The House Judiciary Committee voted against a measure on Jan. 13, that was previously introduced by Rep. Frank Wolf, R-Va., that would have required the Department of Justice (DOJ) to explain to Congress why it dismissed a voter intimidation case involving members of the New Black Panther Party at a polling place in Philadelphia in November 2008.
Mr. Wolf, the top Republican on the House Appropriations subcommittee that funds DOJ, introduced a “resolution of inquiry” in December. The measure, H. Res. 994, was defeated 15-14 on a party-line vote.
“I am deeply disappointed that Judiciary Committee defeated my resolution of inquiry on a party-line vote. There has been no oversight, no accountability and certainly no transparency with regard to this attorney general and this Department of Justice,” Mr. Wolf said in a written statement.
Mr. Wolf noted that the Obama administration promised ...

“Then it’s Ok to bring guns and stand in front of Polling places?”
It’s OK to bring nightsticks if you wear the right kind of arm band.
I live in this sick city. I don’t need reminders of what goes on here. But thanks for the ping anyway.
Is anybody pursuing this thing in civil court?
Was the intimidation limited to nightsticks? Were other weapons brandished as well?
Side note ...
A friend of mine was raised to learn street fighting in Philly and later in New York. This friend told me that New Yorkers aren’t half as tough.
On this issue alone, the entire DNC has been flushed out as terrorist lovers and brown shirts once again.

~~~
All I saw on the tape were the sticks and their “uniforms”.
I don’t know the law in other states but Louisiana law
is 300’ from a polling place ,,,
NO passing out anything,hanging out,no protests,,NO NOTHING.
I agree. Nightsticks are Nazi enough, especially when the Socialist Sheeples’ Party blocks legal action against their brownshirts.
I was really shocked when I saw this,,,
Years back I can remember the bars and stores couldn’t
even sell beer when the polls were open,,,
They have other ways to put the “fix” in of course but the
polls are “sacred ground” here,,,
Nobody would put up with this krap...
Despite the Coakley/Brown race, this will be my leading ping for today ...

No, as far as I know. This is a weakness of the Republicans and of the conservative movement in general. The Tea Party hasn’t filled this void either.
Any future violence stemming from people intimidating poll intimidators will be a direct results of the Obama DOJ doing nothing about this. Mark it down. Are they stupid enough to think those jerks wont show up at the polls again?
