They're Thugs, But it's OK, They're Obama's Thugs

Remember the scene at that Philadelphia polling station in November 2008?
From today's Washington Times:

The undisputed facts on Election Day 2008:


Two members of the New Black Panther Party, wearing black berets, black combat boots, black dress shirts and black jackets with military-style markings, were videotaped at a Philadelphia polling place as one brandished a 2-foot-long nightstick. Multiple witnesses complained that they felt intimidated, and several filed affidavits attesting as much. One witness said that one Black Panther told a white man, "Cracker, you are about to be ruled by a black man." A Justice Department memo also says that a black couple, both Republican poll watchers, told authorities they were concerned for their safety when leaving the polling place at day's end because the Black Panthers accused them of being "race traitors." 

...and later...


The New Black Panther Party has been identified as a "hate group" even by left-wing organizations and also has been denounced by the remnants of the original Black Panther Party. Yet at one point in 2008, the official Obama campaign Web site proudly featured a Web page highlighting the New Black Panther Party endorsement. One of the Black Panthers originally charged in the voter-intimidation case, Mr. Jackson, was an elected member of Philadelphia's 14th Ward Democratic Committee and was credentialed to be an official Democratic Party poll watcher. The case against him was dropped just four days before municipal elections in Philadelphia - just in time for him again to serve as an official Democratic poll watcher. 

All attempts to bring these thugs to justice apparently were quashed by Obama political appointees.


This smells of Argentina in the 1940's, and Obama increasingly looks and smells like Juan Peron. That country has yet to recover from Peronism.

OldSouth's concerns about today's Massachusetts election, and violence at that polls this fall, are not unfounded. The Obama campaign, and the White House, are complicit with this thuggery.

But that's OK, 'cuz they're thuggin' for HopeAndChange, right?

Is this what Dr. King devoted his life's work for?  Anyone out there who decried the use of dogs and batons against the Selma marchers willing to speak up against Obama's thugs?

(Sound of crickets chirping...)
