FOXNews.com - Ex-Official Accuses Justice Department of Racial Bias in Black Panther Case

From the article: "The Bush Justice Department brought the first case against three members of the group, accusing them in a civil complaint of violating the Voter Rights Act. The Obama administration initially pursued the case, winning a default judgment in federal court in April 2009 when the Black Panther members did not appear in court. But then the administration moved to dismiss the charges the following month after getting one of the New Black Panther members to agree to not carry a "deadly weapon" near a polling place until 2012."

The Obama Admin. was absolutely wrong to drop this case.
