There must be something in the DNA of left-wing Democrats which cause them to disparage America and Americans. The latest evidence of this is the comment by Obama's attorney general, Eric Holder, that America is a "nation of cowards." Yesterday, Holder called the United States "a nation of cowards" when it comes to race.
He said: "Though this nation has proudly thought of itself as an ethnic melting pot, in things racial we have always been and continue to be, in too many ways, essentially a nation of cowards." The fact that Obama and Holder, both black, have been elevated to the highest and close to the highest offices in the land demolishes Holder's radical belief. In America's bloodiest war, the Civil War, hundreds of thousands of Americans courageously gave their lives and limbs to rid America of the blight of slavery.
Holder -- who played a role, as the number two official in Bill Clinton's Justice Department, in releasing a number of really true cowards, a group of Puerto Rican terrorists at the end of the Clinton administration -- revealed in his statements yesterday how truly radical the Obama administration will be in administering justice in America during the next four years.
Just how he will radicalize the Obama justice department was revealed after his speech before department employees during an event commemorating "Black History Month." Holder told reporters that the department's civil rights division (in a clear slap in the face of President George W. Bush) "has not gotten the attention it deserves, the resources it deserves and people have not been given a sense of mission. I am bound and determined to make that section the vital place that it always has been."
No, Mr. Holder, America is not a nation of cowards. America is the nation which has courageously come to the aid of nations -- which have been overrun by despots and cowards -- such as France in World Wars I and II, and more recently Kuwait, Iraq and Afghanistan. From a president, who during his campaign, condemned middle-class Americans for "cling[ing] to guns or religion," it is no surprise he picked as his attorney general someone who accuses Americans of cowardice.
