Will the Dems' health care Christmas Present to America be an improvement or detriment to our health care system?


The U.S. Department of Justice seal bears a Latin phrase: "Qui Pro Domina Justitia Sequitur." The motto refers to the attorney general, "who prosecutes on behalf of Lady Justice." But under President Barack Obama's politically corrupt DOJ, Lady Justice is getting the shaft.

To wit: Let's examine the uproar over Attorney General Eric Holder's decision to protect hate-mongering thugs who harassed and bullied precinct workers and voters on Election Day in Philadelphia. Oh, wait. There's been no uproar. Let me tell you why.

*** Special Offer ***

Two weeks ago, in a highly unusual move, Holder dismissed default judgments his department had won against two of three defendants charged with violating the Voting Rights Act. On Nov. 4, 2008, a billy club-wielding militant in military-style boots and beret stood outside a Philly polling location with a similarly dressed partner. Citizen journalists from the Pennsylvania-based blog Election Journal captured the menacing duo on video. One of the watchdogs observed: "I think it might be a little intimidating that you have a stick in your hand."

That was an understatement. Witness Bartle Bull, a Democratic lawyer who organized for Bobby Kennedy and worked for the civil rights movement in Mississippi, signed a sworn affidavit decrying the Election Day brutishness. Serving as a poll watcher that day, he called the behavior of Samir Shabazz and Jerry Jackson "the most blatant form of voter discrimination I have encountered in my life."

One of them, Bull reported, taunted poll observers: "You are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker."

If the pair had been dressed in white sheets, pandemonium would have broken loose. But the ebony-clad thugs were members of the New Black Panther Party who had been dispatched by Malcolm X wannabe Malik Shabazz to "guard" the polls. Translation: Protect them from scrutiny. Shield them from sunlight. Keep independent voters and observers out.

Who is Malik Shabazz? The bespectacled race hustler grabbed the spotlight in the weeks after the September 11 terrorist attacks by defending Osama bin Laden, blaming President Bush for 9/11, bashing Israel and blasting our Founding Fathers as "snakes." His group also infamously rallied behind the Duke University lacrosse rape hoaxer. And on the day before the presidential election last fall, one of Shabazz's "field marshals," Minister Najee Muhammad, held a "black power" rally promising to send his forces to polls across the country "to ensure that the enemy does not sabotage the black vote."

The Bush DOJ filed suit against Malik Shabazz, Samir Shabazz and Jerry Jackson in early January 2009. None of the defendants filed an answer to the lawsuit, putting them all into default. Instead of taking the default judgment that DOJ is entitled to against all of the defendants, the Obama team fully dismissed the lawsuits against Malik Shabazz and Jackson. Jackson, you should know, is an elected member of the Philadelphia Democratic Committee and was a credentialed poll watcher. Witness Greg Lugones told me, "Obama campaign operatives were on site throughout the entire episode."

Former Justice Department official and voting rights scholar Hans Van Spakovsky added: "I have never heard of the Department dismissing a case it has already won by default. They have … sent the message that hurling racial epithets and slurs at voters and intimidating and threatening voters at the polls is fine with the Holder Justice Department -- at least if you are African-American. I seriously doubt that would have happened if the races had been reversed in this case."

Exactly. And the harassment was aimed not just at voters, but at white poll workers trying to ensure a fair and lawful process in a city infamous for machine politics and street money pollution.

Who are the racial cowards, Holder?

On the heels of this voter intimidation protection plan, the Obama Justice Department issued another decision that undermines electoral integrity -- but bolsters Democratic voter drives. The department this week denied the state of Georgia the ability to enact strict citizenship voter verification rules previously approved by two federal courts. As Georgia Secretary of State Karen Handel explained: "DOJ has thrown open the door for activist organizations such as ACORN to register non-citizens to vote in Georgia's elections, and the state has no ability to verify an applicant's citizenship status or whether the individual even exists."

On top of all that, Holder recently politicized the legal review process involving the contentious issue of D.C. voting rights. After careful study, the DOJ's Office of Legal Counsel (OLC) issued an opinion that a House bill on the matter was unconstitutional. Holder, who supports D.C. voting rights along with Obama, overrode his staff lawyers' ruling -- and simply ordered up an alternative opinion that fit the White House agenda.

Lady Justice is now protected by a security force armed with billy clubs and lawyers who serve the cause of protecting the re-election of Barack Obama over the rule of law.

Tip of the iceberg...
One day soon I hope the American people will wake up and realize what exactly is happening to our country. This is a progressive destruction of our values and our safety as a nation by the liberal left unequaled by any other time in history. Conservative historians (truthful) will show how our nation is being destroyed from the inside by our liberal, godless leaders in the years to come (if we still have a country).
Eric Holder is a disgrace to our nation and his words and actions are inexcusible. Ms Malkin exposes the horrible truth to this voter intimidation incident that would have provoked riots in the streets had it involved whites in the suspect roles. God help us, we need it.

Very good read...
Malkin is a gifted pundit, and she has a good asset in this black conservative. http://theblacksphere.blogspot.com/2009/05/obamas-cyber-se curity-farce.html Here he discusses how Obama is "protecting" America

We lose...


It seems clear from Ms. Malkin's column, that we can predict the outcome of the next two elections.



2010 : In banner headlines the following day...

"DEMOCRATS WIN IN LANDSLIDE !"

and,

2012 : Also in banner headlines the following day...

"OBAMA AND DEMOCRATS WIN IN LANDSLIDE !"




Whats that I hear?
No justice no peace?

Well, when the king is wicked, so are all of his servants.

We now have anarchy coming from the WH and peace is not possible under a criminal gang.

This amounts to a crime at the highest level.

Are We Having the Discussion Mr. Holder?
Dear Mr. Holder:

You said America needed to have a discussion on race. Is the current discussion regarding a supreme court nominee a good start? How about your actions as Attorney General and how you look the other way when race is involved?

What is your opinion regarding Latina judges v. white ones? What about other minority judges v. white ones? What about the Ricci case? I'm sure there are more 'race' issues we could talk about, but this is a good start. I eagerly await your reply.

Malcolm X wannabee Malik Shabazz
Malcolm X was a better, braver man than Malik Shabazz. He ultimately LEFT the Nation of Islam, rejecting its racism and anti-Semitism. He was murdered for that.

Thread Carefully Michelle.
I love this hard hitting stuff Michelle, keep up the great work but thread lightly with Mr. Holder-that racial chip on his shoulder is huge, and the fact that he has a little power now makes him slightly dangerous. That dismissal of the suit filed against the "ghetto meows" or the new black panther party and overriding his staff's opinion on D.C voting rights is just Mr. Holder's way of flexing his political muscle.
He want's to have a national discourse on race as long as all us Blacks are allowed to forever
play the victim card and all the white folks, especially liberals, continue to apologise ad nauseum and give us special privileges such as Affirmative Action and the eventual piece-de- resistance "Reparations".
With all the BS going on in this Administration I would'nt be too surprised if that peaceful muslim who shot our soldiers outside the recruiting center in Arkansas gets off.
Hey remember the O.J. Simpson verdict-Yeah.

Georgia

The representatives of Georgia should call this thugs bluff.

The Supreme Court has already ruled these ID requirements constitutional in other states, so I predict he would loose any suit he was to file.

Sort of Unrelated
But I can see no other way to bring it to light because I have seen no news articles about it lately. It is a resolution called H.R. 40. The slavery reparations bill. I find it confusing. There are many Americans of African Decent, and Americans of European decent that had absolutely no part in slavery in the United States of America. So should the Congress decide that reparations should be paid, how do the intend to do this fairly and equally. I mean come on there are surely Americans of African decent who have ancestors who sold their one kind into that slavery living here, so will they get money for just being black when they may have ancestors who were on the wrong side of the slave trade?

Ignore his rulings!
Georgia should grow some ba!!s like Texas and declare their state's soveriegnty to determine their own voting laws. Holder won't be able to enforce his mandates except through the courts. It is the Supreme Court that will decide if Georgia can require citizen proof and not Comrade Holder. He will lose in the end if the states just stand up to him.

In addition, the governor can petition the state's senators and congressmen to pressure the president and his cabinet with loss of support on other issues if Holder continues to get out of line.

reparation?
This is rediculous! If they are hating being here so much, why not go back to the wonderful African country their ancestors came from? Most of the time it was other Africans who sold Africans from rival tribes to the slave traders. Few, ;if any, were from the U.S. or the Colonies of England. No one who is alive now had anything to do with this. So, why doe people who are not guilty of this expected to repay people who were never subjegated to this? Alex Baldwin said, he would be forever greatful to whomever sold his ancestors into slavery because otherwise he would be floating down the river without his head like many of those being murdered by fellow Africans in his country of national origins. Come on people,; you cannot have it both ways.

Payment for what?

Government support
of the Philadelphia poll abuse by the Black Panthers is tyranny. Raw, naked,blatant tyranny. Moreover, it is tyranny in the most sensitive area of representative government, the ability to take peaceful legal action against tyrannical abuse. When peaceful legal action is made impossible, what is left?

Obama has talked about a new government security force with powers and arms equal to the military. Is this an example? What color are the new uniforms?

Eileen
In the first flush of enthusiasm after Obama's election, a poster suggested that critics just relax and "climb on the band wagon" as Obama solved all our problems. My memory is the name was Eileen, or maybe Elaine. Was that you?

US Department of Injustice
What I do not understand is the level of surprise that is expressed both by commentators and respondents. Take a dispassionate look at what has happened. Voter fraud and embezzlement by ACORN, an organisation for which Obama once worked as a lawyer, no Federal Investigation by the Administration - or apparently interest. The replacement senator for Obama's seat apparently involved in a pay to play scam, but seated by the Majority Leader apparently without due scrutiny. Franken apparently deeply involved in voter fraud involving ACORN activists, DoJ interest in this vital senate race NIL (how would it have been if the incumbent Republican had won?). How many Tax cheats have been appointed to the White House and the Cabinet, have they been pursued by the DoJ - NO! How many have come from the totally discredited Chicago/Illinois machine politics?

Look at Foreign Policy. He appointed Hilary as Sec. of State then took away much of her department by appointing Special Envoy's to just about every part of the world - question what is left for her to do? Now he hangs Israel out to dry and virtually invites Iran and Syria to attack and for Palestinian terrorists to intensify their attacks. He also opened the door for Iran to produce a Nuclear weapon increasing the possibility of such a weapon finding it's way into the hands of terrorists and a pre-emptive Nuclear attack on Israel by Iran or vice versa.

I cannot help but feel that since the inauguration America has become less democratic and the world a more dangerous place. It is of course more than possible that I am wrong, and I pray to God that I am.

We need to fix the problem
Voter fraud is endemic to many political centers (Boston, Chicago, Philly are just a couple of examples) where the problem has persisted for decades. So long, in fact, that many "insiders" have come to believe it is their right to exploit the system.

The only way to fix the problem is for all citizens to assert their sovereignty at every opportunity at the local level. Insist that identification be required to register to vote and to cast a vote. Insist that voter fraud be treated as political corruption - which it is.(Perhaps we should require the same for political candidates, what say you Barry?)

I am for paper ballots and tight controls. Maybe we need to require that poll workers be selected in a manner similar to juries. We need to find some way to reengage the public. We are all becoming lambs being led to the slaughter and we have no one to blame but ourselves.

If this trend continues...
... Warren G. Harding and Ulysses S. Gran will end up being called two of the four or five greatest Presidents ever. Historians had ranked them toward (or in Harding's case AT) the bottom of the pile, mainly based on the corruption within their administrations (which, of course, never involved them personally.) Since the mid '90s (Hmmm, I wonder why), Historians have at least revisited Harding's case and declared him "Underrated," noting that Harding, himself, was a competent administrator and leader, but he simply chose poorly for some of his Cabinet positions. Since Historians are going to want to put Mr. Bill and Barack Hus-Change Obama at or near the top of the list of Presidents when all is said and done, They won't be able to - while keeping the appearance of nonpartisanship - without putting scandal-riddled Republicans in the same category.

On the other hand, if the Obama Administration continues on its current path for the next 3 years, 8 months, 17 Days, 5 Hours, 42 Minutes, and 8 Seconds, he could end up surpassing Jimmy Carter and even James Buchannan as the worst ever, given his own bumbling AND the corruption within his administration.

The hits just keep on coming

What is being cashed in on these days?
Fear is BIG business these days and the dems know and are cashing in on it. Get on the phone to your local gov't officials and bombard them with your rejection of their fear tactics and tell them it wont work toward your votes. Hmmmm, if not, could our voting rights be the next to go? Not in my house.

More and more voter fraud is surfacing.

Any "reasonable, rational, thinking, person HAS TO not only question Obozo's ELIGIBILITY TO BE pres., be also IF he was ACTUALLY EVEN ELECTED.



Just Another Day
In about two weeks I will be officially bald! I still have a clump or two of what was once a full head of hair. Thanks Michelle for keeping the focus on these issues as they would go completely unnoticed in the MSM. This type of judicial prejudice is perhaps the biggest threat to our democracy. It is sad and frustrating that in only 5 months I have come to expect the worst in our elected and appointed officials. My worst fears are being realized daily and I am absolutely horrified at the pace of policy making and what it will mean for our futures. Where is the outrage! I have never believed in CHANGE more than I do now. Can we vote these bums out in 18 months…YES WE CAN! So long as the elections are open and free from coercion and thuggery. Wake up CRACKERS! Before it’s too late.

Obama and ACORN against Voter ID

Barack Obama sued the State of Illinois on behalf of ACORN to get the state to comply with the federal “Motor Voter Law” law which Republican Governor Jim Edgar correctly argued would invite voter fraud, partly because government officers registering new voters are “under orders not to ask anyone for identification or proof of citizenship.”

ACORN has been prominent in the fight against photo I.D. for voting and other means of voter identification.

ACORN specifically sought out Obama to represent them in the lawsuit.

Obama an ACORN Trainer

While in Chicago Barack Obama worked with an Alinsky group DCP (Developing Communities Project) as well as 'Project Vote', both groups were created by Saul Alinsky.

Barack Obama also worked for another Alinsky foundation, the IAF (Industrial Areas Foundation) whose project “Citizens USA” helped over 1 million Illegal Aliens obtain citizenship.

ACORN was founded by Wade Rathke, an associate of Bill Ayers in the SDS (Students for a Democratic Society) - a well known American terrorism group.

Barack Obama became a 'Trainer' for ACORN and used the Alinsky book "Rules for Radicals" as his textbook.

"Rules for Radicals" states that 'Community Organizers' are primarily 'Agitators', who must fan the flames of resentment in a community and the latest hostilities to a point of overt expression.

The 'Community Organizers' must search and find any controversial issues and stir up dissatisfaction and discontentment in the community.

Alinsky taught that 'Truth' is relative and constantly changing and values are relative.

Barack Obama taught ACORN students using the Alinsky book 'Rules for Radicals' which had the following dedication:

“Lest we forget at least an over-the-shoulder acknowledgment to the very first radical: from all our legends, mythology, and history (and who is to know where mythology leaves off and history begins — or which is which), the first radical known to man who rebelled against the establishment and did it so effectively that he at least won his own kingdom — Lucifer" Saul Alinsky

Show
Why was there no confrontation of these cowards?
I will say it, Eric Holder let those men go because they are the same race as he is.
The State of Georgia does not have to listen to the Federal government in regards to ID check at polling places. Since when do we let bureaucrats run the country and trample on States rights. It is not unreasonable to ask someone to prove who they are.

Obama Death Wish or Ignorance?

"I understand those who protest that some countries have weapons that others do not.

No single nation should pick and choose which nations hold nuclear weapons.

That is why I strongly reaffirmed America’s commitment to seek a world in which no nations hold nuclear weapons.

And any nation – including Iran – should have the right to access peaceful nuclear power if it complies with its responsibilities under the nuclear Non-Proliferation Treaty.

That commitment is at the core of the Treaty, and it must be kept for all who fully abide by it.

And I am hopeful that all countries in the region can share in this goal."

Mr. BIGbelly,

I wish I could meet with you, For a small amount of rational discourse.


You have a great sense of humor, and a profound sense of what is happening to our world.

I salute you, sir!

This once great Country, now being destroyed, may survive in some fashion or other. But it will be people like you that can rebuild it.

I trust you will persevere, and make it happen.

God, I hope you are not as old as I am!



A POINT OVERLOOKED
Muslims deny or severely restrict the 'rights' of women, who are subject to and used as chattels or property by Muslim men.
Muslim supporters, then, following suit, would have NO REGARD for 'LADY JUSTICE' or do anything on HER behalf.

And NOW that We the People have been TOLD that America "IS NOT a Chritian Nation" but IS the "largest Muslim Country in the World", LADY JUSTICE is merely a 'symbol' to be COVERED UP, no different than the 'symbols' covered up by our government before barry spoke at Georgetown.

"Obama reverses Bush immigration lawyer rule"

http://townhall.com/news/politics-elections/2009/06/03/obam a_reverses_bush_immigration_lawyer_rule


Most of us already knew that we're in serious trouble... but day by day we're realizing just HOW MUCH trouble we're REALLY in.

I can't help but wonder if we'll actually HAVE an "election" in 2010 & 2012... and if we do, will they too be fraught with fraud, or just fixed?



Mixed Race Pres cant ballance haritage
President Obama and MR. Holder do not even care that the ‘new’ black panthers are openly militant and intimidating, I think they encourage it. All to circumvent congress and the people, on constitutional matters such as legal citizens only voting; be they Black, White, Hispanic or whatever race or religion you would think a man of mixed race would seek a balance of all races and govern from the center as Martin Luther King Jr. espoused. As I remember my history he was for fairness for all and changing the system peacefully and legally not by force or intimidation as the lack panthers of the 60’s and now believe. Not through selective enforcement of law but by repeal of law via congress or public support.

In his trip to the Middle East I think the president is letting his true Muslim beliefs show through. I hope this is a sign that he understands the radicals and can deal with them rather than he believes as they do that we as a country should not be top dog any more, since he has done everything right to devalue the dolor so that gold is near 1000 an ounce. And our heavy manufacturing is nearly dead, as whiteness Hummer and other car brads bought by foreign manufactures. With the empty promise that main manufacture will stay in US, then why are so many plants closeting an only 2 on standby for

Just suppose the "skin heads" ......?
Michelle: Just suppose the "skin heads" were there too, with billy clubs. How much you want to bet that in an instant, US marshalls would be there with fire power to shoo those "skin heads" away, leaving the field for the "black panthers" and the "progressive" press would also be there with pictures of the "skin heads", threatening the poor black voters. There would be commentaries 24/7 for months decrying on how "racist" this country is still is. When oh when are we, the citizens of these USA going to wake up to the fact that we're being led to the slaughter house of "socialism" or even "communism" one minute at a time, and we don't do anything about it? We are the stupid ones.

We are clearly in a period

... of rampant lawlessness by government in the United States. Our federal government is now carefully funneling us down the path toward another revolution that they plan will dissolve the U.S. Constitution and make America a lowly third rate country.

This is planned part of the destruction of our nationality as an independent nation.

The presidential part of the Executive Branch is thoroughly corrupt, worse than under the Clinton administration. Only the military component of the Executive Branch is still true to America and the Constitution, and they are conflicted because of the evil leadership from POTUS.

We all know the Legislative Branch is corrupt, and the corruption involves both major parties. It's so bad that the small number of lawful and conscientious Senators and Congressmen are basically impotent to help bring our country back into a state of lawfulness. The good guys are just outnumbered by the bad guys.

And the Judicial Branch - what can you say about them except that they have totally given up their role as watchdogs over the other two branches. Truly pathetic.

For a decade, Russian academic Igor Panarin has been predicting the U.S. will fall apart in 2010.

We should listen, because I believe this has a very real possibility of happening.

If the United States does 'fall apart' it will surely be the death knell of a once great nation, and will make the communists and religious fanatics of the world very happy.

So we, the voters, are just continually being screwed by our own government, and we need to consider seriously dissolving this government in favor of a new government with a constitution including even tighter controls.

Remember the Declaration of Independence?

It's all about freedom.

Exactly. I think we've lost the ballot box. Soon we'll lose the soap box, and all that will be left is the ammo box.

Holder, DOJ, Voter Intimidation
Isn't it obvious that the Obama Administration has a serious conflict of interest here? Isn't time for someone to file a lawsuit so declaring and petitioning the court to appoint a special prosecutor?

New parody
my blog:

Giving to Barack all my Pay (from Otis Redding's song "Sitting on the Dock of the Bay)

I was a poll watcher for the election.
We had to attend 2 meetings with an attorney and learn quite a lot of election law in order to ensure fairness across the board. One of the main themes was, if we had reason to challenge someone's credentials, we had to be very careful not to be intimidating. I believe had I arrived dressed as these 2 fools were and with a stick, the election officials would have had me arrested immediately, yet these clowns were allowed to stand there scaring and harrasing good people excercising their rights.

What occured in this case should have resulted in some jail time for these 2 thugs, it sure would have if 2 white guys pulled a stunt like that, isn't that what the civil rights act was all about Mr holder?

So, the message goes out..."get in their faces" as Il Duce recommended in the campaign, they did and others will and this administration will back them rather than the law.

Holder is a disgrace, his actions during the clinton admin should have precluded any job in gov't, yet he's Il Duce's hatchet man.

Rather than a post racial candidate, this clown and his minions are in the pay back whitey business, you don't listen to a guy like wright for 20 years if you disagree with him.
You don't hang out with avowed communists if you disagree with them and you don't spend a million dollars to keep your records from public scrutiny if you have nothing to hide.

The man is a total fraud and will destroy this republic before he's finished.

Unbelievable
Only word that I can muster .....

I'm surprised
So far not one troll has come onto this site to call Michelle a racist, or call her an anchor baby, or any of the other drivel that passes for intelligent discourse from the lefties. It will happen soon enough, but I'm going to enjoy the fresh air while I can.

We are witnessing the beginning of dictatorial rule in this country. Odumbo and his sock puppet Holder don't give a tinker's damn about the voting rights of people who don't agree with them. If they did then the default judgment against those thugs would not have been dismissed. Many posters on these threads, including myself, have predicted the rise of Odumbo's brownshirt army. It seems like it is already here, only they are wearing black BDUs.

Obama's Administration Is Corrupt
Obama needs thugs, liars, thieves and racists to make the "Change".. What else should we expect from a corrupt administration ?
There are still a lot of questions about Obama that has never been answered and as long as the Democrats keep hiding his and their corruption , we will never know.
The whole Democrat Party is corrupt..with few exceptions and those who put them in power don't have a clue.


Ms. Malkin
Great column. I believe this is just the begining of the coruption. This may get violent before it's over. Keep digging Ms. Malkin we need to know, as does the country, how bad it is. Sun light can cure a lot of ills.

Referring to your Reply at 12:31 am, if we aren't watchful and diligent the headlines in 2016 will also read "OBAMA WINS IN LANDSLIDE". Of course, that could only happen if the Twenty-Second Amendment was repealed and I fully expect the Dumbocrooks to try to do just that. That was Odumbo would be able to emulate his good friend Chavez and become "President for Life", with the able assistance of his private army, of course.

Between "Geek" and Malkin
the lies just keep on coming' Just because Malking writes it doesn't mean it's the truth. Now, repeat that over and over until it sinks into your head. Malkin writes fiction. Malkin writes fiction. She is under no obligation to write the truth, no one is holding her accountable to her stories. Her shtick is inflaming the right-wing and that's what she's doing. It's writing for entertainment purposes, ONLY -- there's absolutely no responsibility involved. The ACORN myth will continue to grow and grow, just like the 'born in Kenya' tale because it brings people to the website where they see the advertising. As for Geek, I ask you again: How could you possibly know what Obama thinks, feels or did in his life? You simply don't know - you have not one iota of first-hand knowledge and you don't know anyone who has ever met Obama, much less know him intimately. And again: If you really want the conservative movement to grow and to be taken seriously, you've got to stop quoting these self-proclaimed "reporters." You have to learn how to distinguish between truth and fiction and react to TRUE things -- not nonsense made up to sell advertising. Or else, you are perceived as a bunch of fool losers who believe anything you tell them. Seek the truth.

Summed up in 4 words
obama hates white people.

Obama the Corrupt President
What would we do without people like Michelle Malkin to tell us the truth about the people that corrupt Obama has appointed. Is it any suprise that they too are corrupt?

terry
Refute the facts of Malkin's piece, jackass, or beat it.

Great article about an overlooked menace
((As to why the 'usual suspects' aren't here yet... They take fridays off. They are 'entitled' to do so. IF they even have a J O B ))

Thank you, Michelle
For once again bringing thr Truth to the American people. 5 stars.

terry
If you have some facts to present, then present them. Quit with the name calling and give us some intelligent conversation. I know that is asking a lot of a lib, but I keep hoping that at least one of you will be able to do it.

Terry
You MUST be a village idiot, then. Tell me where the lies are in her column?

You are the pot calling the kettle black.

The suit was won by default and Holder dismissed it. That is not a lie.
Is Holder Black?
Are the defendants black? I smell favoritism, not blind justice.
Did the defendants violate the voting rights act?
Does this not even seem the least bit slanted to you or is your nose so brown and up the COWboys's keester that you can't see the truth?

Have you even seen the video?

Chicago politics
Obama has brought Chicago corruption to a national level. Don't expect the mainstream media to report any of it.

Who is Madeleine Talbot?

"Madeleine Talbot, who at the time was a leader at Chicago Acorn. Talbot, we learn, was so impressed by Obama’s organizing skills that she invited him to help train her own staff.

And what exactly was Talbot’s work with Acorn?

Talbot turns out to have been a key leader of that attempt by Acorn to storm the Chicago City Council (during a living-wage debate).

...On July 31, 1997, six people were arrested as 200 Acorn protesters tried to storm the Chicago City Council session.

According to the Chicago Daily Herald, Acorn demonstrators pushed over the metal detector and table used to screen visitors, backed police against the doors to the council chamber, and blocked late-arriving aldermen and city staff from entering the session.

Reading the Herald article, you might think Acorn’s demonstrators had simply lost patience after being denied entry to the gallery at a packed meeting.

Yet the full story points in a different direction. This was not an overreaction by frustrated followers who couldn’t get into a meeting (there were plenty of protestors already in the gallery), but almost certainly a deliberate bit of what radicals call “direct action,” orchestrated by Acorn’s Madeleine Talbot.

As Talbot was led away handcuffed, charged with mob action and disorderly conduct, she explicitly justified her actions in storming the meeting.

This was the woman who first drew Obama into his alliance with Acorn, and whose staff Obama helped train."

It looks like you wouldn't recognize a clear headed thinker if you were introduced to one.

Go back to the DailyKos, troll.

USSA - American Thugocracy
Most early indications can only lead to a simple conclusion:
Obama and his Marxist cohorts are indeed taking this country to resemble:

Econmy = Zimbabwe
Culture = Sodom & Gomorrah
Safety = Somalia
Politics = Stalin

Obama Attracts People like this

Those who 'Hate America'.

Those who are against 'Individual Rights'.

Those who are 'Marxists'.

Those who are 'Cowards'.

Those who are 'Racists'.

Those who are against 'Equal Rights'.

Those who would rather 'Steal' than work.

Those who 'Fail' at what they do.

Those who want to 'Weaken' America in time of war.

Those who have 'Empathy' for the criminals and 'NO Sympathy' for the victims.

Those who have 'Great Disdain' for human life.

Those who want 'Economic Disaster' in America.

Why does Barack Obama 'Attract' these types and every 'Marxist' and 'Radical' in America and around the world?

"Do birds of a feather, flock together"?

"Malkin Is Writing Fiction"
It is funny how someone can post that, then proceed to go on for an entire paragraph without citing ONE statement Malkin made that is false.

This is another decision that Obama, Holder and Co. hoped could be done in the dead of night behind closed doors and go away. Thank you, Michelle, for bringing it to light. Malkin may editorialize a bit. But the court records, video, and Holders documented decision are NOT fiction.

No Surprise!
Of course Holder dismised all charges! Malik Shabazz and Jerry Jackson of the New Black Panther Party follow the same idology as the Nation of Islam, ran by one of Obama's mentors, Louis Farrakhan.

Who do you think helped the racists and anti-semite Farrakhan organize his 1995 Million Man March on Washington DC?

If your answer was Barack Hussein Obama and the racists Rev. Wright, then you would be absolutely correct.

This will prove to only be the tip of the iceberg regarding the corruption, racism and out right fraud emanating from this administration!

Obama and ACORN 'Dear Friends'

By 2004 Obama and ACORN are old friends.

Over the years Obama receives campaign support and voter registration help from ACORN.

In exchange, Obama helps obtain funding for ACORN via the Woods Fund, Joyce Foundation, and the Illinois legislature, and he introduces or supports ACORN-friendly legislation (like job-killing minimum wage increases, preventing the construction of new Wal-Mart stores in poor neighborhoods that need the jobs, forcing banks to lend more to unqualified poor people and donate to voter turn-out drives, fighting welfare reform and “workfare” rules, and imposing large “exit fees” for businesses that dare to relocate outside the city of Chicago).

Rules for Liberals
- If it's worth fighting for, it's worth fighting dirty for.

- Don't lie, cheat or steal...unnecessarily.

- There is always one more son of a gun than you counted on.

- An honest answer can get you into a lot of trouble.

- The facts, although interesting, are irrelevant.

- Chicken Little only has to be right once.

- "NO" is only an interim response.

- You can't kill a bad idea.

- If at first you don't succeed, destroy all evidence that you ever tried.

- The truth is a variable.

- A porcupine with his quills down in just another fat rodent.

- You can agree with any concept or notional future option, in principle, but fight implementation every step of the way.

- A promise is not a guarantee.

- If you can't counter the argument, leave the meeting.

Stephen
You will notice that terry hasn't dared to show his libtard face here since then. He must have realized he had stepped in it big time and didn't want to take the spanking he so richly deserved. What a coward.

No dice - not buying it
Malkin is an entertainer paid by TH and other sites, TV stations etc... to produce this stuff. She's under no obligation to be truthful and there's no consequence to her if she lies. And on that note, what makes you think ANYTHING you read here on this site is true? It's blatantly obvious that the writings are geared toward a certain group of people -- there's no balanced commentary. This is a site for people who are angry that a black person was elected president, and for people who want the world to be the way it was in the 1950's. It's for people who don't want to change, grow or challenge themselves intellectually. According the writings on this site, Obama is the equivalent of a terrorist, even though all evidence points to him being a gifted person who overcame obstacles in his life to get where he is today. There's not a shred of truth to him ever being involved with anything resembling terrorism or anti-American sentiment -- it's all a creation of the mouth-foamers on the right. But you can't accept that because he is black and because he has progressive ideas. So instead of listening to his ideas with an open mind, you tear him down. You're a group of raving Obama-haters -- that's all there is to it. Fortunately, the number of people who actually believe these racist yarns about Obama are few, compared tot he population of the world, and they don't really have much impact or importance. Have a good day everyone.

One of our preccious rights
The Obama thugs are about to take away one of our most precious rights. Our right to have free and fair elections. I watched these thugs on TV. I was amazed to say the least. Do you know how many elderly people would be driven away from voting rather than face the fear of these guys standing at the door of the voting stations. If allowed to continue more and more will be affraid to vote. Great job for an Attorney General. This is exactly what Obama wants.

Wow, I'm at Reply # 57 (right now)
and there's only one moron posting so far. TERRy, thanks for bringing your darkness out. It makes the light of Michelle's writing and the subsequent postings much brighter. I'm sure that was your intent!

terry
I notice that your post consisted totally of denials, not one fact was presetned to refute anything Michelle said. Until you do that then your posts are nothing more than the insane blatherings of a libidiot who has no facts to present. What you say is unimportant, and I do not heed your words.

That's right, Terry from NJ,
I am an Obama hater, and you are a George Bush hater. Live with, you Democratic Facsist.

TD2008
You must have better eyes than I have, since I saw no mention anywhere in that article that he is a Republican or a conservative. It's a bit early in the day to be drinking to the point you are seeing things, isn't it?

Terry
Let's see.... your way of refuting Malkin is to write the longest paragraph ever written which also is absent a single fact? Malkin is factually accurate and her conclusions are correct. The truth is on her side, your rant notwithstanding.

It seems that your biggest concern is the "inflaming of the right wing". It must be troubling to you that there are actually people who have revulsion at the corrupt and unjust practices Mr. Obama's DOJ which is entrusted with ensuring justice.

The anger of freedom loving people will manifest itself in the next election regardless of your support of billy-club thugs.


Take Back This Country
I have an idea.

Since the leaders and people in key gov't and legal positions in the US are so anit-American, and might I add racist, 'We the people' need to take this country country back, out of control of these racist, socialists that have creeped into our government.

'We the people' should be ready to act at the next election, not just stand by while a handful of black racist display intimidataion. 'We the people' need to show them why America is the greatest nation in the history of Earth.

'We the people', which includes everyone from every race in the US who believes in America and for which it stands, should have counter groups ready to confront the racist intimidators. We need to show them that 'We the people' aren't going to put up with street punks like Samir Shabazz and Jerry Jackson or the street agitating Muslim, Hussein Obama.

Stop cowering America. Stop talking about all the wrongful things being bestowed upon our land.

Stand up, be heard, and fight for America and for what it stands for!

My brother was beat to death by street scum, while neighbors stood on their porches and watched, afraid they might get hurt if they intervened.

Are you like them? Are you afraid? Have you turned into a cowardly American?

Who do you think will stand up for you, if you yourself won't stand up for yourself?



Obama taught 'Signs and Wonders'

While Barack Obama taught ACORN on 'Rules for Radicals', he also taught them how to perform 'Signs and Wonders'.

How to 'Register' the dead.

How to turn 'Words into Whine'.

How to 'Create' more votes than there were Voters in their community.

Barack Obama blessed the 'ACORN Cheaters' and said they would 'Inherit' the Kingdom of Government.

Barack Obama 'Taught' ACORN how to 'Feed the Multitudes' with other peoples money.

Barack Obama taught his ACORN followers that in his 'Kingdom', there were many mansions that could be bought with nothing down and without any income and he would see to it that others would pay their mortgage.

All of Barack Obama's ACORN followers looked at what Barack Obama taught and declared that it was good.

terry
Hey, Terry, you're a bigot!

High five guys! Made my point without once addressing a single argument!

Feels great to be falsely accused without a shred of proof, and have what you think consequently denigrated, doesn't it?


Why do we have three branches of gov.
Why do we have a judicial branch if the Obama executive branch can with a wave of their hand undo the rulings of two federal courts with regards to the voter identifications laws in Georgia? This administration has no respect for our constitution and the rule of law. If there was a need to appeal the ruling of the federal courts should that not have been an issue to take before the supreme court? Instead Obama's henchmen assert their authority. If I was the governor or attorney general of Georgia I would insist that law be enforced. The federal DOJ is overstepping their jurisdiction.

Fact-checking for ya, Terry
Terry, you posted a bunch of generalizations about Obama-bashing on this site, but still noting specific to your claim that Malkin's article is fiction. The ACTUAL court decision is here...Please try to refute it:

http://mainjustice.com/2009/05/29/doj-drops-voter-intimidat ion-case-against-black-panthers/

In an interesting twist, although the voter intimidation charges were dropped against the billy club guy (Samir Shabazz), the court was "successful in obtaining an injunction that prohibits the defendant who brandished a weapon outside a Philadelphia polling place from doing so again."

Wow. A slap on the wrist. Woo-hooo!!

TD2008 KS Jun 5, 2009 - 9:25 AM EST

'Right-wing Extremist' is an oxymoron.

One good thing, though
If Odumbo's sock puppet Holder is going to drop charges against those who carry weapons at polling places then I can carry my concealed handgun next time I go vote. Let one of those thugs try to intimidate me, PLEASE let them try.

Of course, it's probably only "their" people who will get the benefit of dropped charges. Everyone else can go to prison.

Terry...
...seek the truth?!? You don't want truth, you want power.

And speaking of power, the only way I can see for us to get out of this mess is to THREATEN TO UNSEAT EVERY INCUMBENT in the House of Representatives who will not pursue a "where's the birth certificate" line of questioning of Mr. Obama. The test is clear. Either they will or will not sign on to a request for proof (i.e. the long form birth certificate). If they agree and pursue it, they might earn our vote; if they don't, they will be defeated.

And to koolaid drinkers like Terry, we have one question: why is Mr. Obama spending a small fortune trying to prevent us from seeing the document? You know the answer, don't you.

Oh, and another thing, Mr. Terry the truthseeker, please enlighten us as to which of Ms. Malkin's statements are untrue.

Terry the drone
"Malkin is an entertainer paid by TH and other sites, TV stations etc... to produce this stuff. She's under no obligation to be truthful and there's no consequence to her if she lies."

You have yet to point out a single "lie" in this or any other Malkin column. Certainly if all she does is spew an endless stream of "lies," you should at least be able to provide ONE example, no?

"There's not a shred of truth to him ever being involved with anything resembling terrorism or anti-American sentiment..."

Except for every time he opens his mouth on foreign soil.

"So instead of listening to his ideas with an open mind, you tear him down."

Actually, I've listened closely to his ideas. But they are not his ideas at all. They are the same tired, old ideas that have been tried numerous times throughout history with uniformly disastrous results. But I'm sure they'll work this time.


Ignore the twits like Terry
and start thinking about how we, as conservatives, can make our voices heard. My husband and I watch Glenn Beck in the afternoon (5PM EST). Right now he is touring the U.S. and getting some huge audiences and great feedback.

I can only hope that more charismatic people like him, begin to do the same. Remember, please, that numbers count and that is why the thugs were at the voting both.

Next election, I am driving anyone who needs a lift to the voting booth and walking them through the door.

Shabazz is shaking in his boots!
Oh! Oooooo!! Shabazz was slapped on the hand and told not to do it again. Oooo! He was a bad boy.

Get real Stephen from MI, if he was a law abiding citizen he wouldn't have done what he did, and he wouldn't be a member of the black, racist, Panther group.


We had better get serious
Over the last two centuries plus, American men and women have fought and died to protect the greatest nation ever to grace the earth. They have made great sacrifices for their children and grandchildren...us. Now, we, the beneficiaries of those sacrifices, sit idly on our hands and watch as a 3rd world thug, Barack Hussein Obama, dismantles and destroys everything our fathers fought to establish. His every act is corrupt. His appointees are corrupt. He seizes whole industries and "fires" private industry CEOs. He GIVES the majority of GM stock to the UAW union...by what authority??? His organization, ACORN, has corrupted the election process...do you believe there will EVER be another fair election? His militant black Attorney General dismisses charges against the Black Panthers who intimidated voters in Philadelphia. Obama travels the world, trashing this country to willing ears overseas. He abandons Israel, in favor of his Muslim brothers. He has US troops training "Palestinians" in Jordan to attack Israel right now. Everything Obama does is corrupt, unconstitutional, and anti-American.
When will we stop him? When? After it is too late? It is time to call upon the US military to remove this corrupt dictator and restore the Republic. If the military will not do it, and forget the flaccid Republicans, saving our nation falls to us. By 2010, it will be too late.

hey terry
Can't bear to watch the video I posted huh?

Its PLAIN to see, unless you are a partisan lemming such as yourself.

Go back to licking Obama's boots, it appears to be what you're best at.

To Terry from NJ
Since race is obviously so much on your mind,and keeping that "angry edge of yours" is so important a part of your day, I'm sure if you actually VIEW THE VIDEO and use your imagination to visualize two "white crackers" in front of the polling place with baseball-bats and confederate flags on their T-shirts (insteda of new Black Panthers) you might have a "reverse racial" perspective of why these New Black Panthers were so offensive. Would they have been equally less offensive to you if they were the the new KKK?

When it come to the black panthers and the KKK the differences in their over-all racial intoleranc are only by nuance and activities.

Publius4254
...Of course, it's probably only "their" people who will get the benefit of dropped charges. Everyone else can go to prison.



Don't worry, we'll come and get you.


And another thing, do you think that Samir Shabazz and Malik Shabazz's real names are Tyrone? Maybe Tyquawn?

Just a thought I had.







2010 election.
If the facist win that election our country as we know it will be lost for decades.

When will Obama worshippers admit...
...that he's been a MONUMENTAL failure?

According to Barack Obama himself, were we to *not* pass his stimulus bill, and simply continue on the Bush course, the unemployment rate right now would have risen to 8.4%. He states a little more than a week following the passage of his stimulus bill that because the bill was passed, the average unemployment rate for the year would be about 8.1%, and that by the end of the year it would be below 8%. Well, the unemployment rate right now is 9.4% and continuing to SKYROCKET out of control. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer stated openly that if Obama continues on his current course and raises taxes on businesses, that he would send thousands of more jobs overseas. We've already lost 3 million jobs under Obama. Verdict: EPIC FAIL!

Since Obama has taken office, he's betrayed our allies in eastern Europe by conspiring with the Russians to reignite the Cold War, he's snubbed our allies in Israel by stating that he'll take Iran's side if Israel attempts to thwart any Iranian nuclear strike -- going so far as to say that Iran has the RIGHT to a nuclear arsenal, the North Koreans, knowing that Obama would do NOTHING, has launched a missile at Japan and detonated a nuclear warhead, he has done NOTHING as the Chinese have been attacking our navy vessals, allowed Somali pirates to take an American captian hostage for about a week, became the first US president to bow to a foreign monarch, and has kissed up to enemies of the United States who want us dead.

Apology to terry
I was mistaken.

obama hates white people AND Jews.

There. Better?

Voting Rights
I cordially invite Mr. Shabazz to come to Southeast Alabama and attempt to prevent anyone from voting.

Even some LIBERALS begin to see...
http://www.sj-r.com/opinions/x124603932/Ted-Rall-It-s-incre asingly-evident-that-Obama-should-resign

A LIBERAL, calling for Obama to resign and pointing out that Obama wants the power to preemptively detain dissidents!

Obama will never resign. He must be removed, by whatever means necessary.

Obama = EPIC FAIL pt 2
Obama can't even seem to nominate anyone to his administration that isn't a criminal or a lobbyist. Here's a short list of highlights:

Tim Geithner - Secretary of the Treasury: Tax cheat.
Tom Daschle - Secretary of Health and Human Services: Tax cheat and lobbyist.
Bill Richardson - Commerce Secretary: Accepted bribes.
Nancy Killefer - "Chief Performance Officer": Tax cheat.
Hilda Solice - Secretary of Labor: Tax cheat and lobbyist.
William Lynn - Deputy Secretary of Defense: Lobbyist.
Hillary Clinton - Secretary of State: Whitewater. Nuff said.
Arne Duncan - Secretary of Education: Presided over the Chicago area schools, which is now under investigation for systematic child abuse while he was there.
Gary Locke - Commerce Secretary: Pay-for-play political corruption, political favors for family member, accepted bribes from Chinagate convictee John Huang.
Adolfo Carrion - "Urban Czar": Accepted bribes.
Sonya Sotomayor - Supreme Court justice: Member of the openly and overtly racist La Raza.
