Document drop: Witness affidavit in NBPP voter bullying case
Yesterday, I reported on the Obama DOJ’s smelly decision to drop default judgments against two New Black Panther Party thugs in the Philly voter intimidation case. Election Journal, which originally broke the story on Election Day last fall, posted on the decision the day before. The Washington Times follows up today with an “exclusive” on the story.
Project 21’s Mychal Massie wants an investigation: “From all accounts, this was a clear-cut violation of peoples’ right to vote without fear and intimidation, but the Obama Administration appears to be trying to sweep it under the rug,” said Massie. “After all of the allegations about the Bush Administration politicizing the Justice Department, this smacks of either extreme ignorance or extreme hubris on the part of their successors. Whatever the case, an independent investigation is needed to get to the bottom of what’s going on over there.”
I’ve obtained the full affidavit of one of the eyewitnesses to the NBPP’s thuggery. Bartle Bull was a civil rights lawyer and activist in the 1960s. You can download the full affidavit PDF here.

Yeah. Sure.
[half-]black, let’s be accurate.
So when Obama promised hope and change, he meant hope for thugs, with the change being that they would not be prosecuted under his administration.
Why ‘cracker’? My forebears were just as downtrodden as anyone. We never ‘cracked’ anyone.
The “New” Black Panthers are part and parcel of the donks’ campaign to turn this country from a Republic into a one-party dictatorship, which is why the donk “Justice” (for whom?) Department will not prosecute them.
The first wave is for “community organizers” like ACORN to make such a mockery of the electoral system as to persuade most American voters to just throw up their hands in frustration and not even bother going to the polls.
The second wave is where the gangstas come in: to physically intimidate anyone who still wants to make a go of casting a non-donk vote after the first wave.
How do I know this? Simple: just imagine the lowest, ugliest, worst motivations and behaviors on the part of the donkey party, and you really can’t miss.

Cornyn took today to condemn RUSH and NEWT.
Steele took the same message…leave Latina alone.
Call Steele today and ask that he condemn Holder concerning ACORN and this Black Panther case.

The website still looks like 1980, the lady said it was under construction…..these people are paid thousands of dollars and they still don’t have a relevant website.
TANCREDO FOR RNC HEAD
Well, it saved the Administration the trouble of pardoning them.
“You are about to be ruled by the black man, cracker.”
Isn’t that what this is really all about? Black’s with an inferiority complex. Let’s face it, if you’re a gang banger thug like the black panthers you are already low life scum. You have little hope in life.
But the truth is I’m not better than them because I’m white. I’m better than them because I made an effort in life to be better. I’m better than them because I have more integrity. I’m better than them because I give a damn about my family and this country. I’m better than them because I work for what I want and I’m not waiting for a handout.
What they fail to realize is they will never be better than me. They can never rule over me. Their anger and hatred won’t elevate them. No matter how much the socialist democrates hand them they will always waste it. They are losers in life. That is their choice so it becomes their destiny.
Since the Dems want to tax everything else, why not a poll tax? Only makes sense now that the intimidation tactics from Jim Crow and earlier they have used as a rallying cry for decades now seem to be perfectly acceptable for them to use.
When Democrats use fraud and intimidation, it’s OK. God help anyone else.
“Of course we will have Fascism in America.. but we will call it Democracy.” – Senator Huey Long (D – La.)
ThatSamIAm,
Well said!
Not only has it started, it’s well on its way. Elections in America are getting to be like those in third world countries: fraud, corruption, intimidation, results in question.
WE should all sign up to be election observers. The more of us there are out there looking over shoulders, the less sh*t they can get away with.
The ultimate aim of the donks is to turn American politics into the equivalent of a Harlem Globetrotters exhibition: nobody goes to such a spectacle expecting a real game but rather a display of ball-handling wizardry and trick shots against a confused, befuddled and hapless opposing team.
In their ideal notion of a “two-party system,” the donkey party gets to play the part of the Globetrotters and the Republicans get to play the part of the “Washington Senators” — whose sole purpose is to make the Globetrotters look good by losing “gracefully.”
The only difference is, if you’re playing against the “Donkey Globetrotters” and actually try to win, they’ll call in a bunch of thugs from the stands to run onto the court and threaten you with violence.
I was willing to give Obama some distance from the election day intimidation crime. Now, he owns it.
The Obama Thugocracy continues.
Chicago politics at its finest: “Vote early and vote often – and do what we say, and nobody will get hurt(too much).”
I wish someone thug thizzler had approached me in that manner.
Should Holder choose to go after the Bush lawyers who wrote the so called torture memos, this incident appears to be one of many that could be used to go after Holder in the future. What goes around comes around…
Slightly ot, but it’s something that has bothered me every time I see the “crest” of the new black panther party. Why the picture of Africa? Only two things make sense to me.
One, the think Africa is somehow superior to the United States. If so, and I know it’s cliche, but why are they still here? If I think Texas is superior to Arkansas, I move to Texas. If I think Austrailia is superior to the United States, I move. If a person is unhappy with where they are and think someplace else offers them a better chance to fulfill their dreams, it’s human nature to move there. Right?
If you are a person that thinks someplace else is better than where you are, yet you refuse to move there, you’re either lazy or a coward.
The other alternative is that they know Africa is not superior to the United States. But in spite of that they want to remake the United States into Africa. I wonder if their vision comes complete with the famine, pestilence, and tribal wars and slavery that is Africa?
Either way, they are either cowards, liars, or to lazy to move where they think they can have a better life. Be it to another state or another continent.
Guess that makes me a racist though. Oh well. Don’t much care anymore.
*2010 is the key year folks; Those that voted against P-BO can continue to say they saw this coming; The many millions that were misled/fooled are waking up and realize they don’t want their country transformed into another Kenya, which is what they are attempting to do; All Americans should reject this, stay engaged, and take the country back; Let P-BO and the usual suspects be the only ones left playing the race card, which is truly Un-American.
Twofoot, some interesting tidbits for you:
Hey Chief, wonder when black panther season opens? Just sayin…
…only if the 2010 elections are honest.
It is mind boggling the amount of fraud that occurred in the 2008 elections. ACORN, credit card fraud, voter intimidation, etc.
2010 only offers hope if things change enough for us to expect honest, fair elections.
With ACORN being funded with our tax dollars, do you really expect things to get better?
With Obama letting voter intimidation go unpunished, do you really expect things to get better?
2′ – if they come to my door, open season starts now.
twofoot–I wondered sort of the same thing, but my thought was ‘why the entire African continent?’ There are a lot of countries there, and most are not too friendly with folks that are of a different faction/tribe/ethnicity/dialect etc etc etc.
Sometimes, in the case of Rwanda, it was with regard to the lightness of one’s skin/complexion.
What a strange world…
So much for “no more apologies for being right”
That took what? A week?
I like their motto. I will copy it.

They deserve the stupid party label. Steele? I figured from the start he would pander at every turn. I am surprised at Cornyn though. Appears the gop has decided to side with Powell on the bigger tent theory. If they had a brain they would frame the discussion around her past actions and qualifications, period. If questioning credentials riles up a bunch of hispanics, then I have to beleive those same hispanics are race conscious first and Americans second (if that). The GOP will never win the pandering contest against the dems. Time to tell it like it is and quit letting PC dictate the terms of the debate. Let the chips fall where they may. Haven’t we proven appeasement never works?
It’s word “ruled” that has me up in arms, and I do mean ARMS!
cracker? would that be wheat thins, ritz, goldfish, or maybe triscuits??
I agree #30….
I take GREAT OFFENSE to the term “cracker”. I much prefer: “You are about to be ruled by the black man, honky.”
But…but, THE ONE has ushered in the post-racial America…
I’m suffering from cognitive dissonance…
I’m retiring to my fainting couch…
You know, I looked at the picture of those two guys on the other Black Panther thread, and I thought to myself, “they can’t have released that teenage Somali pirate on a work release program yet, can they?”
With a total accounting of the current national situation and how we got here, and where we’re headed, is the Obama cabal so confident of a permanent liberal majority that the players in this ongoing Greek tragedy have no fear of ever finding their own comeuppance?
Perhaps the Obama administration just needed to keep all avenues of approach open for next election seeing as there is more and more coming out about ACORN.
wow, who’d thunk it?
Since the Donks are legitimizing racism once again, how long before a backlash occurs and an all out race war is sparked?
These people sure don’t act like as magnanimous as they’ve always claimed they’d act if put into places of power.
Funny. Does that make them and us …human?
And all this time I thought we whites were inhuman.
Allah Akbar,Crackers.

Excerpt from current Urban Dictionary definition #3 for cracker:
Imagine two white supremecists, one with a night stick, in front of a voting precinct, and one of them says to a black observer,
And then McCain wins the election and has his DOJ drop the already won case against these white supremecists.
How do you think that would go down?
The reality is that this situation is NO DIFFERENT.
It’s only the skin color that has been reversed.

“Cracker” is an old English word meaning “boaster” or “braggert.” Nothing to do with slavery – it was used in Britain before being imported here.
The 18th century Scotch-Irish frontiersmen were a braggadocious lot, and the name seems to have become synonymous with what we would call a “redneck” (originally an Englush word for a religious dissenter, BTW) by the late 19th century – Frederick Remington uses it to refer to backcountry Floridian whites in an essay of his.
Yup, that’s encouraging. Here’s one cracker who can hardly wait.
Look where the black man has taken South Africa thus far.

I respectfully disagree.
I don’t question what it meant in Britain in the 18th century.
But what it means today is best represented by which definitions get the most “votes” at Urban Dictionary.
Meanings of words vary over time and location. A “fag” in Great Britain is a cigarette. That’s not what it means here in the U.S.
To quote Rush, “Right on right on!”
O’reilly had Bartle Bull on his show tonight. Bill seemed to me to downplay what Bartle had to say.
I was glad to hear Bartle quote the cracker statement as BO did not.Bill it appeared to me thought it wasn’t a huge issue.
If I saw guys like that standing where I voted I would DAMNED sure think it was INTIMIDATION.What the heck else could it be?
When Bill tries to sugar coat what they are doing I just wonder if he can really be that DUMB! Only thing that makes sense to me is for the ratings. He can’t be that blind to the facts.
We have entered the rule of man and abandoned the rule of law some time in the past several years. Some laws are enforced, other unpopular ones are ignored. The victor decides which laws will be applied, and which history to be written, which truth to go by, and which people to reward or pay off for the power and (quickly devaluing) purse strings.
We’ll end up in a bloody conflict from within or from without as a result from this hiatus from reality. I just hope I’ve got a team to fight on, and that I’ll somewhat measure up to those who gave their lives for a more deserving country and citizenry.
Does anyone get the feeling we are paying reparations by default???
Never mind Acorns underhanded voter fraud, here we have outright intimidation. Fully supported by the Democrats I might add.
It’s the carpetbaggers all over again.

Thank you both. I appreciate what you said.
It is quite shocking when you turn it around. It’s amazing that we are allowing this blatant racism and voter intimidation to go unpunished (and therefore rewarded).
Obama’s racism is likewise blatant in this DOJ action.
“…white man’s greed…”
Don’t anyone tell me Obama doesn’t agree with Jeremiah Wright.
“Black Liberation Theology” is blatantly racist.

When can we take this country back from the morons? I cant wait 3-1/2 years.
Rioting. From coast to coast, led by Al “this ain’t my suit” Sharpton and Jizzy Jackson, Maxine Waters, et. al.
Exactly.
A very close friend of mine was working in downtown L.A. at the time of the Rodney King riots, and she had to drive through part of that to get to the freeway. One thug even tried to block her access to the freeway. She put the car in neutral, gunned the engine as a warning, and then put it in gear. He got out of the way and she didn’t stop. If she had, she might have ended up like that truck driver that got beaten.
There is no question that if white supremacists were found guilty of saying
and then were let off by a white President, there would be massive riots.
But when the situation is reversed and a half-black Usurper-in-Chief does it, we’re supposed to just accept it.
Kind of like this…
The Obamas in their own words.
O’Reilly is turning into a leftie. That is the only thing I can come up with. He has really great guests on and never lets them complete their thoughts. He not only interrupts tham, but he “puts down” what they say and actually blows them off…and I’m talking about people like Laura Ingraham and Glenn Beck. He’d better be careful, as I think he is losing viewers. He thinks he is king of the hill, but that can change. Kinda like Odumbo there in DC. Ego, power, ratings, oh how the mighty can fall if they get too full of themselves!!
I was thinking more along the line of Pandering Wimp but the man does not impress.
I just posted this on the ACORN thread by mistake. So I will repeat it here, where it belongs! That Black Panther intimidation tactic was scary…but, they really couldn’t do anything to anyone. All they could do is stand there and look mean. They were in a public place with people coming and going. So what were they going to do? If they try this again, and it is a public place, are we going to allow them to get away with it? Or will be stand up to them? I know these are brave-sounding words, but I guarantee it…if this happens to me, I WILL NOT BE INTIMIDATED. That cracker remark was just meant to be answered. Like, “What did you just say? No one rules me…No one! The President serves US, we elect him and he is our servant.” I would also say something about the “cracker” comment…perhaps call the moron a racist or something. What could he do…hit me with that stick? Maybe. But the lawsuit I would bring would be worth it.
I’ve never liked O’Reilly. Subjective reasons count, and he’s never impressed me or appealed to me in the least. He can have interesting things to say, though.
I guess O’Reilly isn’t really a “leftie”, but AZ, you are right…he panders to the left. I do like his investigations and nailing the bleeding heart judges, etc. But he needs to tone down that incredible ego of his!
It is an awesome day here in Bloomington, Minnesota! Has been all week. We need rain really badly and hopefully will get some tomorrow. But for now…paradise. This makes winter worth the hassle!! Don’t let that get out…I don’t want too many people to know the secret, that this is a beautiful place to live, if you can just avoid the blue areas. Now, I am off to work in my garden. Have a great weekend everyone!
I find Mr Bull’s declaration very interesting.
Here’s a lawyer who worker on civil rights cases regarding voter intimidation back during the Civil Rights bill, and he makes this statement:
I heard stories about uniformed Miami PD doing this, when I lived in Florida. When asked to provide proof, such as photos, tape recordings, video tapes (It was 2000-2004, so video cameras were pretty prevalent), no one could show anything.
I even offered to spend a day down at a controversial polling place with those who were making the claim, and just watching. No takers.
Here, we have two men on video. Police arrived and determined a need to detain them. We have sworn testimony, from a lawyer who happens to have 40+ years experience in such matters.
And the Justice Department drops the case?
I think we are owed a full explanation, or at the very least, the immediate resignation of AG Holder.
BTW-
Laugh of the day right from the DOJ website, titled “100 Day Progress Report”
Great fiction writers at DOJ…!!!!
Two different issues here. 1st, it’s meaning today, which I do not dispute.
2nd, the etymology, which is what I was addressing. The Urban dictionary gives a false history of the word. For that, try the Oxford English Dictionary. I would give you a quote, but I do not have access to it at this time.
Spacycakes wanted to know why s/he was called a “cracker” without slave-owning ancestors – I replied that the origin of the word has nothing to do with slavery. I could also add that the etymology is of more than academic interest, because it was a word widely applied to poor whites not too long ago. By falsely linking it to slavery, the race-baiters reinforces the notion that all whites directly participated in the subjugation of all blacks, thereby helping justify reprisals on whites as a group.
Too true. It is so easy to see that they COULD use this to their advantage. Oppose the heck out of it on PRINCIPLES. Use it to define and diminish barack and the dims and their way of doing things.
Done right they could help themselves and sleep at night. The way they are doing it will give the dims a pass and piss of their constituents.
If it wasn’t so painful for us all I would enjoy seeing them learn from their mistakes, eventually. But we are paying to high a price for the GOP’s incompetence.
Well, since The B.O. is just a typical brain-dead socialist, the words Hope and Change can mean whatever he wants. That’s the beauty of open-ended words. Just like all socialists use. The knuckle-draggers think they mean “Hope for the future because he’s going to Change the country toward freedom.” Because they believed President Bush was evil.
The B.O. knows those words are open ended. It’s very easy for him to say, “Well you elected me because I said Hope and Change. Now I get to decide what they mean.” And that meaning will be different every day.
Ever notice how The B.O. never uses words like freedom, liberty, and opportunity? You know, the values that made this country great?
Government brings in radical associates to “quell violence” of peaceful gatherings. Attacks ensue and some people make use of their God-given right to defend themselves. Martial law ensues. No election in 2010.
Barring being able to create such a scenario, the left has Acorn tucked safely in place, 2010 census data is “somehow” replete with non-existent addresses, dead people and others and if by some miracle there still is an election in 2010, the results will be mysteriously skewed as well.
Sounds like a conspiracy theory to me. That could never happen in America.
And then we woke up!?
Only when it is too late will these people, and Acorn, find out that they were nothing more than “useful idiots” and themselves forgotten when their usefulness ends. They expect some new social order coming; instead they may find themselves at the “bottom of the barrel”. History always repeats itself. They may be viewed, in the future, as a threat to the democrats and Obama’s quest for total power.
Any argument about “Cracker” not being a racist term is foolish. “Cracker”, in the past, had a different meaning (usually someone from South Georgia or North Florida and was interchangeable with “Country Boy”). Atlanta had a minor league baseball team called the “Crackers” for years.
However, the fellow in this film is using the modern meaning of the word. It is now a racial slang to mean “White Person”. It’s current meaning is just as degrading as any slur meant for any ethnicity. No regard or merit should be given to any past use of the word.
“Queer” used to mean strange and “Gay” meant happy.. Until they became slurs.
Indeed. The same process has played out multiple times in countries all over the world. The “useful idiots” are some of the first to be killed once the communists take full control.
Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov (a.k.a. Tomas Schuman) explains it very well.
A default judgment is equivalent to a favorable verdict after trial. Why sue someone if you are not intent on winning that case??? Questions must be asked and answered; this one smells to high heaven. Since the dismissal is “without prejudice”, the government can bring the action again, any time up until the statute of limitations expires.
Can you imagine if the KKK did this at a polling place, the Bush AG took a default judgment and then dismissed the case???? There would be 3 inch high headlines in every newspaper, and the lead story on every msm outlet in the Country. I am sick TO HERE of these bullsh*t double standards.
