CHICAGO President Obama has made a major mistake and put Americas families at risk by selecting David Ogden to become Deputy Attorney General, says Fidelis, a pro-family organization.
David Ogden is a hired gun from Playboy and ACLU. He cant run from his long record of opposing common sense laws protecting families, women, and children. The United States Senate has a responsibility to the American people to insure that Mr. Ogdens full record is fully reviewed before any vote on his nomination said Brian Burch, President of Fidelis.
Ogdens record is nothing short of obscene. He has represented Playboy Enterprises in multiple cases, Penthouse Magazine, the ACLU, and the largest distributor of hard-core pornography videos. He has opposed filters on library computers protecting children from Internet smut, and successfully defended the right of pornographers to produce material with underage children.
David Ogden has collected checks from Playboy and Penthouse to fight any attempts to establish filters on federally-funded public libraries. Ogden even sued the federal government in an attempt to publish Braille versions of Playboy magazine at taxpayer expense, of course, said Burch.
As a lawyer in private practice, Ogden has argued for an unlimited abortion license, gays in the military, and has urged courts to treat traditional definitions of marriage as a social prejudice.
A vast majority of Americans support parental notification before a minors abortion and protecting kids from Internet pornography in our libraries, continued Burch. Yet David Ogden has fought tooth and nail against these common sense laws protecting our children from harm. At a time when Americas families are under increasing assault, Mr. Ogden is a dangerous choice for a position whose responsibilities include the enforcement of our nations laws.

I’ve noticed that myself.
And the downward spiral continues unabated.

From an email I got today.
"President Obama has nominated David Ogden to a high-level position in his sub-cabinet -- not a position in agriculture or defense but the number two position at the Department of Justice, the Department charged with prosecuting adult and child pornography violations. The porn industry is so excited by the prospect of having one of their allies in this key position that they have not been able to contain themselves. XBiz, a leading 'adult' newswire, called Ogden a 'strong pick,' and porn attorney Colin Hardacre of Los Angeles said Ogden's nomination is 'a good sign for the adult industry.' ..."

Personal note:
Read this carefully and join with me in calling your U.S. Senator. We must do our best to stop this nomination now. If we do nothing, we will have no one else to blame other than ourselves for not doing our part when we could have.
The implications of this pornography attorney being placed as the second in command at the U.S. Justice Department are more than I can possibly imagine, but what I can imagine is enough to make me fear for children and their innocence and for their protection and the further "pornification of America"!
Remember, the vote on David Ogden is this Thursday in the Judiciary Committee. Call your U.S. Senator, 202-224-3121.
