ANN ALTHOUSE: Character assassination attempted on 5th Circuit Judge Edith Jones. “This is truly scurrilous. I’m embarrassed for these organizations — so-called civil rights groups — who filed this complaint. . . . She gave a speech. You don’t have the text, but you’d like to destroy her. Why not just argue and debate about the ideas? Instead, you tell us about how you — who don’t like her legal decisions — felt an upswelling of emotion over whatever it was she said. Shame on you!”
