Peter King: Holder ‘Doesn’t Deserve To Be Attorney General’ (VIDEO)

Rep. Peter King (R-NY)

Rep. Peter King (R-NY) declared on Fox News this morning that Eric Holder “doesn’t deserve to be attorney general” and is “putting all Americans in danger.”

King described Holder as “an attorney general who eight and a half years after September does not realize that our enemy is radical Islam, (and) is either so politically correct or so out of touch that he doesn’t deserve to be attorney general.”

He just does not get it and he’s afraid to stand up and say our enemy today is radical Islam.

“If he does not, he’s putting all Americans in danger.”

King also lashed out about plans to build a mosque near the World Trade Center site in downtown Manhattan, saying “it is very offensive and wrong” for a mosque to be “within walking distance of where so many Americans were killed by radical Muslims.”

“Obviously we cannot blame all of Islam for what a handful of terrorists did,” he continued.

Obviously.
