DOJ refuses to investigate ACORN

And has ruled that ACORN may receive federal funding. From Powerline:

So, the New Black Panthers get a pass on voter intimidation. The ACORN fraudsters get a pass on tax fraud and God knows what all. Members of Congress and administration appointees need not bother with tax compliance, and can dance around any number of improprieties.

But, defend the country by engaging in aggressive interrogation of terrorist murderers using methods specifically approved by the DOJ under the previous administration? Watch out. Eric Holder and his DOJ -- now so heavily populated with fancy lawyers who, in private practice, gave those same terrorist murderers free legal services -- will investigate you relentlessly.

Respect for the law is not something valued by this administration's DOJ, much less by its "community organizers." I predict we'll see worse on this front before we see better.
