Holder: People are only upset about Gunwalker because I’m black

Eric Holder says that all the criticism of the Gunwalker scandal is because he is black:

“This is a way to get at the president because of the way I can be identified with him,” he said, “both due to the nature of our relationship and, you know, the fact that we’re both African-American.”

Really, Mr. Holder? Really?! The ATF trafficks thousands of weapons to Mexican drug cartels, makes no effort to track them, and won’t explain why. The Justice Department promotes the perpetrators, and punishes the whistleblowers, and obstructs the Congressional investigation. The US Attorney spits in the face of the victims. Holder himself can’t keep his story straight. And the only possible reason for someone to be upset is because Eric Holder is black?!

No, the person bringing race into this is you, Mr. Holder.
