Eric Holder is a disgrace

Just moments ago, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder held a press conference at the Department of Justice in Washington to announce that the dirt-bag conspirators who orchestrated the 9/11 terrorist attacks will be held in a Military Tribunal court, instead of a civilian court.

That's a sigh of relief, as Holder and President Obama have stood by their original plan to hold a trial in civilian court right in Manhattan just blocks away from where the World Trade Center was destroyed.

However in today's press conference, Holder seemed extremely bitter about several things. He blamed Congress for intervening into the Administration's decision, saying that "They tied our hands in a way that could have serious ramifications. In reality, I know this case in a way that members of Congress do not. Do I know better than them? Yes." 

Apparently Mr. Holder has demonstrated that he is perhaps the most ineffective, ignorant and non-productive Attorney General in our nation's history. He should know that Congress has every right as representatives of the American people to add their opinion on this particular issue since it was the biggest tragedy in our nation's history and has deeply affected the families of those innocent people killed on that day. 


But Mr. Holder doesn't care anything about that. He seemed to ignore the fact that in several of the leading polls, more than 70% of Americans did not want the conspirators tried in a civilian court, much less in downtown Manhattan. And now, since Mr. Holder feels that the damn bipartisan Congress got in his way because they took into consideration the feelings of the American people, he is sour grapes about this.

Moreover, this circus involving Khalid Shaikh Mohammed and the rest of these despicable examples of humanity, has been delayed on a number of occasions because the Administration has yet to close Guantanamo Bay and they can't decide on which court would be more appropriate to hold a trial for these scumbags.

It has been almost ten years since the 9/11 terrorist attacks on our country, and there is still too much talk and no walk. The Department of Justice could have picked any place to hold a trial, like out on a military base in Montana, or some deserted island south of Tahiti, and now after a year of wanting to hold the trial in New York City, Mr. Holder finally says they'll be held in a Military Tribunal instead of a civilian court and is adamantly angry about it.

Everything this Attorney General does is a complete disgrace. He refused to do anything about the Black Panther voter intimidation issue and refused to even read Arizona's illegal immigration law even though he spent an entire month criticizing it and now he stands by his original plan of trying the 9/11 conspirators in a civilian case, despite the fact that Congress listened to the will of the American people who didn't want them tried here in the first place.

Mr. Holder just go away. Please!

Peter King, Louis Farrakhan and Radical Muslims

In what some people are calling as "McCarthy" style series of Congressional hearings, New York Congressman Peter King, recently elected as Chairman of the House Homeland Security Committee, began a series of investigative hearings into radical Muslims in the United States yesterday. This is not to say that all Muslims are bad people, a handful of them are good people and I'm happy to say that I have friends who practice Muslim as a religion.

However there are a few bad apples right here in America and in the Middle East.

In the last two years, there have been several attacks on our country's soil by radical Muslims. Yet, the Department of Homeland Security and the Obama Administration continue to all but deny this. The shooter who screamed "Allah" after murdering soliders at a Fort Hood army base in Texas, the Time Square and Underwear bombers and a young boy named Carlos Leon Bledsoe who converted to Jihad. All of these cases in the last couple of years, were carried about by Radical Muslims.

Yesterday, the father of Carlos Leon Bledsoe gave testimony at Congressman King's Committee hearings and expressed a great deal of sorrow that there was nothing he could have done to prevent his son from becoming a radical Jihad which ultimately concluded in the fatal shooting of a U.S. solider at a Little Rock training base in 2009 all in the name of Allah.

But apparently, the Congressional hearings are all but ignored by just about everyone in the media. So much so that CNN, MSNBC and Fox News did not even bother to bring much attention to the hearings, nor did C-SPAN even bother to broadcast it live.

However one commentator on CNN, Fareed Zakaria said today " There is no question we should be investigating the radicalization of American Muslims.  But by “we” I mean the FBI, the Department of Homeland Security, and local law enforcement, not Peter King".

Wrong Fareed.

Congress has ultimate responsibility and oversight of every branch of the Federal Government, including the President. Congress has, for the better part of several years, tried to persuade the FBI, CIA and the Department of Homeland Security to investigate radical Muslims in America, which the far-left apparently didn't like. And yet, the far-left still doesn't like to investigate this. President Obama won't even mention it as a critical problem happening right now inside the United States. As far as Attorney General Eric Holder and Homeland Security Secretary Janet Napolitano are concerned? Well, they don't "have the time".

Meanwhile we have Gaddafi killing his own people in Libya, and last week Louis Farrakhan, who is the leader of a group called The Nation of Islam in Chicago and not to mention a friend of President Obama, gives a speech saying Gaddafi is not killing his own people and that the "Jews in America are the devil".

No condemnation from Obama or Holder. Tell me something, is Obama's friend Louis Farrakhan a radical Muslim in America?

I think so.
