Discussion: Bar Association Angered By Haley Attack Ad: Legal Defense Is 'Constitutional Right'

Stand up to big government! …unless it’s accusing someone else of a violent crime, in which case: proceed big government. Proceed.

GOP Governor’s Association and Nikki: just think of a situation. What would happen if lawyers refused to defend Gov. Chris Christi of New Jersey?

“In response, Republican Governors Association spokesman Jon Thompson said the ad doesn’t target defense lawyers, rather it targets Sheheen for representing sex offenders and violent criminals.”

Maybe I’m a little hazy on American jurisprudence, but that would seem to make Mr. Sheheen a defense lawyer.

things are on a very dangerous trajectory… and i honestly expect civil violence within a few short years.

From a governor’s association no less. The GOP has become monstrous.
