Obama says yes to voter intimidation
…if its African-Americans doing the intimidating.
This is so disgusting its surreal. If those dudes with nightsticks were white, they would have been in jail that evening and plastered all over the news as a beacon of proof of the white man’s racism. It would have been the right thing to do, and I’d be breathless distinguishing reasonable people from such horrid people. Problem is, they call themselves the New Black Panther Party and they aren’t white.
As this trial/process was coming to a close, higher ups in the DoJ called off the dogs. This despite the video of proof that was all over the internet on election day showing their intimidation in action. This is on AG Holder and Obama, and gives a pass to the kind of behavior we deride in banana republics.
Add this to the Sotomayor identity politics bullshit, and Obama is showing himself to be a corrupt, race-driven blowhard. Equal protection under the law no longer applies, apparently. Our President is an embarrassment.

This is astounding: the name Obama is not used once in the entire article, nor is the word President.
Are you honestly so short of things to blame on him that you’ve resorted to this? My car didn’t get washed last weekend… it must have been Obama’s fault. How dare he.

Its well known that each President presides over his Justice Dept both vicariously through the AG, and sometimes directly. Its been that way for decades.
Let me ask you this: do you approve of them being let off with no repercussions? If you choose to ignore the obvious, at least tell me that they should be punished.

Absolutely, they should be punished. I completely disagree with them being let off, but that’s not my qualm. This had little or nothing to do with Obama. Holder, yes. Obama, no.
