"COLUMBIA, S.C. – The Justice Department on Friday rejected South Carolina's law requiring voters to show photo identification at the polls, saying it makes it harder for minorities to cast ballots. It was the first voter ID law to be refused by the federal agency in nearly 20 years."
In fact, the Black Panthers voter intimidation case in Philly was blatant that veteran civil rights activist Bartle Bull who served under Robert F. Kennedy in Mississippi in the '60s was qouted as saying:
This is the same DOJ that refused to prosecute the Black Panthers for standing outside of voting centers in Philadelphia, brandishing weapons and using racial slurs against white people who were trying to go inside to vote.
J. Christian Adams, who was an attorney for the DOJ and considered to be the "whistle blower" in the DOJ Black Panthers case is qouted as saying:
"[the] 1965 Voting Rights Act protects voters from voter intimidation. You’re supposed to be able to go vote without somebody with a weapon shouting racial slurs at you like these folks were doing in Philadelphia."
In fact, the Black Panthers voter intimidation case in Philly was blatant that veteran civil rights activist Bartle Bull who served under Robert F. Kennedy in Mississippi in the '60s was qouted as saying:
"[this] was the worst case of voter intimidation he has ever seen in his 40 years of practicing civil rights laws."
J. Christian Adams goes on to say that the DOJ has a policy now of not pursuing cases if the defendant is black and the victim is white. The interview with J. Christian Adams can be viewed below.
Now, clearly the 1965 Voting Rights Act was passed to protect voters from intimidation. Can someone explain to me how asking someone to show a photo ID in order to vote is "intimidating?" According to the actions of Obama and Eric Holders DOJ it's obviously more intimidating than the Black Panthers wearing uniforms and boots, brandishing clubs and using racial slurs outside voting centers.
Showing a photo ID doesn't seem to be "intimidating" or even any kind of problem at all when it comes to these "minorities" and non-minorities alike receiving any kind of government assistance. But, suddenly when it comes time to vote then oh-no ... asking for an ID disenfranchises the minority voter. What the hell ... minorities can't get photo ID's? Is this a privilege reserved only for white people?
BS ... this only guarantees the democrats more access to voter fraud. As I have pointed out in my other post, the democrats are and have been for sometime engaged in systematically defrauding the voting system in this Country and this latest effort by the DOJ is just another text book example.
Despite the fact that Obama has the lowest approval rating of any sitting president in history and that no president has ever been re-elected with approval ratings this low going into an election year, I predict that Obama will win in 2012. Just like in 2008, the democrat party will assist him in once again in stealing the election.
