Do you agree with holder on this or is this more racial talk to further put America back?


Personally I think holder should step down.

... only if they are deceased or illegal citizens, then yes - their voting rights need to be taken away.

1. He is absolutely correct that the recent upsurge of voter ID laws has been motivated to make it more difficult for minorities, who tend to support Democrats, to vote.

2. I'll only even consider any of the other points in your post or in the article if you provide the actual text of his remarks that demonstrates he "vilified white people".

Default Eric Holder tells NAACP that whites want to take away their voting rights.

Eric Holder wouldn't know the truth even if it crawled up his leg and bit him on his pelosi.

For decades we have voted without photo I.D.

OP, can you explain to me why the sudden change of heart? Why is it so important for us to have photo I.D. right now?

Well, to be fair to Mr. Holder, the original 2012 handbook for white people DID have "strip black people of their voting rights" as a goal for 2012. But I believe after the committee met for revisions, it was left out of the final draft because they could only get a plurality, and not a supermajority, approval.

We'll see when the first copies of this year's handbook are delivered at the end of the month.

I'm not OP but I'll answer anyway.

Because of criminal democrat organizations like Acorn that bus the same load of homeless people from polling place to polling place to vote democrat in the name of Adolf Hitler, Mickey Mouse, and Tony Romo.

Why is it that democrats are so frothy-mouthed at any attempt to curtail vote fraud?

I proposed in another thread that we do as the Iraqis do and stain your finger purple after you vote. It comes off eventually, but not the same day you vote. Any of you sanctimonious guardians of voting rights got a problem with that?

What's the source of the quote contained in the OP? I doubt the Attorney general said what he's reported to have said.

I do think some white people are attempting to keep some blacks from voting. That seems to be the overall gist of what the extremists in the Republican Party are attempting. Remove certain collective bargaining rights. Make voting more difficult. Offer racist rhetoric and behavior regarding a black U.S. President. These people are anti-American, not patriots. The next thing they'll be suggesting is national identity cards ... a "1984" enviornment. Yes, there's a lot at stake in the next national election. Our freedom. Defend it. Vote Democratic.

And you rely upon a story without a single quote and Holder wouldn't know the truth?
