29. This lawsuit was a complete farce and had no merit

I have been laughing at the pleadings in this case for a long time. See https://upload.democraticunderground.com/100210544462 The briefs in this case filed by the plaintiffs were so bad that they were funny.

For example, the idiot attorney who filed this silly case claimed that donors were consumers under the DC consumer protection law.

I will miss laughing at the pleadings and briefs in this case
