Holder corrupts Black Panther probe--Attorney general is on the wrong side of facts,law & ethics
The Washington Times ^ | January 6, 2011 | Editorial

Posted on 01/07/2011 9:31:50 AM PST by jazusamo

Justice Department whistle-blower J. Christian Adams says Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr. "tampered" with two ongoing investigations into voter-intimidation by members of the New Black Panther Party. Tampering or not, Mr. Holder clearly prejudiced the case by publicly misrepresenting it.

"There is no 'there' there," Mr. Holder told the New York Times last month about the Black Panther scandal. "The notion that this made-up controversy leads to a belief that this Justice Department is not color-blind in enforcement of civil rights laws is simply not supported by the facts. All I have on my side with regard to that is the facts and the law."

To the contrary, two Justice Department lawyers have sworn under oath that Justice's Civil Rights Division exhibits a pervasive hostility against race-neutral enforcement of the law. They independently cited multiple examples of this hostility, an attitude supported by Obama appointees. Four more former department officials - two in sworn affidavits - confirmed the bias. The same thing was told to The Washington Post last autumn by three current Justice lawyers and corroborated by other officials to The Washington Times.

Julie Fernandes has flat out lied about her statements and Holder has basically lied by omission in not correcting her.

The words "Democrats" and "Ethics" are polar opposites...

Similar to "Democrats" and "Pro-Life"

Don’t forget that Nixon started going down over a simple little burglary.

They know, based on past experience, that they will be allowed to get away with lying.

That's correct and yesterday Lamar Smith, Chairman of the House Judiciary Committee issued the first oversight letter to the Justice Department, this is not going away.

So true, it’d be great to see that change.

If the GOP is only going to control one wing of Congress, I'd much rather it be the House, for budgetary and oversight reason, plus it can't be filibustered, so a majority actually means something there.

Obama must have never figured on having GOP control of the House this soon, he's gonna rue the day he decided he could act like a dictator beyond the controls of Congressional oversight.

Well said. Obama’s pathetic agenda is going to come to a screeching halt if the GOP in the House doesn’t fold. It doesn’t look like they will if they continue on the path they’ve started, they wasted no time at all.

Throw in the notorious criminal behavior in (among others) the Mark Rich and FALN pardons and you have a pattern of conduct utterly antithetical to Justice. He is a serial felon whose resignation should be demanded by the Republican House.

You’re right, the Republican House should make it clear they want Holder’s resignation. His conduct as AG and as Asst AG in the past should disqualify him for that position.

Black Panthers threaten violence yet aren’t prosecuted. A left wing nut shoots people and it’s Sarah Palin’s fault. They may even try to figure out a way to charge her for it.
