Black Panthers courted by Obama's justice department.

Wow. I hope this bothers the hell out of every single one of you who read this, black, white, yellow, or other.

What voter intimidation?

An excerpt ...

To support its evidence, the government had secured an affidavit from Bartle Bull, a longtime civil rights activist and former aide to Sen. Robert F. Kennedy's 1968 presidential campaign. Mr. Bull said in a sworn statement dated April 7 that he was serving in November as a credentialed poll watcher in Philadelphia when he saw the three uniformed Panthers confront and intimidate voters with a nightstick.

Inexplicably, the government did not enter the affidavit in the court case, according to the files.

"In my opinion, the men created an intimidating presence at the entrance to a poll," he declared. "In all my experience in politics, in civil rights litigation and in my efforts in the 1960s to secure the right to vote in Mississippi ... I have never encountered or heard of another instance in the United States where armed and uniformed men blocked the entrance to a polling location."

End.

And next we will get the US census courtesy of ACORN.

Third world unemployment, the government take over of fortune 500 companies, control of banks and unprecedented debt.

Yep, it's a change alright.

Your boy Hussein did. And I feel sure you are quite capable of wetting yourself without my help.

No wonder Delta is in the toilet.

I guess we will bail out all the affirmative action pilots with sub prime house and sub prime car loans next.

jmart. I am quite the profit today.

If you look up you will see me say that I'll watch you make yourself look stupid. CHING CHING CHING! Sometimes, I really impress myself.

ps. Sniffles, I don't believe, ran as a beacon of hope or change either.

Do you think for one millisecond I would trade lives or jobs with you given the chance Laughing out loud ? Would you like a hint?

Hey diva....

"..I am quite the profit today."

I doubt you are a profit today. Not many of those around these days. Now, you may be a prophet today. But, I question that too.

Just messin' with ya man!!

Other than amusing yourself and wetting yourself ...

Do you think you could possibly find time to read the topic and comment on it?

You support the decision to let the Black Panthers off the hook for voter intimidation and violating the voter rights act? You disagree with Obama's justice department? It's really not a difficult question. I'll give you time to quite laughing at yourself and change into dryer clothes.

So whenever you said: "What is quite interesting to me is you and your amigo's desparate (sic) attempt to make this case about President Obama."

It makes me have to ask, Mr. Profit, have you figured out yet that it is Obama's justice department? By the way....would that be profit as in Mohamed? Not at all surprised.

wow,,,ummm,,jmart.

First I commented on this. Then I posted the time and date of my comment on this. And you still can't find it. Okay. You win. I'll leave you alone now. Obviously, when I said the "clowns should be punished," I really meant what you wrote, "You support the decision to let the Black Panthers off the hook.." You are good.

You can't bring yourself to say Obama's inJustice Dept. ...

Is it really that hard for you to say it? You have to avoid it like the plaque? Maybe if you start keeping a tally you find other reasons w

Try this: I strongly disagree with this outrageous miscarriage of justice by the Obama administration's Justice Department (which you said you could see a connection with by the way).

I have seen you lambaste bloggers and GW Bush for much less.

By the way, for future reference, I don't speak Spanish so i don't have "Amigo's".

Outrageous but predictable

Submitted by USArmybrat on Sat, 05/30/2009 - 7:15am.

These thugs should've been arrested, tried, and convicted but I remember speaking to my kids as we watched the video of this online. They were as appalled as I was at what was happening but I predicted that the thugs would get away with it. Sadly, that was true.

So if some "skin heads" showed up....

at a polling station and did the same thing would the response be the same? What the heck is this all coming to?

Obama Administration protects Jackbooted Thugs

Submitted by Fred Garvin on Sat, 05/30/2009 - 6:45am.

The charges against these guys were dropped. Blatant intimidation at a polling place and a violation of the voting rights act and the charges were dropped. Only one of them received any discipline at all. His punishment? He can't bring a weapon to a polling place until November 12, 2012. Welcome to fascist America people. We now have an administration that does not intend to protect the rule of law and allow all Americans to vote. The Obama Administration (Holder) will however protect jackbooted thugs that intimidated voters at the polls.

Those of you who voted Obama in, you're getting exactly what you voted for. A dangerous man who has no real interest in keeping this country safe or great.

The government is like a baby's alimentary canal, with a
happy appetite at one end and no responsibility at the
other. -- Ronald Reagan

Obama/Bush are equally dangerous...

Submitted by DarthDubious on Mon, 06/01/2009 - 12:52pm.

and neither intends to protect the law, which is the Constitution, nor keep this country safe , or great.

They are front men, puppets who take their orders from banksters, how long will it take for you to open your eyes, huh? Bush policy continues, and accelerates with Obama. Barry is the closer. The NWO is coming inside of the next 4 years.

May your chains rest lightly upon your wrists.

Who's Dangerous?

Submitted by AtHomeGym on Mon, 06/01/2009 - 4:01pm.

Got a shocker for you DD--George Bush is a private citizen with no role in governmental decisions about anything. From here on out--at least for the next 40-some months, the current administration gets the heat for screw-ups and yes, applause for smart actions too.

The point AHG that you, and most refuse to get is...

Submitted by DarthDubious on Mon, 06/01/2009 - 5:23pm.

THERE IS NO DIFFERENCE BETWEEN THE TWO!!! You want to argue semantics? OK: Obama is just as dangerous as Bush WAS. Is that better?

You that buy into the fake left-right will never have a government that works right, because the two parties are the same and you will not acknowledge it. You will argue over petty issues instead of standing up and saying "ARREST THE BANKERS!!!"

And when the bankster puppet masters are done riding the Obama wave as far as they can, they will destroy him just like they did Bush, and usher in another Madison Ave. advertisement of hope and change that you'll believe in and get screwed another 4-8 years.

What is the definition of insanity? Performing the same experiment over and over, expecting different results.

Vote third party in 2010. The Republicrats have got to go.
