Olson Out (Ted Olson resigns as Solicitor General)

The Fourteenth Circuit ^ | June 24, 2004 | Fourteenth Circuit

[Steven W.]

you are RIGHT! God bless Ted Olson and the memory of dear Barbara

[vetvetdoug]

Yes, Ted has been honorable and is a class act from head to toe. GWB better have a good place for him in a couple of years like the SCOTUS.

[Texas Federalist]

Did anybody hear whether he is going back to Gibson Dunn in D.C.?

[Inspectorette]

I'm fortunate in that I lost no loved ones on 9/11, although we had a few anxious moments about my son-in-law, a Marine stationed at the Pentagon during that time. It was a couple of hours after the attack before we heard that he was OK.

But I felt that I knew Barbara, having seen her on so many talk shows. Always smiling, always good-humored and gracious, and a Freeper, too! It was like losing a friend.

[MEG33]

God bless you Ted Olson and may you have a great new future in anything you wish.

[alex]

"He's going into private practice. These government jobs don't pay these talented guys what they're worth."

This is good, we want to keep subdued.

[Endeavor]

Bummer.

He should be on the Supreme Court.

[Ragtime Cowgirl]

Sad day for America.

Godspeed, Sir.

Lord, we do miss her!

[barker]

He will be missed. I admired his courage when Barbara was murdered.

He took her death very hard. I remember him being on Fox talking about her. Heartbreaking.

Mr Olson, I wish you well and hope you find happiness again. Thank you for all you have done for us.
