Libertarian Think Tank Removes Piece Comparing Eric Holder To George Wallace

[DonViejo]

The Cato Institute on Thursday published and quickly removed a piece comparing Attorney General Eric Holder to segregationist George Wallace.

In the column, senior fellow Ilya Shapiro said that Holder had the "most divisive tenure of any attorney general I can recall, tearing the country apart on racial and partisan lines," according to a cached version of the piece.

After arguing that Holder was the worst attorney general ever, Shapiro jumped into the George Wallace comparison.

"Like a modern-day George Wallace, Holder has called for racial preference now, racial preferences tomorrow, racial preferences forever," he wrote.

1. I'm not Holder fan, but seem to have missed the part about him calling for racial preference.

2. They ought to be ashamed of themselves

hey ought to be ashamed of themselves.

I don't care about your banksters or your weed whine or effin NSA fears - this is fucking despicable and let me tell ya something-


Black folks? We KNOW that accusation was not true.

The person who posted it can eat shit and die as can the sneaky little weasel that took it down.

They need to OWN their words. Because right there - we all just saw WHAT they are. Not who - but WHAT they are and how they operate.

Same bullshit different day -"it's the black folks who are the racists".

In 20 years they will have everyone believing that Robert E. Lee was a black man.
