OMG. If that isn’t evidence of intimidation, then what is? Can we white folks now bring billy clubs too?

What we ought to do is stage a fake voter intimidation that looks exactly the same and see what they do.

[Cheerio]

If this Admin wants a civil war they are gonna have their wish come true sooner than they may desire.

“...in fact, the Bush administration decided not to pursue criminal charges, with Assistant Attorney General Thomas Perez testifying that the Bush Justice Department “determined that the facts did not constitute a prosecutable violation of the criminal statutes”;...”

So gear up next election in combat boots, military like uniforms, carry your nightstick, and stand in front of the entrance to the voting precinct. Tell the voters that whites are gonna win this election, and we are back in control now. Since it has been determined to do so does not violate any criminal statutes. The Bush JD says so.

“A recent Media Matters investigation has debunked charges”

ROFLOL!!!

******

From 1995 until 1998, Perez served as Special Counsel to Senator Edward Kennedy, and was Senator Kennedy’s principal adviser on civil rights, criminal justice and constitutional issues.

For the final two years of the Clinton administration, Perez served as the Director of the Office for Civil Rights at the United States Department of Health and Human Services.

Perez also served on the board of Casa de Maryland, a group that advocates for the Latino community in Maryland.

The Case Against Abigail Thernstrom: Andrew McCarthy exposes and destroys Abigail's new revisionist story.

....you mean other than being found guilty in court, there is no evidence of wrongdoing?

[DBrow]

“the Bush Justice Department “determined that the facts did not constitute a prosecutable violation of the criminal statutes”;”

Whew! It’s Bush’s Fault! Knewit.

To dismiss, ignore, neglect the obvious component of voter intimidation is to invite more of it.

[RaceBannon]

suddenly, the media finds this story....

[popdonnelly]

With Republicans like these, who needs Democrats?

[PilotDave]

Amazing to me that everytime the left trots out a “repub” that supports the left, I’ve never even heard of them...

[TheThinker]

I see the Ministry of Truth is working overtime.

[Art in Idaho]

Charges by Right Wingers? . . how about Charges by Truth Seekers instead?

[chilltherats]

Geez. Mary Frances Berry just about committed mayhem and had to be physically removed from office just to seat this woman. If anybody has been a victim of civil rights abuse, it’s she. What a fool she turned out to be.

[pillut48]

Sounds like it's past hip-wading time, and into the old timey diving suits to maneuver through this muck! Why believe the evidence of an actual video or witnesses, what kind of judge would ever allow that sort of thing in their courtroom?!?! /sarc

[Arthur Wildfire! March]

Trying to blame Bush for a post-Bush decision. Bush was irrelevant after BO was sworn in.

[rlmorel]

I don’t care if you are a Republican, Democrat, appointed by a Republican or a Democrat...

The Civil Rights Commission is leftist by its very nature, in my opinion.

Instead of enforcing laws in place to ensure people are treated fairly, this “commission” deals on the basis of race, ethnicity and gender by its very nature, and has slanted outcomes as a result.

Discrimination is discrimintation no matter how it is presented.

Her Bio reads like a real elitist....

[SaraJohnson]

Abigal is getting senile. She needs to retire with Pat Robinson. Otherwise, they should be truthful and admit she is a racist liberal.
