[Snip]

The Reverend Al Sharpton was instrumental in securing Lynch’s nomination to replace Holder.

At what point, does “comity” become “comedy”?

Senators Hatch and Graham may THINK they are being generous and open-minded in their consideration of Loretta Lynch, but she is an altogether undeserving object of their solicitude and “understanding”. She is a bitter and vituperative individual that has it in for “YT”, and both Graham and Hatch would be among the first targets of her crusade to “clean out” the whole Washington scene, to “make it safe” for “da black utes”.

You cannot make nice with a porcupine. And she can fire a quill a good thirty feet.

The fact is...if the shoe was on the other foot....the Dim's would be united in their opposition.

The very fact that the Pubbies aren't should ONCE AGAIN..shine the light on the Pubbie Party.

I'm personally sick of these folks.........

“President Obama’s Attorney General nominee Loretta Lynch said that being “tough on crime” actually means being tough on black people.”

not true.

What she actually said comes later in the same article:

“I guess where you stand depends on where you sit — but even with the statements as a DA I’m going to be tough on crime, there are people who take that and have taken it for years because it has meant for years I’m going to be tougher on African Americans, depending upon the context, depending upon what else is being said in an election, depending upon what other issues are brought out there,”

A more accurate headline would have been:

“President Obama’s Attorney General nominee Loretta Lynch said that when DA’s say they will be “tough on crime” they could mean they will tougher on black people, depending on the context.”

but that’s not as catchy.

Just like Mr.Holder only moreso, and the Mainsteam Republican Leadership is just as meek and cowardly as always.
She shows amazing contempt and disrespect for millions of honest people, black or white, who want crime controlled not encouraged.
I understand her contempt for the Mainstream Republcians.

So the atty Gen nominee thinks black is synonymous with crime. Sounds like a good reason for rejection.

She needs to work on her English. That’s almost unintelligible. Run-on, mixed tense and talking head combined. Depending, depending, depending, of course.

If she said that, there is absolutely nothing that can be trusted from this hag.
