I agree..likely nothing will come of it...perhaps lots of courtroom drama, but it will be dragged indefinately thru the system...Bo will be long gone and on to other things by then.
Plus it's highly racist.
The point isn't the severity of the incident, it's the philosophy of allowing a culture to develop that believes it is OK.
“The case could damage the Obama administration, says Mr. Lichtman at American University. But he also argues that most Americans understand that the Voting Rights Act was intended to correct gross and historic injustices, not nit-pick along partisan lines.
‘You can try to force [the Voting Rights Act] to be equal, but it’s not,’’ he says. ‘If these are the worst examples you can find, then, by God, white people in America are pretty safe.’”
Discrimination against blacks: bad. Discrimination against hispanics: bad. Discrimination against jews: bad. Discrimination against whites: good.
It’s a bit premature to be discussing Impeachment, but I agree that this issue is fertile ground for an impeachment investigation. At this point, we need to stay focused on taking the House and as many Senate seats as possible. Once Nazi Pelosi’s Politburo is dead and buried, then I think we need a full-blown Congressional investigation into this and other DOJ excesses over the past 2 years.
Let’s not forget about the Huttaree Militia case. Contrast the way DOJ went after Huttaree over what they were purported to have merely discussed, versus what the NBP actually did and said on record, repeatedly. While Huttaree members are charged with “seditious conspiracy” (among other things) the NBP members get a free pass.
Add in suing Arizona over immigration policy among many other things and it’s pretty clear that there is a very troubling and very Public track record, and given the glimpse into the can of worms that Chris Coates has opened, it’s clear Congress has room to act if only they make the political decision to do so. Getting Pelosi and her minions out of power is going to open up any number of other cans as defeated Dhimmies start coming clean after the elections.
No telling what else may pop up after the elections, but we need to take back control of the Congress before anything else can be done...
Texas Fossil is hoping a Republican controlled Congress will go nuclear on the DoJ and Obama,
They quote Allan Lichtman, a liberal professor at American University and attack dog for the left, as saying that minorities i.e. non-whites, are far more discriminated against than whites. Yet he provides no proof for that assertion. The implication is that he is correct. There is no interview with a conservative opposing Lichtman’s false remarks.
Clintoon stacked the DOJ with other traitors exactly because of his legal and other ethics charges.. Clintoon hired ALMOST ALL new lawyers at the DOJ over his first term.. Bush and Karl KNEW THAT.. did nothing..
y’all are all dreaming.......obama and his crew are above the law.
...they complain against the “lawful” use of opposition “poll-watchers”; as well as being asked on occasion to provide any sort of basic voter ID
COMMISSIONER MICHAEL YAKI: You were also there in 2005. There were allegations that investigators for the State of Mississippi who were armed went into the homes of elderly, minority voters, in municipal elections asking them who they voted for. Generally for them, they felt very intimidated. I believe that a complaint was relayed to the Civil Rights Division. Can you tell me what the disposition of that complaint was?
COATES: Yes. And since Mr. Perez talked about that in his testimony, I'm going to talk about that, too. I was in charge of that investigation as the principal deputy. And we interviewed African-American voters in Panola - the name or that jurisdiction is Panola County Mississippi. We interviewed telephonically witnesses who had some investigators from the Attorney General’s office come in. They were doing a voter fraud investigation. They asked these people they interviewed for whom they voted.
There is a Mississippi law that prohibits that except in very special circumstances. Judge Lee, for example, in the Ike Brown case would not let lawyers on either side ask for whom people voted. We did that investigation, and I recommended that we do a complete investigation in Panola County, because I felt that those questions were inappropriate and improper, and it was not a way to conduct, properly conduct a voting fraud investigation. My recommendation in that regard was not followed, and the matter was not followed up.
YAKI: Who did you send the recommendation to?
COATES: Mr. Schlozman.
*** They use the same kind of intimidation against black voters that the New Black Panthers are shown on video doing in this case.***
Anyone remember one of the literacy questions given to blacks years ago to see if they were qualified to vote(back in the bad old days).
“How many bubbles are there in a bar of soap”!
>This is where impeachment might come from. <
Obama has done more than enough on an almost monthly basis to be impeached. It just depends on the congress and senate doing it. No actual crime needs to be committed for impeachment to take place.
But you have to have the will of both houses. Without it you only leave him in a stronger position I think. With that thought in mind, - being realistic, we will never have such a majority in the houses prior to Obama’s re-election bid (if he even has one).
I think our best bet is to keep bringing attention to all his folly and toss it back on his fellow socialists who are trying to destroy the country. I don’t want to see Obama outed in disgrace just to see another take his place.
I want to see all of them brought out into the light for the traitors to our country that they are so none of them can hold an office again.
Does that make sense?
>Gonna lead to some uncomfortable questions for the big liberal newspapers and tv networks to answer.<
did you notice that a couple big wigs in the MSM got sacked recently? They are already preparing plausible deniability
What an idiot. Voter intimidation against minorities is always prosecuted with endless media coverage while voter intimidation acts against whites aren't prosecuted and ignored by the media.
Would be poetic justice to put Sheriff Joe in charge of them.... smiling here just thinking about that!
The ignored it because, if they had covered the story, he WOULD HAVE been done.
Yea, whites not rioting, that is the problem - we should be string them up, but what - crickets!
To WHO?
Most of the 'public' doesn't know who Coates is, but they know who Colbert is.
you got that right
