WT, hope you voted for Clyde Jones and Lucy Baxley.

"Time to throw that bum Chambliss out! "

He should have been barred from ever serving in Congress on the basis of his disgraceful treatment of Max Cleland in the first place. I'm afraid, tho, I'm going to have to be satisfied with seeing Liddy Dole tossed out on her can.

in Philly two black panthers were just arrested for NOT allowing Whites into a voting facility...both were brandishing night sticks....

....now yall can bash me all you want about me posting the MO etc of the racist black panthers and both of their stooges that are members here on the grill...

but....

facts are facts....and once again ....Caustic was right.

Oh come on Dawg, Faux would never, ever stretch the "facts" to fit their agenda. Surely you are mistaken.

Actually, what's being reported is that repub "poll watchers" in Philadelphia are trying to intimidate voters. I mean, reported by reputable sources, not speculation about something a faux talkinghead heard about at the bar.

"hearsay"

Above is a Youtube video plainly showing the thug with a nightstick.

westdawg: From the Fox Website:
In Philadelphia, FOX News' Rick Leventhal went to a polling station downtown where "it was reported" two Black Panthers had stationed themselves at the door to a polling station and were intimidating voters. "One" held a nightstick.

The man carrying the nightstick was reportedly escorted away from the polling station by police before FOX News arrived around noon. Outside, FOX News found another Black Panther who said he was a certified observer. Police asked him and the FOX News crew to leave the polling station.

Leventhal returned after 2 p.m. and the man said he was a certified poll watcher.

Notice "it was reported"...not that the Fox crew saw it.
"The man carrying the nightstick was reportedly escorted away from the polling station by police before FOX News arrived"

Not two men Caustic,one man,according to Fox.

As usual,hyperbole runs amok amongst blind partisans.

facts are facts(according to Fox)....and once again ....Caustic was wrong!

=================================

fuck you westdawg....watch the damn video then you can "sorryup" ....

In Caustic's original post he said they were keeping white voters from voting. Any proof of that? Besides, if you feel intimidated approaching a polling area you can always get a police officer to escort you, all you have to do is request one.

It looks like Faux hyperbole to me.

Here's an Obama worker's take on what's happening.

From the article:

an Obama campaign volunteer who's been on the scene since 6:30 AM this morning tells me in a phone interview that there's been absolutely no intimidation of voters at all today. And a Pennsylvania spokesperson for Obama said the two men aren't in any way affiliated with the campaign.

Fox News' story is right here. It says one of two black panthers on the scene was "allegedly blocking the door," says another was "holding a nightstick." and adds that "the concern was that they were intimidating people who were trying to go inside to vote."

But Jacqueline Dischell, the Obama volunteer, tells me by phone that that's false.


Dischell confirms that there were in fact two black panthers guarding the polling place, a nursing home on Fairmont Avenue in north Philadelphia, earlier this morning.

But she says one was an officially designated poll watcher (it was not immediately clear which municipal office had designated him in that role), and the second was his friend. The second panther, who left two or three hours ago, was the one with the nightstick, she says.

Dischell says that earlier this morning a few men who identified themselves as being from the McCain campaign came and started taking pictures of the two panthers on their cell phones. She suggested that they seemed to be baiting the panthers, and that the designated watcher may have given one of them the finger in response to the picture taking.

The police came roughly an hour and a half later. She says she talked to the cops and told them there had been no incident. The police drove away without getting out of the car, she adds.

Some time later, a second, larger group of men whose affiliation couldn't be determined came with real cameras and started taking more pictures. Maybe 15 minutes later the cops returned. This time, they spoke to people on both sides, and told the panther not designated to watch the polls to leave, which he did without an argument.

"There was no fight, nothing," she says.

Fox News arrived on the scene at around that time and started interviewing people near the entrance. The building manager asked the Fox reporter to leave, she says, and he moved further from the entrance.

That's where things now stand. "There has been no fighting, no voter intimidation at all," she said.
