The following comes from a June 17 release from Life Legal Defense Foundation.
Today the United States Supreme Court has issued its opinion in the much-anticipated case, Susan B. Anthony List v. Driehaus. Justice Thomas delivered the opinion for a unanimous Court finding in favor of the Pro-Life group, Susan B. Anthony List (SBA). The court ruled that SBA and co-petitioner COAST (Coalition Opposed to Additional Spending and Taxes) have standing to challenge an Ohio election statute under which they had been threatened with prosecution for holding members of Congress responsible for their voting record.
The case began when SBA publicized the voting records of members of Congress who voted in favor of the Affordable Care Act (Obamacare), despite the taxpayer funded abortion that Obamacare put into place. SBA’s political opponents claimed that statements such as, “Shame on Steve Driehaus! Driehaus voted FOR taxpayer-funded abortion”, were false, and violated Ohio’s election laws.
Faced with the threat of prosecution, SBA challenged the law. The lower courts ruled that there was no current threat of prosecution, and thus SBA lacked standing to bring the challenge. Today the United States Supreme Court ruled in SBA’s favor, finding that on issue of “actual injury” required for standing, SBA had demonstrated a credible threat of enforcement of the law against them….

“Why do people hate lawyers so much?
Excerpted from Swimming in Deep Water
According to one commentator, our tendency toward arrogance, egotism, and narcissism might have something to do with it.

You must never hate anyone. That is a mortal sin, and violates the teaching of Jesus.

Hate MORTAL Sins. – – – When unrepented send Souls to Hell.
Chump Change in return for providing a Gaystapo Stalker List – such is the cheap price of enforcing ‘peoples justice’ in the Abomination:
“IRS Admits Wrongdoing, to Pay $50,000 in Leaking of Marriage Group’s Tax Returns
Two years after activists for same-sex marriage obtained the confidential tax return and donor list of a national group opposed to redefining marriage, the Internal Revenue Service has admitted wrongdoing and agreed to settle the resulting lawsuit.
The Daily Signal has learned that, under a consent judgment today, the IRS agreed to pay $50,000 in damages to the National Organization for Marriage as a result of the unlawful release of the confidential information to a gay rights group, the Human Rights Campaign, that is NOM’s chief political rival.
“Congress made the disclosure of confidential tax return information a serious matter for a reason,” NOM Chairman John D. Eastman told The Daily Signal. “We’re delighted that the IRS has now been held accountable for the illegal disclosure of our list of major donors from our tax return.”
