"Horse bleep! Whenever a liberal says they want to have a ‘conversation’ or a ‘dialogue’, what they really want is for you to sit there and shut up and listen to them lecture you...."

Beautious.

I’ve heard that oversized clothing started in the jails & the street thugs want to emmulate that. Wonderful society, ain’t it!?!?

Holder thinks he’s actually relevant. People like him are the ones that keep racism going.

“I hang out on Wednesday nights and Sunday mornings with Methodists. I wonder if Holder thinks that makes me cowardly anti-Semitic or anti-Catholic”

Good analogy.

Yeah, let’s go yakking on about the problems each race has with the other races so that we can start a race riot. Fun for the whole family!

From the article...

"Holder said that the country is now a “fundamentally different” place than it used to be, but that the nation “still had not come to grips with its racial past, nor has it been willing to contemplate, in a truly meaningful way, the diverse future it is fated to have.”

For those of you that don't speak Democrat Victomology, allow me to translate.

"We wants our reparations and weez gonna get 'em."

The very plan of Porkulas was a plan to get back at the white power structure, bail out minorities who had bad mortgages, and put profit in the rear of our economy. Stimulus is for losers in our society and punishes producers. The Swedenization of America. BHO is a tyrant after just 4 weeks.

Land IS a form of wealth (as far as I know), and 0 DOES think spreading the wealth is kinda cool.

Statement: "Race issues continue to be a topic of political discussion, Holder said, but "we, as average Americans, simply do not talk enough with each other about race."

Response: I don't think the blacks would like a "Talk" about race, and still less would they appreciate any action on the topic.

"Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards.

Mr. Holder, I live my life based on these words spoken 45 years ago in Washington D.C.

I have a dream that my four little children will one day live in a nation where they will not be judged by the color of their skin but by the content of their character. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day, down in Alabama, with its vicious racists, with its governor having his lips dripping with the words of interposition and nullification; one day right there in Alabama, little black boys and black girls will be able to join hands with little white boys and white girls as sisters and brothers. I have a dream today. I have a dream that one day every valley shall be exalted, every hill and mountain shall be made low, the rough places will be made plain, and the crooked places will be made straight, and the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together. This is our hope. This is the faith that I go back to the South with. With this faith we will be able to hew out of the mountain of despair a stone of hope. With this faith we will be able to transform the jangling discords of our nation into a beautiful symphony of brotherhood. With this faith we will be able to work together, to pray together, to struggle together, to go to jail together, to stand up for freedom together, knowing that we will be free one day.

Unfortunately, Mr. Holder does not live his life by these words. He continues to judge by the color of one's skin rather than by the content of one's character.

Can racial-enlightenment-re-education camps be far off someplace in the future, after this kind of rhetoric?

Wow, Mills Godwin. Now there's a blast from the past.

I have always found it ironic that the two Senate office buildings are named after Richard Russell - the Democrat Senator who led the filibuster against the Civil Rights Act - and Everett Dirksen - the Republican Senator who overcame that filibuster to get the Civil Rights Act passed into law.

Russell would continue his segregationist ways just as Jimmy Carter would invite Lester Maddox to run on his gubernatorial ticket, while Dirksen would go on to write the Voting Rights Act of 1965.

Republicans. Go figure.
