In reply to the discussion: DOJ sues Virginia over voter roll purge [View all]BumRushDaShow
(169,915 posts)5. I have this graphic in my sig line for a reason

There is a lot of "sincere ignorance" here when it comes to "Civics 101" and how the government is structured, what the ROLES of each Branch ARE, and how they inter-operate.
The continued drumbeat that blames the EXECUTIVE BRANCH for JUDICIAL BRANCH actions is tiring. It continues to promote Democrats going "extra-judicial" by "locking people up" and fuck the court rulings that unfortunately have intervened to "delay justice".
I saw the same bullshit hurled at Eric Holder when people here demanded that he unilaterally lock Shrub and his criminal cabal up "right fucking now!!!11!!!!!" and because he didn't, he should have been fired.

You have to admit that this DOJ has been slow to act in too many important cases.

Good. Our governor deserves to be sued for tampering with the election system for political gain.
