Eric Holder says Republicans have made him a ‘proxy’ to attack President Obama

Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. sharply criticized lawmakers Monday for voting to hold him in contempt of Congress last week, saying Republicans have made him a “proxy” to attack President Obama in an election year.

In his first interview since Thursday’s vote, Holder said lawmakers have used an investigation of a botched gun-tracking operation as a way to seek retribution against the Justice Department for its policies on a host of issues, including immigration, voting rights and gay marriage. He said the chairman of the committee leading the inquiry, Rep. Darrell Issa (R-Calif.), is engaging in political theater as the Justice Department tries to focus on public safety.

“I’ve been doing all of these things all the time Darrell Issa and his band have been nipping at my heels,” a defiant Holder said. “They’ve been nipping, but I’ve been walking.”

Well, Congress does have the power to arrest him.

Oh very true, but the question is "does Congress have the WILL to arrest him?"

To which the answer is:

If Holder were to head directly to the Office of the Speaker Weeper of the House, drop his drawers, squat on Boner's desk, and dump a big steaming load right there, all that would happen would be a resolution chiding Holder for being 'environmentally insensitive', and even then the Congressional Black Caucus would walk out in protest, saying "wish we'd thought of that first, dat Holder, he be da MAN!"

About the time he took the job as Attorney General, Eric Holder gave a speech in which he called this great country “a nation of cowards” on race. That’s the same nation that had just elected Barack Obama president and was willing to let Eric Holder lead the justice department, despite his role in pardongate and all his baggage from the corrupt Clinton administration.

Has Eric Holder ever spoken out against Black Entertainment Television for being racist, or Ebony Magazine for being racist, or Essence Magazine for being racist, or Al Sharpton for being racist, or the Congressional Black Caucus for being racist? According to Martin Luther King Jr.’s words of wisdom, all of the above are racist because they judge people not by the content of their character, but the color of their skin.

Eric Holder thinks America is racist? Check the mirror, Eric Holder. Check the mirror.

So, Eric, does that mean that “the 0” is a criminal like you?

[Fresh Wind]

How in the world does allowing thousands of weapons to fall into the hands of Mexican drug cartels constitute focusing on “public safety”?

But then Eric withHolder quite possibly doesn’t consider Mexicans to be actual people because their skin isn’t the correct shade of brown.

Sure not my "proxy"; not any sort of surrogate, either. Full of yourself, aren't you? Even the MSM put it in quotes because you don't know what the word means.

Yo, Holder, no one around here's afraid to "attack" either of you on your own, for your own shortcomings, no "proxy" or surrogate needed.

So there. Deal with it, loser.

Come on "My People", just say it in English; Whitey's using you as Barry's Whipping Boy. Like a plantation owner, or Nobleman of old, used a Slave to beat when it his own son or Prince who did something wrong.

Come on Eric you can say what you really feel; 'All Crackers Are Racist!'
There isn't it better now that it's off your chest.

Just another pussy hiding behind the skirts of authority, from the same odious mold as the marxist maggot who hired the dishonorable piece of shite.

We don’t need a ‘proxy’, Mr. Holder. We can do two things at the same time. ;o)
