The human excrement at the ACLU went there because they knew old mothballs was a good LIB.

I don't think those wiretaps will catch many terrorists.

If Clintoon can claim to be the first "black president", then this traitor-judge can claim to be black as well...

This pig has been working for the Gubbermint nearly all her working life. Another clueless jerk bureaucrat. She also tried to subvert an affirmative action case ---->>>

It is interesting, and possibly significant, that Judge Taylor was involved in a judge-shopping controversy in connection with her effort to preserve race discrimination at the University of Michigan, where her husband is a regent:

Chief Judge Anna Diggs Taylor of the federal District Court in Detroit tried to take the suit against the law school away from Judge Bernard Freedman, who had been assigned it through a blind draw--and who was suspected of being skeptical about affirmative action--and consolidate it with a similar suit against the university's undergraduate admissions practice, which Judge Patrick Duggan was hearing. The chief judge dropped that effort after the judge hearing the law school complaint went public with a blistering opinion objecting to what he termed "the highly irregular" effort of the chief judge. Judge Duggan ruled in favor of the undergraduate racial preferences, while Judge Freedman ruled against the law school preferences.

"Nominated by Jimmy Carter on May 17, 1979 Now just doesn't that say it all?"

No of course not:
She also went to Bahnahd, don't you know?

"I thought 64/65 was the first year women were allowed in Yale?"

Absolutely not: I was an entering freshman in the fall of '65, and believe me, there was nary a female in sight!

Ah, except from up the street at Albertus Magnus, a girls' school that had a nickname I can't repeat on a family-oriented forum!
LOL!

How about Yale Law school? The judges bio indicated she graduated in 1957.

Looks as though she has never had a job and has lived off of the taxpayer for all her years. A shame that she would try and give the country to the terrorist by allowing them to communicate without fear of being found out. But then she is a Democrat and Democrats are anti-American pro terrorist scum.

"That is great...but I want to know how a judge in Michigan ended up with this case."

Because the ACLU shopped around to get one of their supporters as the judge in this case. The ACLU and other anti-American fascist organizations always pick the judge that will rule in their favor.

If you can point to some examples, that'd be great. I can't think of any off the top of my head, but it seems most cells are intercepted via spies/infiltrators, not wiretapping.
