Serious inquiries into potential Justice Department malfeasance related to voting rights are gaining momentum. Finally.
The inquiries stem from the Justice Department's subversion of its already-won voter-intimidation case against members of the New Black Panther Party. Ever since choosing the Black Panther case as the subject of its annual statutory investigation and report, the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights has emphasized that its larger aim is to discover if the department led by Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. has made a policy choice to de-emphasize or forgo protection of the civil rights of white Americans. The commission has secured sworn testimony to that effect.
On Friday, all seven Republican members of the Senate Judiciary Committee wrote committee Chairman Patrick J. Leahy, Vermont Democrat, demanding a hearing into the matter as a "priority over other committee business." They stated, "If these alarming allegations are true, the Civil Right Division [of the Justice Department] is actively engaged in widespread politicization and possible corruption."

Just like the ACORN Story, Van Jones etc... etc... a day late and a dollar short.
The MSM knows just exactly how long they can ignore a story thats detrimental to Bambi, just long enough for it to lose its oomph and then they quickly report it for a day or two then on to the next distraction.
Gotta drive the conversation back on track.
Bingo!
Contact your congress critters and tell them to get with the program, or start updating their resumes.
Bump!
I would love to see this in commercials the week before the election. “Vote early, vote often avoid Obama’s Panthers at the Polls”. - Bumper Sticker?
A good bumper sticker!
The fact that the NAACP resolution came out of the blue during a period of relative tea party silence was not lost on me. I knew it was a distraction and it came at a time when it looked like the voter intimidation case was going to land directly in Obozo’s lap.
The department?
Oh.. the Obama-Holder Department of JustUs.
Funny how that worked, eh?
The eeeeeevil Fox is ubiquitous enough now that this may be a miscalculation. Not seeing any more mention on heir usual See BS, enough high minded folks will turn the dial and voila! there it is on Fox.
If I were a friend of Obama and his piñata Holder, I would tell them to do something about this BEFORE the elections in November. Guys, deal with this now, and throw the NBPP under the bus or else in November, if the Republicans take over, they will deal with it, and they will bring hell with them.
That would be good advise and most normal people would take heed.
Obama is not normal people however. He and his thugs think they can do just about anything they want and for the most have up until now, legal or not.
If the Repubs take control of the House he’s in for a big surprise, his ignoring the law in the future will come to a halt. He will also be held accountable for his past transgressions and as you say, they will bring hell with them.

Vote November 2...and take along a pair of black pampers, just in case.
