Preview of Obama Dept of Justice

The arrogance and Stalinist tactics of Barack Hussein Obama and his campaign are eye opening.

From The Foundry:

Obama Moves to Silence All ACORN Critics

Want a preview of what an Obama Department of Justice would look like? Look no further than Obama for America General Counsel Bob Bauer’s letter to Attorney General Michael Mukasey from last Friday. Bauer wants the Special Prosecutor investigating the U.S. Attorney firings to start investigating John McCain, Sarah Palin, and other Republicans including Sen. George Voinovich (R-OH) and Rep. Paul Ryan (R-WI). Their crime? Calling on our nation’s law enforcement officers to investigate wide spread reports of voter fraud. Bauer writes:

As Election Day approaches – just as in 2004 and 2006 – Republican Party officials and operatives nationwide, including the candidates themselves, are fomenting specious vote fraud allegations, and there are distorting indications of official involvement or collusion.
…
Accordingly, I call on you and Special Prosecutor Dannehy to expand her investigation to include these matters, all of them entirely consistent with the pattern of misconduct already within her charge.

Heritage fellow Hans von Spakovsky replies:

The Obama campaign’s Stalinist-style demand that a special prosecutor at the Department of Justice criminally prosecute any candidates, party officials or congressmen who discussed their concerns over voter fraud is an outrageous attempt to use the power of the federal government to intimidate and persecute political opponents. It is almost as if Senator Obama wants to reinstitute the Alien and Sedition Acts and it brings into sharp focus the issue of whether he understands the protections of the First Amendment and the importance of fair and secure elections.

I guess this is the change Obama has in mind!
