We've seen the Mayors of Boston and Chicago abuse their power to drive a lawful business out of their jurisdictions by threatening to withhold business permits because the founder and President support the definition of marriage as one man - one woman. When those threats generated an outcry even...
A federal judge has invalidated a New York City Metropolitan Transit Authority ban on a pro-Israel, anti-Jihad poster, because the standard the MTA applied -- whether an advertisement was "demeaning" to certain groups -- was unconstitutional because it discriminated on the basis of content of speech...
Via David Hogberg, who was in court today:Today both parties were back in court in front of Appellate Judge Nelson Rupp. This time, Walker was represented by attorney Reginald Bours.Kimberlin made a number of statements, but his basic argument boiled down to Walker wanted to...
Via Patterico (h/t Instapundit and readers): Aaron tells me by phone that the word is Judge Rupp signed the order, modifying the peace order against Aaron to let him speak publicly about Kimberlin. P.S. There is a very interesting aspect of Kimberlin’s response that I will be...
Last night Patterico reminded us Aaron Walker Still Silent: Outlaw judge Cornelius Vaughey’s ruling remains in effect. Aaron cannot truthfully blog about public figure Brett Kimberlin without violating a judge’s blatantly unconstitutional prior restraint of his speech. Just thought I’d mention that. Since it’s still true. While Walker...
Via Facebook (h/t iambasic in Tip Line): Now, sympathizers of convicted domestic terrorist Brett Kimberlin are harassing me, tearing me apart—and coming after my family.

Time Magazine wants attention, and it is getting it: I will fight to my dying breath to preserve the freedom of the depressed former titans of information to run "don't look at that car wreck on the side of the road" covers. And to engage in a bigger mommie...
But then again, not too few to mention. Dave Serchuk in Forbes, Congratulations! You Just Made Rush Limbaugh Sympathetic! (emphasis mine): Imagine this scenario: you are a lifelong liberal. You pretty much hate everything Rush Limbaugh stands for, and says. You are really glad that the times have...
From University of Rochester (NY) Professor Stephen E. Landsburg, a blisteringly refreshing view of Sandra Fluke, Rush to Judgment (via Althouse h/t Instapundit): But while Ms. Fluke herself deserves the same basic respect we owe to any human being, her position — which is what’s at issue here...
A common protest chant of the Occupy Wall Street crew and other radicals is "This is what democracy looks like!" - a trite, rhythmic expression of self-congratulation layered over an implication that they represent the true will of the people. Yes, these protests are examples of...
Sent to me by a reader as a potential "Video of the Day" candidate, but deserves its own post. As a youthful Zappa fan, I enjoyed this very much. The "I'm a conservative" statement comes at 3:15. I didn't realize until I graduated high school that...

I previously posted about Jamie Gorelick's hiring as a lobbyist for Sallie Mae, the student loan agency. After the debacles she created by raising the wall between law enforcement and the intelligence services, and at Fannie Mae, I thought she was doing quite well for...
