A default judgment against the New Black Pather Party (NBPP) in connection with a case of voter intimidation on Election Day, November 4, 2008 was dismissed by the U.S. Justice Department. The U.S. Commission of Civil Rights is demanding to know why this action was taken.
NBPP members were caught on film blocking access to the polls and physically and verbally intimidating voters, actually wielding a nightstick in front of voters and poll watchers. Evidence was gathered by Justice Department lawyers, obtained the affidavit of former civil rights advocate Bartle Bull, and a complaint. The defendants did not respond and the court invited the Justice Department to file a default judgement. but the Justice Department withdrew from the case.
What the Obama Justice Department did was to block action against a group that has been called a racist, anti-semitic hate group. Its members include an Obama poll-watcher and city democratic official who used epithets and physical intimidation to keep away voter from a polling place in Philadelphia.
The Obama Justice Department has been accused of rubber stamping unconstitutional legislation, failing to protect the voting rights of American servicemen, and remaining silent about a liberal black political boss in Mississippi who prevented voters from casting ballots and engaged in vote fraud. It also blocked Georgia's attempt to prevent illegal aliens from voting by requiring voter ID.
