"I'm waiting for someone to say this is just another brilliant political move. "

Darn straight it is !

It will expose all the crap the DNC pulled during 2000 while at the same time showing the Bush admin is for civil rights etc. taking the issue away from the dems.

It's a win - win !

I sure hope you're right but I don't trust the Justice Dept. But maybe, like "Bush knew", it will blow up in their faces.

If the press reports were correct 50% of the black republican votes were thrown out by Dem voting boards. The spanish speaking cubans weren't helped in Miami and even got strong armed in to voting for Gore. If anyone doesn't think this is good you need to think it through and maybe you'll see it as a smart move !

TWO OTHER LAWSUITS also will be filed, in Missouri and Tennessee, by the department’s civil rights division, Assistant Attorney General Ralph Boyd told the Senate Judiciary Committee. The lawsuits will allege disparate treatment of minority voters, improper purging of voter rolls, “motor voter” registration violations and failure to provide access to disabled voters, Boyd said. Other charges, he said, include failing to allow voters with limited proficiency in English to have assistance at the polls and failing to provide bilingual assistance.

The above is what the suit alleges happened.This is what will be tried in court.
Where do you see anything that deals with things that the democrats did?

I was kind of thinking this was nuts, but then I thought about the possibilities from a strategic standpoint. Starting here gives the impression that there is nothing "political" about it. However, it could easily lead to exposing some major and REAL corruption. We all know where the true corruption comes from. If you wanted to go after it while not galvanizing the base on the other side, you start right where Bush is starting to catch them off guard. Even if the Dems know that this is what is going down, what could they do about it? Complain that charges are being brought? If they do, while Bush is investigating, the truly clueless sheep that follow the Libs will end up confused and begin believing that those opposing Bush were the ones that "disenfranchised" them - whether that ever really occurred or not. Could my thoughts above be what is really planned, or is this commission completely unrelated to Bush - i.e. typical leftist bureaucrats?

I am in total agreement with you. It will take these idiotic allegations from the realm of urban legend into a cold courtroom where those who make these (baseless) accusations will actually have to PROVE them. They can't. They will have had their fair day in court and been proven about as credible as OJ searching for the real killers.

It's win-win. Exactly.
