‘Like Hell’

Posted on | December 4, 2012 | 6 Comments

John Hoge has shared his thoughts on today’s decision in the Virginia case of Walker v. Kimberlin, et al. When I met Mr. Hoge today for the first time, I told him that his services in documenting the legal proceedings in the case had earned him a special invitation to attend Blog Bash at CPAC. From a National Bloggers Club press release:

“We are profoundly discouraged that Aaron Walker has been denied the opportunity to prove his case,” said Ali A. Akbar, President of the National Bloggers Club and a target of the online harassment himself. “We’ll solicit donations and launch new efforts to protect free speech from thugs like Brett Kimberlin.”
“Stop shining light on Brett Kimberlin’s efforts to suppress free speech? Like hell.”

Read the whole thing.

    I am sorry about the outcome today, but I am also sorry I was not there with you all.

    That is why we have Courts of Appeal.

    The chain of events leads to an obvious conclusion. It would be interesting to look at these judges phone records, and see whether it was Holder himself, or one of his minions that told these judges to drop these cases because Bk is ‘one of our guys’.
