Did Dr. Keith Ablow actually hear what Attorney General Eric Holder said yesterday while visitng Ferguson, Mo.? Moreover, does Ablow understand what the word "literally" means?

The answers to both questions are unclear after Ablow's latest appearance on Fox News Channel's "Outnumbered" on Thursday.

A week after Ablow said that First Lady Michelle Obama is too fat to promote childhood nutrition, the member of the Fox News Medical A-Team was back on the program to rail against Holder for supposedly inciting racial tension:

Think of the difference between Robert Kennedy going after Martin Luther King's assassination and saying that he, too, had lost someone in his family and that he understands the pain of the other race. And here's Eric Holder, reprehensible, a dismissible human in terms of his job description, he can't do his job, who literally goes there and says, 'No, we are separate and you can't trust the caucasians.' Unbelievable.

It certainly would have been unbelievable, but Holder "literally" did not say that. Perhaps Ablow would have preferred that Holder, the nation's first black attorney general, hadn't brought up his race at all.
