In the words of Forrest Gump:
“I’m sorry I got in a fight in the middle of your black panther party.”
:-D
THIS justice dept? FACTS and LAW mean ZERO to them!
TRANSCRIPT
--"Voters in this small city decided overwhelmingly last year to do away with the party affiliation of candidates in local elections," It's two-thirds black, one-third white, they voted 65% to do away with party affiliation to local elections. In other words, they have no Democrats or Republican identification on the ballot.
--Just the candidates' names. That's not good enough for the Obama administration. The Obama administration and the attorney general, Eric Holder, have "recently overruled the electorate" in Kinston, North Carolina, "and decided that equal rights for black voters cannot be achieved without the Democratic Party." They are worried that whites will not vote for blacks unless it is said that they are Democrats in this county. This is what this all can get boiled down to. "The Justice Department's ruling, which affects races for City Council and mayor, went so far as to say partisan elections are needed so that black voters can elect their 'candidates of choice' -- identified by the department as those who are Democrats..."
--They are in effect saying, "No, no, no! You guys down there you cannot do this. Even though you voted 65% to get rid of party affiliation in local elections, you can't do it. You're going to have to identify who the Democrats are otherwise the black people won't know who to vote for."
--That's what the Obama Justice Department is saying. And it was Eric Holder said, wait a minute. We need to have a conversation about race. We're still "cowards about race" in this country. So you have here a 65% African-American district, a little town, Kinston, North Carolina, which voted overwhelmingly in favor of Obama, this same electorate passed a nonpartisanship provision by a two to one margin, yet the civil rights division of the Holder Justice Department decided it knew better and using an unconstitutional law "dictated its terms," like our moralizing attorney general likes to say.
-- In things racial, we have always been and continue to be in too many ways essentially a nation of cowards. If that's true, then Eric Holder's own civil rights division is cowardice central. It shouldn't have taken much courage to let Kinston be Kinston.

Megan Kelly interview Part 2 coming up!
I live in the Philly suburbs—when this happened on Election Day, the local news caught up with Philly’s (black) mayor, Michael “Liver Lips” Nutter-he was out and about somewhere.
The news crew asked him, on the air, what he thought of the reports about this.
He gave one of those disgusted contempt-filled smirk/scowl faces that blacks seem to like to make-and said:
“This is America-those men (he meant the Panthers) can stand wherever they want!”
Oh and since this happened in Philly, you’d figure the story would be on the news now in light of the new developments.
Nope-nada-zilch.
No “honkies” allowed I take it?
Adams should run for office! He is a true patriot.
Yes he is a patriot! I hope he doesn’t get killed standing up to these goons.
Don’t give me that bullshit. You and I are America too, and we don’t deserve this crap.
