FNC Exclusive: Former DOJ Attorney Discusses New Black Panther Party Voter Intimidation Case
Fox News ^ | 30 June 2010 | MEGYN KELLY

Posted on 06/30/2010 12:01:37 PM PDT by SkyPilot

J. CHRISTIAN ADAMS, FORMER JUSTIC DEPARTMENT LAWYER: Well, people were standing in front of the polls with weapons in Philadelphia on the day that President Obama was elected in 2008. The Justice Department brought a case in January under the voter intimidation statutes against the New Black Panther Party, the individuals who organized the deployment and the folks with the weapons in Philadelphia at the polls.

MEGYN KELLY, "AMERICA LIVE" HOST: Ok, and so the guy we see banging the baton, he was one defendant. The guy next to him who was said to have been saying intimidating things, he was a defendant. The New Black Panther Party was a defendant and the head of it was a defendant.

ADAMS: That’s right, all four.

KELLY: Ok, and what was basically the heart of the case against them.

ADAMS: Yeah, this 1965 Voting Rights Act protects voters from voter intimidation. You’re supposed to be able to go vote without somebody with a weapon shouting racial slurs at you like these folks were doing in Philadelphia.

KELLY: What were they saying?

ADAMS: Well, they said, “You’re about to be ruled by the black man, Cracker”. They called people “white devils”. They menaced, they tapped their baton. They tried to stop people from entering the polls.

KELLY: Is there any question in your mind that that violates the law.

ADAMS: No, nor anybody that worked on the case. It’s the easiest case I ever had at the Justice Department. It doesn’t get any easier than this. If this doesn’t constitute voter intimidation, nothing will.

KELLY: And you had, you had not just that video tape, which we’ve all now seen, but you had witness testimony from some credible witnesses who were there.

To me there isn’t a dime’s worth of difference between the Black Panthers and someone who sat in Jeremiah Wright’s church for 20 years.

These criminals are domestic terrorists - PERIOD!

And yet, Janet "Lesbian Skunk Hair" Napolitano thinks the only domestic terrorists are white-male-Christian-military veterans.

How old are these pictures? In one , it looks like ‘ 98 is on the pic.

The timestamp is wrong. They obviously were too stupid to program their digital camera.

The "Jenna 6" manufactured black victim case (which was really a witch hunt against whites) occurred in 2006.

First of all, we must internalize the "flatulation" of the matter by transmitting the effervescence of the "Indianisian" proximity in order to further segregate the crux of my venereal infection. Now, if I may retain my liquids here for one moment. I'd like to continue the "redundance" of my quote, unquote "intestinal tract", you see because to preclude on the issue of world domination would only circumvent - excuse me, circumcise the revelation that reflects the "Afro-disiatic" symptoms which now perpetrates the jheri curis activation. Allow me to expose my colon once again. The ramification inflicted on the incision placed within the Fallopian cavities serves to be holistic taken from the Latin word "jalapeno".

I remember old Bobby Rush (still out there and selling the hate) and the Black Panther Party in Chicago in the 60s.

Roland Burris and Rep. Bobby Rush (speaking)
at a Chicago news conference announcing
Gov. Rod Blagojevich's appointment of
Burris to the U.S. Senate Dec. 30, 2008.
CBS
________________________________________________________

From David Horowitz's FrontPageMag.com/DiscoverTheNetworks.org:
PROFILE: BOBBY RUSH:

* Democratic Member of Congress

* Member of the radical Progressive Caucus

* In 1968, went AWOL from the U.S. Army

* Co-founder of the Illinois branch of the Black Panther Party

* In 1969, served six months in jail for an illegal weapons conviction

* Advocates reparations for African Americans

"Bobby Rush has described his involvement with the Black Panthers as part of his maturation process, as a youthful indiscretion that he abandoned immediately after Hampton's death. He described his role mostly as running the Black Panther Party's Free Breakfast for Children program.

But Bobby Rush served six months in jail for a 1969 illegal weapons conviction and, even after his release, in 1971 his comrades were still describing him as the 'Deputy Minister of Defense' for the Black Panther Party in Illinois. In 1992 the socialist magazine In These Times praised fledgling congressional candidate Rush, writing that he 'has continued to support progressive policies and has never disavowed his Panther past...."

Thanx for the picture of three of “The Chicago Stooges.” There's plenty more where that came from.

Despicable, but what do you expect from those goons and the citizens of Chicago who vote straight Democratic Party ticket each and every time. You reap what you sow.

You are right there is no difference. But if the spineless Republicans are not reminding all Americans of the facts obama will win again. This video should be running non stop on TV ads in PA, OH, MI, etc. in the run up to the midterm elections. Yet the Repubs continue to bring snowballs to a gun fight and are afraid to fight back lest they be called racist.

I suppose the Black Panthers at least can say for themselves that they got off their duffs and did something after the sermon, however misguided or twisted their purpose. Obama was about the most do-nothing Senator in history, and has been virtually no more than a rubber stamp to the left side of the Democrats as a president.

Random thoughts. They look like they are auditioning for an action movie and doing a really bad job of it. Are they?
2:Why does the furniture look like it came from a funeral parlour?
3: Is he wearing a maternity shirt with patches sewn on it?
4: Why does his mousepad say AIDS? I know they have that whole conspiracy thing going but-
Inquiring minds need to know. Maybe thats the ticket, just get the Enquirer to investigate everything that stinks about this administration. They seem to be the only journalists left with any nerve.

One of the men in the video - Jerry Jackson - is running for election in the Democratic Executive Committee in Philly.

Punk ass bitches. They should have been chased off in a hail of paint balls. The video would have been hilarious.

I think those pictures are more recent. Because he has a poster saying “Free the Jena 6” and that was just a couple of years ago.

well they know they can away with this crap like the unions,
obama wrote in his book he sought blacks radicals out as not to be a sell out.

maybe one day a media outlet could ask him what he meant by being s ell out or what he meant by typical white people or greedy white folk or his wife and her quotes which we all know
