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.

The media advisory below is from the Joe Pags Show via The Gateway Pundit�

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.
