Holder: Sikh Temple Shooting ‘An Act of Terrorism’

U.S. Attorney Eric Holder, speaking at the Sikh Temple shooting memorial service in Oak Creek, Wis., on Friday, called the tragedy “an act of terrorism, an act of hatred,” and “a hate crime that is anathema to the founding principles of our nation and to who we are as an American people.”
The gunman, identified as Wade Michael Page, shot nine people at the Sikh Temple of Wisconsin – killing six and injuring three others. Page, a suspected white Supremacist, died from a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to police.

What about Ft. Hood that wasn't

DUH! but when a you know what does it, it's not?

Why hasn't the Fort Hood shooting been called that?

So were the new black panthers at the voting place in Philadelphia, and the gun sales to the Mexican drug dealers. Both of those were an act of terrorism. Where does Holder stand on those issues?

But the Fort Hood Massacre wasn't an act of terrorism!!

Everyone already knows it was an act of terrorism, just like the Fort Hood shootings were (which he and Janet Napolitano called "workplace violence"). However, his comments ring hollow in my ears because he is a liar just like his boss. He has absolutely no credibility even when he speaks the truth.

"He has absolutely no credibility even when he speaks the truth."

You mean credibility with you, right? Because even you state that he is telling the truth.

So you aren't making any sense.
