Holder - Those Mean Conservative Bloggers Are Saying Bad Things About Me

In a New York Times political piece that charitably can be described as utter rubbish, Attorney General Eric Holder blames bloggers and conservative commentators for some of his troubles.
But Mr. Holder contended that many of his other critics — not only elected Republicans but also a broader universe of conservative commentators and bloggers — were instead playing “Washington gotcha” games, portraying them as frequently “conflating things, conveniently leaving some stuff out, construing things to make it seem not quite what it was” to paint him and other department figures in the worst possible light.
While it is hard not to portray the most devious and political Justice Department since Nixon in a bad light, I would disagree with Holder's partial explanation of why bloggers portray him in such a negative way. As might be expected, Holder is playing the race card.
Mr. Holder said he believed that a few — the “more extreme segment” — were motivated by animus against Mr. Obama and that he served as a stand-in for him. “This is a way to get at the president because of the way I can be identified with him,” he said, “both due to the nature of our relationship and, you know, the fact that we’re both African-American.”
The bigger explanation according to Holder is that we are raving conservative ideologues who oppose him over his stands on the issues. Holder also feels that Republicans are after him as a payback for the way John Ashcroft and Alberto Gonzales were treated by their Democratic critics.

If it is ideological to want accountability for a program that has led to two dead Federal law enforcement officers and untold numbers of Mexican citizens, then I'm an ideologue as are bloggers like Mike Vanderboegh, David Codrea, Dave Workman, and others who have reported on Project Gunwalker.

Eric Holder needs to go if for no other reason than he is living in a fantasy world. What's worse is the way Charlie Savage and the rest of the mainstream media excuses this behavior. It is the equivalent of the co-dependency between an alcoholic wife beater and a spouse who refuses to press charges despite repeated beatings. Both are sad, pathetic behaviors.

  1. So Holder was willing to cause the deaths of hundreds of Mexicans by selling arms to their killers. He did this in the hopes of drumming up support for gun control here. He decided that the deaths of a bunch of foreigners was the price he was willing to pay for a domestic agenda. He looked at the dead Mexicans as tools to get what he wanted.

    I think I know who the racist is in this scenario, and it isn't us.

  2. Holder: "Stop consistently opposing tyrannical traitors non-partisanly! We're black, give us get out of jail free cards!"

  3. Michael Bane described Holder as the least distinguished AG we have ever had.

    I suspect Mr. Bane was being entirely too charitable.
