Holder s Minority Report
by Ledge Slater, official DP intern stud

Wednesday, August 15th, 2012,

(WASHIGNTON) –Responding
Wednesday to another round of inquiries to the Justice Department’s crusade to
stop states like Florida requiring voters to produce a state-issued identification
in order to vote, Attorney General Eric Holder stated to the Senate Judiciary Committee
that some ethnic groups in the U.S. were “simply biologically incapable” of
procuring government issued IDs, and so declared that requiring all voters
provide IDs to vote would be “discriminatory.”

Holder was called before the Committee to
explain the Justice Department’s recent increase in agents (over 100) it has
assigned to investigate allegations of “voter suppression” in Florida and other
states. However the Committee got more
than it bargained for when Holder stated, “Throughout history numerous
ethnicities and those of poorer backgrounds have been prevented from voting.…Things
such as ‘poll taxes’ and literacy tests were imposed mere decades ago, and requiring
all voters to produce government-issued IDs today is in the same vein of those discriminatory
practices then.”

“And let’s be frank,”
continued Holder, “much of the anthropological data (the Justice Department)
has acquired concludes that people of certain ethnicities are simply biologically
incapable of obtaining voter identifications.”

Holders statements were met with stunned
silence by Committee members, until after…

    If he realy said that it would be a stunning affirmation of the racist bias Eric Holder has interjected into DOJ policy. When the DOJ walked away from a summary judgment against the New Black Panther Party for intimidating voters at a Philadelphia voting poll there were charges that the DOJ had an internal policy of only pursuing White on Minority instances of voter intimidation.

    As Americans we all deserve equal protection under the law. If Obama wins in November you can count on continued depredatory acts by the worst DOJ in the history of the country.

    Although this story is satire, the reality is just as aggregious in my opinion. Holder and others in the Democrat Party assume that black Americans are too lazy, stupid or unresourceful to obtain the necessary I.D. It's offensive. It's a perfect example of the "soft bigotry of low expectations."

    But, if that is their story, then I would suggest that if it is culturally offensive to identify yourself here in America, go back to where you came from and take Horse'sass with you.
    All government papers ask for race, etc. If those who would refuse ID would just go home perhaps we could go about the business of repairing this great country for the people who want to be here and live by her rules.

    Holder's right! Everybody knows blacks, Hispanics, etc need a permanent leg up. They can't make it on their own. They're simply incapable by nature of race/socioeconomic status. It's a matter of policy for crying out loud.

    . . .And these pinheads have the gonads to call conservatives 'racist.'

    What a load of bull. He's trying to say it's discriminatory to ask even illegal aliens to prove they are eligible to vote. He claims in their countries they don't have to prove who they are, they just go in and vote. Well welcome to the USA prospective voters.

    Now that I see the source of this quote, it's obvious that it's a gag.

    The sad thing is...... that a coment like this wouldn't really be that much of a stretch coming from Holder.

    I initially believed it because it fit so perfectly and explained prior actions to a T.
