So he did. Utilizing a convenient excuse.
From the WashingtonTimes.com:
Holder cancels appearance in OKC amid angry protests
by Kelly Riddell
Attorney General Eric Holder canceled his appearance before the Oklahoma City Police Department’s graduating cadet class Thursday amid angry protests over his scheduled visit.
Mr. Holder was scheduled to deliver remarks at the graduation ceremony at 2:30 p.m. ET, according to his official itinerary sent out by the Justice Department Thursday morning.
Mr. Holder’s scheduled visit to Oklahoma City drew the criticism of several conservative lawmakers who planned the protest anticipating his arrival, including state Rep. Paul Wesselhoft, Republican, who has stated he believes that Mr. Holder should be impeached.
“Our protest has turned into a victory celebration because we frankly didn’t want him here — and we succeeded,” Mr. Wesselhoft said in an interview. “This man has used his position to advance his own political agenda and that’s not right. He swore to uphold the U.S. Constitution and defend it for all of us — not some of us.”
Carla Russell, one of the about 100 activists who came out for the rally, held a sign that read: “Holder is a Terrorist.”
So here comes the excuse:
But an early meeting at the Justice Department delayed Mr. Holder’s departure from Washington, causing him to miss the graduation ceremony, spokesman Brian Fallon said in an e-mail.
Bullshit alert. It was pushback on a racist extremist, plain and simple.
Perhaps a few more facts are required, per the article:

Holder is an embarrassment. The only reason he is there,,,is because he is a negro like the president.
He is there to embarrass all whites.
That’s it.
Essentially true. Holder holds his position due to melanin.
Certainly not because of an amazing amount of training, education and experience.
BZ
and philosophy.
He is also there to promote Islam and Communism. He should be in jail.
He is just continuing the role he learned as Deputy (Assistant?) Attorney General in the Clinton Administration. But he can’t be questioned or criticized because that is racist.
True.
BZ
He’s a piece of true human garbage. The fact that he is in charge of enforcing this nation’s laws is disgustingly ironic.
