikkelson (and he replied back to me) thinking he would want to get to the bottom of this and I gave him Bud Gregg’s contact phone numbers - and Bud was going to give him phone numbers to the big exec’s at State Farm in Illinois who would have been willing to speak with him about it. He never called Bud. In fact, I learned from Bud Gregg that no one from snopes.com ever contacted anyone with State Farm.”
