A former Justice Department attorney who resigned last month in protest of the Obama administration's handling of a voter intimidation case involving the New Black Panther Party accused a top Justice official of lying under oath about the circumstances surrounding the decision to drop the case.
J. Christian Adams, now an attorney in Virginia and a blogger for Pajamas Media, told Fox News in an exclusive interview that aired Wednesday that Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perez provided false testimony in May to the United States Commission on Civil Rights, which is investigating the department's decision to drop charges against three members of the radical group in a case that the government won.
Perez told the commission that the facts and the law didn't support the case against the group.
"I know about the truth…and I know what the truth is and I know to say the facts and law don't support the Black Panther case is not true," Adams said, adding that Perez ignored his warnings not to provide false testimony.
"We made it very clear that continuing to say that the facts and the law don't support this case would not be consistent with the truth," he said.

They look shootable to me.
Good post... all of it.
Logically, what can we do? When we don’t have the state on our side.....but quite the contrary. This administration targets anyone that doesn’t lean left (we conservatives) as a bigger enemy than radical extremist terrorists. How do you ‘do something’ when you’re up against that?
Yeah...right! (no longer holding my breath for that day)
Now we have a post-justice president.
The lamestream media isn’t going to touch it, and that’s where too many people still get their info.
” Funny that these SOBs don’t try to do this in states where people are armed or can be armed shortly. “
Even SEIU didn’t show up at the Phoenix and Tucson Tea Party rallies. We were WAITING for them, and they KNEW it ;-)
Here's the big problem that I see in getting to the actual first-hand facts of the systemic corruption:
1) The shear massive scale and scope of the operations are almost impossible to comprehend, even for the enlightened.
2) Rats control the congress and executive branches.
3) Rats are criminals and don't play by the rules. They're experts at avoiding prosecution and have been working for decades, overtly and covertly/underground, to establish the perfect economic and political environment to spring their traps (like Obozocare where they gain unfettered access to all of your sensitive financial and health-related info, and more so, have the power of better health, or life and death over critically ill people).
4) Republicans are blocked from formal investigative proceedings, plus they don't have the backbone to rock the boat.
5) The government insiders that can tell us the real story currently have an exceptional thing going. Career government employees are now making double the compensation of private sector employees and it's next to impossible to be terminated. With real unemployment at +17%, it's not a great time for these tenured gov bureaucrats - who don't have to stress about market competition, productivity, or profits, they get raises every year, and have outlandish benefits/pensions - to take a principled stand to save our Republic. If you listen to this DOJ lawyer, he admitted that he had a great gig and it wasn't until the word came down that whites have no civil rights under Holder, and the appointees were willing to muzzle staff and purger themselves to pursue political gains - that he finally had enough.
Rome found this out - eventually, when enough people do not have a stake in paying for lawful national services, it becomes a death spiral downward if those people are given the chance to vote for unscrupulous politicians who want power over people. With parasites voting in ever greater numbers to use the government to take what is not theirs from those who "have", so they don't have to think, sweat, or risk anything they have based on their own merit - the parasites in both private and public sectors overwhelm the producers and the system collapses.
This is where we stand.
Well said, those are the cold hard facts and we have to start turning this around by destroying them at the ballot box in November.
Very Well Said.
Pinging a few who might like your assessment.
Agreed, and you probably know Nancy PeeLowSea sent a fund raising letter to the faithful parasites which begged for donations to fight key battles to hold the House, because if lost, the Pubs would start a landslide of investigations against Rats.
Gee, why on earth would she say that...???!!! Have they something to hide? Are they blocking any inquiries now, in this new age of pure transparency and unassailable ethics? /sarc
