West: That’s your last race card, AG Holder
Florida Representative Allen West told The Daily Caller that Attorney General Eric Holder has used the race card one too many times;
“I think this is absolutely the last card in the deck, and that shows how weak their ground is,” West said in a phone interview. “But, what that means is they want to make white individuals afraid of continuing to put the pressure on Eric Holder because they don’t want to be seen as racist, and that is something that we have got to move beyond.”
Holder had told The New York Times over the weekend, in a front page Sunday story, that he thinks those who are criticizing him have racial motivations to do so. Holder said some unspecified faction — what he refers to as the “more extreme segment” — is driven to criticize both him and President Barack Obama due to the color of their skin.
Well, Holder has used that as an excuse to deflect criticism too many times for conservatives to take him seriously any more. It’s like water off a duck’s back.
Holder uses it now to deflect criticism from the Left and to keep them on the metaphorical and rhetorical plantation these days. The Left are the only ones who chafe from the “racist” charge anymore.
Thanks to ROS for the link.

Many of us could not care less the color of the man’s skin or that of his boss. It just doesn’t matter. We simply expect them to do their jobs – not just well but exceptionally well.
Don’t like that standard? Then step down.
Thank you, Allen West, sir, for standing up for ALL of us.
Didn’t MLK say “Don’t judge a man by the color of his skin, but by the content of his character”? Well, mr. Holder (and your boss Obama), we aren’t looking at the color of your skin; we’re still looking for your character.
Perhaps the greatest contribution of the Obama Administration to the welfare of our country is that the have rendered the race card worthless. Obama said he would heal the racial divide, but I sincerely doubt this is what he had in mind.
@2. Yup, he said that, as he boinked his 83rd woman in as many days. Don’t blame me, he’s the one who invited us to judge his character.
Guy’s such a shitty lawyer/AG he can’t even use the ideology card to deflect criticism the way John Reno did. Nope, they got one card, and one card only.
“Holder had told The New York Times over the weekend, in a front page Sunday story, that he thinks those who are criticizing him have racial motivations to do so.”. Not really, Mr. Holder, you just suck at your job. If you don’t like the criticism, just resign, then you won’t have to hear it.
Of course MLK Jr. said that; he was a Republican.
Ok so which do you think is better role model for young black men. . . West who seeks for his accomplishments to bring credit to his race, or Holder who wants accomplishments or credits because of his race
Race Card player = incompetent who can’t think of anything better to justify their screwup. Kinda like those who think speaking louder than their opponent wins the argument.
My Irish ass is gonna go watch some Blazing Saddles. Sheriff Bart and the Waco Kid, now there’s some positive role models for all races right there.
Think this would work for a white man playing the race card?
…as Holder puts the RACE CARD on the bottom of the deck, from where he will draw it for the next usage………..
