Eric Holder Plays Race Card for Obama




Members of the Project 21 black leadership network are appalled that Attorney General Eric Holder used the race card to block congressional inquiries into the Justice Department’s silence and possible mishandling of a race-fueled voting rights case.

“Eric Holder is sending a consistent and unfortunate message that we should expect justice to be applied only on the terms set by him and President Obama. This disregard for the rule of law is made worse by divisive rhetoric that is anathema to his sworn duties to uphold our Constitution as Attorney General,” said Project 21′s Jerome Hudson. “Holder’s apparent willingness to turn a blind eye to equal justice is one more example of how radical and out of touch this presidency is with the American people.”

Holder engaged in racial politics during a subcommittee hearing of the House Appropriations Committee on March 1. Representative John Culberson (R-TX) brought up that the U.S. Department of Justice was uncooperative with investigators from the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights regarding allegations that political appointees intervened in a voting rights case against members of the New Black Panther Party charged with restricting the access of white voters to a Philadelphia polling place on Election Day 2008. Holder harshly criticized scrutiny of the case, calling it “inappropriate” to compare this case to past government defenses of civil rights, adding, “I think it does a great disservice to people who put their lives on the line for my people.”

“Holder’s comment about ‘my people’ illustrates how the Attorney General sees the world through a color-coded lens,” said Project 21 Fellow Deneen Borelli. “Accordingly, it’s not surprising that the Justice Department under his leadership has not aggressively pursued the voter intimidation case regarding the Philadelphia members of the New Black Panther Party.”

The three members of the New Black Panther Party were on the verge of being sentenced for the apparent voter intimidation when Obama political appointees reportedly ordered career attorneys at the Justice Department to settle the case.

Holder’s March 1 outburst came after Culberson referred to comments made by veteran civil rights activist Bartle Bull, an eyewitness at the polling place. In an affidavit, Bull wrote: “I have never encountered or heard of another instance in the United States where armed and uniformed men blocked the entrance to a polling location.” Bull considers the 2008 incident the most serious act of voter intimidation he has ever seen. Former career attorneys in the Justice Department’s Civil Rights Division also claim an environment of incivility exists toward cases involving minority defendants.

In several letters to President Barack Obama, Project 21 Chairman Mychal Massie has called for the appointment of a special prosecutor to investigate allegations of political pressure being put on career attorneys at the Justice Department to settle the New Black Panther case prematurely.

Project 21′s Borelli added: “Attorney General Holder should seek justice for all Americans and not just for individuals of his race. By sounding like Al Sharpton, Holder is demeaning his position as the chief law enforcement officer of the United States.”

    Eric Holder as Attorney General of the USA, is supposed to uphold the laws of this country, set up in the Constitution, however he is as Anti-American as Obama, & the rest of Obamas Czars. They are doing as much as they can, as fast as they can to take down the USA. Sadly there are too many idiots out there who haven't got a clue, & these idiots keep voting for the corrupt people in congress. Until something happens to wake these people up, Obama & the other Anti-American idiots will continue doing what they have been doing.

      Shut down the congress and senate, we want them back home now.
      Quit calling our people idiots, they are not informed by the media, call them names not the people.

    What a breath of FRESH AIR to finally hear someone tell it like it is..THANK YOU, JEROME HUDSON & DENEEN BORELLIE OF PROJECT 21…. Obama and Holder's racial hatred is at last being pointed out in just plain english, no cover up with P C stupidity. Just a simple statement with pure clarity..
    Obama and Holder's actions are definity a dis-service to their OFFICE and the AMERICAN PEOPLE… Neither one of these two are Community Organizers any longer. they are not in Office to hype up the people to shout down a Town Hall Speaker or take sides.. Both are in LEADERSHIP POSSITIONS of a NATION NOT A COMMUITY. They are to LEAD all the PEOPLE EQUALLY , not select groups.. BOY DID WE GET ROTTEN APPLES OR WHAT. Glad I did not vote for either of them….

    • donjusko says:

      Those that did vote for him were lied to. Impeach him and bring out congress and senate home now, audit the Fed and stop this BS.

  3. WesternJohn says:

    These people obviuosly have a totally different agenda than most of the people in this country and are willing to subvert our laws to accomplish that agenda. We need to get rid of these people before too much longer. It is outrageoous that we put up with this incompetence. Congress has got to get with it and we need to push Congress to dso just that. These people are criminals and need to be removed from office. no more. I'm fed up to my eye balls.

    • donjusko says:

      Shut down the gov. now. No more funding. Audit the Fed.

    • J__44 says:

      Duh,…when does a Special Prosecutor get assigned…..?…..Never? what kind of shit is this? Call Darrell Issa and raise hell. .. We don’t need to know anymore about their dirty tricks…..We’re convinced…..So is Lt Col Terry Laiken….We’re just the loser Serfs to King BoHO

  4. BippyBellito says:

    Neither man can forgive what happened 50 years ago by men long dead. This administration is supposed to be making life safe, fair, and reasonable for the living….regardless of color of skin. The preferential treatment given to the New Black Panthers and their Uber Racist leaders is a clear indication that "Whitey Must Pay". This is wrong at many levels and neither Obama or Holder should remain in office with that mind set. It is time for these Bigots to Go!

    • donjusko says:

      You don't get it, writing posts is not going to change anything, it hasn't in 2 years. Shut it all down and don't finance them. Audit the Fed, don't take your eye off the ball.

  5. FIGLU says:

    I began working for the US Attorney’s office just as thes two racists came into power; when nothing was said about Holder’s comment in which he called America a “nation of cowards” & then stated that he would aggressively pursue cases of racial discrimination as priority,

    I knew there would be no such thing as blind justice if they have their way. The only thing that is happening is reverse racism being tolerated & upheld by the

    highest office in the land. I can’t wait to vote these bigots out of office!

    • madmemere says:

      FIGLU-News flash, -plenty was said about holder's comments (lower case is intentional) and more than enough was said about his appointment to DOJ-but – -nothing was "done" about it, because of the "mentally diseased" liberal progressives in charge a the time!

    • J__44 says:

      yea, the Russians thought they wanted Joseph Stalin out also….good luck with that….we can’t even get a damned Special Prosecutor assigned…donjusko is correct….shut it all down

  6. WesternJohn says:

    We need to get Congress to do something about this mess. These people are looking for reparations for things that supposedly were fixed but they can't let it go. As someone said, these things happened long ago with people that are long gone. Why are they still in office? They won't uphold the laws of our land. What good are they to us???

  7. kingsman_42 says:

    There is a double standard in this country that needs to be addressed. More minority citizens ought to be concerned that criminal elements or thugs of any race can intimidate or threaten voters, yet their concern is only for their particular race. Thus those minority citizens are not raising a stink about this issue as they should. There's no place room today for hindering any registered voter of any race, legal citizens, from voting in his or her voting precinct. Anyone disrupting the political process at a polling place should be dealt with no matter if they're white, black, Hispanic, Asian or other race. Equal treatment under the law is called for. Eric Holder must respect that or be ousted along with his boss.

  8. kawaiihoolana says:

    So….when does the IMPEACH Obama proceedings get under way? I have been waiting as every turn of the page points out more impeachable infractions of this illegal president. Still nothing..what has to happen to bring this most desired result to fruition? We can't wait til the elections of 2012! At the rate these two incompetants are going we won't have a country left…….

    • madmemere says:

      Never mind impeach – -arrest, try, convict and execute obama AND company, for high crimes, espionage AND treason!

  9. circle8 says:

    This is what America gets when they elect people who follow the beliefs of Marxists and Communists. This Ag is a clown. Of course obozo has proved he is about as good of a leader as jimmie carter. We have 689 more days of these crooks and if, I repeat IF this country survives I will be surprised. I imagine every former president is rolling over in their grave thinking about how stupid this country was to fall for the line of BS from these scumbags.

    • madmemere says:

      American cannot survive 689 more days with these "perps" in charge. Write, or call your reps, notify newspapers, tv stations, anyone you can think of – -get all your relatives, associates and friends to write and call demanding arrest and removal NOW! Congress needs to get approx. 500 of the same message, THEN they will act!

  10. Edwardkoziol says:

    Holder the banana head said it all when he said my people,here I thought he was suppose to represent all people regardless of color.You would think that with a half black president would want to represent whites too maybe it's becase the white part is breed out of his daughters

  11. donjusko says:

    Make term limits and end another word that starts with "T", a little help please.

    WARNING: BEWARE of Eric Holder and Obammy boy! Those two boys are about 3/4 of the way to total destruction of The United States of America. This was and is on a fast track that has been organized by big money and by people in power all around the globe. Think about it? Did anybody hear or know anything about this Illinois dude, who out of nowhere, was running for the office of President? Yes people were sick of Bush and some of his management, but come on, you voted for a Socialist, Marxist, Communist, anti-Americam, anti-Christian, Muslim you knew nothing about? How's that change going for you now? For me, I did NOT vote for Obammy boy, it is the worst mistake I have ever witnessed in politics in my entire life. Daily I ask when will somebody do something to oust this crimina;? And daily, nothing happens. What is wrong with this picture? Would someone please explain what the hold up is in not impeaching this terrorist?

    • Irosin says:

      In another post I said that I beleive the entire political body, both Democrats AND Republicans are in on the destruction of America, or else SOMETHING would have happened by now to stop this traitor! It's either that senario or the citizens put into many political positions a bunch of weasles with no backbone and no balls!

    • daisysue says:

      It is simple, majority of congress have no B@&&$….If there had not been such an uproar, Boehner would have crumbled..He wanted to make a deal while holding a winning hand…..His idea was, lets go along & get along.. We got this far because of the freshmen & people shouting.. He had to make a move..
      You are right, SOMETHING has to be done about obama soon or we are not gonna have a country……..

    • J__44 says:

      Obama and Holder haven’t authorized Impeachment yet..in fact…they probably wont.

  13. chwills says:

    This is lead by Barry Soetoro, AKA Barack Obama. It's time to start calling and demanding that Congress act to impeach the Kenyan SOB. http://www.petition2congress.com/2/2349/petition-

  14. Raymond says:

    Holder IS a flaming racist.

  15. Mary says:

    Holder must go and he can take John Conyers and Sheila Jackson Lee with him. Nobody was not going to be prevented for voting unless they were not registered or if they were illegal. No reason for those intimidators to be there.

  16. Deepizzaguy says:

    Eric Holder is a disgrace to the office of Attorney General. Bottom line.

    GARFIELD ON OIL SHORTAGE

    A lot of folks can't understand how we came to have an oil shortage here in our country.
    ~~~
    Well, there's a very simple answer.
    ~~~
    Nobody bothered to check the oil.
    ~~~
    We just didn't know we were getting low.
    ~~~
    The reason for that is purely geographical.
    ~~~
    Our OIL is located in:
    ~~~
    ALASKA
    ~~~
    California
    ~~~
    Coastal Florida
    ~~~
    Coastal Louisiana
    ~~~
    North Dakota
    ~~~
    Wyoming
    ~~~
    Colorado
    ~~~
    Kansas
    ~~~
    Oklahoma
    ~~~
    Pennsylvania
    And
    Texas
    ~~~
    Our dipsticks are located in DC……………..

    Any Questions? NO? Didn't think so.

    How Can We Protect America???

    1). Send Obama back to Kenya where he came from.
    2). Deport ALL muslims, starting with Obama and his fat wife.
    3). Confiscate all property and businesses owned by muslims.
    4). Confiscate all Qur’an’s and BURN them, after you first
    dip them in pigs blood.
    5). Burn all mosques to the ground and rip out the foundation.
    6). Cut all ties with muslim nations.
    7). Give Israel 20 F-22 Raptors.
    8). Any nation that attacks Israel will be wiped out.
    9). Drill for oil on America soil & stop buying oil
    from muslims.
    10). Deport ANYONE who is married to a muslim or
    supports muslims.

    • madmemere says:

      Raymond-We need a minimum of 500, to call or email our reps, demanding obama (aka barry soetoro) AND company's removal, arrest, trial, conviction and execution for high crimes, espionage AND treason! THEN confiscate all monies and holdings of these people and turn it over to US Treasury to be used "only" to reduce government deficit (which they created)! When I say "all monies" I also mean their "secret Vatican bank accounts"! Go to your search bar and type in "obama's secret bank accounts" – -that will really open your eyes!

  19. BYBOOZOO says:

    Nothing will happen to this Black Racist, for he is "immune", because of the percentage of Black, within his Mulatto heritage! Were he totally Caucasian, making such accusations against Blacks, he would be fired on the spot!
    Now maybe, one can understand if this type of racial mentality ever received total control, what in fact would happen to any minority?!

  20. jimtibbs says:

    He should be investigated by Issas, and a congressional comittee, and there is no doubt in my mind he will be done. I just hope that they aren't scared like Holder once said of white people, on national tv. He is no good for this country, and not for Oblunders administration. He must go, now.
