DOJ attorney resigns over Philly black panther voter intimidation case.

I'm surprised (okay not really surprised given the topic and general media) that this is not getting more attention.

The media usually loves to hear about the inside workings of government agencies. Hell, Scott McClellan was on every news and pseudo-news program out there.

More seriously, this is pretty disturbing if true and there's not much reason to believe it's not true given what we know about how this went down.

I think this will gain a little more traction in the coming weeks and months. There was some intentionally misleading statements from the administration about this, that being said I am a little surprised this hasn't been given more play.

It is up to us to dig out the facts and the truth about this case, Eric Holder and company have repeatly lied about this according to Jay Adams who was told to ignore the supoena from the civil rights commission but will now appear because he is no longer employed by the Justice department.

I think the Russian spy ring story is being used to divert attention from this case although the story being bandied about is that someone broke the spy ring thingie to embarrass Barry as he met with the Russian president with Barry pretending to be POed but the Justice Department controls the actions of the FBI and no doubt Holder initiated the arrests now, after watching the under cover Russians hobnob with democrat party movers and shakers for over ten years, to divert attention away from the Philly panthers and the Chicago, Blago corruption trial in both of which Obama and Holder were involved neck deep.

Remember Obama's butthole buddy William Ayers was deeply involved with both the old panthers and new pantheres and one of Obama's main fundraisers is now cooling his heels in a federal pen.

The Philly story is blatently being suppressed in the media and not just the slimes et al.


Classical Values :: What did the Post know and when did they know it?

But now, via Glenn Reynolds, I see that Dave Wiegel was apparently the only Post reporter to cover the New Black Panther Party voter intimidation scandal:

This is a scandal that, thanks to Rubin, von Spakovsky, and Adams, is now hiding in plain sight.

(Hopefull in the coming days, not weeks or months.)

Not only were there intentionally misleading stratements fro the admin, there were out and out lies, impeachable offenses.

Hot off the presses!!!!

ADAMS: Inside the Black Panther case - Washington Times

Christopher Coates, the former Voting Section chief, was so outraged at this dereliction of responsibility that he actually threw the memos at Mr. Rosenbaum in the meeting where they were discussing the dismissal of the case. The department subsequently removed all of Mr. Coates' responsibilities and sent him to South Carolina.
------------------------------

Mr. Perez also inaccurately testified to the House Judiciary Committee that federal "Rule 11" required the dismissal of the lawsuit. Lawyers know that Rule 11 is an ethical obligation to bring only meritorious claims, and such a charge by Mr. Perez effectively challenges the ethics and professionalism of the five attorneys who commenced the case. Yet the attorneys who brought the case were voting rights experts and would never pursue a frivolous matter. Their experience in election law far surpassed the experience of the officials who ordered the dismissal.

Some have called the actions in Philadelphia an isolated incident, not worthy of federal attention. To the contrary, the Black Panthers in October 2008 announced a nationwide deployment for the election. We had indications that polling-place thugs were deployed elsewhere, not only in November 2008, but also during the Democratic primaries, where they targeted white Hillary Rodham Clinton supporters. In any event, the law clearly prohibits even isolated incidents of voter intimidation.

Others have falsely claimed that no voters were affected. Not only did the evidence rebut this claim, but the law does not require a successful effort to intimidate; it punishes even the attempt.

Looks like Perez could be charged with perjury.

(OK, this isn't really hot off the press, it's a week old but it puts quite an onus on the Washington compost aka pravda on the potomac and the NY Slimes aka izvestia on the east river to at least mention the story which is a bombshell about to go off.)

page 2:

ADAMS: Inside the Black Panther case - Washington Times

Most disturbing, the dismissal is part of a creeping lawlessness infusing our government institutions. Citizens would be shocked to learn about the open and pervasive hostility within the Justice Department to bringing civil rights cases against nonwhite defendants on behalf of white victims.

Equal enforcement of justice is not a priority of this administration.

Conservative Galaxy Is President Obama really a racist?

Interestingly, one of the Black Panthers at the Philadelphia voting precinct was the nefarious King Shamir Shabazz that the Department of Justice let off the hook, despite a, a hate filled tirade where he said, “I hate white people, every last iota of the white crackers. If you want freedom then you are going to have to kill some white people and your going to have to kill their cracker babies too.”

I keep waiting for this to gain some traction in the MSM, but I'm not holding my breath.

That guy is one ignorant, hate filled son of a gun. I can only hope that most folks w/in earshot of his spoken bile realize that. He might as well be wearing a black hood and burning a cross.

Surprise! Guess who visited White House

Asked by WND to confirm or deny he had visited the White House, Shabazz replied by e-mail "no comment on that one."

Let me play this for you, because these guys have been left off. Militant intimidation. They've been let go.
-------------------------------------

Now, we've shown you this picture, the president with Charles Ogletree. Who is he? Well, he was a prominent lawyer, he still is; professor of Harvard University. He's a respected guy.

But let's look at his past.
----------------

He edited the Black Panther newspaper.

Bottom line is that we have been coddling these extremists for quite a while but it sure has escalated under the present administration.

Where is that drive by guy that wanted to ban me for ignorance the other day, I sure would like to rub his nose in it for a bout amonth.

Dear Liberals,

Please be advised that your Race Card account has been closed. This decision was based on your account history of excessive over-limit spending. Please destroy your card immediately as it will no longer be honored.

Sincerely, The American People

What's the latest on the killings of the two Virginia Tech students who were involved in Campus Crusades.

It seems there has been a tight media lid placed on the case, I guess because they weren't Lacrosse players.

It seems to have been an execution style event and there are rumors that they may have been beheaded.

Considering your postition, maybe you could find out something? The case was being handled by the local sheriff's dept as I recall.

It is now time to end the race card game and put these principles back to work again.


The Blast

A couple of days ago, Black Panther Chairman Shabazz made his way on Russian TV and used the time to accuse Fox News of “stirring up racial fears.” He issued a challenge to “right wingers” and the tea party, saying he’s “ready to rumble.” Shabazz was on his best behavior for the camera, Oscar worthy, when compared to his actions at closed door panther meetings.

How right you are.

Not strictly on topic but interesting:

Opinion: Obama's anti-youth agenda - Gary Bauer - POLITICO.com

Democratic presidential candidate Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.) won voters 29 and younger by just nine percentage points, Obama won them by 34 points — 66 percent to 32 percent.
---------------------------
....a closer look reveals that Obama’s agenda harms many young Americans in important ways. In fact, many may be beginning to feel that they literally cannot afford to be as exuberant about the man they so easily fell for.


Two years ago, when millions of young Americans were volunteering and preparing to vote for Obama, unemployment stood at 6.1 percent. Now, as teens continue to look for summer jobs and new graduates search for full-time positions, unemployment stands at 9.5 percent.


Current sluggish private sector job creation is hitting young people the hardest. The unemployment rate for 16-to-24 year olds approached 20 percent in April, the highest for that demographic in decades. And it hasn’t gotten much better since.
-------------------------

The picture is bleakest for African-American teens, for whom June unemployment stood at 46 percent.


Many on the left are calling for yet another “stimulus” bill to help stir job creation. But the past two have shown few results. Obama’s stimulus was predicted to create or save three million jobs. But a recent analysis finds that it will create only half a million jobs — and even those numbers are open to debate.


It doesn’t take an Ivy League degree in economics to realize who will have to pay for today’s unprecedented spending. The Congressional Budget Office projects cumulative national debt to increase in the next decade by $9.8 trillion, a sum that will mean lower standards of living for Americans in the future. Some policymakers have labeled the spending as “generational theft.”

Page two is good also.

Ramifications for UT students, tuitition will go up nearly 9% this year, due to Obama policies that have led to a stagnating economy, less tax revenues and federal funding cutbacks in favor of wall street payouts etc.

It will only become worse next year because the Bush tax cuts will end and the self destructive cycle of socialist agenda policies will make things even more dire.

Although the democrat agenda may sound nice, if you step back and take a look at it, any 18 to 22 year old should readily see they aren't voting in their best self interests to vote for a democrat.

Black Panthers Alleged Voter Intimidation Case Remains in Limbo

For instance, the Washington Times reported that Associate Attorney General Thomas J. Perrelli, the number three man in the Obama Justice Department, was consulted and ultimately approved a decision last May (2009) to reverse course and drop a complaint accusing three members of the New Black Panther Party of intimidating voters in Philadelphia during November’s election.
------------------------------

“Front-line lawyers were in the final stages of completing that work when they were unexpectedly told by their superiors in late April to seek a delay after a meeting between political appointees and career supervisors, according to federal records and interviews.

“The delay was ordered by then-acting Assistant Attorney General Loretta King after she discussed with Perrelli concerns about the case during one of their regular review meetings, according to the interviews.

“King, a career senior executive service official, had been named by President Obama in January to temporarily fill the vacant political position of assistant attorney general for civil rights while a permanent choice could be made.”

More Heat on Black Panthers Case: Did AG Holder & DOJ Drop Voter Intimidation Case Because of Racial Bias? (video) Frugal Café Blog Zone

The Bush Justice Department brought the first case against three members of the group, accusing them in a civil complaint of violating the Voter Rights Act. The Obama administration initially pursued the case, winning a default judgment in federal court in April 2009 when the Black Panther members did not appear in court. But then the administration moved to dismiss the charges the following month after getting one of the New Black Panther members to agree to not carry a “deadly weapon” near a polling place until 2012.

J. Christian Adams told the US Commission on Civil Rights that the Obama Department of Justice has a mandate not to enforce the law that includes keeping ineligible voters on the rolls.


And he named names. He testified that Deputy Assistant Attorney General Julie Fernandes told Voting Section management that there would be no more cases brought against black defendants vindicating the rights of white victims.

Adams: ‘Lawless’ Civil Rights Division Dismissed Black Panther Case – Main Justice

Adams exhorted the commission to pursue testimony from Coates directly. Thus far, the (justice)department has barred Coates from appearing.

Adams also was praised by independent Commissioner Todd Gaziano for his courage in testifying.

Gaziano, ..........expressed concern over alleged comments made by Deputy Assistant Attorney General Julie Fernandes regarding the administration’s position on civil rights suits against black defendants. Adams said that Fernandes instructed lawyers in the Voting Section not to file cases against racial minorities.

“I’m going to not only try to press the department to allow us to hear from Chris Coates, I’m going to seek a subpoena for Julie Fernandes as well,” he said.

Is this really even voter intimidation? Sure the guy used a racial epithet and that's bad, but it doesn't really coerce anyone to vote one way or the other.

The more condemning allegation is the man waving the baton, but given the paranoid nature of race relations in this country, a rolled up magazine may be passing as a "baton" in this case and who knows whether it was being shaken at anyone inparticular or not.

(and don't come back at me about the judgment, when the defendants never even bothered to respond to the charges)

It seems like a stretch to say this is some sort of slam dunk case. Moreso, considering the conservative allegiances the DA who quit has.

And even more of a stretch to see it as an indication of high level black bias on the part of the administration.

The AJC was quoting someone else. I haven't seen anyone rebut the statement, however, that the decision to drop the criminal charge came before Obama was president.

I'm not sure I see the analogy because the precinct at issue was very much a Democratic precinct. I mean, if you are going to intimidate, why intimidate peoiple who are going to vote for your candidate?



I do think what these guys did was totally wrong. I agree that attention needs to be paid to it. I'm not sure the proverbial federal case needs to be made out of it.

What a moronic post. These racist terrorists deserve to be put in prison, voter intimidation is voter intimidation regardless of color.

And make no mistake about it, with Barry it's all about race, read up on black theology.
