Where “My Peoples” At? (AG Eric Holder and the Black Panthers)
Six Meat Buffet ^ | March 1, 2011

What a candid admission. After stonewalling a Congressional investigation for two years into accusations of race-based law enforcement, soon-to-be Former Attorney General Eric Holder finally snapped and started flexing the Black Panther tattoo on his biceps in front of his mixed race interrogators:

The Attorney General seemed to take personal offense at a comment Culberson read in which former Democratic activist Bartle Bull called the incident the most serious act of voter intimidation he had witnessed in his career.

“Think about that,” Holder said. “When you compare what people endured in the South in the 60s to try to get the right to vote for African Americans, and to compare what people were subjected to there to what happened in Philadelphia—which was inappropriate, certainly that…to describe it in those terms I think does a great disservice to people who put their lives on the line, who risked all, for my people,” said Holder, who is black.

Umm, is 1960s Alabama on trial today? Apparently so. Again. As institutionalized white-on-black crime is non-existent these days, Holder feels it necessary to put his thumb on the blind scales of Justice and reconcile the cosmic ledgers against Crackerdom.

Presumably, “my people” aren’t all Americans. “My people” are his people. Black Panthers making threats and brandishing batons and making racial slurs to voters in front of a Philadelphia polling station on election day are “his people”. Being forced to enforce the laws, that is his function, against “his people” is anathema to what Equal Rights Under the Law means to Eric Holder.

Is Eric Holder the Black Bull Connor? His strident defense of the indefensible on race-based grounds would certainly suggest as much. Like Connor, his unapologetic advocacy of segregated justice has motivated more people against him than to his side. For a reminder of what happened exactly that sparked the Inquisition of Attorney General Blackie McBlackman, Fairest Sheriff For 12% of Americans Across The Land:

The episode—which Bartle Bull, a former civil rights lawyer and publisher of the left-wing Village Voice, calls “the most blatant form of voter intimidation I’ve ever seen”—began on Election Day 2008. Mr. Bull and others witnessed two Black Panthers in paramilitary garb at a polling place near downtown Philadelphia. (Some of this behavior is on YouTube.)

One of them, they say, brandished a nightstick at the entrance and pointed it at voters and both made racial threats. Mr. Bull says he heard one yell “You are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker!”

In the first week of January, the Justice Department filed a civil lawsuit against the New Black Panther Party and three of its members, saying they violated the 1965 Voting Rights Act by scaring voters with the weapon, uniforms and racial slurs. In March, Mr. Bull submitted an affidavit at Justice’s request to support its lawsuit.

When none of the defendants filed any response to the complaint or appeared in federal district court in Philadelphia to answer the suit, it appeared almost certain Justice would have prevailed by default. Instead, the department in May suddenly allowed the party and two of the three defendants to walk away. Against the third defendant, Minister King Samir Shabazz, it sought only an injunction barring him from displaying a weapon within 100 feet of a Philadelphia polling place for the next three years—action that’s already illegal under existing law.

These are the defendants that Eric Holder stood up to be counted with. Well, defendants who didn’t attack America on September 11th anyway. In a slam dunk case, waiting for the verdict, he dropped the charges and then has refused any inquiries as to why for almost two whole years.

Now we know. He’s righting historical wrongs from 50 years ago. A lifetime ago.

Eric Holder should be impeached yesterday and his bigoted reign at Justice cannot be over soon enough. As long as The Klan With A Tan is lynching the rule of law, there is no faith in the DOJ while Blind Justice swings from its tree.

Not a chance in Hell that Obambi will toss Holder under the bus....if for no other reason than the fact that he agrees with him on this, no doubt.

Sorry. You are awake. Retro Marxists have taken over the WH and are systematically dismantling the country.

'My peoples' Holder says. Well 'My peoples' mostly want entitlement, that's their idea of justice and the result of having been schooled in affirmative action ideology and the 'we wuz slaves' mentality that they will never abandon. So now we know racism is nothing more than a weapon, wielded so all the left can coordinate their attack.


President Panther speaks...


Holder and Obambi are racists of color.

Holder will be out of office in two years - and we’ll likely not hear much from him again, thank goodness.

We do however, have a hint in Holder’s candid remark of the off-the-record conversation content that occurs at the White House these days on a regular basis according to a new book coming out

There is something missing in his eyes. There is no “there” there.

Attorney General Holder is a RACIST.

He says so himself in public.

He prosecutes based on the color of people’s skin.

Reverend Martin Luther King would be so proud.
