Holder in Feguson: I am the AG but also a Black Man

Isn't the American Justice system supposed to be blind? One system for all? Evidently not.

#2 You have also been held in contempt of Congress for withholding evidence pertaining to international arms deals to known narcotic and human trafficking criminals of a formally recognized national government.

Also known for not defending the integrity of the IRS and for that matter the office of the Attorney General.

Also known for saying to the effect that no matter what the due process jury outcome for Khalid Sheik Mohommad is, he will stay in prison. Nicer way of stating he gets a fair trial then we hang him. Not something the top cop should be saying.
