The Attorney General of the United States of America

Eric Holder

Did U.S. Attorney General Secretly Counsel Land?

The affidavit of Mr. Robert D. Douglas, dated Sept. 26, sworn before Mr. Lamar Rozier, notary public in the state of Georgia, Bacon County, submitted in support of Attorney Orly Taitz’s latest Motion of Recusal against Judge Clay D. Land.

His affidavit reads as follows:

BEFORE ME, the undersigned Notary, Lamar Rozier

on this 26th day of September, 2009, personally appeared Robert D. Douglas, known to me to be a credible person and of lawful age, who being by me first duly shown on his oath deposes and says:

On the day of he hearing for Major Stephan Cook before Federal Judge Clay D. Land, Columbus, Ga., my wife, my wife’s sister, her husband and I had entered the little coffee shop directly across from the Court House while waiting for the doors to open to the public. I was sitting in the small seating area, set aside for their customers, while facing and looking directly at the entrance to the shop. All persons entering had to pass withing 8-10 feet from where I was sitting.

I looked up and immediately recognized an individual entering and approaching the serving counter, due to his well known TV displayed distinguishing features: his trim upper lip mustache, not large of stature and general olive complexion. I knew instantly it was non other than Eric Holder, the current Attorney General of the United States. I called this to the attention of those present and all agreed it appeared to be who I readily recognized. He entered unguarded, no accompanying entourage and probably thought he would not be recognized.

Red flags went up immediately in my mind and the questions remain, as yet. Why does the Attorney General of the United States need to be present in an obscure hearing well of his beaten path? Could it possible be, since Holder did not present himself in open court, he may have had a little "whisper in the ear" to a Federal Judge in order to bias his judicial vision and adhere to the President’s agenda of obstruction?

Only Judge Clay D. Land can answer those question.

Robert D. Douglas

[address redacted]

Holder’s presence is not that unbelievable, because quite contrary to the logic of their position Obama supporters have consistently shown irrational passion to defend Obama from what they claim are ridiculous charges.

Update 10/04/2009 -- 6:30 PM EDST:

Indeed, the lengths Obama’s supporters will go to deny the facts, can be seen from one comment at The Right Side of Life, where it is claimed that this affidavit, transcribed above, has not been submitted as evidence on Judge Land’s Docket. Also in the comment section of TRSOL article, there is a link to Holder’s schedule for the day, which leaves a seemingly 18 hour window between 9PM July 15th, and 3 PM, July 16th, Eastern Daylight Savings Time.

Eric Holder Meets With CAIR

Debbie Schlussel says Politico’s Josh Gerstein posted a "scoop" -- which wasn’t a scoop at all, since she broke the story seven and nine months ago. And, of course, Politico’s partner in promotion and denying proper credit where it’s due, Matt Drudge, followed suit linking to the unoriginal piece.

The story was ostensibly about Attorney General Eric Holder speaking to a group of left-wing interest groups, including CAIR, but it was mostly about how the group regularly meets with the FBI, including CAIR-Michigan Executive Director Dawud Walid (DS exclusive reporting: real name, Delano Anthony Willis, Jr., who has quite a rap sheet). This, as the story notes, violates the FBI claim they won’t meet with the extremist CAIR -– the Council on American Islamic Relations. But, hello . . ., I reported months ago that they were still meeting with each other and that the embargo/boycott/ban was bogus. Phony. A lie. A fraud. Fiction.

The FBI is still meeting with CAIR. CAIR-Michigan was still meeting with the FBI as part of a larger "dialog" group of Arabs and Muslims.

Is Holder Stonewalling New Black Panther Inquiry?

Congressman Frank Wolf (R-Va.), a Philadelphia native, and House Judiciary Committee Ranking Member, Lamar Smith (R-Texas) sent a letter, on November 10, to Attorney General Eric Holder requesting information about the Justice Department’s inquiry into the sudden and unusual dismissal of voter intimidation charges against the New Black Panther Party.

The congressmen are concerned that the Justice Department (DOJ) is using the investigation as a means to continue stonewalling Congress in this matter. It has been three months since DOJ’s Office of Professional Responsibility initiated an investigation at the request of Smith and Wolf.

Yet, despite repeated requests made during the past three months DOJ has not provided Congress with a clear explanation for why the Civil Rights Division dismissed the complaint.

According to Messrs. Smith and Wolf, "Congress and the American people must have confidence that the Department’s Voting Rights Act enforcement is free of improper political motives … it is important for Congress, in furtherance of its oversight obligations, to receive answers before the end of this year -- before we enter a political season" so that voters can be assured that voter intimidation will not be tolerated.

Justice Department attorneys filed charges in January against three individuals and the New Black Panther Party for allegedly threatening voters at a poll in Philadelphia during last November’s presidential election. The Justice Department effectively won the case when the defendants declined to appear before the court and challenge the charges.

Yet, when the Obama administration took control of the Justice Department, the case against the Democratic Party’s political ally was suddenly dropped. There were no new facts or evidence to justify the decision. The impression that politics played a role in the decision has been a source of concern for Rep. Wolf who has been a strident defender of voting rights.

Not only has Congress made unanswered inquiries into this matter, so too has the U.S. Civil Rights Commission. The Commission’s chairman, Gerald Reynolds, sent a letter on September 30 to Mr. Holder saying the responses were "overdue" and asking for "Department officials to fully cooperate" with the Commission’s investigation as required by federal law.

Mr. Reynolds noted that the Commission still has not received any of the documents they requested in their initial June inquiries. He said this information is needed because the Commission is responsible to investigate voting rights deprivations and evaluate federal enforcement of federal voting rights laws. They want to form an independent opinion about DOJ’s enforcement actions and the potential impact on future voter intimidation enforcement. It may also try "to determine whether any decisions in the case were induced or affected by improper influences."

As of this date, neither members of Congress nor members of the U.S. Civil Rights Commission have called for a special prosecutor to be appointed to investigate the matter.

ACORN and Justice Department Plot Thickens

Following the courageous expose by two young investigative journalists released on the pages of this very blog, there were widespread calls for a U.S. Department of Justice investigation into the criminal enterprise that is ACORN. One would think there would be swift, decisive action from the administration that promised to be the most transparent in history. Despite the urging of some in congress and action on the regional level, and an internal investigation into funding, terrorist sympathizer U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder refuses to appoint a special prosecutor to oversee a criminal investigation of ACORN. There’s no evidence that any internal investigation is ongoing or making any progress since a 2008 request from Indiana’s Secretary of State. Instead, Obama’s political arm is attempting to dismiss it as a "fear campaign" while ACORN insinuates that it is racist. Yes, they are still playing that card.

What’s Holder’s hold-up? One major factor of course is that ACORN serves as a taxpayer-funded Democrat army. As with unions, it behooves Democrats to ignore corruption amongst the ranks of the powerful forces that elect them. What appears on the surface to be mere political payback for a job well done is in fact much more insidious. One family’s involvement with ACORN and the Obama administration is of particular interest and elucidates the complicated web of connections and cash behind ACORN and Obama.

Meanwhile, ACORN is suing the federal government, saying that Congress violated the U.S. Constitution when it barred the group from receiving federal funds -- only in America!
