WTF - today's Republic(an) has a 3 page story about the Black Panther

Edited on Sun Oct-24-10 11:28 AM by jillan

voter intimidation. Why? This is an incident that happened 2 years ago in another state. I haven't read the whole thing yet but it's about how the justice dept did nothing. Why?

In the editorial section, Robb gives awards to the candidates. Brewer is the only one who got a positive reward from him.

I AM SICK of it! The Republic needs competition.

1. I'm not sure if the facts are true or what the evidence is

The Bush administration was the one that initiated the case shortly before he left office and it was the Obama DOJ that dropped it months later. The Justice Department is currently being investigated by the United States Commission on Civil Rights is investigating the handling of the case. I'm not sure when that investigation concludes but if I find it and run into you I will let you know. :)

The Republicans are polarizing this issue so much and have been for months. They are using to give the false impression that the President favors black people over white people, it's sick.
