Is emanating from the Justice department:

Justice has also failed to enter the fray in Ohio. As many as 200,000 new voter registrations in that state are suspect, yet Democratic Secretary of State Jennifer Brunner is refusing to follow the 2002 Help America Vote Act that requires her to verify these registrations. The Ohio Republican Party sued Mrs. Brunner, but the Supreme Court said the GOP lacked standing. Justice does have standing — it is charged with upholding that law — but has ignored the fight. The Justice excuse is that it isn’t appropriate to file litigation so close to Election Day.

Yet that hasn’t stopped the Civil Rights Division this month from filing a lawsuit against Waller County, Texas, to correct alleged violations of the Voting Rights Act; a lawsuit against Vermont for failing to report accurately on overseas ballots; and an amicus brief in a case filed by a civil-rights group that is suing to stop the Georgia Secretary of State from complying with voter verification rules. Justice’s election suits always seem to side with liberal priorities.

It doesn’t help Justice’s credibility that attorneys charged with supervising voting issues are avowed Barack Obama supporters. According to Federal Election Commission data, James Walsh, an attorney in the Civil Rights Division, has donated at least $300 to Mr. Obama. His boss, Mark Kappelhoff, has given $2,250 — nearly the maximum. John Russ, also in Civil Rights, gave at least $600 to Mr. Obama.

Replacing curriculum focused on journalism or law for ’social justice’ is having a dramatic impact on the ability of several of democracy’s most important institutions to operate properly. I’m anxious for this terrible disease of ’social justice’ to finally be eradicated and put to rest like communism was in the last century.

Whats wrong with everyone getting a basic set of right enumerated in a constitution? Why is that so bad? Why is it so preferable to ideologically indoctrinate large swaths of our professional society into this absurd notion that the state should be given the power to remedy all social ill. Journalism and law are lousy with the fetid pungent stench of social justice and our democracy suffers as result of it.
