department of justice

  • Question:-Obama says he and the Justice Department will no longer prosecute violations of Defense of Marriage Act?
    Since when does the President have the ability to order the Justice Department to NOT ENFORCE the law just because it doesn't fit his beliefs?

    So, let me get this right. When the next president comes in and says the 14th Amendment is not what he believes is right and orders the Justice Department to not prosecute states who violate it?

    What is right and wrong is completely up for debate. Laws are what makes things concrete. And then the President does something like this, he is setting a dangerous precedent. Thoughts?

    Answer:-Hmmmm - - - Obama saying not to spend resources to persecute er ah prosecute people for the act of marriage, BAD< way BAD -- -
    Cheney/Bush demanding that people be tortured, their phones and computers 'tapped,' that people be held in indefinite captivity without charges, GOOD--

    This is truly a strange country. ALL PRESIDENTS throughout history have the duty to give their Attorney General directions as to what are priorities in the way of justice from John Adams having to deal with French nationals during the early days of the French Revolution through how to deal with runaway 'slaves' to the the 'threat of anarchist and socialist' at the time of World War One and so on and so on.

    Al that President Obama has said, in essence, is that rsources are best spent elsewhere, that it is best to turn a blind eye when someone files a lawsuit against their neighbor for living in sin in violation of the 'law' that says they are not a couple etc and etc.

  • Question:-Does the Justice Department have to appeal all lawsuits which go against the government?
    As most of us probably know, a judge issued an injunction against "Don't Ask, Don't Tell." Obama's administration claims that they "have no choice" and that the US Justice Department "must" appeal. I think they're lying, but I need to know if there have ever been any instances in our history when the Justice Department did not appeal a ruling. Thanks!

    Answer:-Being the representative of the "defendant" (US government), the Justice Dept. is obligated to appeal rulings, especially one where, although it's disagreeable, even to the President, the authority of the Executive branch, over the military is being questioned. It has to be appealed.
  • Question:-Does the Justice Department have any choice in prosecuting Bush?
    The Justice Department is charged with prosecuting anyone who violates the law - period. It's not the president's personal attorney - that's the Office of Legal Counsel. Since it's clear from legal precedent (see, for example, Ronnie Reagan's Justice Department prosecuting Texas lawmen for violating federal law) that waterboarding is illegal, how can the Justice Department not prosecute Bush?

    Answer:-Patience, daddy's little criminal will be prosecuted in due time.
  • Question:-Besides Obama who else has used the Justice Department to prevent states from enforcing federal law?
    Obama is suing states in an effort to prevent them from simply enforcing federal law that he has chosen not to enforce.

    The framers never intended the Justice Department to be used in a manner to put the rights of illegals over the rights of legal residents of this country.

    President Obama is not reforming immigration; he is trying to stop states from enforcing and developing effective immigration laws. With the estimated number of illegal aliens in the United States ranging from 11.5 million to 12.5 million, South Carolina, Alabama, and Arizona are trying to combat the problem infecting their states.

    Answer:-Clinton (U.S. v. Virginia)
    Clinton (U.S. v. Tennessee)
    Clinton (U.S. v. Alaska)
    Reagan (U.S. v. Maine)
    Kennedy (U.S. v. Oregon)

    Basically, type "U.S. v. *any state*" Into google and you'll see that they've been sued by the Federal Government over something at some point in time.
  • Question:-Should the USA force The Justice Department into action?
    Should the USA just let the Justice Department take over operations in the Middle East?
    Aren't they the ones that have tied the Defense Departments hands when it comes to running operations.
    If this isn't the case, why is the pentagon taking orders from the justice department?
    So what the hell, let the FBI agents go to the Middle East and use their skill to avoid IEDs', sniper fire, and all of the other wonderful adventures that the US military has had to contend with over the past decade.

    Answer:-ANYONE who controls the war effort other than the military will lose the war. It happened in Vietnam when Congress decided to run it.
  • Question:-If the Justice Department believes a law is unconstitutional.......Are they required to defend it?
    The legal answer is, NO, they are not required to defend it.




    Yet they seem to THINK they are.
    Those bullsh*tters keep insisting,
    "it is the legal responsibility of the Justice Department to defend existing law."

    No, it's not!
    If they believe a law is unconstitutional, they are not obligated to defend it.

    So why does everyone, (including the Justice Department themselves), seem to think they are required to defend existing law?
    There have been precedents set where the Justice Department has refused to defend existing law.
    But such occurrences are very rare.
    Why are they so rare?

    Answer:-No, because what is constitutional to one may not be constitutional to the other. The Justice Department should not defend laws which are country to human rights, but unfortunately Obama is trying to be all things to all people

    Hope this helps
  • Question:-Do you believe the Justice Department's shutting down of Megaupload was an act of pure evil?
    I believe the members of the Justice Department are evil people who go through life seeking opportunities to do harm.
    People who side with the Justice Department = EVIL.
    People who side with Megaupload = RIGHTEOUS.

    Answer:-
  • Question:-Why do you think the Justice Department chose to support the DOM with feelings instead of facts?
    According to the Justice Department, same sex partnerships are akin to incest and molestation. Why does a country based on the freedom for all have a government that is so dilatory in its action against overt unconstitutionality within its own ranks i.e. the Attorney General's Office.

    Answer:-You have to remember that the Republicans PACKED the Justice Department for the last eight years with those of the same political ideation. Obama has been in office now for almost six months but the Justice Department still is over 3/4's hardline Republican. Obama is running into political sabotage from every department and agency that the Republicans have packed for the last 8 years. But, he refuses to blame the Republicans, he has class.

    I am a former Republican(1971-2003) Independent.
  • Question:-why do Cons keep complaining about the justice department doing its job by suing AZ?
    If the courts say the Immigration Law is Unconstitutional then the Justice department is right, but if its found Constitutional then the law will stand and AZ is right!

    Whats there to be afraid of? COULD IT BE THAT CONS KNOW THE LAW WILL GET STRUCK DOWN LIKE A WHORE BY HER 1970's STYLE PIMP?

    The question should be what are LIBERALS AND THE PRESIDENT AFRAID OF?

    AMERICANS ARE AFRAID OF BEING RAPED, MURDERED, KIDNAPPED ANOTHER TERRORIST ATTACK (DUH, DO YOU THINK AL QEADA IS NOT HEARING OUR MF PRESIDENT AND THE ICE OFFICIAL WHO SAID IF FROM AZ HE WOULD NOT PROSECUTE!)

    If this solid law gets "struck down like a whore by her 1970's style pimp", I never wish evil on others, but I would make an exception and wish it on all Americans who don't support this law, they deserve it in my mind, and the judges that ruled to strike it down.
  • Question:-Why does the justice department hate white folks now?
    Holder, the token head of the alleged justice department refuses to take action onb hate crimes against whites. Time to lock and load folks, lock and load.

    Answer:-They deny that they are showing any bias claiming they judge each case by its merits. At least they are going to investigate it. We'll see how far that goes.
