Obama Justice Department Rocked by Investigation Findings
newsflavor ^ | November 24, 2010

Posted on 11/24/2010 9:50:22 PM PST by InvisibleChurch

The implications found within the 144 page report issued by the non-partisan U.S. Commission on Civil Rights regarding the investigations into the New Black Panther voter intimidation case from 2008 appears to strongly indicate a cover up initiated by figures within the Obama Department of Justice, and quite possibly the White House itself. Within the context of this cover up, are found accusations of intimidation and non compliance within the Department of Justice throughout the comprehensive investigation.

At the heart of the investigation are allegations the Department of Justice aggressively prevented some within its own department from fully and fairly investigating the Black Panther voter intimidation case filed shortly after the 2008 presidential election. Page 85 of the report indicates members of the Obama administration felt the DOJ should primarily focus on charges brought on behalfof minorities, not against them – in essence, an institutionally approved and promoted form of reverse racism. When some DOJ officials raised concerns over this, they were, according to the details of the report, subjected to intimidation and marginalization by their superiors within the Obama Justice Department. Primary among these examples was former Department attorney Christopher Coates, who testified to the commission that the DOJ had, “deep seated opposition to the equal enforcement of the Voting Rights Act against racial minorities and for the protection of white voters who had been discriminated against.” Shortly after raising concerns over the New Black Panther case having been dropped by the Department, Coates testified to the commission that his authority was systematically reduced and his concerns over the handling of the New Black Panther voter intimidation case ignored, ultimately leading to his resignation from the DOJ.

Is that ‘sulfur’ or ‘impeachment’ I smell in the air.

Start with issuing subpoenas on day one and start at the top. That will send a message to the underlings and they will sing like drunken jailbirds to save their sorry souls.

What did the president know, and when did he know it?

"...in essence, an institutionally approved and promoted form of reverse racism."

Language not only expresses what we are, it shapes our selves.

The phrase quoted above is a disturbing example of how we have become inculcated with the notion that only White people are capable of racism.

There is no such thing as "reverse racism." A policy is either racist or it is not. If it favors one group over another based on race, then it's racist - and that's the end of it.

We have to stop soft-peddling our characterization of those who do violence to justice (and its institutional "Department of") by not calling them what they are - racists.

To socio-babble the explanation as "reverse" racism, only perpetuates the notion that they are reacting against a wrong, rather than the truth - that they are commiting a wrong themselves.

Holder, The Usurper and their minions are the fruit from a poisoned tree named "Hate" and its vile branches named Jackson, Sharpton, Cone, Farrakhan and Wright.

Oh Oh, the racists at the justice department have been exposed to the light of day.

If we didn't have fires burning our of control in so many areas, this might to have an honest conversation with Mr. Holder.

Maybe this is the “scandal” the Ulsterman was referring to, released just before Thanksgiving.

So what? Nothing will be done about it. Look at Rangel. He'll probably get a raise and a promotion.

Rules, Laws, and Prison Sentences are for non-Liberals.

I believe his informant said that the scandal would begin in Washington, then move to Chicago, before finally returning to Washington for it's final phases.

When the new Congress takes office, it will be much harder for the dems to circle their wagons!

Dept of Justice is certainly a misnomer.

There does not appear to be much justice these days. Tom DeLay could go to prison, but Charles Rangel gets a slap on the wrist. And Barney Frank gets reelected.

You’re right, but only for now. We’ll see how the Tea Partiers and Republicans handle it when they take over the House in just over a month from now.

This is all hogwash, they need to disband this commission and destroy all of these false findings immediately.

We need to let Obama finish what he started.
