Yeah, I’m sure Holder will investigate this just as aggressively as he did the New Black Panther case.

If this DOJ wouldn’t really investigate the documented cases of Black Panthers intimidating voters in 2008 - why should we expect the same (actually even MORE Obama-bot run) DOJ to conduct a meaningful investigation of these threats in WI?

Answer: We shouldn’t expect anything.

Remember - the DOJ’s boss... is the same “new civility” preacher who SENT these GOONS to WI to create havoc in the first place. Obama fully endorses the tactics at play.

The Department of Justice is investigating threats....

Hope they have adequate personal security, with the DOJ investigating and since they are conservative Republicans and white, they are on their own.

The DOJ, really? The Department of Juveniles, Jerks, Jackasses, what ever but the J sure can't stand for justice in this administration.

Forgive me, but I don’t want Obama’s Jus’ Dis’ Department anywhere near this thing. I want it solved and prosecuted to the fullest extent, not brushed under a rug.

Headline should be:

Feds Trump Local Law Enforcement to Control Investigation.

If union thugs orchestrated the threats and broke the law = RICO.

Of course, instead of having local cops charge conspiracy they want the InJustice Department to investigate it = sweep it under the rug.

Investigation is just a word used to buy time until people forget.

OK MSM that was so outraged at Palin, time for you to speak up or prove you are a politically biased lap dog of the liberal elite.

I will not hold my breath for it, but one can hope.

Although the death threats are probably bogus and just a way for Wisconsin public service union members venting their rage that the gravy train is coming to a stop, they have to be taken seriously. With the Obama Justice Department ‘on the case’, its guaranteed that they won’t be. These Wisconsin state senators need extra protection from the union thugs as well as our prayers. If any harm comes to any Wisconsin Republican politician based on this kind of threat, it will be on the heads of the Obama administration, the greedy, arrogant unions and the Democrat politicians screaming about the horror of ending collective bargaining for unionized state employees whose benefits and pensions have helped push Wisconsin toward bankruptcy. All the while Wisconsin state union employees scream for their ‘rights’ (read: taxpayer-funded benefits/pensions) and the media carefully ignores the glaring gap between the lush salaries, benefits and pensions of WI state employees and the citizens who’s taxes pay for the state employees benefits & pensions.

In the wake of these death threats, any legislator who receives such a threat should immediately hire a private body guard and start wearing bullet proof vests.
