This is the part of the story that Fox and CNN aren't telling you ...

- Special Report ignored Republican Commission vice-chair Abigail Thernstrom's statement: "Forget about the New Black Panther Party case; it is very small potatoes."

- "... the legal standards that must be met to prove voter intimidation -- the charge -- are very high".

- "[N]o voters at all in the Philadelphia precinct have come forward to allege intimidation."

- Special Report failed to note that Adams' allegations are based on hearsay, not firsthand evidence

- Special Report neglected to acknowledge "former Justice Department lawyer" Adams' GOP activism

etc, etc ...

Its not that we love the government around these parts, its that the government that some people THINK that would like is as scary or scarier than what we have now.

Out of these Tea Party types of popular movements have sprung some of the worst periods in human history (and arguably some of the best). But if you aren't aware of and scared of the former guess where you are liable to end up?

This continued ranting on about some meaningless (in the large picture) black panther dude does not bode well for the type of change that your movement might bring.

Yes people are pissed off at big government and rightfully so, but lashing out blindly at whatever is an easy target is unproductive. Some deeper reasoning and education is needed to better understand where we went wrong and what might work better.

And if you ask me, the root of the problem is the dollar. If you run a nation on a crooked currency, what you get is a crooked nation practically top to bottom. Force an honest currency on the system with no free rides, no easy money, no bailouts, balanced reasonably sized government budgets, and natural consequences for mistakes and most everything else will fix itself.

IMHO

P.S. If I don't see you again, bye.
