America’s justice system has become a three ring circus with Eric Holder as the ringmaster. He performs in each ring according to his audience. To the general uninvolved public, in the first ring,  he appears to be the epitome of jurisprudence. He challenges state laws and refers to “the law of the land” as rebuttal. He is quick to assert himself into any situation that might be considered a grey area, often corrupting the meaning of the intended law. There is almost immediate retribution for an infraction committed by anyone who is not a person of color; while he defends and excuses the lawless actions of those who are people of color. Example: Black Panther intimidation near a polling place in Philadelphia, dismissed. I could go on but this should give you a general picture. He seems to think that it is HIS decision which laws to enforce and which laws to ignore. That does not sound like equal justice and representation to me.

In the second ring, an audience filled with people of color, he whines about inequality, adding himself and the president to those who feel disenfranchised. The truth is that neither he nor the president are descendants of those whose ancestors were American slaves. The president is half white but decided his white heritage would reduce his chances of success. They have chosen to take perverse advantage of people of color in order to advance their personal ideals. How sad that the two highest ranking people of color prefer to keep their devotees under their thumb so they can enrich themselves. Both the president and the Attorney General should be touting the benefits of learning, as a means to lift oneself out of poverty. Instead, they use their bully pulpit to extract sympathy and work the crowds into a divisive frenzy. Where they should set an example of Americans united; they further divide the masses and cast aspersions on any whose opinion differs. An opposing point of view is not met with a discussion of each side’s reasoning, it is met with an accusation of racial bias. This may be an approach used by the unschooled; however, the educated person who uses such an approach is most definitely attempting to incite a riot. Divided we fall.

The third ring is filled with smoke and mirrors. It is not likely that anyone will know what is inside of that ring until some future date. This Attorney General, the first ever in American history to be held in contempt of Congress, prevails by delaying requested data, claiming ignorance of the facts, (although he is quite intelligent) and alluding to the information as being a security risk thus redacting almost every word of any documents he has presented. Quite an about face from the whining search for sympathy he displayed in ring number two.

“Fast and Furious”, “Benghazi”, “I.R.S.”, and “S.E.C.” inquiries and litigations  will undoubtedly go on ad infinitum. The lawsuits being filed as a result of his violations of our Constitutional rights will insure his job security forever; and, since they were the result of his actions as Attorney General of the United States, the legal proceedings will most likely be at the expense and burden of the American taxpayer.

Since the birth of our nation, people have emigrated to its land because of the freedom it offers. They have come from all parts of the globe to escape every kind of oppression. They have come to begin anew. They have come to fulfill their hopes and dreams. The legacy of this current president and his administration will have changed their dreams into nightmares. The freedom of America is being supplanted by the ideals of extremists. Unless Americans are brave enough to stand up for freedom, our children will suffer the same oppression that their ancestors tried so valiantly to escape. God help us!
