Ted Olson, husband of the late BARBARA OLSON who perished in the 09/11/2001 tragedy ...she was a passenger on a plane that crashed into the Pentagon ...

He has now remarried..I'm surprised he took such a ‘political case’ smh

Could it be more like he’s a lawyer and lawyers are paid to do their clients bidding? So he’s just doing what he’s paid to do!

He’s a lawyer...

His case is embarrassingly dopey.

He hurts his own reputation.

Not surprised. Ted hangs out with the cool lawyer crowd. Ted was big defender of gay marriage against those troglodyte Christians

If I was a lawyer, I wouldn't take this case.

Forgetting his politics.......if they were truly in love she would be happy that he is loved by his wife. All couples want their spouses to be loved & cared for should they pass.

It’s what I would wish for my husband.

“Acosta has denied “placing his hands” on the young woman as administration officials claim”

Who are you going to believe: Acosta or your lying eyes?

After his wonderful wife Barbara Olsen went down on a highjacked plane on 9/11/01, he married a hippy b-word who has turned him into a raging liberal in all ways possible

“His 4th wife must have a GAY CHILD because Ted is now all about GAY EVERYTHING!!”

Yup, near as I can tell he is now the Sodomy Solicitor. He has been on the wrong side of every legal issue since Barbara died.

Ted Olsen argued in favor of overturning ‘gay marriage’ amendments before the SC. I think he was on the team that had all the state marriage amendments overturned.

He went south after 9/11. Seriously. Teamed up with ALL Gore lawyer David Boise to ask SCOTUS to re-define marriage.

Not good.
