NC: A Court Smacks Down Obama’s DOJ

Via Iver

 

Dated

The recently concluded federal trial over North Carolina’s election rules proved one thing beyond a reasonable doubt: The Obama administration and its partisan, big-money, racial-interest-group allies will stop at nothing to win elections. And using the courts to change election rules is a key part of their strategy.

That was clearly evident in the federal courtroom in Winston-Salem. The plaintiffs, including the Justice Department, challenged a number of election reforms implemented in 2013 that were designed to reduce the cost and complexity of running elections and make it harder to commit voter fraud.

The administration pushed a novel legal argument. In its telling, if a change in election rules might statistically affect blacks more than whites, it constitutes illegal discrimination.

  1. The comments section of this article are a glowing example of why the GOP is ALWAYS going to be behind the curve on this stuff. They are faced with an opposition party that will stop at nothing to win and they STILL get in a huff when that other party refuses to play fair.
    I do take exception with one part of that article and that is the calling for a top to bottom review of the "civil rights" section of the DOJ and the cleaning house of the infected elements. WRONG: eliminate funding of said section and give everyone there their walking papers. If it can be shown that anyone there acted contrary to stated laws while employed there, put them on trial and then send 'em away for the next fifteen years. A top to bottom review will do nothing to prevent this happening again in the future when the statists control the house again. If said section were eliminated, that's one less organ of the state that they can screw the average person with.

  3. Since when as this administration or it's accomplices ever demonstrated that they gave a damn about the law, judicial opinion or anything else UNLESS it doing so
    helps their agenda. Power is ultimately force. The courts have NO force to impose
    any rulings they make. That is the job of the executive branch....which is corrupt.
    Don't expect one part of the administration to force another part to obey the law....
    isn't going to happen. And any individual in any such agency that tries will find that
    they are unemployed at a speed that will take their breath away.
