THE ONE DECREES: SOME HATE CRIMES ARE O.K.

Chairman Zero rightly condemned the Holocaust museum gunman as the media inaccurately identified him as a conservative. Good chance to lie about this hateful man's politics and further demonize your enemies there, Jugears! But hate coming from muslims and Americans of African descent?

Eric Eversole at Pajamas Media:
Take, for example, the president’s recent failure to denounce the anti-Semitic rant by his long-term spiritual advisor, Reverend Jeremiah Wright. On the day before the shooting, a reporter in Hampton Roads, Virginia, recorded Reverend Wright making numerous anti-Semitic comments, including attacks on the president’s closest advisors, Rahm Emanuel and David Axelrod. Reverend Wright blamed “them Jews” for not letting President Obama speak with him. He further asserted that President Obama had compromised his beliefs and the “fiber of his being” for the “Jewish vote” and Jewish lobbying groups....

Yet, when the White House was asked to comment on Reverend Wright’s remarks — on the same day President Obama asked for vigilance — the president gave no comment or denunciation. ...

President Obama also was silent three weeks ago when authorities uncovered a plot by four jailhouse Muslim converts to blow up a synagogue in New York City. According to authorities, the four men attempted to acquire plastic explosives and a stinger missile for the sole purpose of killing Jews. There is no doubt that the hate motivating these four Muslim converts is no different or less dangerous than the hate of a neo-Nazi. However, unlike the Holocaust Museum killing, neither the president nor his administration called for vigilance against Islamic extremism.

Why not? ...

And what about the free pass that the Obama administration gave to the New Black Panther Party three weeks ago? ...

As part of a nationwide effort, the New Black Panther Party sent two members to a Philadelphia polling place on Election Day. The two members were videotaped in front of a polling place wearing paramilitary clothing, black berets, combat boots, and at least one carried a nightstick in his hand. Both of them made racially derogatory comments, threats, and gestures to would-be voters and poll workers.

As a result of the conduct, the Voting Section of the Department of Justice filed a voter intimidation lawsuit to permanently enjoin the New Black Panther Party, as well as three members, from future acts of intimidation. The case was a slam dunk. Not only had the conduct been videotaped, the New Black Panther Party and its members refused to answer the complaint — that is, by legal standards, they were in default and were deemed to have admitted everything in the complaint. As well known civil rights attorney Bull Bartle noted, “It would qualify as the most blatant form of voter intimidation I have encountered in my life in political campaigns in many states, even going back to the work I did in Mississippi in the 1960s.”

The president’s political appointees at the Department of Justice dismissed the case against the New Black Panther Party.

See any pattern here?

According the the mainstream left, some racism and bigotry is just fine. Some is not. Depends on whether or not you're on their list.
