When you don’t have an intellectually sound support on which to stand, yell RACISM!! The Daily Caller on Eric Holder’s latest “defense” of accusations of wrongdoing in the Fast and Furious case:

Attorney General Eric Holder accused his growing chorus of critics of racist motivations in a Sunday interview published in the New York Times. When reached by The Daily Caller Monday morning, the Department of Justice provided no evidence to support the attorney general’s claims.

Holder said some unspecified faction — what he refers to as the “more extreme segment” — is driven to criticize both him and President Barack Obama due to the color of their skin. Holder did not appear to elaborate on who he considered to make up the “more extreme segment.”

“This is a way to get at the president because of the way I can be identified with him,” Holder said, according to the Times. “Both due to the nature of our relationship and, you know, the fact that we’re both African-American.”

Yeah. Trying to hold Holder accountable for the royal fuck up that is Fast and Furious is definitely motivated by him being black. Could he be any more of a douche?
