Of course, this is the reasoning we get all the time from right-wingers who are preparing to invade our rights and who excuse intrusions of the government into our lives:
"If you didn't do anything wrong then you have nothing to worry about."
Which leads me to ask why Republican Secretary of State Scott Gessler, he of our most recent voter suppression attempts in Colorado and an almost surely made-up "death threat", has hired a team of lawyers to protect him from something he didn't do:
Gessler has hired a team of lawyers headed by high-profile defense attorney David Lane to represent him before the Ethics Commission and in the criminal case on the same matter launched by Denver District Attorney Mitch Morrissey.
Gessler's attorneys brought at least four motions to dismiss over two hours of back and forth at yesterday's hearing. Yet the facts under consideration have been a matter of public record for nearly four months and they were not contested yesterday by Gessler's attorneys.
Now, to use Republican logic, does that sound like someone who did nothing wrong? |
