Saturday in Denver at the Western Conservative Summit former Governor Sarah Palin (R-AK) slammed Attorney General Eric Holder for his appearance on ABC’s “This Week” last Sunday when he accused Obama administration detractors of being motivated by race.

Palin slammed Holder, saying, “I don’t need lectures from Eric Holder.” Taunting him, she continued, “Not many cabinet members in U.S. history have been held in contempt of Congress.”

The Tea Party firebrand urged, “instead of shamelessly playing that race card,” he should look at the protests in black and latino communities about the resources going to the illegal immigrant children flooding across the U.S. Mexico border.

Palin said, “That racism charge is a disgusting, false charge. Just because someone opposes a failed unjust agenda that makes them a racist, Mr. Attorney General?”
