Statement of Attorney General Eric Holder on Department of Justice’s Outreach and Enforcement Efforts to Protect American Muslims

Thursday, June 4, 2009
U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder released the following statement relating to President Obama’s historic speech today in Cairo, Egypt:

“The President’s pledge for a new beginning between the United States and the Muslim community takes root here in the Justice Department where we are committed to using criminal and civil rights laws to protect Muslim Americans. A top priority of this Justice Department is a return to robust civil rights enforcement and outreach in defending religious freedoms and other fundamental rights of all of our fellow citizens in the workplace, in the housing market, in our schools and in the voting booth.

“There are those who will continue to want to divide by fear - to pit our national security against our civil liberties - but that is a false choice. We have a solemn responsibility to protect our people while we also protect our principles.”

Uh...Mr. Holder...How come there aren’t any “fundamental rights”, like freedom of religion, in predominantly-Muslim countries? What does the Koran say about what should happen to non-Muslims, Mr. Holder? What proportion of terrorist acts around the world are committed by Muslims, Mr. Holder?

So he’s going to defend religious freedoms for the Muslims, but pastors might not be able to discuss homosexuality from the pulpit without it being deemed hate speech by Congressional mandate?

Holder: “There are those who will continue to want to divide by fear - to pit our national security against our civil liberties...”

Gee, Is he referring to Al Qaeda?

Or maybe he’s thinking about Ahmadinejad?

What? Some guy, probably at least egged on by his buds, kills an American soldier and wounds another, for no other reason than they are soldiers, and you want to protect that group, rather than our soldiers on such detached duty?

If I said what I'm thinking. I'd be banned.

They couldn’t care less that one of the muzzies whose civil rights they want to protect just killed an American soldier and would have killed as many more as he could.

They have to be stopped.

Our only chance is to find some Republicans who aren’t wussies (I know - may as well be digging for gold in a bucket of sewage), take back congress with a veto-proof majority and get some legislation going that will overturn and block zero’s acts and movements as much as possible.

Fat chance of that!!
