Did Eric Holder Commit Perjury in Black Panther Voter Intimidation Case?

Did Eric Holder commit perjury in Black Panther voter intimidation case? New documents revealed?

Judicial Watch secured the documents pursuant to a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) lawsuit:

The documents reveal that political appointees within DOJ were conferring about the status and resolution of the New Black Panther Party case in the days preceding the DOJ’s dismissal of claims in that case, which would appear to contradict Assistant Attorney General Perez’s testimony that political leadership was not involved in that decision. Surely the public has an interest in documents that cast doubt on the accuracy of government officials’ representations regarding the possible politicization of agency decision-making.

On March 1, 2011, Holder testified before the House Appropriations Subcommittee on Commerce, Justice, Science and Related Agencies and said,

The decisions made in the New Black Panther Party case were made by career attorneys in the department. And beyond that, you know, if we’re going to look at the record, let’s look at it in its totality.”

The Rise And Fall Of Welfare Reform. An attack ad released by Obama isn’t Working.com.

In 1996, President Bill Clinton signed bipartisan legislation that reformed welfare. Democrats from Carl Levin to John Kerry, and even Joe Biden supported the bipartisan reforms. President Obama, on the other hand, has been a consistent opponent of the law and recently dismantled the historic bill. When it comes to welfare reform, President Obama is out of step with the country, his party, and even his own Vice President.

July 12 Obama gutted welfare reform by eliminating work requirements from federal regulations. Click Here
