Challenging the Voter Purge

This week, Greg Palast, the author of "The Best Democracy Money Can Buy" and Jessie Jackson from Rainbow Push have gone to Washington, DC to ask the Civil Rights Commission to demand the Justice Department look into the voter purge and launch a criminal investigation. Whether or not the Justice department will comply remains to be seen.
It is about time someone has demanded a criminal investigation. I guess they were waiting until it was too late to get Al Gore in the White House.(sigh..I know)
The "purge" has gotten a bit more attention as of late since it has been revealed that Hispanic voters were not targeted in the purge as were African Americans. Hispanic voters in Florida are more likely to vote Republican. Back in 2002, no one ever talked about the "purge." It was all about chads. "Oh those Democrats just don't know how to vote," some said. The British knew, but most Americans were left in the dark. They swallowed the lie that "Earth in the Balance's" Al Gore lost by 537 votes fair and square. They accepted the Supreme Court's decision stopping the recount; a decision with no precedent and a decision most legal scholars feel has no merit. Al Gore even had to accept it..or go nuts.
In this political climate, I do not see the Justice Department expressing any interest in persuing this. It is not in their political interest to do so. The Justice Department used to act independently of partisan politics. Not so now.
