The Justice Department's Civil Rights Division has lurched from multiple controversies into an outright embarrassment. In an order issued Sept. 16, U.S. District Judge John D. Bates of the District of Columbia gave Attorney General Eric H. Holder Jr.'s team the legal equivalent of a 2-by-4 across the head. The department's handling of a voting rights case from Shelby County, Ala., has been so slipshod as to invite questions of its legal competence across the board.
Shelby County is challenging the constitutionality of the Voting Rights Act's Section 5, an increasingly problematic requirement that election jurisdictions in several states, mostly Southern, secure "pre-clearance" from Justice for any change in voting practices. This includes minor details such as moving a polling place from a school gym to its cafeteria. The county writes, "in the last 10 years, [it] has sought pre-clearance numerous times, expended significant taxpayer dollars, time and energy to meet its obligations under Section 5 of the VRA, and has had at least one election delayed in order to ensure compliance."

Criminal flunky Holder belongs in prison, and he will be indicted soon.
The turkey will be in trouble when the Dems lose control of the House, wouldn’t be surprised to see him resign to spend more time with the family.
I pray you are right, and there are many more who warrant it. For some of them Treason is a very serious charge.
Holder has crossed the line so many times.
He need to be brought to justice.
Sounds like attorneys were selected for their ideology rather than objective competence.
I believe we should contact our congressmen and call for his firing or resignation over the Justice Department’s actions regarding the military’s vote.
Not much doubt about it, they more than likely made it plain they'd be lapdogs of Obama/Holder.
BUMP! I love it. :)
So should Janet Reno, but it never happens to democrats...
All Voters are equal, but some Voters are more equal than others.
It has to be done after BO is out of office so the clown can’t give him a pardon.
The Voting Right’s Act is patently unconstitutional because it does not apply equally to all states.
That’s better yet! :-)
Totally agree...If it had applied to all states equally it would have been shot down years ago.
