Heh - Eric Holder FAIL!

Wonderful bit of cognitive dissonance from US Attorney General Eric Holder. From American Glob (hat tip Instapundit):
Journalists Required To Show IDs at Eric Holder�s Talk On The Evil of IDs
If you think it�s fine for the government to force you to buy something but you�re insulted by the idea of having to prove your citizenship in order to vote� you might be a liberal.

Obama�s attorney general Eric Holder spoke to the NAACP today and described voter ID laws as racism
Attorney General Eric Holder went off script today to say that voter ID laws like one being implemented in Texas are �poll taxes,� equating the requirement that voters show a state-issued photo ID in order to cast ballots to the Jim Crow laws of the early 1900s.

�Many of those without IDs would have to travel great distances to get them and some would struggle to pay for the documents they might need to obtain them,� Holder said in a speech to the NAACP on Tuesday, referring specifically to a law being implemented in Texas. �We call those poll taxes.�
Too bad every single journalist in the room was subjected to such a harsh form of racism.

And the line in question is this one:
NOTE: All media must present government-issued photo I.D. (such as a driver�s license) as well as valid media credentials.
Hypocrites. This is about people being bussed in to flood the ballot box with phony votes. This is not about fairness -- they are running scared and feel that their only option is to flood the ballot boxes. Posted by DaveH at July 10, 2012 11:08 PM
