DOJ Issues Gag Order In Black Panther Probe

"The order came from Loretta King, who at the time was President Obama’s acting assistant Attorney General for the civil rights division. No explanation was offered for the sudden dismissal and outrage ensued among federal prosecutors handling the case." ....

"A member of the Civil Rights Commission challenged the gag order, pointing out that his panel is duly authorized by statute to review and report on enforcement activities of the Justice Department and similar government agencies. The commission’s job, he reminds, is to serve as a watchdog of federal and state enforcement agencies. That is why Congress has instructed all agencies to comply fully with the commission’s request, he said. "

"The Obama Administration clearly doesn’t want the details of this heated case and apparent coverup to be made public. Otherwise, it would allow federal prosecutors to cooperate fully with the Civil Rights Commission’s investigation. Yet another promise of unprecedented transparency has been broken by the commander-in-chief."

There is nothing quite like blacks with law degrees covering for their black racist homies in the Black Panther Party.

This is a disgusting outrage and perversion of justice.

"I was suggesting a biker militia some months back."

Imagine if a couple of Hell's Angels with baseball bats showed up next to those Black Pathers.

As much of a Patriot as I am, I do not fit well within Biker Clubs or “Biker Militias.” I do ride motorcycles, but I am partial to crotch rockets. Most Biker groups are composed of Harley Riders and they don’t look upon those of us that ride the bullet bikes as worthy of entrance into their circle.

A few years ago I wore my hair long and had a beard. I would go to bike rallies and would hit it right off with the Bikers that looked as I did. From my appearance they thought I rode a Harley. When I told them I rode a Yamaha R1 they would alway change their demeanor toward me.

Am I the only person noticing the liberal application of ‘gag orders’ and media reporting black-outs on issues occurring during this current regime?

>>It’s not a matter of votes. Talking about it, getting the story out, doesn’t require any votes.

Bingo! The GOP just doesn’t “get” marketing and PR.

To the contrary - they're too worried about marketing and not worried enough about reality. They've spent the last 8 years creating an image of "compassionate conservatism" rather than sticking to principals. People see right through the marketing scam, especially after they've been fooled by it once or twice.

Principles.

And “compassionate conservatism” is and was a disaster of a policy.

Why wasn’t there any action taken against those apes? I don’t think they would try that where I vote. ;0)

Way ahead of them—I’ve been gagging since last Nov. when it happened.

I live in the Philly ‘burbs—when this happened last Election Day—the TV news media interviewed Philly Mayor Michael “Liver Lips” Nutter, an Obamaesque individual who was supposed to be the new Philly messiah and instead is worthless.

Anyway, the mayor said, when asked about the Black Panthers at the polling place (after first making one of those “black people faces” —you know, rolling his eyes and moving his mouth into a disparging smirk—the male equivalent of the “Oh no you di’int” chicken head neck swivel)

“This is America, those men can stand wherever they want!”
