'Nation of Cowards'

Attorney General Eric Holder says America has yet to come to grips with its racial past.


What's unfortunate is that Attorney General Eric Holder's "nation of cowards" comment stole attention away from an otherwise brilliant speech.

I have been going back and forth on this for days, and I now believe that he should have chosen his words more wisely. Sometimes people try to motivate others by issuing insults - kind of like the high school football coach or the military drill sargeant or the personal trainer calling you a fat slob.

Mainstream America is not aware of the amount of tough love that many Black people grew up experiencing which we later learned to appreciate. This is one of the reasons why Jeremiah Wright is so villified by the White community.

But in this case, I think his comment was a little over the top, even though I support his overall message.

racism? Boo fucking hoo.

Obama is failing the troops and the economy.

Oh no thats racist.

Now instead of ignorant name calling, since thats all you libtards know how to do, got any positive ideas for job growth?

Lets use facts. When one resorts to name calling, it's because they have no debate.

Eric Holder, the Attorney General's job is to prosecute criminals. We don't need you to lecture America on race relations. When you show that you can overcome the incompetance, witlessness and haplessness you've brought to the disclosure of top secret memos, the KSM trial, the closing of Guantanamo in particular and the War on Terror in general, be careful whom you call a coward.

's/word/worst/' typo, but it sure as hell not as "hypocritical" as the Fuhrer saying he'll end this needless war, then sends in more troops, and assassinates US civilians.

@Pinckney12

Considering you missed the point. I'll spell it out for you.

You Libtards like to come off as "intellectual hipsters" while at the same time sabotaging the economy and watching your precious climate gate exposed by REAL innovators and hackers. What a fucking joke. You make the word business men EVER and problem solvers! Bunch of fucking phonies.

Libtard = phony, counterfeit, intellectual hipster

Get a job you stinky, non showering, rabble rousing hippy.

PHONEY!

@Pinckney12

You spelled Solyndra wrong. "See the hypocrisy?!?!?!?!?!?!"

Fail!

Most likely missed the ultimate point.... again.

Double FAIL.

Libtard Fail.

How's that hope/che` nge thing working out?

Your Fuhrer is failing.

@Pinckney12

Libtard is a technical term. It's a noun. meaning anyone dumb enough to believe a fucktard politician to implement real "change".

In a a sentance: Pinckney12 is a libtard who voted for communit obama and all we got was solyndra, more patriot act, national defence authorization, more troops, more debt, more infaltion, dead border patrol, Thanks asshole. Thanks for pointing out the shit that doesn't matter. No wonder you libtards cant see the shit that does. Fool.

[Pinckney12]

Racism will go away if we stop the anger, the arguments and get all the niggers off welfare. LOL @ 2:51 he says coons.

@thablackmarkit

..."Now instead of ignorant name calling, since thats all you libtards..."  LOL Anyone else see the hypocrisy in that statement? Nice try, but you fail.

Continuing to talk about racism is what keeps racism alive. Racial tensions between whites and Chinese people are almost non-existent. And there were thousands of Chinese who died building the railroads for this country. If I am constantly reminded that my black friend is different than me as Mr Holder suggests, I'm going to act differently around him and see him as a different human being. The dialogue he suggests is already brought up all the time by the race pimps al sharpton and Jesse jacks
