Justice Department Continues to Act in Non-Race-Neutral Fashion
On July 13, the Department of Justice blew an opportunity to put to rest the issue of whether they are willing to enforce the Voting Rights Act in a race-neutral fashion by objecting to a request by a proven discriminator to further discriminate. I wrote about this pending request at PJ Media. At the time I noted:
Bottom line, if this Justice Department was truly interested in enforcing the law in a race-neutral fashion, they could stop Brown’s discriminatory scheme for the cost of a postage stamp. A simple objection letter would prevent him from implementing a practice Judge Lee already has found to violate the law. Any other choice by Holder this week, other than an objection letter, will broadcast DOJ’s disdain toward equal enforcement of the voting laws.
The reason they did not resolve this with a postage stamp, and send an objection letter, is because they do not want whites and Asians, when they are the discriminated-against minority, to be protected under Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act.
Sadly, the Department did not object to the submission and therefore refused to protect the white minority in Noxubee County in the least costly, most powerful way possible — a simple letter objecting to the proposal. Why? Because it is high heresy to include discriminated-against whites within the protections of Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act. This attitude is common knowledge within the voting section.
On July 12, it silently sent a “no determination” letter, effectively a cop-out against using Section 5 to protect the white minority in Noxubee County. I am told by a news outlet that the supposedly transparent administration played hide the ball for almost 24 hours, not providing the letter to the public.
There’s more. On July 13, it filed a motion to extend for a few years a remedy in the civil court case the Bush administration brought in 2005 and won in 2007. The order seeks to extend the remedy until after the next presidential election. This means the Department will never have to roll up their sleeves and monitor what Ike Brown, their political friend, is doing in Noxubee.
Amazingly, the Department is also seeking an order from the federal court to prevent Ike Brown, the discriminator, from making any more inconvenient submissions to the Obama Justice Department which might reveal the hostility toward equal enforcement of the law. Simply put, they are asking the court to prohibit Brown from sending any more submissions under Section 5. Not only would this go beyond the powers of the court to order, it is a naked play to avoid facing the issue of unequal enforcement for the remainder of the first, and maybe last, term of the Obama administration. If Brown can’t file submissions to the DOJ, the DOJ won’t have to take the side of the white victims. This is unnecessary and shamefully transparent.
Don’t forget, this court effort is the relic of a Bush administration case. It’s one thing to file a motion in a successful case the previous administration brought and won; it’s quite another to bring cases of the same sort in the future. There is next to no chance this Justice Department will bring these voting cases, even though they exist.
This unnecessary request to prevent Ike Brown from making any further submissions will allow the Department to conveniently avoid any public litmus test of their attitude about who is protected by Section 5 of the Voting Rights Act. If Brown can’t make any more submissions to the DOJ, then the DOJ won’t have to confront the issue of whether his victims are protected under Section 5. This is one of the most novel forms of “prior restraint” I’ve ever seen.
God bless you Mr. Adams. Please keep up the good work. So many people are behind you in your courageous effort against this tyrannical administration.
I live in Philadelphia and its an anti-white racist hellhole. They not only practice institutionalized discrimination against me and my family in jobs, academia, government, etc., but now its also extended to the judicial system.
God speed.
Race neutrality is impossible. Whenever more than one races occupies the same territory, the instinctive competition for dominance arises. Always has; always will. You may not be interested in race, but race is interested in you (HT: Trotsky).
BTW Mr. Adams we are going to take to the streets to defend our liberty and our rights in a peaceful manor. This is no time for armchair quarterbacks.
Sadly predictable. Not only does Holder do the wrong thing he manages to spend a lot of money doing it.
It’s funny how Obama had all three of his challengers for state senate seat in 1996 removed from the ballot on technicalities so that he could run unopposed.
I guess the law is only applicable when it is convenient.
Obama has had absolutely no qualms about disenfranchising black voters in the past. The ones that weren’t voting for him, that is.

The US is seriously messed up. I just can’t understand how 300 million Americans still have the patience to put up with these Federal scoundrels. I just can’t understand.
I’m going to be as annoying and repetitive as the World Cup vuvuzelas:
VOLUNTEER TO CHECK VOTER REGISTRATIONS, POLL WATCH, ETC. ESPECIALLY IN KEY SENATE RACES THIS FALL! Restore America to a country of law.
Screw that. I’ll be taking my billy club with me this November.
Hear hear. Let’s make political correctness obsolete and quit playing their game.
You do that then watch how the DOJ moves swiftly. That is unless you are black, socialist, and call for the death of “crackers” and “cracker” babies.
“Non-Race-Neutral”? Come on, call a spade a spade, dude. DOJ is being run by RACIST hacks.

LibertyAtStake, I intended my comment above as a reply to your comment, not Jason S’s. I’m sick of our mamby pamby way of talking too. In that regard, we are the nation of cowards we’ve been accused of being.
However, Jason, I’m not sure I understand your comment. If we are poll watchers (with cameras, not billy clubs), we can have much more impact on many votes, rather than just on our own one vote.

Of course I jest – I don’t condone violence and I don’t even own a billy club. I was just trying to illustrate what a dangerous precedent the JD is setting. I mean, if we can expect equal justice under the law, then ostensibly we could all take our batons, battle axes, javelins, and swords down to the polling station without expecting much more than a slap on the wrist. Is this how Eric Holder’s department intends on applying justice? Where crimes become permissible if the offender has a certain skin pigmentation? Kindergardners left alone in the Amazon would form a better system than that, and I mean that literally. Think about it. Kindergardners. In the Amazon.
Christian, you know the law. what can we do at the polls to insure fairness and honesty at the polling places? can we stand around and watch w/o being arrested? can we take pix of suspicious activities? if things get whacky can we call the cops?
i have a bad feeling about the fraud that is obviously going on under our noses at the polling places. there is a reason they don’t want to clear up the voter rolls of dead people and such. heck, we might just erase obama’s SS# off the rolls. wouldn’t THAT be a hoot?
I hesitate to post my view of what Holder’s goal is, in case I give his allies an idea. Suffice it to say that I don’t think that NBPP members will worry about killing Whitey, if that will help them achieve their goals.
Here is something else worth seeing about Obama’s vote rigging.

Thanks for the link. This is the where this story originates.

The other night I watched Keith Olberman for grins. He made some claims that I know are patently false. One claim I’d like this author to comment on was that
he’d found the smoking gun, that Tom Perez had testified (before the Civil Rights Commission) that on January 9, 09 or thereabouts, the Bush administration had dropped the NBPP case. Now It appeared that Tom had been working in the State of Maryland at the time, so if that is the claim, he would not have been directly involved (The press release by the WH announced his appointment in March 09). Seems fishy to me, if not a blatant fabrication by MSNBC. Note this was preceded by the unabated assertion that the good congressman Cleaver had been spit upon and that Tea Partiers were racists.
Hey J. Christian Adams if you really care about this issue(which I question) why not take up the end run real issue here…. Is obama legally allowed to be president?
The first few pieces you do were great however this piece is borderline whining… Much like every other law, civil rights is in the eye of the beholder…
If obama chooses to make the citizens defend themselves in court in many respects that legal… dirty, corrupt, racist but legal… and I agree with 7. LibertyAtStake…. either this is racism or not… “Non-Race-Neutral”… grow up and maybe grow a set to say reality.
Voter problems have been happening since 2006 or even earlier with illegal aliens and dead voters along with ppl who are legally able to run/hold office…
One tiny area is not a big deal when you look at the big picture and see obama in it… a person who wasn’t even legally suppose to be able to run let alone hold office…
It’s really sad when the clueless try to make every issue about their pet, discredited issue.
Obama is a US citizen.
Obama was entitled to run for the office of president.
Obama’s win was certified by all the controlling legal authorities.
Nothing can change that. Learn to live with it.
If you want to waste your energy on this quixotic mission, be my guest, but don’t expect support from anyone who can think.
“Obama is a US citizen.”
Meaningless….
“Obama was entitled to run for the office of president.”
Nope no one is entitled to run…. sorry but thats like blacks claiming they entitled to the special treatment in this current case.
“Obama’s win was certified by all the controlling legal authorities.”
Wow so much fail. First the controlling authorities can’t override the US Constitution. Second they didn’t correctly certify anything. Third Both of the above are irreverent since the US Constitution clearly states obama CAN NOT be president.
“Nothing can change that. Learn to live with it.
If you want to waste your energy on this quixotic mission, be my guest, but don’t expect support from anyone who can think.”
And this is why the US Constitution and the US will fall apart… Ppl like you and J. Christian Adams going nutty over a minor small picture issue which really you have no legal ground to stand on. If obama chooses to spend trillions and run the country into ruin according to you its perfectly legal because he’s president… same with this issue. If obama chooses to punt this to the courts to handle thats perfectly legal for him to do….
Every whine that comes up on PJM posting is something obama can legally do because according to you and them(PJM) he is the president legally… yeah he maybe using dirty, borderline corrupt, underhanded tricks to get the stuff passed…. but once again according to you its all legal… so in the end ppl like you are just whining… period.
Grow up… deal with reality. Either accept that obama is legit and thus his current actions are legal… or don’t… you can’t have it both ways. If obama is president this is a legit action.
Since you believe him to be legit vote in 2010/2012 and vote him out(assuming he lets you vote/counts your vote). Ignorance of the US Constitution got obama into office and it will keep him there past 2012.
Whats also sad is that its considered a “quixotic mission” to defend the US Constitution and demand it be enforced….
ANyone is entitled to run, nobody is entitled to win.
Since Obama meets all constitutional requirements for running for office, there is no constitutional issues.
As to your dismissal of this as a minor issue. I’m still trying to find why you don’t beleive voter intimidation is a big deal. It’s one of the biggest deals around.
“Since Obama meets all constitutional requirements for running for office, there is no constitutional issues.”
Maybe if you do some basic research such as reading the US Constitution you’d clearly see obama doesn’t meet the requirements to hold the office of president.
“As to your dismissal of this as a minor issue. I’m still trying to find why you don’t believe voter intimidation is a big deal. It’s one of the biggest deals around.”
One county having voting issues is nothing to ignoring the requirements set forth in the US Constitution…. once again insanely small picture issues. Plus its well known this isn’t the only place and they are lots of voter fault issues that ppl don’t even want to look into…(like how obama even managed to get on the ballet… or for that matter many others who are known not to be legally able to run/hold office). Once again hey major voting fraud issue with obama even being on the ballet… you say not important… but you whine about this?
If we can’t even get the US federal government to obey the US Constitution which they are required to follow and is the highest law of the law… some minor voting issues is meaningless and borderline petty… how do you expect the law to be applied to a county/city/state/etc when you can’t even get the federal government to obey the most important laws of the land….? You can’t and you won’t so the issue is pointless and meaningless.
These are some of the most convoluted and poorly thought comments I have had the displeasure of reading on these forums. Please take a course in logic, both of you.
markthegreat????? i can think – ob ain’t legal……
Yes he is, and no amount of wishfull thinking is going to change that.
MarkTheGreat THIS IS HOW YOUR POST SHOULD HAVE READ
It’s really sad when the clueless try to make every issue about their pet, discredited issue. And doubly sad that I dont have the common sense I was born with.
Obama is a US citizen. NOW but was an INDONESIAN CITIZEN when he attended school in Jakarta. (CITIZENS ONLY allowed in State schools was the Indonesian LAW when he lived there)
Obama was entitled to run for the office of president. Ooops sorry no he wasn’t we STILL dont know where he was born ( no VAULT BC a (probably false) COLB is not good enough) and he USED to be a FOREIGN CITIZEN (see above) which ELIMINATES him not counting maybe so many MORE things in his HIDDEN DOCUMENTATION.
Obama’s win was certified by all the controlling legal authorities. Yes because they did not have all the FACTS because he HID them .
Nothing can change that. Learn to live with it. Oh yes it can IMPEACHMENT and release of ALL the HIDDEN DOCUMENTS
If you want to waste your energy on this quixotic mission, be my guest, but don’t expect support from anyone who can think. And certainly not from me who has just proved he CANT.
Mr. Adams, thank you for your courage in coming forward to expose this injustice.
Mr. Adams you give me hope. There still is honor in men. God bless you and your integrity. Your courage and honor makes you a giant in a sea of small men. You are my great American hero.
Thank You Sir. ~Craig Pettersson
I feel a dictatorship comming…
John —- “COMING” it’s here!!!!!
None of this is any surprise if you consider that Eric Holder spent the 90′s — even as real carnage raged in major cities — helping design training guidelines for prosecutors to impose even more subjectivity and politics into the ethically subjective and political hate crimes protocols being put into place by Janet Reno and Clinton.
His standard testimony as point person for Reno on “hate” was a simple — and contemptuous — “Don’t let anybody tell you hate crimes aren’t different than other crimes. They are different.” In other words, shut up and stop asking questions, because you won’t get answers anyway.
This was his attitude towards the public at a time when he and other radical activists were dismantling the notion of equal protection under the law — for crime victims. And the methodology was an activist movement within state and federal prosecutor’s offices, carefully designed to produce desired statistics that reflected a regressive vision of America as a country threatened, not by street crime, but by an imagined “rising tide” of white bigotry instead.
In order to do this, of course, you have to create multiple fictions — that hatred of women, even random harassment, serial killing and serial rapes of women doesn’t “count” as hate (a lesson the media has absorbed in the Gibson case); that the prevalence of minority-on-white crime never includes the types of name-calling that or other “hate speech” so eagerly sought in rare white-on-minority cases; that minor, un-investigated “incidents” may be elevated to the status of crimes in the interest of busking up the utterly fictional statistics; that Hispanics will be counted as Hispanic when they are victims but as “white” or “black” when they are offenders (and imagine which is most politically useful).
This was Holder’s last political job before becoming AG. Kagan and Holder cut their teeth on the reintegration of unequal treatment into our federal justice system — and then disseminated to the states through training grants and money to open “hate” divisions. Meanwhile, Obama was busy opposing measures that would address Chicago’s utterly tragic minority-on-minority crime wave. It’s a mindset.
These people don’t care about real crime, or real safety, or even real hate. They look at the Justice Department and see only political opportunity — the opportunity to create a false picture of America that conforms with their own prejudices. I’m not surprised they are doing the same with the voting rights division: this is just what they do. I’m glad J. Adams has had the courage to speak out. Few do.
Thanks for this thoughtful post TT. I found this sentence particularly profound…
“Kagan and Holder cut their teeth on the reintegration of unequal treatment into our federal justice system”
From all media indications before the election, we should have ‘transcended’ race by now so…what has gone wrong? America has her first black POTUS but some people are still calling for ‘reparations’. I’ve got news for those people…you can have ‘equality’ as MLK had envisioned, or you can have ‘reparations’. You can’t have both. They are mutually exclusive.
So, where are all the race cards coming from? Who is responsible for injecting race into every issue these days? You can see it in the rhetoric surrounding the AZ law. ‘Anti-illegal’ doesn’t mean ‘anti-immigrant’ but… the LSM has labeled it just that. Aren’t they accusing every policeman in AZ of being racist when they lament their inability to NOT ‘profile’? Isn’t that one helluva blanket insult? Isn’t it true that anyone who may insist on ‘profiling’ is actually more likely to engage in that practice NOW than after the law takes effect? After all, the language specifically prohibits ‘profiling’.
Labeling the Tea Party as ‘racist’ is another blanket accusation that the NAACP just tossed out. Could that be considered ‘hate-speech’? Guess not, since it’s directed at ‘mostly white folk’. I wonder why they didn’t include the NBPP in their ‘condemnation’. Oh wait, then they would be condemning the NAACP….lol. Silly me. They really should be ticked that a Tea-Partier had a sign that said ‘What you talkin’ about Willis’. That’s much worse than ‘white devil’ or ‘honkey’ or my favorite one that the head of the NBPP keeps repeating in reference to Glenn Beck…”tricky little devil”.
Every group has a radical fringe and the NAACP should not be throwing stones (or race cards).
And what about ‘crakkka’? Hate-speech? Obviously it’s directed at just one race but…does it make the cut? “Killin’ crakka babies” just isn’t specific enough I guess. At least the “King” won’t be allowed to intimidate voters again…at least not with a weapon…at least not in Philly…at least not until 2012. “Justice” department indeed.
I wish someone had told me that ‘racism’ was a one-way street. It would have given me a whole new perspective on the progress of race relations…my admiration and respect for Dr. King…my obsession with ‘fairness’ and ‘equality’ and my utter hatred of double-standards and hypocrisy.
I guess ‘transcending race’ just depends on what your definition of the word ‘transcend’ is.
Ouch. Well put. Fifteen years ago, when my job required me to participate in the nascent “hate crimes” movement, there was always a lot of talk about what to do about the “problem” of minorities possibly being charged with hate crimes — after all, the point was to line certain activist pockets and paint white America as relentlessly and eternally racist, so it wouldn’t do if too many minority youth, who are over-represented in virtually every crime category, ended up charged with hate. Or, any at all.
O course, this problem was solved by creating enforcement protocols that are so risibly biased that they must be buried too deep to ever be found. A more direct solution — limiting hate crime victims to “groups historically discriminated against” (ie. no whites) was deemed too politically risky (not to mention legally indefensible). But, believe me, that’s what Holder et. al. really wanted to do. So they did it anyway, but through enforcement — rather than creating a legal paper trail. And their useful idiots in academia — you can see examples on my blog — back them up with equally risible “studies” declaring this trend or that trend in “hate” from the jerry-rigged stats and selective prosecutions.
Thus is a picture of America painted — where someone can go out and systematically, randomly slaughter four or ten or forty women in L.A. or Pittsburgh or Wyoming or NYC, in precisely the same manner that Matthew Shepard was killed, and with precisely the same motive and motive operandi — and Shepard’s murder (or Byrd’s) is held up as the only significant crime, while all those dead women are rendered less legally and morally significant in the eyes of our president and Attorney General and much of the media and academia. No wonder racial bias and inequity runs through Holder’s Justice Department. Creating inequality — in which some human lives matter less than others in the eyes of the law — is nothing less than his life’s work. I don’t know why anybody would think otherwise.
Oh p’leeeze! Do any of you really think Obowamama and the Dems will NOT cheat in the next two elections? This stuff with the NBPP is just a diversion. As long as the MSM and judiciary are on the side of the Dems, nothing will change and there will never be honest elections.
What we have not heard about is the Secretary of State project by Soros to control the SOS of the states. The SOS control the voting process including the counting and registering of votes. “The people who cast the votes decide nothing. The people who count the votes decide everything.” – Stalin
In fact I would not put it past the Dems and Obowamama to call off the next elections: Suppose the NAACP and NBPP collude to start a race war just before the November elections and Obowamama calls off the elections-he calls for martial law.
As I have asked before and I’ll ask again, what will YOU do to take back America?
What will I do? Vote.
Even in 2008, a year when The Won was praised for bringing lots of new voters out to vote (and for all I know, he might have), less than 2/3 of all Americans eligible to vote did so.
That, my fellow Americans, is nothing less than shameful, and quite possibly contributed to us having the Teleprompter-Reader-in-Chief in the Oval Office now.
Yes, I see lots of people going to Tea Parties and commenting online, but what are you going to do when the rubber hits the road on the second Tuesday in November? Sit in your La-Z-Boy (they’re named that for a reason, you know) looking for I Love Lucy reruns on TV, or get out and cast your ballot? Good intentions are all well and good, but they’re useless if not married to a definitive action: VOTING.
It’s not only your right, it’s your duty, especially if you want to keep the United States from going the way of Greece.
Oh, and remember this: If it ain’t close, they can’t cheat! (Well, they can try, but it becomes tremendously harder as the race gets less close).
Race war is what this regime is trying to stir up; It would give Obama and Holder the excuse they need to instill martial law with their domestic troops, the New Black Panthers.
The Obama Regime has taken America back 50 years in race relations, and this is not good enough for them.
You know, I very much want to believe in the left’s vision of a multicultural society in which everyone is treated the same without regard to race and all those other things, a truly colorblind nation.
But my common sense tells me that isn’t possible given human nature, and that we are very much more likely to see the hallowed principle of “Turnabout is Fair Play” implemented every time the reigns in Washington change hands. As the “minorities” swiftly become majorities in localities, then in states, this will turn into a serious and depressing game indeed.
Did we all forget Harry Reid’s comments about “finding a light skinned African American to run for president”?How about Alinsky’s veiw on the black man?Who is using whom here?Do you really think the “powers that be” want to empower the black man?Are we all that naive?This white and black hate segment was perfectly planned out.Just sit back and ask yourself this question? What better way to divide the America people than to ignite hate through prejudice?Although I do believe Mr. Adams is sincere.We must not only veiw these events with disdain,we must look beyond to whom will gain in the end.It will not be the white man nor the the black man,but the enemy of liberty.Evil.
Excellent comment !
Divide et impera (Usually WRONGLY translated by “divide and conquer”: divide and dominate).
And certainly the enemy of Freedom is evil.
Freedom is God’s gift to the human beings.
The DOJ operates like the pigs in Orwell’s Animal Farm: all animals are equal, but some are more equal than others.
In the new multiculti PC Obamerica, justice will be enforced differently for different racial/ethnic groups according to the hierarchy of victimhood and which group is more oppressed. This is why the DOJ favors Muslim terrorists, black panther thugs and illegal immigrants.
Give Darrel Issa a majority in the house and these DOJ bigots will catch hell.
Thank you for the information you give us, sir.
If this Administration does not apply the law, this administration is violating its duties as established by the Constitution.
And there is a link today on Drudge about the fact that they are sending money to Pennsylvania, money that will be used for abortions. Federal tax money used for abortions.
I start having serious moral problems with this administration.
Huge.
Let us pray, let us open our spirit to the Love and the Light of God.
Fox needs to get this Ike Brown in an interview, in studio or the street. If they do, it’s curtains for Holder who should resign in any case. His leadership is an agenda driven and racist disaster.
I have no doubt in my mind that BHO and co are trying to provoke a civil war in this country. They’re going the right way about it.
i’m hoping that when Mr. Brown starts his shenanigans again, that our new media, i.e. citizen journalists, will be on hand to film him. See ya Ike on front and center on the new media sites.
This is very serious business folks. Extraordinarily serious. It doesn’t take a Sherlock Holmes to figure out what’s at stake once one has read all of Mr. Adams’s articles.
If any citizen’s right to vote unmolested is not upheld, whether due to race, political party, or even differing preference of candidate within the party, AND fraudulent registrations are not purged it matters not what the people want. Our true voices will not be heard. This country can effectively be stolen right out from under us.
Indeed; Truley serious.
Congress hasn’t listened to the American People since 2006, when they dominated Congress. We are being completely ignored at this time. They want ultimate power and control of the United States. They want to see Republicans/Conservatism permanently marginalized, if not completely obliterated.
And they will stir up race wars to get their agenda.

OBAMA AVOIDS BIBLE VERSES !
Here are some Bible verses that Pres. Obama avoids:
Proverbs 19:10 (NIV): “It is not fitting for a fool to live in luxury – how much worse for a slave to rule over princes!”
Also Proverbs 30:22 (NIV) which says that the earth cannot bear up under “a servant who becomes king.”
And Ecclesiastes 5:2-3 (KJV) advises: “let thy words be few…a fool’s voice is known by multitude of words.”
Although Obama is not descended from slaves, he may feel that he’s destined to become a black-slavery avenger.
Or maybe an enslaver of all free citizens!
Backpedaling, Spinning, Re-interpreting, and Lying–Part Two
Deception is not the exclusive province of politicians, even if they have proven themselves more skilled in deceptive practices than most. Sometimes it is groups on the periphery of civilized society that “practice to deceive,” sometimes it’s the government itself that practices deception.
The NBPP Goes Mainstream? The so-called New Black Panther Party for Self Defense, the NBPP, has been virtually shunned by the old Black Panther Party, which says a great deal about the NBPP.
The old Panthers, led by such illustrious figures as Huey P. Newton and Bobby Seale in the ’60’s and ’70’s was merely a violent, Marxist, black racist group that engaged in murder and mayhem in its efforts to overthrow the government of the United States of America.
The NBPP hasn’t as yet been found guilty of murder but give it time; it’s barely 20 years old and is more skilled than the old Panthers in using American law and white guilt in covering its tracks. Led by Malik Zulu Shabazz and formerly headed by the late Khalid Abdul Muhammed, a renegade from the black racist hate group, the Nation of Islam, it is a formidable force.
With those bona fides, credentials, and historicity, . . .

I don’t know if Mr. Adams or anyone else actually has read what the Department of Justice filed in the case or what it is about, but the department actually opposed Mr. Brown’s backdoor efforts to discriminate ganst white voters and has asked the federal judge in the case to extend sanctions against Mr. Brown and his cronies for two more years, thus leaving elections in the county in question in the hands of an outside third-party administrator rather than in the hands of Brown. Please, please, please don’t be blinded by people who either don’t understand the case, haven’t even been to Noxubee County, don’t understand the law or want to and are guided by pure selfish partisan politics and not by the facts.
Chris –
As a law school classmate and friend from way back, what a jolt to see your name appear in lights over the last few days. Let’s catch up offline, so … facebook me.
Meanwhile, it strikes me that your commitment to the Voting Rights Act is both laudatory and a bit surprising. I know you as a strong advocate of states rights, anti-federal power, and judicial restraint. Conservatives in the 1960s (when the Voting Rights Act was passed over their strong objections) and many conservatives today take philosophical and political umbrage at the Act’s strong federal-over-state mandate and at the Act’s gift of power to the federal courts to “interfere” in local politics.
Of course, I know that you and I both agree that voting discrimination and intimidation is wrong — no matter who initiates it and no matter who is punished by it. I also know that you and I could go round making charge and counter-charge of bad acting by Republicans and Democrats.
That’s pointless in a blog like this because your fellow travelers wouldn’t believe me and my fellow travelers wouldn’t believe you.
The other thing that I you and I can agree on is that you are a committed, partisan conservative who does not come to this “whistle blower” attack on President Obama with clean hands. As a founder of the Univ. of South Carolina Law School’s Federalist Society (the most important legal group for conservative judicial activism) and as a committed supporter of Pat Buchanan’s presidential campaigns, it makes complete sense that you have a bone to pick with the Democratic majority in Washington.
So, my friend, congratulations on lighting a fire for your cause in this hyper-partisan time and becoming the hero of the day for an aggrieved conservative movement — a movement which was known in William F. Buckley’s day for advocating for a strong, conservative future rather than whinily trading in their beer & whiskey for weak tea and sad sack complaints of powerlessness.
Regardless, I hope you are personally well and that we can catch up soon.
Best,
Donnie
Really Donnie…’a bone to pick with the Dim majority’? Is that what this is? I was under the impression that JCA was exposing a policy of selective enforcement of federal law. You would agree that, if what he says is true, it was his moral and ethical duty to come forward, right?
“Partisanship”/schmartisanship….the truth is the truth. What say you about his credibility? Would you accuse him of embellishing the facts? Of intentionally deceiving or misleading? Would you propose that anything he has said (much of it testified to under oath) is a lie?
As JCA’s ‘law school friend’, I must say I am eager to hear your first hand opinion of the contents of his character. We know he is conservative, tell us something we don’t know, por favor.
Thanks in advance.
FM
btw….”whinily trading in their beer & whiskey for weak tea and sad sack complaints of powerlessness”
Very classy indeed. I wonder why these are “hyper-partisan times”….
Wow, you sound like quite a friend to have! “Clean hands”? Since when does asserting a judicial philosophy openly and honestly make one deceptive?
And speak only for yourself and only regarding the mindset of your own “fellow travelers” (as I said, you sound like quite a friend). When I hear an argument, as opposed to an anonymous, ad hominem, blanket attack, I have no problem engaging it.
But you didn’t make any argument here. Surely, if you went to law school, you should know that you’re just leaking presumptions all over the page. Creepy.
When I worked in New Jersey in the late 70′s there was a law suit against the affirmative action section of the state by an Asian who said that the staff, all black, had discriminated against her. They claimed, she said, that affirmative action only applied to blacks. She won the case.
And now this, Palestinians are raping American women who come to help them!!!!
Bet you didn’t read about that in the NY Times.

Thanks for having the courage to bring up this nasty bit, Mr. Adams. I’ve heard repeatedly from the Obamaites that this really is small potatoes and of no consequence, but I believe otherwise. Obviously, this “transparent” regime is going to fight tooth and nail to quash the issue. My question is will others, Congressmen, Senators etc. take up the matter and can they force Holder and company to come clean on the matter?
I am a reporter with the Greeley Gazette, I would very much like to interview you regarding what hapened in the DOJ with the new black pantehr case. I can be reached at jackminor@comcast.net please let me know how and when I would be able to talk with you.
Thanks,
Jack Minor
You needn’t worry, folks! Any moment, now, buses and cars filled with idealistic young “freedom riders” will be heading out of Washington, Philadelphia, New York, Cleveland and Chicago to bring the light of freedom to dark Oxubee County, Mississippi and speak truth to the power of the racist racial majority there.
Any day, now.
this is evidence that not only is the doj corrupt but the office of the inspector general as well the following is a recorded call from the doj and then to the oig.
Actual call to the department of justice and the office of the inspector general.
The department of justice called me back on July 22 2010 and said
Operator: hi this is the civil division of the department of justice returning your phone call.
Brian: yes
Operator: so you are speaking of Robert mossy of the criminal division
Brian: I am
Operator: The civil rights division
Brian: Uh huh
Operator: ok so he is the section chief so his boss would be or his I guess his boss would be the assistant attorney general
Brian would be who I am sorry
Operator: it would be the assistant attorney general which is Thomas e Perez
Brian: yes you see I have tried Mr. Perez’s office and to report Mr. mossy for not doing his job and nobody seems to want to tell me how to get a file in front of Mr. Perez
Operator: alright if you would like to report misconduct or fraud by a department of justice employee then you would submit that complaint to the office of the inspector general and they investigate those complaints against the doj employees
Brian: I see
Operator: so if you like you could do that
Brian: I have been reading on the internet about Mr. Adams comments of them not prosecuting cases the department of justice and it was Mr. Perez making those comments so I would like to get this file in front of him and the response that I have received from the department of justice as evidence e that they are not and I want charges filed against these folks for not doing their job.
Operator: alrighty then the inspector’s generals would be the office that handles that sort of thing
Brian ok
Operator: Would you like the contact information for the oig?
Brian: I have already sent them a copy of the file I will have to send them a copy of the response letter but do you have their phone number?
Operator: there a couple I can give you one is the hotline number and the other is the office number which would you like?

Purdue: huh
Brian: when I try to call from my regular cell phone
Purdue: how about online did you try going online do they have a complaint a link or anything
Brian: no no I haven’t tried online
Purdue: you might want to take a look there that might be another avenue see if you get a response there
Brian: I don’t mean sound short with you but I haven’t spoken with my children for two years now because of trying to expose this stuff. And I am getting very frustrated with this whole process now I have gone through every legal avenue you folks are the next step
Purdue: what do you mean you folks?
Brian: I’m sorry
Purdue: what do you mean you folks?
Brian: the office of the inspector general is the next step.
Purdue: ok uh and what’s the issue were dealing with
Brian: we are dealing with the department of justice refusing to prosecute a case. I’ve given
Purdue: when you say the department of justice are you referring to a specific us attorney’s office
Brian: I am speaking about the civil rights division the criminal section
Purdue: civil rights division yeh um well you know they have a mission a statement and I don’t have any jurisdiction in telling them what they can open on and what they shouldn’t open on
Brian: well that’s fine but you are the ones who investigate fraud or abuse of power by them right?
Purdue: well no no we don’t that’s not quite accurate there um we we investigate waste fraud and abuse ah involving or within the department of justice
Brian: and that’s what this is abuse
Purdue: well tell me what the abuse is
Brian: the abuse is I gave them two other cases that were exactly the same as mine and they did not address any of the concerns that I asked them to address instead they tried to put it back off on my divorce and it has nothing to with the divorce
Purdue: ok um hey look I honestly we this agency doesn’t have jurisdiction in telling the civil rights division or the criminal division what they should open on or not we don’t
Brian: but you do investigate abuse by them correct
Purude: not by them if there was a supervisor in that agency abusing a lower echelon employee we would investigate that.
Brian: I see but if there abusing their power and discriminating against me you wouldn’t investigate that?
Purdue: no and actually if your being discriminated against um
Brian: well that was Mr. Adams claims that they discriminate against white people well
Purdue: I don’t know Mr. Adams I am sorry
Brian: he used to work for that voter fraud department or voting department or whatever I want to file a claim against them and have you folks investigate them can you do that?
Purdue: nope I can’t cause it’s not it doesn’t fall within our jurisdiction or our threshold
Brian: well Mr. Purdue this is all part of a whistleblowers case and I want you to know I am recording this call and these calls are going to be made public.
