9. I do DP work in a neighboring state.
I know one of his attorneys. He's a wonderful guy and a great attorney, but there is only so much we can do in many of these cases because of the laws.

Newt Gingrich should pay a huge price for the damage he and the republican congress did by passing AEDPA in 1996. Clinton was running for re-election and tried to get away with signing it into law (just so he could look "tough on crime")but attached a signing statement. Didn't work and I'll never forgive him for that deed. He knew better when he signed it, that's why he attached the signing statement. It's all about politics.
