Goes to show right, who some people look up to. Amazing is it not. That some could look up too such a corrupt deceitful individual. Makes one thing, of their character. Too condone Holder, you condone lying and being a deceitful person.
We get the government that we deserve and voted for. It's part of the fallout of having a bunch of low information voters.
I think they hate him because he's extremely articulate and "uppity". They would much rather deal with guys like Sharpton or Herman Cain. That cartoon-ish character that they are used to seeing appeals to their sensibilities.
Articulate doesn't hold much water if you're blinded by bigotry. He is just articulating justice as he sees it through the lens of color.
Christ..a gun grabbing governor is the front row pick to replace Holder...
Perfect time to bring up all Holders faults, with trying to appoint a successor. I bet it gets held off until after November and then with the Senate in jeopardy, early 2015 after the new Senate is in place.
Republicans hate him because he is far superior than anything they stand for, especially their ludicrous view of the Constitution. He has been a fine Attorney General.
Yes, a legend in his own mind as they say...
Funny, it was Ronald Reagan - you know, a Republican, who gave him his first
appointment as a judge in DC.
If Holder had been fair and not reeked of impropriety, I don't think Republicans or anyone else for that matter would have pounced on him the way they did IMO. He had it coming.

I do not think AG Holder is uppity (whatever that means) at all. Nor do I think he is a bigot.
On the contrary, he is polite, well-educated, very refined, obviously intellectual, and by reputation, a very nice guy. He did quite well at in the private sector and I suspect he will again.
He simply was not a particularly good AG. He refused to take responsibility for his actions and he used the office as a weapon for his own goals rather than those of the nation. I would not doubt that a lot of that was done at behest of the President. Does not make it good policy.
Hey, he's human. He is neither the first nor the last to fail at something. Good luck to him.
MSNBC host Rev. Al Sharpton said Thursday that he is “engaged in immediate conversations” with the White House to find a replacement for Attorney General Eric Holder, who has just announced his resignation.
