But his commenters are sure a bunch of nasty freepers.

Please do address the three people on the same calendar who didn't get dismissals in the interest of justice from the United States Attorney. Understand I'm not angry with Sullivan, or his lawyers. I'm angry with the Department of Justice and its lawyers, and well before that, with Congress.

Stories like these are beginning to corrupt my soul. I only half-joke that if I ever have children, I'll raise them to be sociopaths. Playing by the rules isn't a chump's position. Better to be shameless and ruthless if you want to make it big in America. Thanks for the link.
