Voter Intimidation is OK

Attorney General Eric Holder has dropped the voter intimidation case in Philadelphia, PA against the New Black Panther Party. Three members of the new Black Panther Party were originally charged with voter intimidation. Two were dressed in black military garb, at a polling entrance on election day, when they brandished a baton and threatened voters. Eric Holder has dropped the case without ANY explanation. Huh? We have a video tape of the incident which clearly illustrates their illegal behavior. What's going on here?

Apparently under the Obama administration it's OK to violate the civil rights of voters. The US Commission on Civil Rights sent a letter to the Justice Department stating: "We believe the Department's defense of its actions thus far undermines respect for rule of law." It further noted "the peculiar logic" of dismissing the case when the defendants refused to show up in court. The Commission on Civil Rights stated further: "Such an argument sends a perverse message to wrongdoers-that attempts at voter suppression will be tolerated so long as the persons who engage in them are careful not to appear in court to answer the government's complaint."

The House Judiciary Committee just voted along party lines 15 (D) against 14 (R) to reject further investigation into these charges. Eric Holder has stonewalled this investigation and now the Congressional Democrats are supporting him. What the Hell is going on here? Is this a cover up?

This blog has previously mentioned the strong possibility of voter fraud by using uncertified electronic voting machines in 32 states! Remember too that ACORN has been charged in at least 12 different states for voter irregularities – including false voter registrations! This is just another example of this administration's lack of concern for enforcing the law an protecting US citizens while voting. Goodbye liberties!

Action To Take
Call the White House and let them know that they need to explain why this decision was made when we have video evidence that this crime was indeed committed. Demand that these three men be held accountable for the civil rights violations.
