The original report got it wrong when it published this report:

West Palm abortion protester faces federal lawsuit

Some call her "the defendant." I call her
Mary Susan Pine, the
victim.

August 22, 2010|By Jane Musgrave, The Palm Beach Post

For years, women seeking services at Presidential Women's Center have faced a gantlet of anti- abortion opponents.

They sing hymns. They wave signs. They hand out leaflets. They yell.

But one of the protesters, the leader of a group that has long targeted the West Palm Beach clinic, apparently went too far.

******

The "apparently went too far" was an editorial comment made by the Post without any of its reporters taking the time to investigate.

According to LifeNews.com, a site often quoted in this Review, tells us the Holder/Obama DOJ has had to drop its suit, after 18 months of legal nonsense, and pay the defendant a whopping $120,000.

In LifeNews' coverage, we have this report: Attorney General Eric Holder and the Department of Justice had sought to levy thousands of dollars in fines against the pro-life activist as well as seeking a permanent injunction banning her from continuing her faithful 20-year ministry outside an abortion clinic in West Palm Beach, Florida.

“But this scheme was thrown out of court and drew criticism from Judge Kenneth L. Ryskamp, who concluded that the government lacked evidence to prove not just one, but “all three elements of its FACE (Freedom of Access to Clinic Entrances Act) claim,” said Mathew Staver, Chairman of Liberty Counsel Action, whose organization is assisting Pine.

An appeals court ruled against the DOJ including the award of 120,000. The DOJ has decided to cut its loses and end the ordeal.

Previous loses since the beginning of 2012:

Supreme Court Jan 23 Hosanna/Tabor Lutheran v the EEOC, Obama loses 9-0

Supreme court Feb 26 Sackett v the EPA, Obama loses 9-0 .

March 23, Judge Amy Jackson, DC District Court, ruled against the EPA's decision to invalidate an established contract in the mining of coal in Mingo Logan v.EPA. The contract in question, was signed and action taken back in 2007.

Holder v Pine, the DOJ loses an appeals decision against a pro-life sidewalk counselor - April 2 and is forced to pay $120,000 to the defendant.

The Stated Nonsense from the Left now includes these Progressive goals:

July 2, 2008, Obama had this to say: "We cannot continue to rely only on our military in order to achieve the national security objectives that we've set. We've got to have a civilian national security force that's just as powerful, just as strong, just as well-funded."

MICHELLE OBAMA: "Barack knows that we are going to have to make sacrifices; we are going to have to change our conversation; we're going to have to change our traditions, our history; we're going to have to move into a different place as a nation."

“ . . . . . . they have become a generation of activists possessed with that most American of ideas – that people who love their country can change it.” -- Obama the Radical

On September 30, Van Jones told MSNBC "I think everybody should hold onto your seats. October is going to be the turning point when it comes to the progressive fight back."
