"We have reinvigorated the important work of our Civil Rights Division. Not only is this office once again open for business, it has never been stronger," Attorney General Eric Holder said at a speech to the American Constitution Society. "Now, some of you know during this administration's first fiscal year the Department filed a record number of civil rights criminal cases," Holder added. "We've also expanded enforcement efforts to guarantee that in our work places, our military bases, in our housing and lending markets, in our voting booths in our border areas, in our schools and places of worship. And I mean all places of worship," Holder also said. Holder speaks of prosecuting those who deny us of our basic civil liberties, however he himself dropped a case against the New Blank Panthers for "violating the Voter Rights Act in November 2008 by using coercion, threats and intimidation at a Philadelphia polling station."

And in turn, American business has become very, very cautious about hiring black people. How are the numbers looking, Mr. Holder?

No joke. Apparently “civil rights” are for muslims, blacks, and other preferred races.

Whites, Chistian, and Jewish peoples need not apply.

Ya think Holder can start his investigation by investigating himself?

Translation: The horse that pulls the job creation wagon has died, so we re-opened the buggy whip factory.

Meanwhile back on the Idi Obama Plantation, the black unemployment is seasonally adjusted for summer, sun spots, moon rays, wind gusts and dust devils to a Recovery Summer Part Deaux 16.3% and climbing.

The ones that don't openly embrace homosexuals as Fruits of the Spirit.

I wasn’t aware that it ever closed down. Especially not with this president and AG.

When are we going to have a “civil rights division” for white people?

It’s the Orwellian name for the “Get Whitey Division”.

Knowing that it’s Eric ‘my people’ Holder doing the talking, I have to suspect that this is a ploy to use the Justice Department to harass those who, say, might object to an Islamic mosque being built in close proximity to Ground Zero. I’m just saying.

It’s probably, as others have said, a cover for attacking “Christian homophobic hate speech”, ie, Romans 1.

These people [I use this because of Holder's DIRECT statements] do not have equality or true-justice on their mind. It is revenge, plain and simple. Were they to have their way, "Holder's People" would be walking about in camouflage uniforms, with heavy weapons enforcing their own version of 'justice'. They are nothing more than Nazis. Years ago, there was a white supremacist book out called the Turner Diaries; seems like a lot of things come to pass, eventually.

We’re not supposed to mention that book around here,
but, you’re right - the society described by the anonymous author appears to be coming to fruition before our eyes.

So, when are they going to set up the “white refugee” camps complete with the rape tents?
