No, it’s not about race:
What you don’t understand, Mr. Holder, is that there are many of us who are trying to take our country back—back from a group of politicians who seem intent on our destruction as a pillar of strength and liberty in the world. Many of your fellow citizens are dismayed by your conduct, and our anger has nothing to do with the color of your skin.
You are the first attorney general in the history of the United States to be held in contempt of Congress. This had nothing to do with your skin color, and everything to do with your failure to explain how the United States government provided guns to Mexican drug cartels that were eventually used to kill Border Patrol agent Brian Terry in 2010. This story may have disappeared from the headlines, but many of your fellow citizens are still upset our federal government would ever give guns to foreign criminals. Compounding this tragic error, neither you nor anyone else in the administration has explained what happened the night Terry lost his life. All we really know is that he was at the wrong end of a gun you approved handing over to drug dealers.
And our outrage here has nothing to do with “racial animus.” This is about personal accountability, and your failure to provide us with answers.
The black guy who wrote that is obviously a racist. Or something.
I believe the progressive term for an African American who displays animus towards another with similar skin color is “self-loathing”, rather than “racist”. Because, SHUT UP!
You mean they progressed from just calling them Uncle Toms?

I don’t recall their outrage when it was Republicans letting foreign criminals buy guns.
Nobody knew about it until Eric Holder restarted the program in Extra-Stupid form.
“I don’t recall their outrage when it was Republicans letting foreign criminals buy guns.”
Did you know about it when it happened/ Neither did anyone else.
And at least the Bush administration could recognize a stupid idea and shut it down pronto.
Tell you what Jim. You name the BATF agents that signed off on the program during the Bush Administration and hold them accountable; I’ll be all for it. Surely Holder can at least provide that information to Congress, right?
The outrageous part was Hillary, Holder, and Obama giving all these speeches calling for increased gun control North of the border and they cited violence caused by F&F guns South of the border as justification for their proposed gun bans.
Jim gets weaker and weaker. As I’ve said before, when all you’ve got is the “tu quoque,” you just might as well give it up.
