Wow! You got me on that one.

I guess the only explanation is that Obama supports the black panther movement, all of the handful of them.

Or maybe it means that he's such a brother that any black person will never have to face justice.

Or maybe he's counting on voter intimidation to get him reelected, from whatever source.

Or maybe he's just a thug and doesn't see anything wrong with a couple of guys acting tough near a voting booth.

But then I think, hey, this Adams guy was a political appointee to the justice department in the Bush/Cheney heyday and he's making a living feeding raw meat to Limbaugh and people like you, and the justice department had an internal investigation and concluded that there was no coverup and that the case was difficult because they couldn't find anyone who would substantiate that there was, in fact, an intimidated voter.

So I conclude that the problem isn't that Obama supports the black panther movement, or voter intimidation, or the violation of laws by black people. Those are ideas that are just too silly for rational thinker to entertain. So that leaves me to conclude that there were several complex legal issues involved in a minor case that posed no real threat to the integrity of our elections and someone with good sense said "let's slap a fine on the guy acting like an idiot and move on".

The other conclusion I reach is that anyone buying into this GREAT BIG INJUSTICE needs to step back and get a life cause they are way off the rational reservation. Ed
