[Political Junkie Too]

He's not weeping because some gays said mean things about him. He's weeping because one of the most respected organizations in his field is repeating partisan slanders against him after he spent a career building a reputation of fairness and excellence for himself.

I think it would jar anyone's resolve to be the target of a political opposition that is willing to say and do anything to win, including destroying the reputation of good people with unprovable slanders and libels just to get their way.

Corrupted or not, the ABA is there, it has influence over his career, and I'd bet they wouldn't have taken this stand if he weren't being appointed to the Ninth Circuit.

It's disheartening to witness one's life's work being trashed by the most influential body in one's career, knowing that it's not about him and that he's being used as a proxy for attacking President Trump.

I agree, HOWEVER, it was jarring to see the man cry over this.....how did he NOT KNOW the ABA is CORRUPT!! I KNOW IT!
