Joe diGenova: Holder's 'Racial Animus' Charge Unfair, Unfounded

Remarks by Attorney General Eric Holder imputing racism to his critics reflect "a political immaturity that is truly staggering," former federal prosecutor Joe diGenova told Newsmax TV "MidPoint" host Ed Berliner on Wednesday.

"Any normal person who had been in government as long as Eric has been . . . would've learned by now that this type of incendiary rhetoric, which is baseless in fact . . . is simply unacceptable for a senior government official," said diGenova.

 In a fiery retort to the attorney general's recent interview with ABC News, diGenova said both his "old friend" Holder and Holder's boss, President Barack Obama, were alleging racism against an unspecified "some" to excuse their failings in office and deflect legitimate criticism.

He called Holder's generalized claim of racial resentment "utter nonsense" and "faculty lounge crap." He also suggested that Holder was taking his rhetorical cues from the president, whom diGenova compared to a "street urchin" running a con.
