Moral Troubles

Our Attorney General is having a crisis of conscience.

"It was my obligation to defend this. I only have to argue the legality of it. I’m very grateful I do not have to argue the morality of it.” http://www.examiner-enterprise.com/articles/2007/12/04/news/state/news843.txt and http://www.kswo.com/Global/story.asp?S=7447219 Being the inquisitive young man that I am I ask our AG.....

Why the sudden crisis of conscience?

Oklahoma didn't see this new conviction when the AG's office threatened legal action against the Boy Scouts. Their crime? Their organization felt it would not be good allowing gay men in their ranks leading young boys. Our AG, seemed to think otherwise.

There was no moral outrage from the AG regarding legal reform. Our leaders tried to pass sensible reform but Brad (Trial Lawyer) Henry, with the AG holding his hand vetoed the measure. I smell a (Trial Lawyer) rat.

Where was the AG when prosecutors tried for years to put Gene Stipes behind bars for his criminal activities? Even now, any progress is no thanks to Edmondson's office. He has been strangely quiet over this entire affair. For the People's Prosecutor, this is disturbing.

Where was Mr. Edmondson's moral compass when a conservative political activist was arrested and jailed Nazi style? Why? Because he supports a Taxpayer Bill of Rights. Here are the articles http://www.legalnewsline.com/news/204728-edmondson-wants-activists-jailed-over-ballot-signatures and http://www.legalnewsline.com/news/204861-activist-expects-ham-sandwich-justice-from-okla.-ag

And why does the Attorney General have no trouble elevating one crime victim over another because of skin color or other Politically Correct criteria? FYI, I am disabled and am probably a "protected class" person and I find the whole idea of "hate crimes" sickening. Check out this op ed. http://newsok.com/article/3177547/1196906427

It appears Mr. Edmondson's scruples are selective at best.

Or are these "morals" reserved only for causes the Attorney General agrees with?

Hopefully the citizens of Oklahoma will wake up and see Mr. Edmondson's true colors and, come next election, send him packing.
