“U.S. Commission on Civil Rights”

Where white males have no civil rights.

A federal judge and the Department of Justice has ruled that voters in Port Chester will be allowed to vote six times each. Hispanics in the community have complained that while more than 30,000 of their residents are Hispanic, no Latino has ever been elected to any of the six trustee seats. Federal Judge Stephen Robinson has decided that isn’t fair and that it violates Voting Rights Act. His solution was to allow six votes per person.

The Obama administration started this debacle by deciding the voter intimidation is only a crime when committed by white people. This has little to do with the Black Panthers, and everything to do with institutionalized racism propagated by the Democrat administration.

In typical fashion, the Left defends its institutionalized racism by … yes, accusing its opponents of racism. You couldn’t make this stuff up!

It has always been a legitimate story, voter initimidation is painfully obvious. Her claim that the only reason for the “fuss” is because repubs want to topple Obama is childish and preposterous. Black thugs breaking the law. Period.

Then to make things even more fun, you get the most irrelevant organization in the country when it comes to actually helping African-Americans (NAACP) making it their goal as an organization to do nothing more than pick a fight with white people and claim to be the victim again/still for the 1000th time…

These morons (including the post racial president) are trying like hell to create race wars, not improve relations. They are purposely setting race relations back decades and the media is gladly playing along.

The BS about FOX is sickening . Sorry they are the only real investigative news source anymore .This is the most NON TRANSPARENT WH in history !

Were cowards huh Eric Holder ? Nah you and your race baiting , POS administration is garbage and a F- ing joke ! You people are a disgrace to America and EVERYTHING we’ve ever stood for . Give me Bush back any day , he actually loved our country .

>>”The Obama administration started this debacle by deciding the voter intimidation is only a crime when committed by white people.”

The federal case was dismissed before Holder ever took office. Obama was only around for the civil case.

Oh and why is voter intimidation only newsworthy when the perps are white? Are blacks inherently more dangerous than the minuteman who were brandishing rifles outside of primarily latino voting districts? Why isn’t Fox covering that relentlessly?

You are incorrect. Assistant Attorney General for Civil Rights Loretta King dismissed the case.

“Ms. King, a career senior executive service official, had been named by President Obama in January to temporarily fill the vacant political position of assistant attorney general for civil rights while a permanent choice could be made. ”

This is an Obama/Holder debacle.

^You can’t read. That is the civil case, not the federal case.

Of all the lawyers in the country , Obama picks Eric ( Ok to pardon Marc Rich , Denise will lay plenty of bread on Bill ) Holder . Nice choice . In fact , when choosing his czars , Obama asks Podesta : ” Who is the worst possible person for the country ? That’s who I want .”

This is just pure paranoid, delusional nonsense. Ridiculous and it is truly unbelievable that people come up with, and buy into, this crap.

This could be worse if the author actually isn’t paranoid delusional and is crassly and cynically spewing this nonsense to stir-up empty political publicity and controversy — hoping to get the ignorant, paranoid and racist elements to believe it. A truly sad state of affair for our Nation.

Apostrophe jones says:

The civil case is what’s at issue.

So the previous administration dropping the case because there was no crime committed is completely irrelevant to you? When the last administration dropped the case, they were acting justly? But when the Obama administration drops an even less meritorious civil case, it’s because he they hate white people?

You are delusional. Civil and criminal are two completely different animals. Besides that, anybody watching those two thugs with batons and justifying their behavior either makes you blind or a liar or both.

You people are either ignorant or blind !

Every friend/Mentor/associate of Barack H Obama has held bitterness and resentment towards white people! Research it ! Why can’t you people comprehend that ?!

No, I don’t think anyone should be allowed to brandish weapons outside of a polling place, whether they’re white or black. You seem to only care when it’s, as you called them, “black thugs.”

They ARE black thugs. They are being being protected by this DOJ and this administration. It doesn’t take a Rhodes Scholar to draw a simple conclusion.

And they were protected by the last administration too…

Dewsaq

You want to know why ? Nobody else here will tell you like it is but I will .

George Bush IMO , caved in because he had shitty poll numbers and was already branded a war monger, POS , Worst president , and racist. If he pursued this case he would have caught hell , from the left .. Whining , bitching, George Bush hates Black People BS . IMO

Big difference between one administration not pursuing charges and another administration swooping in and VACATING a default conviction. Racial shenanigans, pure and simple.

So once again conservatives more interested in political gains and not the job they SWORE AN OATH to do, and once again the rabid red chorus

is a jumpin up on their rocks to HISS and flick their forked tongues in anger and ignorance.

i figured Bush administration dropped the case because they had less than two weeks left in office.

For it to be a voter intimidation case someone had to be intimidated and NO ONE came forward to make that claim.

They were not protected by the last DOJ. Do you understand the difference between criminal and civil law? What these two idiots did was a civil offense, the criminal offense would amount to next to nothing more than disturbance of the peace. They (the two in video, the NBPP and the NBPP President) were prosecuted and were assessed a civil judgement against them under the previous DOJ. When the current DOJ came to power, they dismissed 3 of the 4 judgements totally and greatly reduced the fourth to not allowing the person to have a deadly weapon at a polling place until 2012. Gee, who is up for election in 2012?

It was a local ordinance not the FEDERAL DOJ and he was plea bargained down to the crime he would admit to and was sentenced he got probation and the order not to stand outside of a polling place with any weapon is PERMANENT, your ignoRANT is clear.

Thomas G., if they weren’t carrying clubs for purposes of intimidation, just why were they carrying them? What are the other uses for a club?

Thomas you need to go back and read the injunction against him. It expires in 2012 if you simply go to the USCCR website it is plain to see for all. Unfortunately for you, there is no such thing as a plea bargain in a civil case nor is there such thing as probation in a civil case.

In regards to who was actually harrassed, both Bartle Bull & Chris Hill testified to that.

Unions (Not the Tea Party) Now AstroTurfing, MSM Silent

It was April 15, 2009 when Speaker Pelosi pronounced the Tea Party protests as fake, using the term AstroTurf (as in phony grass roots).

The entire MSM covered that story and many worked overtime to brand the Tea Partiers as “AstroTurf” in an effort to discredit a genuine, homegrown movement the likes of which has not been seen in this country in decades.

Despite the fact that tens of thousands of people were part of hundreds of protest events held around the country on Tax Day 2009, NBC’s Chuck Todd appeared on the Today Show telling Matt Lauer the Tea Party movement was one that “hasn’t really caught on”:

On August 4, of last year, while on MSNBC’s Hardball, Senator Barbara Boxer joined in the discredit chorus, telling Chris Matthews that the protesters were “too well dressed” and too well organized to be legitimate:

As the town hall meetings during the summer recess of ‘09 found more and more opposition, the charges of “AstroTurfing” grew louder and were accompanied by warnings that they could turn violent. In August, MSNBC’s Keith Olbermann speculated that there was no spontaneity and brought on Melissa Harris-Lacewell from Princeton University to explain that normal people were being riled up by the GOP and “corporate interests.”

Of course Rachel Maddow wasn’t going to let Keith and Chris have all the fun; last October she actually featured a segment called “The Roots of Astroturfing”:

While Ms. Maddow was quick to point out that the multi-millionaire David Koch had chosen to use his own money to help fund like-minded individuals in their efforts to protest the direction our country was headed, she completely neglected to mention or draw a parallel to the tens of millions of dollars spent by George Soros to fund the liberal learning Center for American Progress, Moveon.org and their assorted activities.

So it should be no surprise to anyone when the labor unions openly admit to AstroTurfing by hiring people to stand in picket lines and protest something while paying less than a union worker would earn, the silence from the media is deafening.

Light the Irony Lamp and let it shine brightly on this one.

Let me repeat that… The folks standing on picket lines and protesting and chanting at union events? They are temp workers hired by the unions. Are you like me? Didn’t you expect those passionate souls demanding better wages, health care and pensions for workers to be union workers? Newsflash, they are not.

The Wall Street Journal reports that the powerful unions who pressure and demand that companies pay a “living wage” to it’s members are only offering minimum wage or barely above it to those who stand, march, and demand what they are not getting.

If the protests are so important, why are the actual union members NOT interested in doing the actual work?

“For a lot of our members, it’s really difficult to have them come out, either because of parking or something else,” explains Vincente Garcia, a union representative who is supervising the picketing.

One of them had a baton, IT WAS NOT A CIVIL CASE it was a local ordinance and he was placed on probation with court ordered conditions and if he shows up at a polling place with a weapon again it is in fact willful intent to violate
The actions of the USCCR are a separate matter dumb@$$.

I have a club and no one has ever said BOO to me as I go up to the night depository with it, that includes the police.

So “dumb@$$, you’re saying that if skinheads wearing Nazi armbands had been standing there with ‘batons’, you’d be busting a gut to downplay that, too. Right? Yeah, right.

Thomas, unfortunately you do not quite understand there is no local jurisdiction at a federal polling location. If you don’t believe it was a civil case please read this taken directly from the doj.gov and pay particular notice how they state it is the UNITED STATES vs Shabazz, not a local ordinance like you claim. Also notice how long the court maintains jurisdiction over this enforcement. I would like my apology in all caps please.

The Department concluded that the evidence collected established that Minister King Samir Shabazz violated Section 11(b) by his conduct at the Philadelphia polling place on Election Day. This evidence included his display of a nightstick at the polling place during voting hours, an act which supported the allegation of voter intimidation. The Department therefore decided to seek an injunction against defendant Minister King Samir Shabazz. In approving the injunction, the district court found that the United States had alleged that Minister King Samir Shabazz “stood in front of the polling location at 1221 Fairmont Street in Philadelphia, wearing a military style uniform, wielding a nightstick, and making intimidating statements and gestures to various individuals, all in violation of 42 U.S.C. § 1973i(b),” (Order of May 18, 2009, at 1), and entered judgment “in favor of the United States of America and against Minister King Samir Shabazz, enjoining Minister King Samir Shabazz from displaying a weapon within 100 feet of any open polling location in the City of Philadelphia, or from otherwise violating 42 U.S.C. § 1973i(b).” Judgment (May 18, 2009). The federal court retains jurisdiction over its enforcement until 2012.

“One suspects this added element of criticism from inside the commission might be just the sort of thing that will justify propelling the story front and center” Glynnis

No!! You think? Now that the Leftist media has been given a card to play, of course it will be on the table.

But their silence on the issue confirms what conservatives have known for decades: the MSM engages in self-censorship of any story that doesn’t fit their worldview: that whites are guilty (of what? everything!) and minorities are the second coming.

What an ignoranting fool you are, there is no such thing as a federal polling location, all the polls are established by a STATE AUTHORITY and for a fact the one was prosecuted by the LOCAL COURTS and the actions of the FEDERAL GOVERNMENT are a separate matter THE COMMISSION sought an INJUNCTION to enforce their authority in their determination of a violation of the laws and regulations under their authority and the FEDERAL COURT retained authority of enforcement over THEIR order in the matter which has nothing to do with other actions by the CITY in this matter.

What a maroon you are, FEDERAL POLLING LOCATIONS???? You will get no apology from me as you do not avail yourself of being fully informed of the entire issue and your ignorance based on a limited set of facts which you trumpet as if they are the be all and end all is ……..

I take it back you are not just ignorant and will fully so you are also bone deep stupid.

Thomas, if the situation was exactly the same, except we substituted white supremacists for black panthers, would you be this adamant in offering a defense?

Your completely submersed in your Bizarro POV, I have confronted WHITE CONSERVATIVES violating the law in a polling place I AM WHITE and if a skin head had done what this guy did and IN A BLACK NEIGHBOR HOOD me thinks he would’ve been a dead skin head, but skin heads dont do this in WHITE NEIGHBOR HOODS do they?

Your playing stupid and you are winning so you must be so far gone in hate mode that nothing of reality penetrates. EVER.

I live in the south and we have voter intimidation cases here all the time, we have games being played by REPUBLICANS all the time, why do you think that the DOJ continues to have authority over the elections in so many red states?, authority that was renewed by REAGAN BUSH1 AND BUSH2 in fact BUSH2s people recommended it be extended for THIRTY more years in the case of my state which is under REPUBLICAN CONTROL .

Grow a brain stem, you have no courage as you pot shot and ignoRANT from a secret identity and like the NINJA your bone deep stupid and you only have HATE as a reward.

SAD

Yeah, Thomas, I can see that you’re retaining your cool. LOL So in all this bluster about Republicans and Reagan and Bush, you still haven’t answered the question. And the neighborhood is irrelevant. (BTW, that remark about the skin heads being dead…you weren’t suggesting that blacks might do violence, were you? Wasn’t that a racist statement?) But I digress. So you agree that voter intimidation is a bad thing, but you’re only willing to bend over backwards to defend it if the intimidation is coming from blacks. That about sum it up?

Spin all you want, fellow travelers, but this is all a matter of public record now. And Holder hasn’t even denied it. The Obama administration decides on which cases to prosecute based on the skin color of the accused. The fact that the Leftists here see nothing wrong with this is worth noting. And here’s the irony: these are the same people who toss out charges of racism against everyone else on a daily basis. I think they have what is known as a credibility problem.

Dewsaq, pay attention to what is going on here. The big issue is not the specific incident in which Black Panthers dressed in paramilitary outfits and showed up at the polling places brandishing weapons. The key issue is that a Justice Department employee has made credible claims that the Obama administration has ordered its lawyers not to prosecute black people, but only white people. Eric Holder hasn’t even denied this charge. For you to blabber on about the Bush administration is totally irrelevant. As to your infantile insults, those speak to your character, and I hardly need to respond to them.

Amen, felix. Same goes for Thomas. He starts name calling and going clear back to Reagan, as if that has anything to do with the topic.

Writer, we should have a poll to pick the least credible person posting at Mediaite. There are a number of Obama fans fighting for the honor. My vote goes to the fellow who uses the term “teaturd” in every post, and thinks he is ready for Comedy Central. Sometimes I can’t tell whether some of these folks are actually presenting liberal views or parodying them.

Who were they there to intimidate? It is a 98% BLACK district.

dewsaq you will see soon that there is no argueing with the righties on here. The district is 98% black. They may have been there to “protect” the black voters. This is just so trumped up even Smirk a radio host in Philadelphia (white) said there could be no intimidation because all the voters were black.

felix, I believe it’s BFD that came up with the ‘teaturd’ gem. He’s a laugh riot. And Black Widow, I have a question. If the panthers weren’t there to intimidate anyone, why were they carrying ‘batons’. In fact, why were they there at all? If, as you say, it’s a 98% black neighborhood, then why was it even necessary for them to be standing there? If not for intimidation, what exactly was the purpose?

If blacks wanna do violence I am sure that like myself they know there is a penalty of law to be faced and let me be the first WHITE MAN and veteran you know of to say SKIN HEADS deserve to receive the violence and fear they generate in others of less than my standard of courage I have run them off and made them aware of exactly how I feel and that is what you do with them it also has to be used on CONSERVALIGIOUS RETHUGLICANS and BAGGERS and BIRTHERS and out and out RELIGAFREAKS of the RETHUGLICAN CHRISTIAN persuasion.

My Life My VOTE My Rights My Freedom which is impinged by and infringed upon by RETHUGLICAN CONSRVALIGIOUS CORPORATE TOADYs.

This as an issue is RETHUGs on the COMMISSION are engaging in partisan activities with their positions of NON-PARTISAN public service BY OATH and the legislated duties of the positions they are holding——-BUT YOU DID NOT GET THE PERTINENT FACTS HERE DID YOU? You have seized upon a side bar issue to deflect YOUR SELF from having to deal with reality that your sides people are corrupt in their positions of responsibility and authority a very common theme with republicans.

Thomas, as you say, anyone doing violence has to answer to the law. If you’ll report all of these thugs that you see intimidating voters, I’m sure the police will pick them up.

BFD goes by that old saying. If you can’t dazzle ‘em with facts, baffle ‘em with bullshit.

But you guys saw a BLACK face and started screaming as LOUD as you could. Prosecute, prosecute, prosecute. No outrage about the White guys in AZ though.

ACORN was vindicated.!!! Suing the filmaker O’Keefe. Who already completed probation for violating someone else’s “civil rights”.

On and On and On with your ‘CRAP” BUSTED, BUSTED, BUSTED!!! Again and still you continue to listen to Fox like Jesus Christ is speaking.

It’s NOT a Obama/Holder debacle. That’s why they’re NOT even addressing it because they know it’s Fox’s B.S. The case was dropped on January 9, 2009. Bush was President. That’s GWB’s DOJ. BTW why don’t you work on that Tea Party racism thing since apparenlty you have time on your hands.

Administration was warned of economy’s collapse
Regulators foresaw meltdown dangers

By MATT APUZZO
THE ASSOCIATED PRESS

WASHINGTON — The Bush administration backed off proposed crackdowns on no-money-down, interest-only mortgages years before the economy collapsed, buckling to pressure from some of the same banks that have now failed. It ignored remarkably prescient warnings that foretold the financial meltdown, according to an Associated Press review of regulatory documents.

“Expect fallout, expect foreclosures, expect horror stories,” California mortgage lender Paris Welch wrote to U.S. regulators in January 2006, about one year before the housing implosion cost her a job.

Bowing to aggressive lobbying — along with assurances from banks that the troubled mortgages were OK — regulators delayed action for nearly one year. By the time new rules were released late in 2006, the toughest of the proposed provisions were gone and the meltdown was under way.

The entire 2-party (teabaggers don’t qualify) “political system” which all or most of you support has reared its ugly head and that has been apparent for years. There is no longer a government “OF THE PEOPLE…BY THE PEOPLE…FOR THE PEOPLE”. Anyone disagreeing with this comment please prove me wrong. With facts not partisan garbage. Oh…take you time….please use your brain and think! After you realize this is an exercise in futility, WAKE UP AND VOTE THESE MONSTERS OUT OF OFFICE FOREVER.

That District and I know because I use to live there is mostly Black, Latino and caucasian and Democratic. It’s NOT the suburbs. The area lies between “Downtown Philadelphia” and North Philadelphia which is considered the Inner City. I’m surprised the residents didn’t “beat” the Panthers up.

Video of the Testimony/Statement of Thomas E. Perez, Assistant Attorney General, Civil Rights Division, Before the U.S. Commission on Civil Rights
May 14, 2010

http://www.mainjustice.com/2010/05/14/perez-testifies-at-new-black-panther-party-hearing/

For those who don’t want to watch the entire proceedings near the end:

Perez says” “One example is the recent instance we have identified that most closely resembles the facts in the 2009 Philadelphia Section 11(b) case that is a primary focus for this hearing. The Civil Rights Division received a complaint from a national civil rights organization regarding a matter in Pima, Arizona alleging that during the 2006 election, three well-known anti-immigration advocates – one of whom was wearing a gun – allegedly intimidated Latino voters at a polling place by approaching several persons, filming them, and advocating against printing voting materials in Spanish. In that instance, the Department declined to bring any action for alleged voter intimidation.”

Why isn’t Fox reporting the intimidation by the “white” men of the Latino voters in 2006 in AZ. Is their “high profile” talent busy? They would have plenty of time if they thought they could “instigate more dirt” on the Obama Administration. I called them (3) times with this story. But, of course, it’s NOT important enough.

@sarainitaly: Like most administrations overseeing a change in party, President Bush was issuing Executive Orders up until the last minute. Of course I have no reason to believe that he was aware of this case, so his actual office would have no bearing, but most of the DOJ are career employees and I kind of doubt that a political appointee would want to make things easier for the next administration or save them possible embarrassment, if they weren’t one of the appointees held over to insure a smooth transition.

What a maroon you are, FEDERAL POLLING LOCATIONS???? You will get no apology from me as you do not avail yourself of being fully informed of the entire issue and your ignorance based on a limited set of facts which you trumpet as if they are the be all and end all is …….. I take it back you are not just ignorant and will fully so you are also bone deep stupid.

Tommy, your silly name calling makes you look even more pathetic. I can see you have absolutely zero experience in legal matters and do not fully understand what you read on google. Maybe you should try engaging with people instead of just calling names, you might actually learn something instead of looking like the angry person that you really are.

I will break this down for you one final time:

When I say Federal polling station = a polling station that involves a federal election, any crimes that are commited against voters are federally punishable in civil courts! Got It yet?

There was nothing about this case prosecuted in any local court, it was done in a federal district court, you know one level below appelate and two below Supreme?? There is not a COMMISSION in the USA that can enforce any injunctions that is left to the court system, always has and always will be.

Tell me again about a limited set of facts….like when you told me “It was a local ordinance not the FEDERAL DOJ and he was plea bargained down to the crime he would admit to and was sentenced he got probation and the order not to stand outside of a polling place with any weapon is PERMANENT”

Speaking of maroons, please tell me about a plea bargain in a civil matter you dunce and tell me again that the “probation” he received was permanent. HAAAA your a riot!

Plus I’ve never heard of a “sentence” being handed down in civil court. HAAAA!!!

Video of the Testimony/Statement of Thomas E. Perez, Assistant Attorney General, Civil Rights Division, Before the U.S. Commission on Civil RightsMay 14, 2010 http://www.mainjustice.com/2010/05/14/perez-testifies-at-new-black-panther-party-hearing/ For those who don’t want to watch the entire proceedings near the end: Perez says” “One example is the recent instance we have identified that most closely resembles the facts in the 2009 Philadelphia Section 11(b) case that is a primary focus for this hearing. The Civil Rights Division received a complaint from a national civil rights organization regarding a matter in Pima, Arizona alleging that during the 2006 election, three well-known anti-immigration advocates – one of whom was wearing a gun – allegedly intimidated Latino voters at a polling place by approaching several persons, filming them, and advocating against printing voting materials in Spanish. In that instance, the Department declined to bring any action for alleged voter intimidation.” Why isn’t Fox reporting the intimidation by the “white” men of the Latino voters in 2006 in AZ. Is their “high profile” talent busy? They would have plenty of time if they thought they could “instigate more dirt” on the Obama Administration. I called them (3) times with this story. But, of course, it’s NOT important enough.

Are you serious with your question? If so, please read something besides your talking points. That case could not be brought against someone because those responsible could not be identified. The difference between that case is you have video evidence of the NBPP perps violating civil rights while no such tape exists of these minutemen.

Because Fox only reports when minorities do bad things. When it is one of their good ole white boys they would never go there.

If a racists calls another person racist in the woods does anyone hear it? Just sayin…

There’s more afoot than the Black Panthers case; there are also strong allegations from more than one career DOJ lawyer that career lawyers and the leadership of this Justice Department are loath to enforce civil rights law where blacks may be the perps and not the victims. The politics may be of interest to many, but they do not detract from the facts demonstrating that this Justice Department supports injustice. Its political suit against Arizona SB 1070 immigration law further demonstrates the DOJ’s ethical weakness.

If it’s concerned about going after really bad guys, how do queries of people involved in lawful stops, detentions and arrests whether they are in this country lawfully or not detract from that concern with bad guys. And how does the Sanctuary position of many U.S. jurisdictions help, if local governments will not inquire just who is living in their communities lawfully, or not?

So my initial dismay with this Thernstrom revelation changed when I realized that the fix is in to ignore substantial charges and let this most corrupt of federal governments continue to make a mess of this country and the law.

As someone who wrote many a headline in his life, I also wish I could get at someone to update the headline. Ms. Thernstrom’s claim had zero to do with toppling the President, but with doing same to Eric Holder and thereby to damage the President. Bring down means topple; damage does not.

Does anyone know why the elected officials in our federal government cannot uphold the Oaths they took when they were inducted. In that Oath and so many others, you promise to uphold our Constitution (as written), but they seem to want to just do away with it and do as the want. We have had so many promises made that were really were not intended to keep, that our government has gone so far down it may never return. When a person Promises to do something, they SHOULD do it OR give a good reason why they didn’t. So far we have not heard one single word from the president, as to why hepromised all those things, but has done just the opposite!!! Think he made those promises, knowing he was lieing, just to get into the WH? What a shame he didn’t know he had to make all those empty promises because he had enough money to buy the WH.

Spot on post Dandee. As you can see by scanning these comments we have a very large uniformed voting public. What is really unfortunate is that if you try to educate them with some actual facts, they will put their thumbs in their ears and commence with name calling. Really is a shame that special interest groups like unions tend to vote about 80% + for one single party…I guess that is the whole idea of the “collective” thinking though.

Why the silence from the Press on the Black Panther Party story?

You better refill your coffee cup, because I’m about to tell you, & even an overview isn’t a short story.

At it’s heart, this issue has nothing to do with Obama, Holder, or any of the other govt co-conspirators in the Democrat held congress, that refuse to hold Obama & Holder accountable.

The heart of this issue goes way back to it’s origins, in the era of the American born lavishly living avowed capitalist William Randolph Hearst, and the violent and hot tempered nervous breakdown prone Hungarian born naturalized American, Joseph Pulitzer, who leaned toward the emerging European style of socialism.

Their business/newspaper battles of “Yellow Journalism” tactics in the late 1800′s & early 1900’s shaped the path of journalism then, & it still is today.

After all, Hearst was, and most often still is, vilified in popular culture, and very widely so. While Pulitzer, despite his violent temper and very often odd mental state, is widely hailed as a journalistic icon, and even a hero for some.

Back on point, the American Left first came into real political power in America, with support from the Left leaning press, during the three way race between Bull Moose ~progressive~ Teddy Roosevelt, Conservative Republican William Howard Taft, & far Left Democrat Woodrow Wilson, in the 1912 election.

Wilson, a racial segregationist & big government supporter, was widely supported by the press, & he won the presidency with a plurality of 41% of the vote. Ever since then the American press has become very deft at the political strategy of “Divide & Conquer”

And today the press has maintained a collective mindset to do whatever it takes to advance a Left leaning agenda, to elect their preferred Left leaning politicians, & they do so as often as humanly possible.

The press knows about, & isn’t ashamed to use, their ability to set the political agenda by framing the narratives we see every day in the ~News~ in a manner that best suits their political worldview.

With that so, they simply ignore & don’t report anything unfavorable towards Democrats, while they simultaneously raise unholy hell about everything possible regarding Republicans.

As one example, in 1934 British socialist & science fiction writer H.G. Wells interviewed Joseph Stalin in Moscow, this is well after it was known that Stalin was a cruel & murderous despot, Wells stated to Stalin:

“…I would like to stress the point that if a country as a whole adopts the principle of planned economy, if the government, gradually, step by step, begins consistently to apply this principle, the financial oligarchy will at last be abolished and socialism, in the Anglo-Saxon meaning of the word, will be brought about. The effect of the ideas of Roosevelt’s “New Deal” is most powerful, and in my opinion they are socialist ideas. It seems to me that instead of stressing the antagonism between the two worlds, we should, in the present circumstances, strive to establish a common tongue for all the constructive forces.”

To that Stalin in part replied:

“That is all very well. But as soon as Roosevelt, or any other captain in the contemporary bourgeois world, proceeds to undertake something serious against the foundation of capitalism, he will inevitably suffer utter defeat.”

And following that, the American press saw to it that Roosevelt’s drinking & womanizing never became a public issue.

They never reported on any of Roosevelt’s excessive expensive vacations & his blatantly lavish lifestyle, while the rest of the country suffered & even starved, during the worst of the Great Depression.

They never belittled Roosevelt for his breaking George Washington’s parting plea to the country that no man should ever serve more than two terms as president, nor remind the public that despite enormous pressure to run for a third term of the presidency, Washington again stated his ethic, of no more than two terms.

They never published photographs of Roosevelt in his wheelchair, even though early on, the chair may have been utilized more to overcome excessive drink, than to overcome the polio that ravaged his body.

They simply collectively chose to elevate every possible thing that could enhance Roosevelt’s stature, & ignored & didn’t report on one single thing that may have loosened Roosevelt’s grip on the presidency.

They protected Roosevelt while he threatened the courts, while he threatened the House & Senate, while he ignored Hitler’s savagery, while he unconstitutionally deprived millions of citizens of much of their Liberty, and perhaps worst of all, while & after he wholly ignored the clear & emerging military threat of Japan, culminating in the bloody attack on Pearl Harbor, Hawaii.

With all that so, even though the world has changed considerably, why would anyone expect the Leftist press to not provide the same, or even more protections for Obama, that they willing provided for Roosevelt?

Jesus Christ, Geraldo had Mark Williams and Malik Zulu Shabazz on his show today.
The battle of the racist douchebags.

Why does FOX give these assholes airtime?

The constant reporting by Fox on the NBPP has just made them stronger. They brought out hundreds of protesters to a rally today.

Nice going, Megyn.

Absolutely 100% not true.

I have a club and no one has ever said BOO to me as I go up to the night depository with it, that includes the police.

So, you are admitting that carrying a club is intimidating, and no one ever approaches you when you carry it, right? Therefore, New Black Panthers carrying clubs is intimidating and people were most likely hesitant to approach them.

jimw1016 said:
So?

So, I just figured they dropped it because they were leaving office, and didn’t want to deal with it. If, as Magister said above, that the staff doesn’t change with new administrations, and most likely Bush didn’t even know about, then it doesn’t really matter that the Bush administration dropped the criminal case, does it.

The O administration dropped the civil case, and the people working in the DOJ dropped the criminal case. Sounds like it is irrelevant whether the Bush admin dropped the criminal case.

A poll watcher who provided an affidavit to prosecutors in the case noted that Bartle Bull, who worked as a civil rights lawyer in the south in the 1960′s and is a former campaign manager for Robert Kennedy, said it was the most blatant form of voter intimidation he had ever seen.

In his affidavit, obtained by FOX News, Bull wrote “I watched the two uniformed men confront voters and attempt to intimidate voters. They were positioned in a location that forced every voter to pass in close proximity to them. The weapon was openly displayed and brandished in plain sight of voters.”

He also said they tried to “interfere with the work of other poll observers … whom the uniformed men apparently believed did not share their preferences politically,” noting that one of the panthers turned toward the white poll observers and said “you are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker.”

The group already had 350 members.

Now why does the New Black Panther Party have ties to the Democratic Party;

http://online.wsj.com/article/SB10001424052970203550604574361071968458430.html

“…it was learned one of the defendants who walked was Jerry Jackson, a member of Philadelphia’s 14th Ward Democratic Committee and a credentialed poll watcher for the Democratic Party last Election Day”

Now why does the Democratic party have official ties to the New Black Panther Party that Jerry Jackson, one of he defendants and NBPP member is the local Democratic election polling committee?

Plus it was an African-American who called the police on those NBPP members intimidating voters.

The old white person was there. YOU and your haters on this site weren’t anywhere near the Justice Dept. She’s telling the truth.
Why aren’t you haters “Screaming” about the DOJ NOT prosecuting the “white” guys who intimidated the voters in AZ. carrying a GLOCK. The DOJ didn’t prosecute them. What’t the matter. Did the catch get the RACIST tongues or Faux isn’t reporting that “crime”. So according to the “blind deaf and dumb”. If Fox didn’t say it. The AZ CRIME DID NOT HAPPEN.

It was an African-American working at the polling place that called the police on the New Black Panther party…and the two men in Arizona WERE NOT credentialed Democratic party ward poll watchers.

…oh an I am a person of color and what the the NBPP did was racist and why doesn’t the NAACP denounce the Democrats for having racist and anti-Semitic New Black Panther Party members as credentialed ward poll watchers?

Ask the Liberals. NAMBLA is a Liberal group.

yweston, if Acorn was completely vindicated, why did your Democratic controlled congress vote to drop their funding? As for the panther story ‘toppling’ Obama, it was already known that Obama had ties to racists and terrorists (Rev. Wright, Louis Farrakhan, Bill Ayers) and most people paid no attention. Yet the tea party is always called upon to denounce the racists in their midst. No hypocrisy there.

I’m so glad we live in the post-racial Obama era where peace and love reign over the land.

Fukks News is the “news’ organization instigating all this racial tension as a ploy to overthrow Obama………..wow…… surprise surprise

FUKKS NEWS…WE DECIDE ..U ABIDE

T Rex do you think it is a bad thing to hold an administration accountable for not upholding civili liberties. I’m sure you were all for any coverage of the “torture is an impeachable offense” coverage were you not?

T REX said:

Hey, here’s thought… If Holder hadn’t dropped the civil suit, for what appear to be reasons of race, we wouldn’t even be talking about this. But no, this racist administration is what it is.

Obama and Eric Holder sealed their fate when they dropped this case. They have proven their RACISM several times over. OUT with the both of them!! The sooner the bettter, even though we would have to put up with the village idiot, Buffoon Biden for a while.

Abbigail Thernstrom is WRONG! What is toppling the -0bama thugocracy is -0bama. Of course, the fact that he has yet to denounce the NBPP, Shabazz, and cause Eric Holder to take the voter intimidation case to full and ernest prosecution doesn’t help. Everyone will soon be trying to find a box of excuses as to why Mr. -0bama’s presidency was such a dismal failure; Ms. Thernstrom has submitted her excuse.
